My career GT5 race, had pole with 1:08 lap at silverstone, ran 1st barely halfway through race, then the rain came, ended up finishing 9th after having trouble on some turns. AI at 90%.
First impression last night was a very fun game. However, I also felt like taking turns at 40mph was like turning a boat and I felt a little underwhelmed as far as feeling like I was driving a real car. It was a blast though even though I couldn't keep the cars or go karts under control.
Woke up this morning and started getting the hang of handling and courses and suddenly began to really feel the SIM nature of it. Just went and bought $89 thrustmaster and ran two races and I think this game has went from very fun to absolutely awesome.
Don't get me wrong , the game is just fine with controller and with more practice there's no doubt a controller would suffice for me. But, even with the cheaper wheel and pedals it's a whole new game I feel like.
Definitely would like to jump in some online races with OSers if there's a group playing when I get a chance to log on usually on weekends.

I play with a controller and I've tweaked a lot of the deadzone settings to make the turning and such feel like I'm using a steering wheel.

Cool, ya I didn't mess with any settings in short time I had game (1 day). Just default I thought was pretty darn good once I played more and got hang of things.
The patch on the XB1 made the controller significantly better. Much more fun to play now since you don't have to constantly worry about the car spinning out.
A quick clip showing a lucky wreck avoidance. AI does not like Sonoma's last turn.
Same sort of thing happens at Monza's chicane, and all too frequently. Worse, in practice the cars don't get taken off the track if they wreck - they sit there spinning their wheels and block traffic. You can imagine how that ends up with a large number of Ai opponents.
There aren't many things in this game I feel need to be patched, but this is one of them.
I am new to the party with this game on xbone. I am experiencing some really bad frame rates on this console making it nearly unplayable. I will enter some turns the frames will lock up or skip and I will appear 10-20 feet away from where I was previously. This makes it difficult to do well. Any settings I can change on the one to help until a patch is dropped?
*P.S.- Someone at project cars site recommended changing xbox settings to power save mode instead of instant on. I have had no drops since change(all dubai tracks are only confirmed tracks so far)
Appreciate it - Straight default with a controller
I am on xbone, have not experienced yet.
