PC2 Project Cars 2 Leagues (merged)

[Rob]

I know we are all excited for this release. What I don't know is how many people intend to a) play it on the xbox one and b) would like to join some sort of a formal league here at Race Department.

There are so many possibilities, I've had to calm myself down from getting lost in them. However, my main passion, IndyCar, will probably not be able to be run until the DLC with the ovals comes to the Xbox One.

That said, what sort of series would you like to see? Personally, ones that come to mind are Tudor United Sports Car Series, WEC, British Touring Car, and DTM. One of these could fill the gap for me until IndyCar is possible, but others may have better ideas.

Please indicate below if you are interested and what sort of times you are available and which series' you prefer. We could follow the actual schedule of many a series, due to the timing of the release. Personally, if they get the ovals out before IndyCar starts, I'll probably turn my focus there, but nothing would prevent running another alongside.

The anticipation is killing me!

I've bought it already off ShopTo but they sold the game to me when they were out of stock, so i got reimbursed and got the game for free. I dont intend spending more money on something i'm getting for free

Is anyone finding that the game is more stable in multiplayer the latest couple of patches?

We ran a test for our IndyCar League on Saturday and everyone connected fine and no disconnects so things are looking much better now. Our previous test post patch 5 was a disaster.

Questions added to race thread

 

[Ben McCluskey]

1. Adam is now a real threat for the championship after algarve but can he finally mount a championship challenge?
Well Ben hasn't picked him as favourite to win, so yeah!
Go team snakes!!!

2. Hard tyres seemed tricky to handle last time out do you think they are worth using?
I think it was more Algarve than hard tyres. The track is naturally super slippery, however this wasn't helped by the hards. Each car experiences them differently. I know the Audi struggles with rear grip but can get tyres to work in really any conditions.

3. Wet weather is rumoured to be making a return at the next round do you welcome this?
Yeah I'm happy, I'd rather it be as wet as possible.

4. Bathurst is an altitude track is there any hope for the Audi and Lamborghini?
Bathurst isn't about the performance of the car. of course it will help. but if you have natural pace and keep it away from the walls you'll have a very strong chance at the podium.

Maybe we can finally start some GT3 racing back up? I know we probably won’t have great numbers to begin with but I’m sure more people will come if we can race with some stability.

Not Now That You've Asked The Question. Ill Be Cursed Now Really Hope I Can Carry On The Good Form.

2. Hard tyres seemed tricky to handle last time out do you think they are worth using?

No, They Are Useless. Unless The Tracks Hotter Than The Sahara Desert

3. Wet weather is rumoured to be making a return at the next round do you welcome this?

Mehhh Just More Puddles To Jump In

4. Bathurst is an altitude track is there any hope for the Audi and Lamborghini?

In The Race Power Wont Mean As Much And Will Be Whoever doesn't crash wins.

 

[Marksest112]

In (whenever we do it)

1. Adam is now a real threat for the championship after algarve but can he finally mount a championship challenge?
I expect he will get more wins and he will definitely be in the top 4. Depends how many points benji takes off him.

2. Hard tyres seemed tricky to handle last time out do you think they are worth using?
No. They were horrible.

3. Wet weather is rumoured to be making a return at the next round do you welcome this?
Oh really? First I've heard of it. Not properly raced in the wet on this game, so will be fun.

4. Bathurst is an altitude track is there any hope for the Audi and Lamborghini?
Real drivers don't moan about stuff like that, they just get on with it and pick up what they can. Deep down though i hope they stuggle because I seem to be well on the pace here.

Looks like it if he continues to practice like this and have good pace in the races, benji isn’t far of either so will they get in each other’s way instead of attacking Gaz?

2. Hard tyres seemed tricky to handle last time out do you think they are worth using?

They were crap

3. Wet weather is rumoured to be making a return at the next round do you welcome this?

Will add something different so up for that as long as it’s proper rain and not drizzle Adam?

4. Bathurst is an altitude track is there any hope for the Audi and Lamborghini?

Seems actually pretty close on top speed the m6 is a monster but the rest are fairly close should be a good race

 

[Liam Stead]

Still had no email unfortunately, so another week i'll have to miss. I get paid Friday so if the copy doesn't get delivered before Wednesday next week i'll go out and buy another copy. Sorry.

No need to be sorry Liam your place is safe we are just gutted for you but hopefully you can return next week as we have a good grid now

I know I've raced Gunner quite a lot before. But he never got the better of me .

 

[Ben McCluskey]

Sorry about my lag in the feature race. it never usually does this.
Reset it for the sprint race and it seemed to be fine.

I just joined a league for Mondays on the PS4. Ran last monday with 14 people no issues at all. Even the pit strategy worked. I think I may be done racing on the Xbox. If this league starts up I may come back depending on my work and home schedule.

 

[Marksest112]

I think I’m going to do some DSRL until this kicks back off. From looking at a lot of other league forums it seems the game is a lot more stable now.

2. We have tried hard and soft tyres in last two races are you in agreement the softs produce better racing?
