I will stay in rf2 if there is +10 driver grids (for me, not all
leagues are possible for me because of poor timezone) also in
the future. I understand TechG.Though I also think rf2 still
deserves a chance. We are doing good atm and there are new
members still joining.

Come on Chris,you must be well off living where u do,you can
afford 60 bucks,it"s worth it ;D

Lol, well its totally not about the money, its about time. I
don't have time to put into 2 sims, with all the practice, setup
work, etc that goes with it to be competitive. So, if I get
pCars 2 now, I will probably never open rf2 again :o.
rf2 has been around a long time and has a loyal following, but
imho that alone will not be enough for the new developer to make
it work. Pretty much everyone I know that switched to rf2 in
the past year will switch to pCars 2, meaning they will not be
buying future DLCs, etc.
There are a load of good leagues that will be running pCars 2,
but I too prefer the rf2 league scene on the whole. Plus there
are loads and loads of add ons that will pop up, that just add
to the cool factor of the game. For example they had this very
cool setup data base site
HTML http://projectcarssetups.eu/#/bycar,<br
/>which became a great resource to get a quick setup ( I
personally posted a lot of my setups their). So it just helps to
make the sim racing experience a lot better for people who
either don't enjoy setups or didn't have the time.
They are also looking to add driver swap functionality, so
honestly if I like the FFB they will get all of my sim time
because the game has way more to offer than rf2 will ever have
and it will be played by a lot more people, so bigger grids,
more multi-class races, etc.
What the rf2 crowd generally seem to not realize is just because
they take the 'realism' seriously this is still a game and
people who play it want to have fun and, if your in a league,
you want to be competitive. rF2 is generally a very unwelcoming
sim and I almost ditched it after my first couple of attempts.
I will be sad if it comes to this but like I said the developers
are moving to slowly given what's happening around them and
their just isn't enough detail or solidity to the time line for
their updates. As much as the 'real' sim racer slagged off
pCars1, it was actually a very good game, just missing the FFB
and physics, kinda important for a sim. The sad part is that
most of the other 'real' sims are still not even up to pCars 1
standards in all other aspects and that game is now 2 1/2 years
old. It really is just not good enough, so I fear rf2 will stay
in its niche, with less and less leagues, smaller and smaller
grids, and leaving us all to wonder why a sim with the best FFB,
tire model and physics has only a had full of people playing it.
SteamCharts: Number of Players
A.v Last 30 days Peak Past Year
PCars 1 800 2,900
PCars 2 3,000 6,700
rF2 324 1,400

Chris,are those numbers including people on Xbox and Playstation
playing Pcars?,if it is,that"s not a fair comparison since RF2
was never released on anything other than PC.I have faith in
Studio 397,I think you will see some of the Iracing guys coming
over to RF2 once they release all the GT3 cars.Pcars 2 has some
bugs to fix as far as multiplayer goes,it"s a huge improvement
over Pcars 1 but still prefer RF2 for league racing.

ISI stated on numerous occasions that the vast majority of rF2
drivers were offline players. I never understood the thought
behind driving aginst AI when there was a world of real drivers
to pit yourself against. But to each their own I suppose.
With regard to online numbers rF2 has NEVER had very good online
numbers. Pickup racing in rF2 is abysmal. Most online servers
are either locked or empty on all but league race days. If there
are drivers on a server most often they only are trying to
practice for their league race. I have run into many people who
are not interested in running pickup or even practice races.
This includes members of our own league. rF2 is a league's
paradise, but for any other more casual online mode it sucks.

Finally i you want to play as a few have it now you can go here
a fun test server ;D
PW is tintop easy to remember ;D
First in should be able to set session if not exit go back to
lobby should rotate it and the you will be able to change
session settings,
Need to select Dedi Server on search filter and show servers
with no players to find it :)
Think there are few bugs in server app still
Also have never set setup the configs in the server config file
and rotation configs in the .json file one uses the other to set
up
So winging it a bit as i play with copying other users posted
setting and use in mine ;D
But it works and is v smooth ;D
Set your pitting to manual too in you in game menu so you can
drive out of pit not on auto pit.
Sometimes it Will be auto pit on first entry to server as it is
default track and car just exit re enter lobby looking into that
:)
if you only one in there you can exit then go back in change
track car time to restart on different settings not seen how to
advance a session will look into that too :)
replay can be saved at end of race only it seems get the option
at end :)

Simon, bless his heart, gifted me Project Cars 2 on steam. I
have spent all day today playing, and tweaking things to my
liking. If you are on the fence about buying Pcars 2, I highly
suggest it. They did a really good job with it. FFB is good
after adding the Jack Spade custom ffb files. Graphics blew my
mind, and continue to do so.
I'm really liking Pcars 2! Thank you again Simon!!!
