The first DLC Car Pack for Project Cars has arrived and its full of iconic racing machines to fill out GT and Prototype grids, with a focus on both Bentley and Le Mans. The five car pack contains:
- Bentley Speed 8
- Bentley Continental GT3
- BMW V12 LMR
- McLaren F1 GTR
- Mercedes-Benz CLK LM
The car pack is currently rolling out on Xbox Live and the PlayStation Store around the world; check your service’s regional listings for local pricing information. A new Community Event is also live and features the Bentley Speed 8 at Road America.
As always, stop by our Project CARS forum for more details & discussion!
For those having trouble locating the DLC pack on the PSN, on the front page of the PlayStation Store, scroll down to New and select it. Next, select Add-Ons. Scroll all the way to the right and select “New Add-Ons see more” (furthest button on the right, top side). Now scroll down to find the DLC package. For me, it was 19 rows down in the center. Hope this works for you guys.
Hi all sorry stupid question but how i can not find this DLC on the us PSN???? i want to purchase this DLC pack but can not find it! please HELP thank you
Sweet juicy cars, how about some road cars though and can we get changeable gear boxes, races cars running one gearbox that can’t be tuned to the course is weird, I found it strange that I can’t set the individual gears to anything but the previous gears’ slot is that how it’s done? That can’t be right, unless the teams work on maximizing gearing using ECU engine output. Can anyone chime in on the gearbox tuning in Project Cars, this strange way of not being able to set gears to take advantage of the power feels sort of flat.
Word before the game was launched was that cars would only have the tuning options that were available in real life, but I haven’t verified this myself post launch. I was tuning the Oreca Nissan for a Crap TT and it has a wide range of ratios available for each gear, but the GT3’s for example are very limited, mostly final gear tuning. Perhaps that’s the way they are in real life, it is a buy and drive kind of series and maybe the gearing is simplified to keep the cost down and the simplicity level up. Maybe someone can double check that.
Gear ratios are limited to what is available in the race series in question, so you will have zero options in some case and far more in other, just as you would have in these series in reality.
What about steam? :(
Edit just bought it on steam :)
Me too. Got a chance to try the Speed 8 at Road America in the SMS event. Sound is delicious, the cockpit is stellar, the handling superb. I didn’t want to spend a lot of time on it because it was late, but I ended up spending a couple of hours on it. I drove the track for one organized race in Assetto Corsa and really grew to like it and it’s very well done in Project Cars.
Also if none of you have the limited edition you can also pick up that pack for about £3.00
For those wanting road cars – they have road car DLC coming. This DLC however is the Racing Icons pack, hence they are all race cars. ;)
Ikr. Everyone’s like, “No road cars?!”. It’s not “Road Icons”.
“usual obligation to purchase a long-term season pass”
Which games does require that except Driveclub, RaceRoom Racing Experience and iRacing?
Would be nice to have an option to download single cars, not the whole packs.
The whole pack’s less than a pint of beer though!
Kind of pointless when the whole pack of 5 cars is only $3.49. 1 car in R3E costs $3 alone. $12 in iracing.
Driveclub does 5 cars, 12 tour events, and liveries for 10 if you buy the packs alone. Plus, way cheaper with the season pass. Without the season pass it’s $90 just for the car packs alone. Not bad for $25 considering you’re getting 45 cars, 176 tour events, and 80 liveries
A pint of beer is more than $3.49 here…lol. It’s about the price of 2 coffees. I can’t believe people complain about not being able to download single cars to literally save pennies.
I did not check prices first, sorry. :-[
There you go…lol.
According to head of SMS, DLC pricing will vary in the future.
Now I found out that the original price was a mistake. It is 8,48€ at the moment.
*faints at the sight of the Bentleys*
I just looked on the playstation store I don’t see the DLC any where. Doesn’t anybody from the US have it yet.
Won’t be up til PSN updates their store. Could be any time within the next few hours
Hmm…is it sold as individual DLC? No Season Pass scheme like Driveclub?
Nice cars, but how much? It’s a dangerous line, the game has recently been released and DLC so soon? Why are not they in the game? DLC should be to extend life time of the game
All the prices were not out at the time of writing, but in the UK it was £2.89, which for five cars is mute than reasonable for me.
*More
3 quid means it’ll probably be $5 for us Americans. Amazing deal if you ask me. I would’ve spent $10 for these cars.
The CLK LM has the correct wheels. It’s a detail that I wish we could fix in GT6. Doesn’t break the game, though, I suppose.
too bad, i have not buy a PS4 yet….
I disagree about the road cars. More are welcome but this is primarily a racing title with racing cars. SMS have the right focus with cars imo.
Yea as if racing titles shouldn’t have road cars in them. Where have you been for the last 20 years? Road cars are a staple in every racing game. Anybody thinking racing games should only have racing cars are taking the game way too seriously.
This isn’t a real career, it’s a game. Games are meant to be fun, and excluding all the amazing and sought after road cars because the developer takes themselves too seriously is not going to do them any good. People love road cars, gamers want road cars, and if SMS doesn’t realize that, they’ll never be able to compete with Gran Turismo or Forza because pCars will always feel like it’s lacking. As it does now.
Road cars are a staple in every console driving game. In racing sims, road cars are pretty much non-existant outside of Assetto Corsa and Project Cars.
Yep more road cars (of all levels) are welcomed by too. However, the race cars correctly make much more exciting noises than the road cars (which is sometimes the other way round in Gran Turismo). As long as road cars are added with thought rather than a scattergun approach and the emphasis is still overall on racing cars I’m very happy.
This pack is nearly a GT6 standard/premium upgrade. Nice
Before PCars was released, I actually lamented the lack of road cars, especially the slower sports cars and sedans. Now that I’ve played the game for a month, I really don’t miss them. With such a small car list I’d rather they didn’t put as much effort into modeling your typical mass production cars like RX-7’s and Miata’s and cars of that nature. A handful maybe but no more. Stick to the supercars and high end sports cars like Corvettes, Vipers, GT-R’s, Lambo’s etc.
I gotta say, great choices on cars except the bentley. I’m actually excited about all of them but seriously, pCars needs ROAD cars, not racing cars. What is SMS smoking? The one thing pCars is lacking the most is road cars so I don’t understand why there’s not even 1 road car in this DLC. I hope future DLC’s will fix the problem but at least this pack has some amazing cars in it.
Totally agree about teh road cars point. They ar ethe most enjoyable vehicles to drive, although the tyre options fo rthem a very limited and don’t offer much grip. (see Evo X). Would love to see some R32’s & RS4’s, GTR, some Rotarys; RX-7’s and especially an MX-5, a track spec NA and NC Miata would make my year for gaming!
“great choices on cars except the bentley”
why do you say that? you have any idea how popular both cars are?
Oh my bad SVP, I absolutely was not talking about the Speed 8. The Speed 8 is amazing. Brain fart, it just slipped my mind that the Continental wasn’t the only Bentley in this DLC.
I meant the continental. It’s just another boring GT car that the game already has too many of. And it’s not even one I’d want to drive at that. Add a DBR9 GT1 if you want to add a GT car, not this thing.
@Ben, I agree except the comment about the tire options. I think it’s great that there’s limited tire options. That’s more realistic and it prevents idiots from ruining the online racing like in GT6. The most annoying thing in the world is trying to go online racing in GT6 and finding every lobby using racing soft tires, even the ones with road cars. Maybe you didn’t want something as extreme as that, but I personally love that there’s no ultra grippy tires for the road cars.
To me, that’s the whole point of racing the road cars. If you’re gonna put slicks on a road car, why not just drive a race car instead? The fun of road cars is the lack of grip and the familiar feel they have.
Online lobbies disagree with the assertion that more road cars are necessary, in both PCars and Assetto Corsa. Lobbies are predominantly race cars in both games and they are always the busiest lobbies as well. Driving road cars is primarily an individual pursuit or part of the career mode in offline play. They just aren’t popular online.
Have they fixed the photomode yet?
Don’t be daft my friend!
Have you tried taking photos in the TV replays? This is actually better than the photomode itself. You can rotate around your car, and use the share button. Sure, it’s not really a photomode, more of a screenshot getter… but I’ve got some nice shots… even if the options of what you can do are very limited.
Oh, no, i dont actually have the game yet. It was just a genuine question! :)
I’m not sure they think the photomode is broken…lol. I haven’t seen any talk about changing it but I may have missed it. It would be a welcome upgrade later on that’s for sure.
It works “you can click and put them on the line!”.
