New to RFactor here. Liking it and hating it. Love some of the track mods available especially the hillclimb and downhill tracks. Hate the way the ffb and cars feel. You need to install plugins to make the ffb work ie, "realfeel and leoffb". But then some cars are all wrong. The user interface is frustrating to me. The lack of non-race cars is disappointing.
The "gameplay" aspect is a pain and would in retrospect keep me from buying RFactor again.
However, get in a car that "works" on a track you like and it is intoxicatingly fun.
What buying Rfactor has really shown me is both how good GT really is and how much more it (GT) could be.
