The biggest issue here is the FOV they have, ideally FOV should be adjustable and set to the correct value based on your screen size and distance from the screen.
And what setup did you have loaded for the cars in Pc2.
I mean, if that's the staple at which we choose what games are a good simulator, than most any of the games in this discussion are fine driving games. Whether that's Forza, GTS, Pcars or AC. As far as where they sit on the scale, Forza and GTS can be used interchangeably, while they sit noticeably behind games like Pcars and AC
I'm sure you'd be able to explain what was wrong?
That's the thing, gamey isn't a good word to describe anything that is going on, with any of these games. None of them are going to simulate things the exact same way, and often are having certain aspects that are done better than the competitor as well as things that they do worse.
Which still doesn't make it a physics issue, and there will always be tunes that will make a car work better than it does out of the gate. That's why people use multiple different ones for multiple different tracks - To get the most out of every car and track. Had they put more effort on the pad forefront from the get go, that may have eliminated a lot of my concerns, though.
With Pc2 take any of the lower power roadcars, change the setup to OEM, drop the tyre pressure by around 4 psi each, and then enjoy.
Assetto is the only real sim in ps4 n xbox get a wheel too. Then gt sport, Pcars 2.
Yeah, no.
No, that's not it at all. it may very well have a slight tendency towards oversteer on some cars, but it's really not any more gamey than GTS is. Drifting around every turn is in fact the worst way to play it, because you'd lose every single race, something that can't be said for most arcade games.
That's a pretty inaccurate opinion of the game.
The good thing is that they allow you to change the deadzones with a pad. That helps out so much, and it's the first tip I recommend to anyone that is new. It makes more difference in Forza Motorsport than in Forza Horizon, in my opinion.
I don't have much experience with racing at full throttle on the track in the types of cars you see in these game, but have a basic understanding, mostly. I think they're both hit and miss, but enjoyable enough in the way the replicate reality in their specific ways.
This is where it gets interesting to me, because I find it fairly easy to keep the rear in check at all times, even in the rain. That's likely because I spent the time to adjust from game to game. I feel it's more about adjusting to the differences in the way these games go about things, and that pad input optimization, than labeling these two extremely comparable games as inaccurate/accurate. They're placement on the "sim" spectrum is extremely comparable, with both doing things differently, but offering a good dose of reality.
Allows what? Drifting? I'm not so sure I understand. Drifting is not something that's exclusive to video games only..
I'm not so sure I understand what your meaning with this. You'd have to elaborate on conditions.
That's one thing I always feel is lacking in Forza, the initial default tuning set-ups on many cars. They just don't make sense to me, and I feel likely lead to a lot of undesirable results. It's not all about setup though, as player skill has as big a part, if not bigger part, of the equation. As does how well you're able to adapt to the things it does differently between other games.
