rFactor2 really needs to package their DLCs better. You should be able to buy all GT3 cars in 1 DLC, same for GTE... That's fairly annoying, but to be honest all of their offical content is really good. Even the formula E stuff
JT I completely agree. It’s something I’ve brought up before. They need an “Ultimate Edition” or equivalent. The cost soars when you buy all of this individually
Well, you got what you asked for. They bundled everything up for the sale. All GT3 cars in a bundle. All other endurance cars in a bundle. 4 big tracks in a bundle. It's probably perfect if you're new to rF2. If you're like me and just need a few items, basically nothing is on sale.
I love you cheapskates they want everything for free and figure all the people pouring tons of hours into this should be paid nothing. Go out race real car and see what that cost you and then look at the enjoyment and entertainment that you can get from SIM racing And stop being so cheap. What you can afford a cuppa coffee
It really does come down to preference. If you want to play online, the two GT3 packs, Sebring, Le Mans, and Nurburgring are going to be the best choice. I also love the Reiza pack though. And during sales, the whole pack is like $15 (6 cars and 4 tracks), which is probably the best deal of any rF2 DLC. For me, it's Endurance, GT3, Challengers, Two Strong, Reiza, Sebring, Le Mans, and Nurburgring. I know it's a lot, but you can build it up over multiple sales as I have (hoping Nurburgring is on sale this time as I still don't have it). I love Formula E IRL, but I don't enjoy racing them as much in the sim.
i'm glad you did not an other "is rfactor2 deadish" video as i saw around on YT i owne all content from s397 even i don't use all just because i support the studio for theyr work and the fantastic Sim
well, rfactor is currently in a bit of trouble because other sims are getting all the attention... once the new UI kicks in with easier server hosting, this will quickly change.
i got tired about buying to support but i respect ya, may be s397 should respect more their words.. And yeah i love new cars tracks content but come on fix the main issues some year! because ams2 and acc are coming strong!
All of the official Studio 397 content I've bought so far has been fantastic. With the nudge in the direction of Endurance racing clearly forming, I would love to see an official, laser-scanned version of Daytona released by Studio 397, not to mention whatever LMP1 cars they can secure licensing deals for. Of course, the emphasis should be to address the online... This alone could (hopefully) draw interest back to this otherwise compelling sim driving experience... The UI I can live with for now, even though I recognize like everyone else that it deserves an overhaul.
The Mclarren senna is kinda build on the Le Mans Hypercar regulations. So this car can be used as topclass in endurance racing. Together with the lmp2 and the gte field.
@CleanPipes not to worry, i thought it was clear that i meant the gtr in the first place, since the only senna in rfactor is the gtr. Maybe i should write out the whole name of the car i mean aswell, as to not cause any missunderstandings.
I also liked the video and the idea but in the end i couldn't get much out of it since there was no onboard footage. Often i don't want to drive cars when the engine or transmission noise is horrible or the view out of the car is too limited because of a strange a pillar or massive bonnet. I still gave it a thumbs up! cheers mate
Man you just keep coming out with great content and everything is just 10/10 I love it. It's a blast to watch through all your videos. Heck, I even watch you before bed at times and I find it chill af. Keep it up and I hope you're doing well!
Great overview and agree on your choices! However, I would advise to wait until the new announced Le Mans pack will be released, because I think it willl bundle the Le Mans track with all the GTE cars in one pack.
Bambeakz , yes, you can always wait for a sale, but when they are planning to release a Le Mans pack, I don’t expect the Le Mans track and GTE’s will be on sale anytime soon. On the other cars and tracks, yes, wait until they are on sale.
I so hope there is a complete the collection Feature, seeing as I already have Le Mans and the Endurance Pack already, and I'm not exactly swimming in money.
The Steam sale is right around the corner. My best guess for what will DEFINITELY be on sale: Endurance/GT3/Challenger packs, Reiza pack, 1 or more Formula E packs (most likely including Monaco and Hong Kong), KartSim pack, Sebring, and Le Mans. What MIGHT be on sale: Two Strong pack, Nurburgring, Circuit d'Azur. What will PROBABLY NOT be on sale: the new Radical, 488 GTE, New York/Berlin e-prix. If I remember right, individual cars that are not part of a pack don't usually go on sale. I could be wrong about that though. I may have missed something, but this is a good bet IMO.
@@SimRacing604 i am one of f1 tester. So this is their first experience of doing f1 on rfactor 2. We did hard work on this. It really looks amazing and i hope it will drive well.
After playing ACC and getting used to it. I do prefer ACC for the most part. Rfactor2 you have a better feel for the tire and kerbs. Rain and the overall racing is much better in ACC imo.
Another great vid, thank you Mike. Quick favour if I may. I have tried and tried and tried to get into RF2 but I cant for the life of me get my OSW and RF2 setup correctly. It's simply undriveable/awful!. I would be super grateful for any help/guidance/resources you can share. Cheers Dujon
Seriously though, I'm with you. The Ferrari 488 GTE, Porsche Cup & BMW M2 CS racing are 3 of the best cars in sim racing, period. The GT packs are good, but they've had a few weird BoP issues over the years, and some cars suffer from easy 'hacks' that can get you extra time (driving with minimum rear wing and detached rear ARB etc.)
Frankly you should be buying them all as you were supporting what is probably in my opinion the best SIM physics out there and all the DLC content is above par.You’re not gonna get the ACC I candy per se but the immersiveness Yes far beyond. The moding Community when found absolutely stellar especially ASR
I'll be honest, I really haven't had much interest in RF2, but this video definitely has me interested. I mostly stick to ACC, but I always hear nothing but good things about the driving feel in RF2.
im a fan of ferraris but i dont have steering wheel to play rfactor 2, ihave a xbox one controller but i think i need le mans and the ferrari, thanks for the video
McLaren Senna is the new hypercar class for Le Mans. You will get a class, knowing studio 397 probably car by car. When they started with only selling car by car and track by track, instead of selling a competition package or something, I stopped buying.
I was expecting a new pedals installation/review video. Anyway you can also get some good free mods on rfactor 2 steam workshop if you don't want to keep buying content
RF2 is not perfect, and I have a wishlist that would make it nearly perfect, but which Sim is perfect?... The content you showed, especially the latest, has the best drivingfeel around period. Driving the F488 GTE on one of the 3 laserscanned masterpieces is a absolute joy!!! Look what it has accomplished!, Enjoy the WEC 24H of leMans coming weekend. (you forgot to mention this, and it's Huge of course)
UGH...I'm really annoyed with the way they've done the sale. If you're starting fresh, it's probably great, but if you only need a few random items, basically nothing is on sale.
Stephen Putnick oh wow, I see what you mean! That’s annoying. Why would they do it like that? I’d rather they put everything at 25% off rather than a few things at 50% off, a few things at 25% off etc.
@@SimRacing604 I mean it seems like they did what JT said they should do, so I'm sure some people are happy. I have most of the cars, I just really wish they discounted the tracks individually. I was hoping to get Nurburgring on sale, and I don't need the bundle.
This game is by and far the greatest sim as far as realism, I love it. BUT why are there certain cars that completely drive incorrectly. The AMG GT3 for example. I have tried every FFB setting and physcial set up and no matter what, whenever I turn the wheel at speed the front tires break lose and you get this really weird feeling almost like FFB is reversed. But this only occurs on certain cars. I tried going to json file and changing positive to negative for FFB effects but all that did was ruin the FFB on all of the cars. I have also tried playing with degrees of rotation but didnt seem to help. Somehow for certain cars, I am getting some type of assisted steering assist even though I have it turned off or reversed FFB for particular cars. I have googled and searched the forums but have not found anything that works. Curious if the youtube world has seen this and found a solution. Thanks!
Is there a package which includes both cars+tracks bundle? How does cars to track mapping are? Any car can be driven on any track? Or Endurance cars like LMP2, LMP3 can be driven only on endurance tracks
Any car on any track Reiza pack includes 10 cars and tracks (10 total, i think it was like 6 cars and 4 tracks), now on sale so you can buy it for 10€ Formula e packs also include both cars and tracks, unsure about the endurance pack tho Gt3 pack does NOT include any track
I was playing rfactor today for my 3rd time since buying it few days ago, I was driving the M4 Class 1 DTM, and whenever im braking hard and downshifting, there's a point like @5:08 where the revs drop so low its like the car died momentarily before picking back up and becoming so unstable it wants to spin or sometimes that happens and then the rear comes out so violently and basically spin under deceleration, any clue why this happens?
So, theese are Studio 397 packages? Or non-free mods? I buy them only if are made by the same people who made the game. Actually, I'm surprised that there are 10 DLCs for Rf2
Yeah i will buy the Formula E dlc when they fix the sound making them to sound like a real car, powerful sound please like the Porsches for example! LOL Nah Formula E is for girls.
