I considered buying into PCars back when investing was still available but didn't. I still haven't bought the game, but am considering it. I did add it to my Steam wishlist, and when it hits a certain price point I will probably buy it regardless of any concerns I might have.
I do have a couple of questions that might sway me one way or another.
1: Trackir, I drive in cockpit view using a realistic FOV, for me this is 27.3 degrees vertical or 44.7 degree horizontal. Since this is quite restrictive I rely on using facetracking to be able to look around and down at my gauges. From what I can see, Trackir is only available in Helmet cam? Does this mean it doesn't work in a normal cockpit view? If so does SMS consider this a bug that will be fixed or a feature?
2: Online: I know a huge majority of sales are for console versions and PC sales are less than 10% of sales. I assume online is platform dependent right? What is the current pc online look like regarding clean pick-up racing? How does it compare, as far as number of lobbies and number of racers per lobby, with other current sims?
Thanks
