sjsharp2010 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 Hughesy said: Really really bored of Forza 5 career mode now zzz. The two simple things that Codemasters did in Grid Autosport made it really fun, 1: qualifying and 2: being able to set race length. When I started Forza5 and the races were 2 laps long I thought ok it's just the start it'll get better but nope.... I'm using fast cars and still 2-3 lap races and always starting in 14th. Those two features can't be that hard to implement can they? I agree I would have liked having a quali session too. It feels more like Grids 1 and 2 rather than Autosport really because of this but I'm still finding it good fun. Haven't played with all the cars I want to yet but I'm still enjoying it. Mostly because I want to race the F1 and Indycar vehicles in the game haven't got around to it yet though mostly because I don't have the credits yet. On Autosport I'm either usually on pole or the first couple of rows which I certainly find useful when taking on Ravenwest. and in the reverse grid races I'm usually better at working my way through the traffic than the Ravenwest guys too which certainly helps when I need to make up some points.I know some people on this forum have had and are still having issues with Autosport with the game saves and all that. Although I personally haven't been affected as it's ran fine on my system so far. I personally feel this is the best game CM have come up with in quite some time certainly since F1 2010. I just hope for those affected by those issues that these issues are resolved soon so they can continue to enjoy the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herby007 Posted August 25, 2014 Share Posted August 25, 2014 I've just started playing Autosport (thanks again luke!) and I gotta say, I've found it impressive thus far. The menus are slick, the ability to do practice/qualy/race is great and I'm enjoying the cars and flashback features (so very slick). Although those cockpit views are fucking terrible ha.

Well we do know they are working on a new engine for F1 2015 and beyond for the next gen consoles which will no doubt be shared with the next round of Grid and Dirt games too. They just need to make sure that issues like save corruption and things like that don't sneak into this next round of games like it did with the games running on the Ego engine. I also hope that they get the gameplay elements right too and if they come up with new features that people like that they build on them rather than scrapping them.

Platy Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 After playing it for a bit I think The Crew could be a pretty fun game. The driving with a controller and wheel is good, good FFB, graphically good. The map is huge, tonnes of different places to explore. Online with friends it could be a good experience. Now Sony need to sort out the issues with Logitech wheels not working on PS4, which probably won't happen which will utterly suck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hughesy Posted August 26, 2014 Share Posted August 26, 2014 Just been using my T500rs wheel for the first time in a while. I can't keep using a controller in Forza, so there's no other way I have to buy the TX wheel... Not sure when I can get it but it has to be before Forza Horizon 2. When you've been using a FFB wheel for so many years and then have to use a pad it's just not the same. It's so annoying that the T500rs isn't supported by X1.

Shame there wasn't any goals in the match itself would have liked to see some goal celebrations but first impressions I've got to say are good only need to wait another couple of weeks for the demo and then another couple before the game itself shows up I've ordered it for both my systems the XB1 and PC. Can't wait to get started, loved the presentation and how they were talking about games that are coming up next for the 2 teams and that too. It felt like a pretty organic presentation.

I've got 2 Fifa careers on the go at the moment one on my XB1 for Fifa 14 which io started when I bought the game and console and a Fifa 13 career mode on PC which I'm slowly getting toward the end of I'll probably finish my careers certainly the PC one before getting stuck in on the new one.I at least wantto finish 13 before moving on.

Yeah it definitely looks better than Pes 14 so it's clear they've upgraded things since then. I may get this for my XB1 but may wait for the price to drop a bit before buying. I'll probably skip it for PC as I got 14 for PC anyway and don't feel the need to jump for it 2 years in a row least we saw moer goals in these games though.

Hughesy Posted August 28, 2014 Share Posted August 28, 2014 @Platy What deg of rotation do you use for The Crew beta? I know I have a different wheel to you but I'd still like to know. I'm using 900 but I'm not sure it's responsive enough like that.I think it's actually the horrible cockpit view making it feel strange as when I switch to hood cam it's ok. Makes me feel sick with the head turning so much when I turn the wheel so hopefully they can add a setting to stop that. I'm really surprised at how good the ffb is, it feels brilliant compared to using a 360 controller. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
