Are there ANY good racing games anymore?

[CBR6V]

Seriously. This game is killing my hope that we'll ever see a (new) racing game that doesn't completely suck. It's gotten to the point where I'm starting to look backwards.

Have there been any new racing games released since Horizon 3 that wasn't shovelled out half-baked?

AC, ACC, Projectcars 2, IRacing, Automobilista 2. Do I need to go on?

None of these are playable on controller, so yea, please keep going.

I really, really like The Crew Motorfest, you should give it a try !
I hated The Crew I/II because of the flat handlings and empty/copy paste map, but The Crew motorfest is clearly on another level.

I have yet to see a single good racing game in your list that surpasses FH3. Yeah, please do go on.

the crew motorfest is unironically MORE FUN than forza, the first 10min on motorfest makes you smile a lot from the car sounds, while i just had headaches with forza

The Crew Motorfest in terms of realism is on par with something more like Trackmania, than Forza Motorsport. The sounds might be fantastic but it's not what people playing Forza Motorsport want.

Is that even on steam? I hate downloading other launchers like Ubisofts so if it isn't I might just, well y'know, yar-har-fiddle-dee-dee it if you know what I mean.

There are none. It's official, video games is official over.

I have the same question. Looking for a competitive multiplayer simcade racing game that can be viably played with a controller. While the sim racing games listed in the first comment do seem very good for what they are, not everybody is in a position to invest in a full hardware setup for those types of games.

My favourite racing game on PC is Pacer, which is very similar to Wipeout. Its not for everyone, but the gameplay is fantastic. Unfortunately the multiplayer is completely dead.

I would love to have a more mainstream game with a healthy multiplayer scene.

Project Cars 2 and ACC are entirely playable on controller

Literally all of these are playable on controller. Iracing is maybe a bit of a mixed bag but it's doable with some practice. I would even argue that Acc and ams2 play better on controller than forza does. Forza is overdampened and doesn't not allow for any advanced controller settings like Acc does for example.

PC2 is not. The speed sensitive steering is very bad. You have to tune the controller not only per car but also per track. For ACC I can't comment from 1st hand but I can't find any good videos online AT ALL, so I don't think it's viable there either.

I tried PC2 on controller, spent ages trying to configure settings etc. It was a disaster!

Seems like a great game though otherwise - would highly recommend if you have a wheel.

For me, I don't compare open world and track racing.
They are different racing subgenre.

I would agree FH3 is better than 4 and 5.
I don't know any open world racer better than FH3.
So I guess my answer to your question is no.

My favorite arcade track racer is Driveclub.

For simcade track racing, seems GT7 is better than FM8 in its current state.
Hope for lots more patching.

AC, ACC, Projectcars 2, IRacing, Automobilista 2, these are all sim track racers.
I wouldn't even compare them with simcade.

Damn it! you got me wanting to go back and play FH3.
Stop putting good ideas in my head! :)
