Hey, first impressions matter a lot!
Anytime I've booted up rFactor 2 for a singleplayer race, the experience devolves into nonsensical lunacy with AI cars braking on wide-open straights, and other cars smashing into walls. I've also raced in rF2 online leagues and failed to understand what was so revolutionary about it - it has the same features and functionality as every other isiMotor and Madness engine sim and doesn't really drive any different to them.
I'm unsure what people are referring to when they claim the FFB & physics are leaps and bounds ahead of everything else on the market.
That being said, there is a cult around rF2 that almost force it into relevancy at any given opportunity, screeching the exact same talking points about physics and FFB incessantly.
If it was great, a huge chunk of people would actively play it. They don't. It's now a dumping ground for ripped/converted mods. For the most part, sim racers have moved on to other platforms.
397 must've done all manner of things to the game as I didn't like it so much 8months ago, but now it looks good, sounds good and drives better than ever on my never say die t300rs.Don't humour them, brought for $5.80 they would still complain, sort of like going back to McDonalds and complaining about a $6 meal ......not just that most of the time it is about things you only have to google to find answers...... oh did I mention they are bone assed lazy as well
So I logged in to steam on my phone looking to check dlc prices but they don't show.....

Good point and I fully agree.It's really at the limit that the difference appears most starkly. If you're not driving at the limit, then they appear a lot more similar in terms of the physics and FFB.
There is a difference of being stuck in the past and just being plain realistic and using common sense. You fell for the eye candy advertising of games such as AC and ACC which are great insomnia cures tbh but yea sure they reqire NASA equipment to run so that surely makes them better right?Nothing wrong with being stuck in the past, once upon a time I did not like Steam either
in fact it took rF2 moving to Steam for me to finally relent and use it and I waited till last day to move
Today ? I would not have it any other way because positives outweigh negatives simple as that
The word is warped, some people are really warped.Some people are really...........................
To form an opinion on a simulation, the only one way is to buy the game, use recent official content to make a good judgement, correctly configure the game, to take the time to understand how it works, to understand what these strengths and weaknesses are.
This is the ONLY right method, it takes time and it requires a real investment.
The method of dulling your mind by watching videos/threads initiated by NOTABLE HATERS is the worst method.
But guys do what you want and keep giving these haters credit.
It is true that it is better (my god).
Exactly this. I always thought that AMS2's MP was bugged, but after trying RF2 I almost feel like it's working flawlessly... Very sad indeed.So in MY OPINION.
RF2 is one of the Best Sim Racing experiences Ever made I can drive for hours loving the entire experience.
Then you try to do ANYTHING with Multiplayer and you quickly realise why RF2 is often called one of the WORST sims available.
Basically the multiplayer was CRAP when it was released and all this time and updates later it is STILL one of the worst multiplayer experiences EVER....
So very SAD...
And exactly that too. How difficult can it be to implement an "cancel button".Well the u have to download a million things to join a lot of the lobbies would be a big complaint!
You really expect people to start their own server just because they can't find their actual favorite car+track combo in the lobby? Or I misunderstood something.So in MY OPINION in the 10s of thousands of km I did was rarely a issue on my server or BB's (F3 Fanatics) so I don't know what the CRAP is ?
Sure there are bugs and issues but you can work around most of them.
If you going on about not having all content for all servers, lol
Use stock cars and make your own Server ?
Before long you will have joiners and if you use the right format and settings they will come back, they did to mine and I used the same content over and over
So I am always confused when I hear people going on about MP yet without even trying to put up a server with content they want lol ?
