flowaangelz 0 Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 As happy i am to see a prospect of a game with many tourers, also i am a bit scared of having many classes to choose from. Many separate car classes, upgrades and tunning can divide and fragment online again. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RallyDriven 398 Posted May 8, 2014 Author Share Posted May 8, 2014 So there is a merc V8 tourer? This is all too confusing :P Quote Link to post Share on other sites

RallyDriven 398 Posted May 9, 2014 Author Share Posted May 9, 2014 Ok, so we potentially have 4 of the 5 touring car classes. What do you reckon the 'cup competitions' could be? Something like a clio cup maybe? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
P308R 37 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 * Clio Cup?* Ginetta Junior / Pro ?* Porsche Cup ?Really hope that V8 Camaro will make an appearance as well.1. WTCC -> Super 2000 2.0l2. BTCC -> NGT 1.6l Turbo3. Euro V8 -> V8 4l upto 6.2l4. DTM -> V8 4l5. ? BTCS -> V6 3.5lThe fifth can be based on the BTCS * Volvo S60 - Grid 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Im in total agreement with you here doode.Really happy witht he tourer focus....not so happy with the potential for class/user splittingIf i do get this game, I certainly hope that this dosent mean the likes of you and I rarely get to race each other due to class preference.

Assiemodis 67 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I think that if we buy the game (and for me it is still a big if) we will be all in the same custom session gooner.It has always been like that from grid thru dirt2 and dirt3 and prob will be so with this game aswell. And you dont have to worry about setups nor flashbacks then as the host can turn it all of. :D Quote Link to post Share on other sites
MiatakiasGR 1 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 yeah i would like Clio cup ....It was one of my favorites classes in Toca 3 online..I prefer slower cars and not too fast...Yes Assiemodis8-X , all we will play in custom races with coll on , full damage , 3-5 rounds ,no flashbaks etc.... \m/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites
flowaangelz 0 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 +1, +1TBH, I hope that as many as possible users will choose some particular smaller touring series and master it so we could have great close racing. @ Loore We have series and classes now. 5 series, but how many classes in total?

Oscar97 26 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 BTCC and WTCC cars are in the same tier I think. http://media.xboxlive.fr/galeries/3849/007.jpg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RallyDriven 398 Posted May 9, 2014 Author Share Posted May 9, 2014 I'm not an expert on touring cars, more of a rally fan (surprisingly), are the WTCC and BTCC pretty similar in specification? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
flowaangelz 0 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 OK, so BT vs WT and Euro vs DTM :) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
P308R 37 Posted May 9, 2014 Share Posted May 9, 2014 btcc used to run the s2000 spec just as WTCC. The cars shown from WTCC are s2000 except for the Cruze, that's a WTCC NGT. The ones from btcc are asumably NGT. 2.0liter n/a versus 1.6 turbo. The ngt already proofed to be faster. In gas it will probably be equaled out. I think you are right about being in the same tier. Videoproof is there. Maybe the 5th one will then be classic touringcars? BTW: BMW 320 - S2000 CRUZE - NGT CIVIC - NGT FOCUS - NGT To be honest I think we will see thé following car as well: Volvo C30 WTCC - S2000 - GRID 1 Aaaahhh formatting doesn't work while editing on phone....

RallyDriven 398 Posted May 9, 2014 Author Share Posted May 9, 2014 Yeah, G2 kin of had classic tourers with the old Merc and BMW, would be quite cool to see some TOCA2 era tourers as well! Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Chompster 0 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 wait wait wait... how is NOT having weather effects a feature??Ugh, that shit better be in GRID3.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RallyDriven 398 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 I put it in there just because people were constantly asking around the forums if it has weather, same with pit stops. I shall add the new Mercedes to the list as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Grid was Never about pit stops and weather, nor was it about practice and qualifying etc.Yes the position on the grid was decided by who pressed ready fastest but that was beside the point, it was about the RACING not the bells and whistles.I played Assetto last night 20 minute practice with a 10 minute qualifying session for a 5 lap race?As for weather effects keep that for F1Grid was all about a level playing field, pick a race and go race it no one with an advantage all cars the same setup so it was all about player skill and not what they knew about car handling physics.Assists on or off is enough and can be decided by the host qualifying at least in GAS is 3 laps maximum, unlike Assetto where it's the hosts choice. Same with car setups just the same as say Dirt 3 with 5 categories to adjust, anything more is a waste of time (in anything but a pure sim racer).Point is, why would I want to spend hours setting up the car etc just for a 10-15 minute race?I want to be on the track RACING with my friends. not farting about with the car.

It could completely ignore changes to handling for all i care, it's about variety. It's a perfect way to change things up so you aren't always racing on sunny Yas Marina or night Yas Marina. You could have rainy Yas Marina, Cloudy Yas Marina, windy Yas Marina and any combination of the aforementioned.Can't help but feel there won't be any other times of day other than midday or night either. Maybe some will be morning/evening but most likely specified per track.Will have to wait and see(not too long thankfully, yay) and pray that i'm wrong. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
