    Not really, no. They're fun in their own right but they don't come anywhere near rFactor 2 if you're looking for realism.

    Assetto Corsa will be a nice little sim. When it's released.

    You just went for flash graphics over realism and ffb mate.

    did you play project C.A.R.S?
    what game can you compare it in terms of realism?

    I hope it will huge step forward from shift 2? between shift 2 and rFactor 2 would be nice spot with that visuals :p

    I've had pCARS since day one mate. While I enjoyed it for a while, it took a sudden turn from being a community project when a "mysterious" investor stepped in. Every new build suddenly churned out myriad of new cars and track on weekly basis. Some of the early models of cars (Caterhams) were so beautifully crafted and then suddenly we get a new car every week and multiple tracks as well. Some of the tracks were pretty much finished article which just tells me that SMS recycled their shift tracks.

    While the game was still fun to play, the AI was pretty poor at times, but that's to be expected in this early stage. Sounds are amazing in pCARS, I have to say and also it has all my favourite circuits, bar Dijon :(

    I haven't touched pCARS since I got myself rFactor 2 for my birthday at the end of March. You just can't compare the 2 when it comes to feel. Sure, pCARS looks and sounds better and has more content right now. Well, maybe not true about the content because rFactor 2 has a lot of community made content. But the feel and realism of rFactor 2 is just on another level. Seriously, if you haven't tried it, give it a go. The FFB will blow you away, you feel everything the car is doing underneath you. and the tire physics are again much better than anything out there.

    From what I gather after chatting to our member Nismo, Assetto Corsa should be the game with a million dollar look and physics and ffb of rFactor 2. It'll be worth checking out.

    Don't get me wrong, I know it's pre alpha. but I've played the game from october to march and the ffb didn't improve one bit, if anything it went backwards sometime in march. and for it to be anything like rFactor ffb they'll have to start from scratch. which I don't think they'll do.
