Worth £14.99?

Coming to AMS forum asking if it's worth 15£...
Was this an attempt at trolling ?
What do you think, this is...a pack of Raceroom skins ?
Not at all, I was asking the valued opinion of Race Department members who have played it. Beginning to wish I hadn't bothered.
I think AMS users are pretty friendly and helpful so no need to worry. Some people are sensitive about the gmotor origins but I don't really know why as it has been a great engine and in any case Reiza have made so many improvements and additions in the last couple of years.
You definitely need to donwload the track megapack by Patrick and company , plus the porsche rsr 3.0 and cart extreme mods ls important to have a good/correct ffb settings on the wheels software and graphics seetings, once in the game is pretty straightforward. When you launch the game from steam there is a option to see the users guide, doing a quick read helps a lot.
I start sim racing with iracing, and the big diferrence for me, is how much alive the cars are, what does not mean they more unstable, exactly the opposite, if you drive a car to about 70% of its performance its very easy to drive, doens't matter if it is a f1 from the 60's or a modern road car, but once you start pushing bit more they become alive, and usually very unforgiven when the lack of driving skills comes in to play.
Besides that you have from big heavy trucks to superkarts, f1's to mini copper's. Is a bit like this, if someone wants a good and very credibel simulation of a certain type of racing this game is very good at it, and imo is the most credibel sim avaible to public.

Thanks for the info mate, much appreciated! I've played iRacing so it'll be interesting to see how in compares!
Good job buddy. Definitely a must have for any simmer.
I'm already using crew chief (gonna throw him a few bucks as well, it's awesome!)
Looking forward to trying it with Automobilista later!
Also check the graphics tips section in the manual as for best results you need to setup AA, etc. in the Nvidia/AMD tools rather than in game.
to be honest I wouldn`t buy it for 14.99 .....
... wait till it is for full price .. game is worth it and devs deserve it
Buy it at 1/2 price! (Then get the Season Pass!!!!)
Also, look for the European Endurance Center mods for WEC and GT3. Good stuff. You can also get a Pirelli World Challenge mod which may not mean much in the UK, but it gets me excited!

To be honest mate, AMS is just as good as RRE and you don't have to pay for mods, tracks and liveries. A bargain at that price I would say.
The devs are great too. It is unbelievable, but I feel like these guys really care, like no other devs for any game. Not that the other devs are really bad, but its *different* with these guys. Products great, support is great, mods are great, price is great. They've got my money!
That being said RRE is in my top 3 also, I've managed to buy packs when they pricing has been good and have gotten a LOT of content at decent prices. Also, mod quality is all over the place, and sometimes I can't be bothered to sort it all, so I stick with the big, good stuff for AMS I find here (usually if it has Patrick's name on it!!!).

It's not worth 15,- (but much more)... it's priceless fun and a great simulator!
