For the camera, you can go through every camera for online races.

Matter fact, I'm online right now. I'll start up a private lobby for people in here if they want..

Tips and whatnot..

The little things from a post on the project cars.com forum.

Graphically, some oh wow moments and tiny details:

-The tracks. Wow. So much detail.

-Cars get dirty with an off

-I�ve seen corner markers topple and fall from either turbulence and /or vibration

-May be a fluke but pretty sure a car in front off picked up something on his slicks and flung it at my windshield

-Drove by post crash carnage that made me wonder if the driver was alive

-The lighting (Nuff said). I mean the cars have reflective decals that bounce your headlights for pete�s sake � and that�s the least of it.

-Leafs blowing across the track.

- A cone on my hood. I jabbed my brakes and it flew foward

-Debris , and track damage

-Barely saw something waving way in the distance through some trees to my right (caught my eye
enough to make me wonder what it was), many turns later I came up on a group of fans waving flags.

-Seeing the inside rear lift under heavy braking (shout out to the physics engine here)

-Etc,etc, etc

About 99% of the time I have trouble like that, is cause I'm just going too fast. Trying to make up too much ground too fast. There's about 3 places on that track where 99% of the crashes occur for me. As long as I keep cool in those corners, I can usually do pretty well there.

In particular, Mirabeau, Anthony Noges, and Sainte Devote. There are my nemesis.

In an F1 car, The hairpin turn in-between Mirabeau and Portier seems almost impossible to navigate, to the point where I'm wondering if it's a control setup issue. I can literally do nothing but follow the best line through that turn and pray I can go far enough left to miss the wall on exit. If there are other cars around me, I'm practically guaranteed to bounce off one of them because I cannot take an inside or outside line through that turn - I simply cannot cut the wheel (analog stick) far enough.

Any suggestions?

This game hasn't quite sucked me in yet. I may have selected the wrong career path.

# 287 YungThugga08 @ 05/26/15 08:53 AM

Whoever sent me that invite yesterday, I'm sorry. I was away from my apartment with the wife and kids.

But I feel like in this game, if you're using a controller, you have to "tune and tweak" the controller before you can do anything to a vehicle.

# 288 Proof21 @ 05/26/15 08:55 AM

Just picked this up for PS4.. looking forward to turning some laps with you guys.

# 289 YungThugga08 @ 05/26/15 09:00 AM

But I will be off work in a few hours hopefully. I want to see how good my controller tweaks are..

# 290 Hunkerdown @ 05/26/15 09:13 AM

Got my first pole in my GT career path, currently GT 5. Woohoo!

Patience is the key, not sure how impatient people play this game, haha.

That corner stumps me as well. When you watch videos on fast laps on Youtube, F1 drivers can get around that corner easily.

One thing I may try is tinkering with the steering ratio vehicle settings. Maybe setting it to a fast more responsive setup will aid in that corner? My only worry is that it would make the Formula A cars too twitchy.

Guys, would love to get into some online racing, been getting the hang of the game offline and feel ready for online. Don't want to venture into the random rooms of bumper cars.

Is it honestly that hard to find people who want to run on Nurburgring? I just want a quick 2 lap online race.. that's all..

# 300 RunN1st @ 05/27/15 03:53 PM

Any interest in running a fun Project Cars league? I'm thinking an all OS league with a 1.5hr weekly commitment.

Cars: TBD (Leaning towards Ginettas)
Schedule: TBD
All aids: Allowed

Let me know us know if you are interested.

Update: If we have enough interest, we will conduct a try-out type time-trial to create multi-divisions to align drivers based on how fast they are.

Interested:
