This or PC3?

PC3 Is also for sale right now but has tons of horrible reviews.

A little research shows its a situation not unlike what's going on with Microsoft flight simulator.

Apparently tons of people who liked PC2 absolutely hate PC3 because its deliberately more of an arcade racer than a hardcore sim, and they are expressing massive displeasure for their simulation franchise being "dumbed down" for the masses.

Regular people coming into the game seem to generally have no problem with it, but their voices are being completely drowned beneath the howls of the hardcore.

Bottom line, if you could use a nice arcade racer that also does VR, this is just about the only choice.

Thanks Devon,

 

I was reading the reviews and decided to go with version 2. I still don't have a VR headset. Don't even know what to get.

I do have a Logitech G27 racing wheel that still going. I play iRacing once in a while.

Why if I may ask? Are you using VR?

No VR, but the grip and FFB just doesn't feels right.

I’m not a hardcore race simmer, I like a good simcade game but I still absolutely hated PC3.  It just wasn’t fun and the new system they used instead of the racing line that changes colour when you need to brake was useless to me.  It seemed like they managed to create a game that wasn’t good for either simmers or more casual racers.  I regretted spending too many hours coming to that conclusion so that I couldn’t refund it.

PC2 is a ton of fun though.

I'd agree.  PC2 is nice looking, especially in the rain and fog, but AC has much better and more challenging physics, and after a short while, I mostly went back to AC.

 Yup ACC and AMS2 get most of my racing attention these days, both are great.

Guys I'm sorry but I played both PC2 and AMS2 over the last few days and to me PC2 wins out.

1. The menu system is more user-friendly and intuitive, much easier to navigate. Can find the car I want much quicker and getting back to the start menu is easier. In AMS2 I have to use the mouse to get back to the start, as the controller will not move to the selection option for example.

2. Many more cars in PC2 (I have base game for both, no DLC)

3. To me the "feel" of the cars is better in PC2. I'm playing with an XBOX one controller and they have done a much better job of calibrating/tuning the controller in PC2. I have better control and predictability in PC2, while in AMS2 it feels over-sensitive and inaccurate, causing me to lose control much more often, hence a much lower level of enjoyment. Perhaps PC2 is indeed "dumbed down" and I'm just not a realism-freak, but I'd rather complete a few laps "thinking" that I'm a champ than continually recovering/restarting.

I actually do like AMS2, especially because it has my home track (Kyalami) which they've done exceptionally well. But if I want to race anywhere else, I'd rather do it in PC2 to be honest
