Would you recommend R3E?

Billy Pilgrim · Apr 7, 2014

Hi
Would you recommend R3E?

Where does it stand graphically in relation to other games? Is it nicer looking than Assetto, iRacing, GSC 2013, rFactor2,

How does its pricing seem? In fact, how does the pricing work out? I see cars are about 300 vPr, and tracks about 500 - how much money is that?

EDIT: is the single player any good? (I don't play online)

you keep using the politics of simbin but you need to realise that simbin is making it and raceroom is selling it..

Mark Reynolds-new face in SimBin, I hope that he can change the pshysics and ffb to become closest for real driving, because for me, I dont feel good the car, like I fell it in Asseto Corsa.

What wheel are you using? What control panel settings? What in-game FFB settings are you using?

May not be of much help but here are my TX settings. I am not at home now to take screen-shots of my R3E/DTM settings. One difference is I have damper at 0, my TX FFB feels pretty good.

Try in Logitech Profiler:

Overall Effects Strength, 101%
Damper Strength 0%
Enable Centering Spring Unchecked or Checked at 0%
Use Special Game Settings, Allow Game to Adjust Settings

In R3E:
Force Feedback Grip Weight: .5
Steering Weight Force: .6

You can leave all other settings as you had them.

Mark is no new face to Simbin, he was working with them on their older titles and has yet again returned to Simbin.

I love GSCE and AC, and R3E/DTM.

So yes, I would recommend all three.

ps. Majuh I hope U dislike this post as well

@Billy Pilgrim, first let me state that this is somehow a strange question since access to R3E is free, the game itself is not free as it is often wrongly referred to but that is another story, so since anyone, including you, has free access, why ask instead of trying it and making up your own mind?
So now to answer the question, so we are clear, no, I would not recommend it, if I had to, but I would recommend to anyone to try it and make up their own mind, for free.

I can recommend it as the base version is free and it has great sound, but the ffb needs some serious improvements.

I trust SIMBIN, so I believe that these improvements are just a matter of time.

Completely off topic but I have to ask, is that a Honda Civic RPM gauge as your avatar?
