rfactor 2 VS automobilista 2
alright drivers, whats your favorite race sim right now?

i have to say that im an rfactor2 nut and im torn between this and rf2. , AC and pc2 have them both but automobilista 2 pulls ahead of them by a car or two. i want to see what people prefer any why if possible.

ac has all overall even in the 1st stages was really cheap, without doubt still its one of the most playing sims
acc gt3 and gt4 finest and one of the best looking at night
ams2 gorgeous tracks (most of them) with adictive cars like the mini jcw OMG, improve in the ai like the top 4 places run in a shield position that look like they are fighting for 1st place :R3eRim:
r3e great physX, brilliant ai (most of the time), classic content, superb Sound

AMS 2
AMS 1
RBR with NGP 6

AMS 2 because I dearly love the performance, AI, the FFB, the cars and the tracks
AMS 1 because it's the better rFactor 2 and has the best package of content.
RBR with NGP 6 because Dirt Rally 2.0 was a huge letdown, and Dirt Rally 1 I can dream the tracks. (1200+ hours innit)

There's also Assetto Corsa, rFactor 2 and iRacing.
Assetto Corsa I really love the Nordschleife lobby's and the interface, but the rest I find a bit lackluster
rFactor 2 has 3 great paid tracks: Nord, Le Mans and Sebring. I do not play rFactor 2 anymore cause the development is so slow and I've no clue where they heading too. MP is too late cause that's iRacing's department.
iRacing is awesome for MP and keeping up your iRating, but I don't like the cars and the tracks. Only dearly love the Mazda MX-5, tho.

Chill out little man, and stop making words up when there's no need to.
Now you're being immature. You obviously dont like Americans which is totally fine bc as an American I don't give a rat's a💥💥 but dont come here trying to offend other people. This guy only asked you to relax.

You're projecting and ASSuming there, which isn't a good look.

Product Fact: It's called Automobilista 2, or AMS 2.

I think Pcars3 should be called
Billistaman mk3
that would make everyone very happy
or make sim racers into an angry mob
either way its a win win

p.s. Marius
AMS1 is the better version of rF1, not rF2

Our Gentlemen Club Sim-Racing League hosts ACC for GT racing, but I prefer more variety of car series and love open-wheel, Radicals or F1. We use the simracing.gp platform and are eager to see Automobilista 2 supported in the near future so we can host an F1 season. We realize that Automobilista 2 still has issues but we believe in Reiza Studios because we see them releasing updates on a regular basis. I own all the content for Raceroom and love its sound. I still enjoy AC and see it improving all the time thanks to modders. I enjoy the physics and force feedback of RF2 even though the graphics are somewhat dated.

I know, but rF1 is obsolete, so I compare it with rF2

Why ask such a question? Ask in an AMS2 board, people will say AMS2. Ask on a rF2 board, people will say rF2.

Why does it matter what other people think? 90% of the people who will respond have zero real life track experience. 50% won't even have a driver's license. People get used to things and enjoy them. Trying to tell those people what is "realistic" or not is like trying to tell 50% of the US population that there was no voter fraud. Regardless of the truth, they don't care they have their own truths. That's the majority of the racing sim community.

Be happy we have so many options and they all have something to offer someone. It wasn't that long ago that all we had were variations of rF1.

I will preface this by saying that I enjoy open wheeler, prototype endurance racing, and Historic open wheel racing. I personally dislike GT cars newer than 1960s as some of the 60s gt cars are actually pretty fun to drive, but not really the newer ones that we see in games like ACC or even the gt cars in AMS2.

That being said I do like ACC content better than rFactor 2 as I can setup and run a race in VR in under 2 minutes. rFactor 2 takes ages to load and ultimately looks super washed out in a VR headset despite looking good on a monitor. I am not sure why it does, but nothing I do changes it and the headset I use does not look washed out in any other game. AMS2 is simply the easiest to get into with the content it has.

However I have a different problem with AMS2. AMS2 has a lot of tracks and cars. It scratches both my open wheeler itch and my historic racing love. However they are generic due to brand cost and the variety in a lot of the eras is very lacking. Not to mention most of the tracks really only go back to the 1970s when i really would like to see more tracks from the 40s-60s. With rFactor 2 I can find a good mod to get an open wheeler of really any generation I want. The f1 1991 mod has the full lineup and you can have all of the tracks setup at the correct date with excellent track detail and better ffb and physics than AMS2. I can drive a lot of historic tracks and at the end of the day there is a lot more high quality content. It can be troublesome to sort though the bad content, however if you know what content is good and have it, rFactor 2 simply has more.

With AMS2 being locked away from modding to the extent of adding tracks and cars, it ultimately is tied to the developers progression. I like the content it has a lot, but compared to how I have rFactor 2 setup with good content and variety within the races I like, it simply ends up being better than AMS2 for my sim racing desires. Obviously this will be different for people who like different styles of racing than me. The AI is comparable in both titles at the moment each with its own issues which ultimately balance each other out. Which AI you prefer is about which issues bother you the least.

rFactor has a better FFB feel, but I would argue that it is unrealistic in that it is exaggerated. AMS 2 doesn't exaggerate like rFactor 2 which makes the wheel feel better, but A lot of people prefer the exaggerations due to the fact that they do not feel the motion with their body. In real life you feel things through your ass more than your hands which sim racing lacks due to most people not having motion platforms. Ultimately FFB preferance based off of these games is do you want detail or do you want realism. They are both fantastic in the FFB feel.
