I know I said I'm going to set up a survey. But I've been swamped at work the last few weeks and next to Bloodborne I didn't find any time.
I'm concidering joining an existing league like the one above (that one seems pretty dead though).
Actually we've just started we have people registering and participating. We could also do an exclusive NeoGAF Series.

Le cab is watching you, be careful

Sorry, I'm American so please forgive me
Is it the lower resolution, or lower frame rate that sold you on the Xbone version?

Not really any need for console wars chap.
No for me it was the rumble triggers & friends otherwise the pc version would of been for me.
Touchy?
The NA pre-load will probably go up the day before release, that's how it's looking for us in the UK.

Is it the lower frame rate, lower resolution, or ghosting that sold you on the PS4 version? In all seriousness, both console versions are going to have concessions to run this game in comparison to PC. If you are concerned about running the best graphics then going for a console version is doing it wrong.

It doesn't look like it for North America. We usually get the preorder option weeks before we can preload. Today was the last day the store updates before the game comes out next Tuesday and we still don't have the option to preorder.
This happened with Dark Souls II recently as well. We just have to wait until the day of release and hope they put it up at midnight.
Searching for Project Cars on NA PSN yields 0 results.

Or a pre-order period. Would really like to know for certain if everything is the same for the digital edition here so I'll know whether or not to cancel my Amazon order.
Ahh right ok. That sucks then. Hopefully a pre load will go up before the weekend for you guys.
Yeah, ghosting >>> Lower framerate and res ( and stuttering ).
Sold!Anyway, devs said there will be toggle option for ghosting.
OK, it took me like 6h to adjust the steering more or less to what im used to to play on a DS.
Still the feedback when loosing controll is very poor :/
From the other hand even the Clio cup is tons of fun !
Edit:
- loading times are pretty long even on time trial
- no pit crew , just the guy stoping you

The pit crew are coming. They will be patched at a later date. They had it for a while in the WMD Builds but it was causing too many issues so they moved them past the release date since it's just cosmetic stuff.
By control scheme you mean the button layout is somehow different?...or you mean the controller itself?...are we really going to argue which version of a supposed hardcore racing controls better with a CONTROLLER? (wheel much?)
No console wars, serious question..I replied to someone that said the Xbone version was somehow looking like the better option
..I was asking what made that the case...
Fixed that for you...
Anyway, you mean the "ghosting" that is actually a temporal AA method that the developers actually seem to prefer but are going to give a slider in the settings menu to turn off?
Woof, make a joke around here and you really see which console people prefer...lol

Looks horrible. Why can't games do rain? They do standing water fine, spray from wheels fine, but the actual rain? Always looks stupid. At least we aren't getting Driveclub warp speed though.
Oh wow didn't see that in car shot... How did that pass testing? Who thinks rain looks like shattered safety glass? And how does the car stay magically dry, then magically wet from in car with some strange bubble water (except for the sun roof, which keeps its outside view magic)?
You mean the actual rain or the stuff on the camera lens?
I think the actual rain looks great. That how super heavy rain looks like when I look out the window.
Now if only the guy could turn on his wipers
Also QA doesn't have anything to do with how the rain look on a windscreen...
Cars are not dry...
People really need to stop judging a game by a shitty youtube video.
? Don't get it.

Yeah. I was just making a joke as well. Sorry if it came off wrong. I think it looks pretty fantastic on all platforms with the PC as the obvious "master race" with the highest resolution, frame rate, etc. I only noticed this ghosting issue after it was pointed out but feel it won't be noticed while playing. I'll trust the developers judgement before YouTube video analysis any day. Any racing game fan should be looking forward to this game in any platform. The only losers here are those stuck waiting for the wii u version.

you can turn on wipers?
Of course... Wipers and headlights. You're not supposed to leave the windshield like that lol.

my bad didn't realize there was a button for it
Heh no worry. I think they are both on the d-pad on the console.

Have you driven in rain with a light source in front of you (e.g. the sun?).
I don't think it looks bad at all. Though I question the lack of windshield wipers...

The one horrible thing about not being able to preorder the PSN digital version as it's the only way (as far as I can tell) to get the limited edition content in the US. So if we can't preorder we have to make a decision. Do we want the preorder bonus or the limited edition bonus, or the XB1 version (which can be preordered to get both). I personally am not a fan of being forced into these choices when there doesn't seem to be any reason for it.

One of the extra effects on PS4 (temporal AA) has a downside!!! The digital foundry article, and thread, will be a classic.
I live in a sub tropical climate. Just a few days ago we had rain so hard the streets were flooding within 10mins. Trust me, this rain looks nothing like it should. You can see instantly how its just a 2D effect placed over the camera. The rain needs to fall from the sky, not just jump in from the edge of the screen, it looks all wrong.
Then there is the rain on the windshield which has special powers. Not only does it have super surface tension but also has some kind of energy shield that deflects wind. And the top of cars, they don't just deflect rain but make it disappear totally (because like the spoon, there is no rain).
Then there is the water that gets on the camera. It seems the windshield rain stole all of its surface tension and this rain lays flat smeared across the surface.
Physics and reality wants a word with SMS.

Project CARS |OT| 80.000 developers can't be wrong
Project CARS |OT| 74 cars and none of them are Skylines
Project CARS |OT| #PROJECTCARS
Yes i'm bored. I want to read reviews but i have to wait. I want to enjoy my break from work (coincidence i swear) and play but stupid steam won't let me.
I don't think i anticipated a game this much since GT5 in 2010. Must be bad for the crowd funders though, some of them might even be already tired from the game. I'm fresh, i have no idea how the handling will feel, so i really wanna try.

Its much nicer from in car. The rain doesn't actually exist in that view (actually it might but you cant see it) which makes things much nicer looking. And with the wipers going you don't get to see how their windshield looks when fully wet. I could really live with that however for more serous racing ill be using another view which has the rain effect.
The lightening though.. I hope they can fix the way it lights up the spray. Looks very bad.
I am just being critical though, can't wait to play this.
Nothing beats Driveclub's windshield rain effects for sure but whatever.. That's the kind of sacrifice I'm willing to make to get all the other stuff (and fps) that pcars has.

I live in the american Midwest and have had a 30 minute commute (each way) for the better part of the last 6 years. I've driven in a lot of rain.
It comes in many shapes and sizes, friend.

For the record, the last thing people will complain about this game are the graphics. This is one of those instances where only Gaf and Digital Foundry are worried. Seriously, judging by the number of posts in this thread related to graphics x the number of posts related to the game itself, it's pretty clear that even people who are following the game closely don't really understand what this game is about.
I still have a feeling it's gonna score a 9 on Eurogamer and pretty much 80-90% on every major outlet. SMS was pretty careful on addressing the big things people usually complain about racing games. The thing about having 80.000 people betatesting for you is that it's almost impossible to have bone headed decisions in a game like this one.

I just checked the Steam page for this game and it says it unlocks tomorrow around 6-7 PM Eastern. No idea if that's new info or not
a post on their Playfire forums from earlier today said they were waiting on the codes to be given to them so they can start sending them out...when that will be is anyone's guess

New article. This is awesome. Formula A Barcelona event in Project Cars while F1 races in Barcelona. Same thing on the Monaco Week. Great stuff that they are doing. They understand how much the hardcore crowd spends in time trial and are rewarding us properly.

Hmmm....
The windshield spray from other cars is indeed pretty lame compared to reality. But oh well!
