I was until I saw the car list.

I'm sure it's a great game but I'm not paying full price when I'd only be interested in driving a handful of the cars.

Did a European company develop this game? Because the lack of American cars on that list is actually kind of laughable. It's like they forgot North America existed, even the Fords are mostly Euro-spec models.

Hell there aren't even Asian cars. No GT-R or even an LF-A but the Evo gets put in? Yeah this game isn't worth anywhere near the initial asking price.

[PoorMansCamaro]

How are you going to have a Mustang, and not at least include a Camaro. maybe a challenger...a corvette. some kind of other muscle car. lol

I love me some McLaren 12C though.

Yea I noticed that as well. I get every car game though, so will give it a fair chance.

The online player mode is suppose to be awesome though.





Your Driver Network Profile tracks many stats relating to your Experience, Focus, and Affinity. But it also tracks your Online Performance and Reputation...

• The number of races entered vs the number completed
• Breakdown of placement in those races
• Pole positions achieved in online qualifying sessions
• Average finishing position and average qualifying position
• The number of races where you incurred no penalties
• And the number of races where you were disqualified

All this information is then used to ensure you find players of similar skill and conduct. Continually collide with other drivers and you'll slowly make acquaintances with others of similar destructive tendencies. Drive with good sportsmanlike conduct and you'll be enjoying the company of other refined opponents.

So play fair, be successful, and greatness awaits.

I'll pick it up at some point this summer, hopefully they'll have added cars by then.

Drivers Network Championship looks cool too:

The SMS-R Driver Network Championship is an in-game virtual racing season searching for the fastest Project CARS drivers from around the world.

Consisting of a series of rounds that coincide with real-life motorsports events occurring on weekends throughout 2015/2016, the aim of each round is to set the fastest lap time on the leaderboard before it expires with points then being awarded for leaderboard positions.

This game has some serious steering issues. I would wait to get it until they have been worked out. They have acknowledged the issues and are working on patches from what I've read.

Basically non-drivable at the moment.

[FenwickHockey65]

Glad I'm waiting then. It does look like a good game.

I read that there is a bug that all steering wheels aren't working as intended. Does the controller work though?

[Steve Dallas]

I read some reviews on this, and that the simulation is really bad at high speeds. Could be the steering issue, or just a bad simulation.

Won't be buying mainly because Chevy Corvette isn't even represented.

Currently, been using iRacing as my driving sim.
