Relatedly, the PPDLC icon is on the PS4 World Map...

PS4 owner: "Permission to come aboard?"
Sony/PD: "Certainly not. Go buy a PS5, you peasant".

The F3500a has two engine swaps - Firstly the Espace engine for 1.1m and secondly the V8 from the F3500B for 600k.

So we can have it as a V10, an actual Williams F1 V10.

Just picking the 93 season at random, we can have a Williams/Tyrell/Jordan V10, Benetton/McLaren V8, Ferrari/Lola V12. The engines are not exactly right but close enough & I'm pretty sure the liveries will be available if not already done.

New extra Audi menu says I don’t have the TTS ‘14 but I do. Anyone else same weird “problem”?

Does yours have an engine swap (I'm not even sure there is one for the TTS though)? Just a hunch that it may not count if swapped.

Nope. Never even drove it. I bought another one and it unlocked the dumb extra menu. It’s of zero consequence, the reward for that menu is nothing, just an odd apparent glitch for me. I don’t even care but my 11-year-old is a completionist and wants everything checked off in the game 🤣

Had to make a full grid of them. The sound of the fly bys.

Ferrari 296 GR.3 has limited wheel rotation set to 360 only via interior cockpit. Very jarring. Thankfully I race on bumper cam only when competitive online but for my free play races I always use a cockpit cam for fun. Shame. Hoping this is fixed in a patch? Was this on purpose? I’m surprised that went through testing and was missed if not…

From the Update Notice:

5. Multiplayer

– We have added a "Room ID" setting to the Lobby.
– We have added an "Enter Room ID" option to the room selection screen in the Lobby.
– We have added a "Private" option to the Room Privacy settings in the Lobby; private rooms can only be accessed by entering the Room ID on the room selection screen.
– We have changed the default search Region on the room selection screen to "Same Region."
– We have added the following options to Race Settings: Minimum Number of Pit Stops, and Required Tire Type Change.
　- We have added "Disabled" to the Slipstream Strength settings;
　- We have added the following filters to the Regulation Settings:
　　・Year (Lower Limit)
　　・Year (Upper Limit)
　　・Drivetrain
　　・Aspiration

　- Pressing the triangle button on the Room screen now displays the specs of all cars entered.

While good, I have a feeling these aren't the improvements to online racing that everybody was hoping for.

Now, if only PD would add those race settings (along with allowed/required tire types) to Custom Races. That would be something.

Disapointed by the new tracks circuit experience, they are super easy to gold. I completed everything at first try, even 2s under the required time at Yas Marina.

The new tracks are great though.

Max Verstappen's Ferrari is now available!

This community is amazing!

I had some problems with Yas Marina full.
But I'm average Dualsense user.

Didn't have the time for GV @ Canada.

Here is my stream, in second part of video is Yas Marina CE:

They broke the lobby search.

I only get maximum of 8 different lobbies available no matter what type of room mode I search.

All on one page. No more pages.

If I search by track, I get more rooms showing, but they are all on one page.

No matter if I search on my region or all regions.

Only one page of results.

Still no Reversed Grids for some odd reason, racing in public lobbies is repetitive and boring without it...

 

[Boxout]

Did they really show Gilles Villeneuve having a full day to night transition in the new intro, but in game you actually can't have it?

 

[RCKakashi14]

Had a blast at CGV with the Red Bull X2014 Standard.

Does the chicane at Wall of Champions really have massive sausage kerbs? I remember watching an F1 qualifying and it was somewhat flat.

 

[mastergracie]

How does the prize money look in the Power Pack? Is PD still stingy? Are there car prizes or championship winner money? Thanks.

I'm thinking about buying the DLC, but for 30 EUR, it has to be worth my money.

you should read the thread about the power pack, and may be ask there (but I gave some infos just a moment ago)

So far the data logger is my fav new feature, very easy to use, although I wish you could show the actual replay in one of the windows for a visual reference. This will be really useful for online time trials.

Also you can load your old replays which is nice, so it's use is not restricted to 1.65 replays onwards.

 

[Mike1990]

I've noticed that you can buy with your own money - £5 Million Credits separately too. Used to be just £2 Million IIRC.

 

[ShiftingGears]

They really should've had two sort courses for Abu Dhabi added as well, or at least one

Seems to, Russells 2025 pole lap has big sausage kerbs.

 

[Ohayo]

Have they fixed Avantime widebody bug?

 

[i386]

The f3500-b with the engine swap (V12 of course ) is a fun drive
(I spun a couple of times on Yas Marina with that car hitting the curbs)

 

[snowman_pr]

Well, 15 minutes in and already spent 17,292,724 credits on all cars only…

Yeah…

 

[A_Higher_Place]

CGV in the AMG GT3 for the circuit experience was unexpected. What. An. Experience. So cool to rip around a track that I've cycled in my favourite GT3. The details area amazing.

Picture from last summer. Gotta find it in game now 😁

And ? Aren't they allowed to give their impressions ? I am sure other VR users are curious to know.
