Max difficulty for Authentic mode roughly equal pace of top 10% online.

Photo Mode spotted in menu.

I’m probably not within the top 10%. But being ble to adjust difficulty in classic mode, should be able to play it in a similar way, try to avoid using the restart button.

Just spotted it costs £9.50 extra for either edition on console than PC at Xbox store, or maybe that's both PC and Xbox combo if anyone knows why it's different?

Was looking into how much to order with Lebara mobile rewards (they do really cheap sim cards) currently offering 8% off Xbox store vouchers if it helps anyone who buys via Microsoft...

I went ahead and pre-ordered the year one bundle today.

As much as I liked project cars, I’ll be waiting. Getting tired of preordering games. I think it raises expectations too much.

 

[Fernando_DSF]

All i hope is that the game is actually playable with a controller and not a snap oversteer torture with whichever setup you use

Yeah I know. I hope I don't end up regretting it.

I don't regret GT7, but looking back, I probably wouldn’t have minded getting it on sale. For PMR, I really want to see what cars and tracks they have and if they have group 5, can am and trans am.

Group 5 is pretty much guaranteed

Love that authentic option.

This would be so dope if the Escort is in the game. Project Cars has love for the Escort. Hope that continues.

Awesome, now I just need to see Trans Am and Can Am. Hahaha

Right at 2:44, imagine being able to have a full field like that. Actually in PC2 you could throw a lot of AI into the race. GT7 not so much lol

I've gone back to PC 2 today and find it playable on the default settings, my only concern is a solid framerate on the SX. (And you can change the FOV height without the need for a keyboard.)

 

[TheHun99]

Yeah, I wouldn’t mind Mark Donohue’s AMC (both Trans Am and NASCAR) or the current TA2 models. Given my lack of skills it would be a disaster for me but would love it!

If the game can have 32 car grids for console, we’re all winning.

 

[Tool1312]

On Xbox you can have 32 on PCars 2 so hopefully they'll do the same this time

 

[Mr Grumpy]

You could have 46 or 48 cars on track in pc1 on xbox/ps4 & more on pc (track dependent ie Le-Mans)

 

[05XR8]

Can’t remember if I ever got that many cars on my PS4. I remember there being slowdown or the PS4 would freeze with too many cars on track.

I think it was only single player Le-Mans that allowed about 45 AI cars, no other track allowed this many.

Okay, this is going to be console game changing. I mean, I’ve only got two words if models get approved for modding to console: Super and Touring.

 

[egl92]

They would have to explain how they will integrate user-generated content into the game.

Whether cars can be added to existing categories or whether the created content will have to be separate from base content.

I mean, they've shown the Audi R8 and the Panoz in the LMP class. If someone creates the BMW V12 LMR, Nissan R391, Cadillac... would it be added to the LMP class, or would there be a separate section for user-created content?

Can it be used in career mode or only in free race?

In any way, it's great news that this option is coming to Xbox and PS5.

And yes, I'm also looking forward to having Super Tourings and classic DTM content.

Some info from their website about the four career starting budgets. It's all about at which step on the ladder you want begin at really.

Bottom step for me! Love to grind from the very beginning.

I’m probably not within the top 10%

I'll change 1 word from your post. Instead of probably, I'll replace it with the word "definitely"

If anything, I'm in the bottom 10%😢 but I'm so excited to dive in anyway

Hoping my Internet racing friend @IfAndOr will organize some races 😳

It's probably the best way to experience all the game has. I'm hoping for the Ginetta juniors again. 🙂
Although the benefit of their multi tier career paths is that if you keep falling off the lower steps you can always opt to skip a few rungs to see what else is available.

Hoping my Internet racing friend @IfAndOr will organize some races 😳

I'm going through a bit of a racing lull at the moment, I haven't really used my rig for about 6 months, but if any game is going to drag me back it's going to be PMR.
The fact that it's supposed to support cross platform gaming is great. That should increase online longevity for organised races and leagues.

 

[whannel]

Farming Simulator '25 coming to Game Pass on August 1st, after releasing on 12th November. Would GIANTS do something similar for PMR?

Was where I discovered their earlier title and thought the wee man would enjoy it since he got excited just seeing me drive past a tractor in WRC9, although he prefers gamepad to the wheel now in it and mainly uses police car mods. Still likes to take the wheel while I reach the pedals in rally games though fortunately.

 

[Fezzik]

They did specifically say it wouldn’t be on Gamepass or PS Plus. May turn up later on but wouldn’t expect it anytime near launch.

Bannochbrae, open-world traffic confirmed? 🤌

Just realised there's video of this new map, Skoda Motorsport confirmed? Could be fun on the offroad sections...

NPCs? If the modding in PMR is anything like this detail I think it could be great:

Not sure whether to trust this video from today, only because there's nothing on the PMR website about it but here you go.

I don't mind this, licensing is expensive, if we get the same layouts then it isn't an issue. As the achievements are lap time based then I guess they'll be accurate.
