................planning to add further versions as free updates in the coming months

I would pay the same again for an Historic version as nice

Gentleman, please get a grip and stop acting like you have just entered a new religion.

Who here told you rF2 is the only thing they drive .... I can't recall hearing such a thing here

Someone else said " took them 10 years to do Nords" when it's not 8 years old yet ( I brought at Build 40 January 2012)

Making things up

This track is amazing!

Looks almost like reality in my RealVR16K res with my 42-DOF motion simulator, hypersonic forcefeedback.

Reminds me of ,Mick me mate the master farter
With his True-pitch, perfect calibrated,
Turbo thrusted, fuel injected, Wynns protected, double jointed arse.

Jesus wept I thought Sebring was good.
This is a masterpiece.

 

[Rastas]

looking good , yes , but masterpiece ?

I'm sure i will get many dislikes for this, but the best version imo is the Gran turismo sport, that's a proper version of the track, with lighting that's un-matched by anything else
yes it's baked ( non dynamic), so they could take some shortcuts and make it look prettier when it's fully dynamic, but still

will get this though, to support S397

Gran Turismo is good....for kids.

 

[boxer]

S397 done a great job on these tracks.

 

[Dady Cairo]

So now I have what i ever needed .time to uninstall assetto Corsa completely!

 

[Boby Kim]

Kids...*sigh*....S397 has done a fine job. This is not about

Very happy for those who love RF2 so much that this the only SIM they can drive, they finally get a S397 laser scanned version of the Nordschliefe.
Since a laser scanned conversion has been available for ages, it is not a total discovery, but you could be convince otherwise by some comments, as if this would be a first in the SIM world and all other version are just arcade. When in fact we have had great laser scanned version of the Nords in all the other SIM for years. I enjoy RF2, among other SIM, it has its moments, but the superlative of the fans are, to me, more a deterrent than an attraction and at the end it probably cripples S397 more than it helps.
Gentleman, please get a grip and stop acting like you have just entered a new religion.

Sounds like jealousy to me...are you?
Let people be happy...why talking about other games. This is about rF2 and a original S397 circuit which are excellent in quality (Sebring, Le Mans). If you can't stand others happiness...well, its YOU who maybe needs a religion.
Amen....

mclaren senna+nordschleife combined+rfactor 2+weekend=happy dude...tnks 397

 

[fireballr18]

It's a gift to all fans. 12€ for 25km of AAA-track quality including plenty of layouts is more than fair. Kudos to S397.

 

[Martin Vindis]

I was very skeptic about this release as I never really thought much about Nords in general, even tho I've driven the track in AC in RF2 with the rip.
I mainly got the DLC for the GP circuit but ofc I had to do at least one lap around the 24H layout and then another... and another one... and another one... and another one... and another one... and another one...
I just wanted more. S397 truly captured the atmosphere here. It really feels like you'er on a track deep in the forest, a feeling I've never experienced in any other versions of the track.

Captured this from the video @eg01st posted.

I'm not easily impressed but this release is just above and beyond all expectations. Hats off S397!
A true masterpiece as many have stated above me.

Retailing for a very reasonable £10.66 kidding me the assetto corsa version cost 50% less and include a bunch of cars even the r3e was cheaper; just wow how people are ok with these ridiculous prices

Move out of mommies house, get a fecking job

 

[Durge Driven]

Another thing on prices.......

Who thinks S397 will profit more off Nords then iRacing, AC, RRE have ?

It's a trick question think carefully before you answer

 

[CDwyer]

Cheaper than Raceroom, for which you have to buy two circuits for a total of $14.36, to get Nords and GP, although R3E does end up with more variations.

You stay at I renting, we will be happy here

Well, they DID say more versions would come later....who knows?

 

[Greg Latty]

yes +1 on this. would love the tourist layout. The track is very well done though. I have no issues spending on great quality.

Yes laserscan Nordschleife have been here for a long time, but perhaps only the Automobilista has a similar good physics as rFactor 2 and on the ratio S397 it is a masterpiece and a very good track

But everyone has their own opinion

 

[Durge Driven]

Well, they DID say more versions would come later....who knows?

Personally I don't think it is likely, why because S397 have not released anything remotely Historic I can think of, Imola is Reiza

Even updates they renamed some Historic packages removing ISI and stuffing up every ones room mods ..... and anything not updated for DX11 looks a tad off these days

 

[Mark B]

A masterpiece.
