Project Cars 2 - Driving A Legend | VR | ** RELEASE VERSION **

[@hardtobearit]

So glad i found your 100% force feedback vid. Your funny and a stellar driver

[@danlatham8998]

Looks like you had fun out there man, keep up the awesome work dude. Your doing a great job

[@stuartkeithguitars4251]

I've never heard better racing commentary....much less from the guy doing the driving...while he's driving . You're mad.

[@hectorzambrano4092]

You really hyped me up because this race was outstanding!! Keep it up!

[@Husqy44]

Definitely one of the all-time legends, and one of my absolute favorites in the game!

[@davidlopez2363]

Very good VR-video, lots of improvement regarding the shaking! Awesome!

[@Deron8564]

Great video. Funnest 7 laps of any race I've ever seen.

[@riman8493]

Lovely race, Jimmy! Looks much nicer than the preview videos! Great to see the AI so well-behaved, too! Yeah, it still has T1 issues and yeah, there are corners in which it is slow, but in general the way it raced you was spot on! It didn't bump you, yet it tried to block you, tried to pass you, etc, all respectfully and competently. You sounded like you had a lot of fun as well. Glad to hear you find the LMP900 much improved over the press build. 2 things - 1: the understeer you complained about; have you tried how the car feels in clean air? Downforce cars do suffer quite a bit while in a draft. I would definitely expect the Schuhmacher S'es to be punitive for a trailing downforce car, when racing as closely as you did with the AI 2: you mention you feel the quality of the car is up there with AC, basically, but you still feel like rF2 and iRacing do it better. Can you go into what you feel those games do better?

[@MadAlPlays]

Check the tuning, there should be two defaults, and it should select the correct one for a wheel (loose) or gamepad (stable, which is more towards understeer). They are car specific and under the all tracks

[@captaincondescending]

Can we expect a comprehensive Jimmy-B review? I'd love to hear your thoughts on the game as a whole! Also, video request would be full GT3 or GTE field in changing conditions. I'd love to know how the game handles on a drying track!

[@Jimmy_Broadbent]

If people want it then I wouldn't mind making it :)

[@yaeg081787]

I'd very much like to hear your overall opinion on Pcars2. Been on the fence about purchasing myself.

[@AceUch1ha]

Would love to see you do a proper review of this game Jimmy!

[@ALLMAPEOPLE]

That last lap was intense.

[@jeracerx]

I had a vid idea, test out the AI in multiclass, but instead of doing the standard LMP/GT thing, could you try like a P900/GT1/GTO field, like a classic 90's race?

[@djsquibby]

Cool video matey, I've recently bought a G920 setup and Next Level Racing Stand. I've not used a wheel and pedles since the PlayStation 1, there after I used a gaming controller for games like Grand Turismo, Burn Out, Crash N Burn, FlatOut and Forza Motor Sports etc. I'm learning the ropes playing Project Cars 2 PC and loving it, I've also made some videos for my KZbin channel ;)

[@maneeshaliyanapatabendy1481]

your races are more interesting to watch than the f1 2020 season

[@Heldermaior]

Been playing pcars2 again and I must say that with the custom deb files it is quite good. It does damage for instance in a way that Assetto Corsa doesn't dream of and only iracing can match. Kinda reminds me of the old GP4 days.

[@Plants_with_Alex]

Last lap was wild

[@roderickkennedy2192]

Really enjoyed that mate,thank's.

[@939456]

Enjoyed it so much, thank you!

[@Okeanos86]

Bojack Horsemack is ma boi!

[@Jardier]

Looking good :)

[@svenbrueckner5724]

ha ha that race, well done, especially the last lap lol

[@alex-vu3gv]

I'd like to see some LMP3 cars please

[@karmakhazi1914]

Great video, Jimmy. :)

[@gobowgamer1418]

Great VR vid. 👍🏻🏁

[@starkalarm]

Like always your videos are dam good

[@theclansman6663]

100 bmw's, 1 bentley

[@OhItsThat]

TheClansman666 Thank you! Nobody ever seems to notice or give a shit. Why can't they just allow custom grids and liverys for the grid? Let the player pick whatever car they want..like AC does in single race. I don't wanna drive in a multi class race and see half the GTE field be Ford GTs with the same Livery. This looks just as bad as pCars 1. Whatever it is that picks the field balance in game was obviously ported over from the last title....it's broke SMS...how can you not notice that?

[@theclansman6663]

need pc2 cars in assetto.. that would be awesome

[@MrDjsmooth87]

Yea ive noticed that even in pcars. A thousand Audi's and BMW's... Yet randomly placed 1 or 2 Bentley's.

[@DocHalliday]

That was very entertaining. 👍

[@Paul91415]

R8 Master Race

[@nsxmads7733]

The AI is to slow at the start. Same problem on F1 2017.

[@pomaranc747]

That is issue in pretty much any sim, too many cars in a small space is a difficult thing for AI to handle.

[@Shon304]

on every racing game, even Assetto Corsa. Its something pretty impossible to fix in our times. I just avoid overtaking them to make It fair to the rest of the race

[@Aro3o6]

easy way to solve this problem is to drive like them, :) oh and i know how it feels getting brakechecked every corner even with max aggression on ams,rf,rf2,ac,f12017 though its not as bad as you think

[@RetroGenetic]

AI in racing games often has certain radius those scan, and when there is many back to back and the front starts to break, the rear havn't reached breaking point and thus wont get to "braking zone" yet, and notices too late the car infront doing emergency braking to avoid hitting the one infront and now this rippoles all the way back. But yeah there is few ways to fix that and all of them require quite a bit extra processing which is rather used for physics.

[@TheJynx2011]

So what does the drink button do?

[@kylepalmer8445]

Do you have early access

[@MarquisDeSang]

Does the sticker on your oculus rift block the oculus lights? I know there are a lot of lights around the oculus (20 small point lights on all surfaces).

[@richysracing9524]

Whats the ffb like mate?? 👍. I no you have a dappa wheel but ya know 👍👍

[@DvDPlaya]

If it runs better than PCars 1 in VR then that's more than enough of a reason for me to buy this.

[@eamonahern7495]

T1 of the final lap was frustrating to watch but a thouroughly entertaining video nonetheless.

[@karolievans2124]

Good Job Jimmy

[@james-ch]

Will you live stream pcars 2?

[@Baker_7498]

Probably my biggest question about this game: How is the FFB?

[@Republic-of-Tea]

would be great if your could do a overview/review of the game maybe in the next couple of days if you have the time as it would be nice to know how good the game is overall before buying it as it would be nice to get it before it comes out since it will cost less but not sure

[@TheFlacker99]

I see a ton of graphical artifacts. I was thinking about trying Pcars2 but I still have a gnarly taste in my mouth from Pcars1. How has it changed realism wise?

[@larkr3340]

Note that all of the pop in on the edge of the video is outside the players field of view. If you are wearing the headset, or playing on a monitor you won't see that.

[@Daz5Daz]

Nothing really jumped out at me. What are you seeing that is a problem?

[@Baker_7498]

Jimmy has a 1080ti, if it can't run the game then what can?

[@ghosttoxism]

It's not graphical artifacts. It's just Jimmy's ingame graphics setings which are lowered down to give him comfortable fps count in VR

[@illusiveguy3716]

I don't think it's jimmys GPU. Just look at the left border at 6:00 Use , and . to switch between frames, you can see that this is definetly not caused by his GPU. I hope that this only occurs in the VR to Monitor conversion

[@carter_schulz]

how do you deal with motion sickness in vr?

[@imkun8681]

The Racing is VR is soo soo hard

[@Boramas]

Cracking Video!

[@Noggin41]

hey does anyone else think jimmy should be a comentor in racing? lol he should totally be a reporter or broadcaster during the race

[@TheJAMF]

Is multiplayer in your demo version?

[@siribiriz]

Does the AI actively move to block you at all?

[@EdrikPrinsMusic]

Hey Jimjim, I'm pretty much about 90ish% nearly certain that *fake jeff* is actually Ben Collins.

[@RobertMartino98]

Jimmy said it's right there with assetto corsa so you should feel good about this game

[@talon1706]

VOR member here. What video card are you using for VR? I have a GTX 1070 STRIX. Would that do?

[@00lh02]

My favourite car to drive in PC2 along with the formula Renault.

[@vScoobyDoox]

What is the maximum number of players in multiplayer? And is it different on console to PC?

[@agamernamedwill2585]

Pc i think 32 or 29 consoles 16

[@RetroGenetic]

32 PC and 16 consoles

[@RigRacer]

What's your PC spec Jimmy?

[@RISCy27]

What is the red frame around your wheelbase? Is it a stabilizer?

[@SternLX]

That's the frame for the entire rig. Seat, Wheel base, shifter and pedals are all mounted to it.

[@AbberjamUK]

Woz Lee???

[@pistonbloke]

Very good!!

[@vapour_cs658]

It might not on your end, but it looks like the camera is a bit off centre to the left. Does that bug you?

[@goofboy413]

VR headsets render two images, one for each eye. The gameplay footage is being captured from the left eye only.

[@vapour_cs658]

Das Erste Opfer ahh ok, all makes sense now

[@CANiHAVEaCHIP1]

This is looking pretty good, but understandably I still hold some scepticism that they haven't done enough over PC1 for me to consider it worthwhile. AI look like they can hold a fight now, which I consider very important. Content list also looks good, but day 1 DLC seriously urks me. Oh yeah, can we turn fake Jeff off?

[@PandyTimBR]

damage?

[@Globespy]

Played the for 5 hours late last night. I'm not going to touch on the physics or car feel in this post, I think that's been beaten to death. What wasn't as good as I'd expected was the VR experience. I have a high end system and can play with the SS (I was using 1.6-1.8) and tested with many of the other settings between medium and high, a couple on ultra. Graphically it is well done, but the screen door effect, especially objects further away seems like it's much more pronounced than other VR titles. I did a couple of back to back comparisons with the original Pcars and I think the original is sharper. I'm hoping this is resolved soon as I race exclusively in VR. I can't go back to monitors, even with the much prettier graphics after experiencing the immersion VR provides. Quite the disappointment...

[@dennis1753]

Is this the final version?

[@r6201sk]

Dennis Imroth there should be big day one patch .. not sure if he has one .. somewhere under other video with same version Jimmy has was said it is without day 1 patch ... But who knows

[@AWRuler]

T1 be like "Lemme smash"

[@daweitao2668]

I don't understand gamers. He says the handling of this car is very close to AC but not as good as iracing and rfactor 2...But he and others have not driven anything like this car before in real like and none of these tracks either. He has no true measuring stick at all. You can find pro drivers who rate all these different games or not rate them, so even they are inconsistent. It seems for the average gamer it really just comes down to what you prefer with the handling I think.

[@bbc6rgf57ytty5yxyw5gt]

A lot of sim racers are like that, it can be an extremely toxic community when it come to opinions. You should also keep an eye on the Inside Sim Racing, Ferrariman601 and SimRacing604 channels to see if they cover PC2 and to get different opinions. Just keep in mind if a game doesn't align to what some sim racers think is realistic they can hate it, even if it's a great game. Did you get that T150 or are you waiting to see how good PC2 is?

[@daweitao2668]

Thanks for the recommendations, I know of Inside Sim Racing but the other two are new to me. Though perhaps not as good a racer as some of them I find GamerMuscle has a fairly refreshing/sensible view on sims, sims snobbery and the limitation of gamers being able to interpret correct car handling. Will be some months till I get the wheel even if PC2 turns out great. I don't really buy full priced games, partly as full price is a fair chunk of change and also after a few months most major issues are patched so you can have a better experience. Perhaps around Christmas time :)

[@bbc6rgf57ytty5yxyw5gt]

GamerMuscle is definitely a refreshing change to the overly critical views most have. I don't buy new games myself but I did see PC2 on Amazon for PC for £33.99 which is tempting. Forza 7's demo is out now too, while it's not super realistic it was quite enjoyable with a controller. It is also extremely optimised. Generally speaking from my experience iRacing is the least realistic of the 4 main PC sims but has a very well structured online component, but the game is very expensive between the content and subscription. Assetto Corsa would have slightly better physics and has a massive modding community, followed by Automobilista and then rFactor 2 which is definitely the most realistic sim around. I don't think any 1 of the 4 is superior to the others, they all have their pros and cons. How much you enjoy a racing game depends on what you're looking for and the hardware you have.

[@SternLX]

sim racer reviewers for the most part have never ever been behind the wheel of a real track car. All there opinions are relative to their experience with other titles. It's why I only believe real drivers when they say a particular simulator feels real. pCARS2 has like 20 real race drivers behind it and they all love it. Even an F1 team prefers SMS's new physics engine for pCARS2 over their in house simulation software.

[@bbc6rgf57ytty5yxyw5gt]

I'd never trust the opinion of people affiliated with a game. By the looks of it, Project Cars 2 is a big improvement though.

[@AwesomeCREEPER77]

Does project cars 2 have ps4vr

[@illusiveguy3716]

Im sad that the R8 doesn't sound like anything close to the real one. How can they mess up the sound so hard that a random guy without any experience in sound engineering can instantly tell the difference by watching a youtube video

[@zascruyt]

Illusive Guy because videos you see online of the actual car in real live are shot with microphones that can’t pick up all the sound. This is actually closer to the sound it would have in reality

[@illusiveguy3716]

No you can watch any R8 footage, it doesnt matter if it's recorded 17 years ago or in 2017, they all sound very similar. In PCars the car sounds like a F1 car which simply is not the case

[@rickyboy199554]

What track is this?

[@dylanwest4265]

Ricky Fernandes nürburgring gp

[@richardgriffiths3665]

Nice video 😃

[@toadscrote123321]

Anyone experience any dizziness after racing on vr? just got pc2 and used it with My Oculus for a short while yesterday. Dizzy as hell today now, which isn't ideal when you drive a fuel tanker but I can't phone in and say I won't be in due to a video game haha. Any tips anyone??

[@goncalorodrigues7103]

But... Is it a Sim???

[@NewsFreak42]

depends on how you define sim ;) some people say it is not possible to do a sim on a PC, or there is no real sim available for PC, other people say GrandPrixLegends (1998) and Nascar2003 is a sim. I would say try PCars2 for your self and do your judge. ;-) Im sure playing PCars2 will be a lot of fun.

[@SlowBloke123]

WhipDiddyWhip halleluja :)

[@kylepalmer8445]

Gonçalo Rodrigues as close as a sim can get

[@RetroGenetic]

WhipDippyWhip exactly, so long as physics and handling are good enough I am happy as I get to drive GTs other than 3 and Prototypes.

[@ZheikoNileth]

whipdiddywhip Of course its a Racing game, but is it more simulation or more arcade? SIM or ARCADE both fall under category of games - what you wrote there is just tons of bs mate

[@Smulikek]

If that spotter will be that silent and random and not be able disabled i will be sad

[@pauldeverill926]

You don't get a spotter with these cars. Check out the Indy Cars on an oval for that.

[@CairnieR]

The spotter can be turned off completely, kept on only for Indy car or on all the time. The other voice is the race engineer who could be turned off IIRC

[@Theslayer19811]

Boss you can clearly carry more speed into the corner but have issues with corner exit...that's where they get away from you

[@Tomtraubert2009]

Well, not literally, obviously.

[@jimrolaand5508]

i really hate the carpark section at the start of the nurburgring now, the older one was great, no idea why they changed it, like the final chicane at catalunya..

[@minkikato]

Shit that was so intense!

[@mikeydluffy2718]

Effing choked there lol

[@byeagleesp]

DIESEL POWAAAAAAAAAAAA

[@jackstyles509]

Pre ordered today, cannot wait! Will finally give me something to play other than iRacing

[@marc9283]

10:44 NANI

[@Shon304]

Why not making a proper review Jimmy? I really trust your opinion

[@TheKwod]

TRUTH don't pay the bills

[@Shon304]

what

[@TheKwod]

pcars is 100% simcade, review over

[@GodfatherBenz]

TheKwod Zheiko Nileth nowhere near “arcade”. Need for speed is all arcade, grid is arcade, burnout is arcade. Its fucking obvious what an arcade racing game is you bunch of morons. Any racing game that is serious with their tune ability/physics/handling/track scanning is a fucking simulator. Fuck off anyone who thinks pcars1-2 could possibly be a “simcade”. Dumbfucks

[@SockyNoob]

Do it without VR so we know how it looks graphically

[@kanojo1969]

There's literally thousands of Project Cars 2 videos on KZbin. If you don't know how it looks already, I doubt one more video is going to help.

[@SockyNoob]

Taniwha_NZ I'd rather not watch it from a normie KZbin channel who will know little about the game itself.

[@agoodplumber]

play by play like a pro...

[@RobertMartino98]

5:59 look towards the left wtf lol

[@chimpyman92]

Crucial_US you don't see that in game. Only shows up in a replay when using vr.

[@leolee2401]

Hello jimmy. I enjoyed video. But i was not happy at last ending video. Do u know the red sun on white is symbol of japan army at world war? Easily say u r using hakenkreuz for asian. Hope u understand this issue

[@zascruyt]

이황 who cares? Let the man enjoy himself dude :)

[@Vettel2011]

KIds don't scroll down

[@TacticalCardboard]

What? The poor AI behavior wasn't just a press build thing? REACH INTO THE BOX OF CRAYOLA, CAUSE COLOR ME SHOCKED. Clearly suffering from "ThatOneCorner-Itus" to a debilitating degree, very poor at the starts (there are videos worse than this, and this was pretty bad), brake like grandmas early yet come to a near stop at turn in, look like hovercrafts that don't behave like the car should be be capable of (aka, Magic Grip for the AI) - not impressed. Also I hear they didn't fix the old ISI "next session" bug where the AI goes seconds faster if you skip the session... So am I supposed to be waiting for "the patch" or is it Assetto Corsa with night and rain? Was hoping they'd at least give the updated AMS AI a decent holler, this looks like rFactor on an average mod track circa 2006 type behavior. lol Is there AI talent so the same guys generally end up in the same place in the field or still a random mish-mash free for all? Also, the left rear end plate on the 7 Toshiba Ferrari is reversed. Giese Ferarri looks like the textures are weirded out at the back too. Bring on the hate I'll inevitably get for daring to say this.

[@NemisisDL]

Empty Box Fight the power!

[@Karto86]

I thought you're not interested in this game ;)

[@oina3963]

Karto86, it is an absurd logical fallacy to say that he should not comment on the game because he is not interested in it. Are you really that stupid that you cannot put it into context? He, like me, is not interested in the game because of what the first game turned out to be. It's not that we don't want the game to be good, it's that we simply do not believe it will be good based on the first game, the absolutely toxic comments spread around by people like Ian Bell and the general direction that SMS went with PC after release. Consequently, it is perfectly reasonable for us to comment on the game and point out its flaws, without having any intention whatsoever of giving SMS any of our money.

[@RetroGenetic]

Oh my! Someone daring to give critical opinion, and ask relevant questions! *pours all the left over hate available*

[@M2orNot]

And you're not saying AMS had some time to fix the AI, did that happen with "the patch"? Anyway, the points you make have to be said and I'm glad you said them. But I'm still really not sure if Assetto Corsa with night and rain is really all that much of a bad thing at this point. I just think that credit should be where credit's due and a shitstorm should be where a shitstorm due and this game deserves both.

[@King-Gilamashur2758]

AI are way slower on the straights. I don't like that, feels like the game is making it easier on you. I like that when I play against the AI on assetto ps4 version if I'm on a straight the AI cars don't drive slower than mine , so if I pass them I know it's because of skill not being helped by the game.

[@bubbagrace2997]

The cars he was blowing by on the straights are from a different era and are slower in reality.

[@pawepawelec4419]

It's a shame you couldn't give an opinion.

[@denkra5702]

These AI cars are the biggest bots ever they drive sooo bad

[@dincicalex5082]

Its audi r10 not r8

[@GaffaTV]

Huh? What makes it the R10? The R8 DID win LeMans five times as Jimmy said, as well as other stuff.

[@Jimmy_Broadbent]

Nope R8. R10 was a diesel.

[@gonzo3915]

VR again, I dropped a like but I can't watch much, a fixed camera would be so much better for the viewer.

[@gbessette40]

Jimmy, I do not agree with Gondwana. The panning and movement adds depth and realism. Fixed camera = boring... Of course this is subjective so please do not be offended Gondwana, just adding some counter balance to your argument =) Great race Jimmy!

[@Aardvark892]

I agree, but at the same time I like the "feel" of in-helmet view (VR) like this. It's like back in the day when we would get that rare glimpse of a camera view inside the cockpit of a racer during a race. The only thing that gets me is that Jimmy's preferred (apparently) POV sits lower in the seat that I like. I keep finding myself awkwardly craning my neck, trying to look up more.

[@Voodoo_S3]

Game looks average and thats being generous, only stayed for Jimmy's commentary.

[@agamernamedwill2585]

1 Voodoo Gaming the graphics are downgraded because of the vr

[@Voodoo_S3]

A Gamer Named Will I'm aware of the graphics been downgraded due to VR but what I meant is that the game just doesn't look like it shines in any particular department, sort of just an average game with nothing special about it.

[@agamernamedwill2585]

Yeah i see what your saying now good point

[@BALIST0N]

I see no difference with PC1, and again, this game bring only 50 cars, we can see jimmy race against 20 bmw and 20 Ferrari, ... sorry WMD but not this time spending money

[@RoguexGuardian]

BΔLIST0N' Are you blind?

[@coses4957]

AI looks great, not.

[@xellanox]

Graphics wise it looks like shit.

[@Canuckbrah]

It's for the VR. You have to negotiate with your graphics settings if you don't want to have jarring frame drops

[@viperion_nz]

You must have really pretty shit, son

[@Canuckbrah]

Viperion_NZ I've got a 980ti and I still get dips on Assetto occassionally

[@cypher9000]

Looks fine to me, not sure what's so horrible about the graphics.

[@SternLX]

Your next trip out of the house should be to an optometrist. Get your shit checked out son.
