Make us.

*I, FOTEPX and Hard Bot stand in a line, controllers at the ready*

Nah, I don't want to get RFactor because it will take up too much bandwidth.

Gran Turismo = Game
NR2003, rFactor, iRacing = Fully-moddable simulators

Game < Simulator

I'd like to see you mod Gran Turismo.

and I wont be getting rFactor because I'm into rallying.

There are certainly games that can do rallying better than rF. RBR I think being the main choice, yet I would still maintain with the right mod rFactor would provide a better overall experience, due to the fact RBR really lacks a proper net-code. I remember trying to join a league, downloading a LOT of additional crap and still having NO clue as to what i'd even done, let alone if it worked. I am not faulting the game as it is pretty old at this point and is still miles better than any rally game since, but I'd say PC racing is defined by it's online limits, or lack thereof.

Forza overtook GT as the best console racer ages ago

get the memo dude

[Badger]

Depends what console you're on. GT5 has more cars, Forza has more customisability.

But Forza wins, IMO. I was on the original Xbox, so it must be better.

OGM so realistic.

I love how NFS Shift calls itself a sim.

There are several different mods for RBR, and they all provide online play.

[Somebody]

HA just try modifying iRacing and see how quickly they ban you

No modding... buutttt

Brand new free car that will be up for download in about an hour!

I know users can't personally mod iRacing, but just like you just said, they are always updating and releasing new content.

I know, I wasn't saying there was no mods for online, maybe I was unclear. I was just saying that for a complete newb to RBR, I could not fathom how to get it running and racing people online.

Okay, Question Time.

1. Is Rfactor 2's beta worth getting? Is it worth the ~£60 lifetime membership?

2. Will buying Rfactor 2 beta buy you Rfactor 2?

3. Should I download the Rfactor 1 demo before doing anything else?

4. Is it still good without a racing wheel?

[smashysmashy]

DP.

Anyone? :<

This goes for all sim racing games, keyboard is pretty useless, because everything is on or off, including throttle, brake and steering. If you have one, use a gamepad, as they are much better for racing games and much cheaper. Xbox 360 controllers are easier to use with a PC, but I believe you can get PS3 controllers to work too.
