[Captain n00by]

I have AC and I like it, but which of these two is the better deal?

Thx in advance.

Automobilista 2 is the blue pill
rFactor2 is the red pill

The fanboyism and blindness to what is good and acceptance of biased crap threw on forum is the blue pill
The understanding that each sim do good and bad at diffferent aspects and each sim have its pros cand cons in relation to physiics is the red pill.

Btw as you mentioned rF2 as "the red pill": rF2 is far from perfect and have a lot of exploits that never were dealt with or even attempted to be dealt with and the difference in quality between the cars ffrom base content and DLCs and from DLC to DLC is absurd depending on the comparison of quality in terms of physics

So in short, drive each sim for what the cars deliver and enjoy or not and stick to the one sim of your choice.

On the other hand , the red pill doesn´t have to be perfect. It just has to be the red pill.

I like blue over red.

Communism never tasted good to me.

Although I wouldn't say "no" to an Italian sports car or motorcycle in red.

rFactor2 for the physics. Don't buy it for the broken trash that is multiplayer.

AMB2 for being a more solid game, but the driving isn't as good, and slightly less fun and exciting.

Well said, my beef is rf2 has so much potential never tapped into. But now no development, im waiting on The Last Garage & AC EVO to be released. I hope neither are released as EA hope 1 is at least released as 1.0, as that shows confidence in their product.

Assetto Corsas Evo will probably be rubbish to begin with, or very limited. I trust Kunos but it will be a long term thing. Eventually will be awesome.

New trailer looks good, just need to know now what features EA will come with VR, triple screen ect..

Seeing as its not been mentioned:

AMS2 - Performance more solid for visuals, less modding ability (cant create new tracks or very well make car models) patch 1.6 soon to come bringing better AI etc.

Physics feedback is great and you can use custom FFB presets which easy matches other sims (unsure if people use this feature).

RF2 - On par with AC for modding IE loads and everything can be modded tracks as well. Great FFB - however can run your system into the ground a lot more with lesser CPU core usage - so expect to tone down some visual settings for performance gain.

I have both.

Rfactor 2 had huge potential but has alot of issues setting up.
Auto Wheel rotation broken.
AMS 2 would be the better bet.
But they all like to gouge people with DLC.
The sorry greedy state of racing games today.

Narcissism and greed rising together,joined at the hip.

Licencing cost too much. Plus every sim plays it too safe and has the same content, jack of all trades master of none.

I think they should do more sims with fictional cars that are based on real cars, and fictional tracks. So the sim has rFactor 2, ACC, iRacing like physics but fictional cars and tracks. The original Gran Turismo tracks where awesome, so like that with modern graphics and physics. Could be really good rather than same old cars and tracks in every sim.

rFactor 2 is more of a sim, but has being abandoned. It is like 8-9/10 for driving experience.
AMS2 is more simcade as people might say, its good I say 6/10 for driving experience. It feels wierd to me, like the car is going to spin out. I never quite feel in control of the car.

Or as "people biased hot takes" might say.

Yes a little biased.

rFactor 2 is worse in every way except handling.

If AMS2 sorts the handling out then it will be the best. It is the most polished and complete package.

If we compare the handling between all sims and take someone favorite against someone else favorite one could say rF2 is the simcade one in copmparison to another favorite, lets say, iracing.

In the end it is "mostly" bias as none of them really do it "right" and have plenty of flaws, issues and wrongs all around.

Others have already said but get them both, you won't be sorry! I love rF2 more than any other game but I totally love AMS2, as well. Someone said it best, rF2 drives way better, AMS2 is the better 'game' (i.e. getting through menus, quickly jumping into the race, don't have to navigate the workshop, etc). For value, with rF2 you can get the base game and then just download mods via the workshop. They are not nearly as good as the paid content, though, but can get you through until you are inspired to get the good stuff.
