Good performance
Just tested Project Cars 2 demo on my "not that old" rig (i5 3.2 980ti) and i can have sustained 60fps at 2560x1080 with some graphics adjustments even at night/rain. ̶A̶l̶s̶o̶ ̶t̶e̶s̶t̶e̶d̶ ̶n̶f̶s̶ ̶s̶h̶i̶f̶t̶ ̶2̶ ̶(̶s̶a̶m̶e̶ ̶m̶a̶d̶n̶e̶s̶s̶ ̶e̶n̶g̶i̶n̶e̶)̶ ̶a̶n̶d̶ ̶i̶s̶ ̶a̶ ̶t̶o̶t̶a̶l̶ ̶f̶p̶s̶ ̶m̶e̶s̶s̶.̶ edit: Nfs Shift 2 does NOT use same engine.

So i hope, well, i know Reiza guys will make their magic (as they did with rf1 in AMS) and performance will be ̶m̶o̶r̶e̶ ̶o̶n̶ ̶t̶h̶e̶ ̶P̶C̶2̶ ̶s̶i̶d̶e̶ ̶t̶h̶a̶n̶ ̶S̶h̶i̶f̶t̶2̶ great!

Dedicated server
Hope this time they release a dedicated linux server version. Easier to deploy and cheaper for server hosting companies. More servers, more fun!

Ideally what I want is project cars 2 fixed which I put a wishlist for in the Project cars 3 section: Project CARS 3 Wish List

I would also love to see Grid Girls, maybe in bikinis & when looking in Rear View, to be able to see the rear spoiler, just like in Race Room. How about moving pit stop men & moving flag men.Nascar 2003 has moving pit stop men when you make a pit stop, can't be that hard.

I just hope that the multiplayer is more like pcars than it is ams or even something new.
AMS/rfactor multiplayer is absolutely terrible.
Server lists are either completely dead and/or people only use leagues to race with, or they use mods you can't eve find anywhere. There needs to be a middle ground.

-super trucks

So i hope, well, i know Reiza guys will make their magic (as they did with rf1 in AMS) and performance will be more on the PC2 side than Shift2

Shift 2 isn't remotely 'the same Madness Engine'...

Shift 2 isn't remotely 'the same Madness Engine'...

Good to know, sources ive checked online said Shift 2 Unleashed uses Madness Engine, my bad. thanks for the clarification!

 

[Dethrone1427]

A Group 5 car set would be amazing, I'm sure Renato and Niel could produce something epic!

 

[Martin Larsen]

Indycar...

 

[Miguel Batista]

Indycar...

I would say IndyCar, LMP2 and 3 and GT cars (gt4, gt3 and gte) if I had to choose content to be ported over.

 

[BKM_BR]

A light and slightly underpowered RWD car like the brazilian Chevrolet Chevette or a Escort Mk1/Mk2 and a FWD "pocket rocket" like the Brazilian Sandero RS, Clio RS, or VW Up GTi
PS: A "Reiza version" of Nürburgring would be great as well.

 

[theeggofeggs]

pls 1996 bpr gt1 stuff like the mclaren f1 gtr, lister storm gts, jaguar xj220, and lotus esprit with a side of magically good optimization for low end pcs

It's been almost completely rewritten since then. Render, IO, Seta tyre model (Shift used a simpler brush model Eero wrote which we now use for our AI). New drivetrain/diff code. New throttling code, etc etc.

 

[Antonio Castagna]

Dynamic wheather, LM historic prototypes and greater realism for unpaved terrain for rally cars

Aside the obvious wishes I've had a little think at what would make me smile, some of these are in AMS already/possibly so hopefully they can be "ported" over somewhat:

- Limited Tire Sets per Race Weekend
- Ability to use Used Tires & "Mix 'n Match" New & Used Tires
- A Comprehensive Single Player Championship; Complete with User Defined Points System, Tracks/Calendar Selection, Multi-Class Options etc etc
- MoTeC integration in game
- UI to be useable both In & Out of VR; i.e. Use the UI on Flatscreen and only put on HMD at the Race Track, or use UI in VR all the time (the Option to have both ways)
- Save Race/Session Abilities
- Advanced AI; This area (see Neural AI) needs to be pushed to the Boundaries more than any game as done so far. Reiza have a good history with AMS but there's always room for improvement and further abilities, I'm not expecting Neural AI, but to advance on the Standard AI (as seen in most Sims) and take that to the next level or as far as it can be taken before Neural is the next step.

Multiple controller profiles (like in AMS1) and not just a single one like in PC2. The need to change button mappings all the time, if you switch your simracing gear, was an absolutely no-go for me in PC2.

 

[internesp]

Gostaria de interfaces e menus principais mais agradáveis, ao fim da corrida a opção de visualização do replay e a possibilidade de salvar dois perfis de controladores (volante e controle do xbox por exemplo).

* I would like interfaces and main menus more pleasant, at the end of the race the visualization of replay and the possibility to enjoy two routes of driver (steering wheel and control of xbox for example)

 

[LieutenantLlama]

Return of the Super V8's include the falcon as well if possible. At least one Aus track would be great as well. MOD SUPPORT!!!!

AMS2 is gonna win it when it brings the GT4 European Series
