Difficult handling for the masses, probably more fun and realistic for us.

I don't think he is driving badly, I personally think the handling is making his driving look bad. 200 cars 14 tracks, constant updates and awkward A.I? Hmm. I have my work cut out trying to master tuning on this one....

No, just no. He keeps referring to himself, basically giving a personal view that he simply cannot drive. He then shoots himself in the foot by saying you have to find the right balance or else your car is on edge, basically saying that tuning the car well offers its rewards.

I think he is talking about everyone in general and not just serious racers. CVG, IGN all review all sorts of games and give a "Causal" view on the game, for TORA, I think this is going to be amazing for everyone, but for those not so serious or as good as we are, how are they supposed to be as good as we are if they don't play it 24/7. I always see these from a casual and sim racer POV but I always know that these are based on the general public. I am not trying to upset anybody, I am just trying to get it understood from both angles by sharing with you guys and friends of mine who might get this to understand more people's feelings toward racing games. As Richy already stated, more realistic things for the masses, but from a casual gamer's point of view (Varies on your view of "Casual") it just won't be as good for them as it would for serious racers like us here at TORA, as I do both stupid and serious things within racing games.

I must admit im not one for really taking any notice of reviews on games, as they are normally a personal opinion and not a opinion of the masses. some will like and some wont, it is as simple as that. i will draw my own conclusion early hours Friday morning.

The problem is they try to jump in an Audi R8 and take a corner like they are playing GTA. The game is harder but it is by no means too difficult for someone that wants to actually buy the game and play it for more than 10 minutes.

Did you not see some of the lines he was taking into the corners? In all the footage he looked as if he'd never seen the track before which shows he hadn't put much time into the game before his review. Really discredits the review for me.

by **JAMIE ANDERS0N** Wed 20 Nov 2013 - 18:52

TORA should have had the chance to give this a pre release review.

by TG Wormburner Wed 20 Nov 2013 - 18:53

Sorry Carbon but if you can't move from one lane to another without jabbing the stick all the way left/right just to basically change lanes you have a problem. He nearly spun out changing lanes...

I'm going to gloss over all the reviews/opinions. It looks good, and supposedly the physics are better, so it's sold to me. I care not for cars or tracks; Quality over Quantity any day!

A lot of people are going to diss the game for the car count and track count (despite the fact that the cars and tracks in the game are the most heavily requested ones since Forza 1, ungrateful B******ds). I just hope T10 understands they have to nail it with FM6 or they're screwed....

I agree with this Stan. Especially since it looks like Project CARS is coming out in Q3 of next year. As far as the shipping on mine. I received my tracking number Monday evening from Microsoft. I keep checking to see if it had been shipped. No, no it hasn't. Crying or Very sad

by TG Wormburner Wed 20 Nov 2013 - 21:43

The complaints people have on Forza are?

Cars and tracks.

How much of that will be on Project CARS and how hard will that thing be to play on a controller?

How hard will car balancing be?

That game, as great as it looks, has more questions than answers right now.

I can only imagine there must be stacks of xbox ones sitting in courier companies depots around the country that have been scanned for each customer ready to be put on vans for delivery.

All full TORA review will be done and honestly i love all the negative comments from casual f1 fans....

Smile

Car balance and breaking before you corner and hitting your apex and throtle balance is key and is well what I do @ silverstone on track days fun Smile

by **CQR Rogue** Wed 20 Nov 2013 - 22:15

plus I think we all should show support for Turn 10 having the balls to radically change the handling to something we have been asking for years

What?

The guy in the video has clearly never driven without racing line before.
