after 5 hours playing... this game is a vast improvement over TT2

[SaxonRaider]

Lots of things I like in this, comprehensive history of the TT, and the riders is really nice. Graphics are improved to be a bit more modern. The physics feel good without ruining the difficulty of the original. And the open world for testing your bike and setups is awesome. Its great to be able to drive about on the Isle of man on the actual racing roads whatever route you like at your own pace.
I prefer it over Ride 4.

Babelfisch:
Unfortunately, unlike in TT2, they don't also have classic motorcycles on board. It's a hard punch in the pit of my stomach for ME.

And stop the raindrops - already mentioned in another topic - which don't care about the airflow.

Otherwise, I like what I see on the YT video for the game. I really like the helmet camera because it gives the impression that you can see through it much better because the milk effect has been reduced. But I'm not quite sure because YT is very compressed.

Is the view in the helmet camera really clearer now? That would be one of the main reasons (for me) to switch. Of course, I will only be able to find out what the physics feel like in a self-experiment. Some say it's much better, others say it's just as good/bad and others think it's bad - so there's an opinion for everyone. ;D

yes, helmet camera in TT2 felt like there is tear off on it or was milky. It is clear now but has another filter that is light, but still present. If you played RiMS Racing it is very similar.

Yes theres a few downsides, as others have mentioned, no bugs on windshields, the rain issue which ive not tried yet, no UK measurements, etc... I can look past that tbh as the game is still a vast improvement in general.

The helmet cam is absolutely great now imho. basically very similar if not better than Ride 4's helmet cam. I've never found ride 4 one to be easy, its too floaty for me, but this one feels right, and the view is very good. the windshield glass does look as it should.

Physics wise, think of RiMS if you have that, without the understeer issue. Everything feels spot on to me, maybe slightly too grippy, not sure, some bike riders say its more realistic. You can loose the front, rear, and highside (although that isnt that easy), you can get a wobble on, but that a bit rare too. Overall, handling is slightly more grippy than TT2, but not a huge amount, going over crests your bike wont get airbourne as much as it does in TT2, which, imho, isnt quite as fun, however, the feel of speed is still there. it just looses a little of the feel for speed as its a little less scary than before. definitely theres a few bumps in the track in places to unsettle the bike, but these seem to be not able to throw you off the bike like before as much. kerbs are slightly more forgiving also because of this.

Hope that helps with the physics question.

Thanks for the information, that sounds very positive to me. :-)

we dont use imperial measurements in UK, we use Mph, and Kg and litres which is a mix of Imperial and metric. Many years ago we did use Imperial until we joined the European Union Trade agreement, in which we had to change weights and volumes to metric to comply with the EU regulations. Speed is something that didn't need to change. We use also metres, cm, and mm. Only EU measurement we don't use is Km.

2 races only for me so far. It's very enjoyable. I'm on beginner mode for now. They've already mentioned DLC, but no mention of what it might be. A little bit of scenery popping but yeah.
Isle man up for that. lol

tt1 was better game ull all realize this once uve ran through the content in 2 days and there no multiplayer to speak of
