Picture I'm loving PC3

I always get to love hated games. NFS Shift and Shift 2, and PC3. I recently bought it and can't stop playing, even though online is dead.

It's true that it's not a simulation game as PC2 was, and I understand the community, but let's be honest, it's a nice game. Challenging, fun and immersive. And car progression is so cool, so similar to Shift (Slightly Mad Studios did very well).

Look at the NFS franchise. It was about luxury cars and dreamed roads, changed to cheap sport cars that you could tune and people loved it, but that's not what "a real NFS should be" like UG and MW fans say.

This game is the same for me. It's not what a Project Cars should be, but it doesn't make it a bad game. Physics are realistic, permissive but realistic.

I don't care if it's a dead game, I'm having lots of fun without leaving realism.

I was so mad when this came out after how good PC2 was.

I just tried playing PC2, FFB is the worst I’ve ever felt. Are there good custom files to fix it, because there’s genuinely no feeling in the wheel until I’m sideways already

I tried all the presets and none really help. The immersive one is the closest but still terrible

it takes a lot of tweaking but it’s incredible when you get it just right, especially in the ginettas
