Finally got myself a G29 after contemplating for so long. What are the current racing games to go for? I only know of these few series exist, Assetto Corsa, Project Cars, Forza and Grid. Don't even know which are the newer ones. I only played Grand Turismo in my classic PS1 and PS2. That's about it. Any racing game to recommend for a new comer to racing sim or simcade? smile.gif

Assetto Corsa [2014]
+ cheap
+ tonnes of mods
+ physics and FFB
+ dorifto friendly
- dated graphic but you can improve it with mods

Assetto Corsa Competizionnneeezzz [2019]
+ nice graphic and sound
+ more polished driving and racing experience
+ physics and FFB
- limited to GT cars and tracks
- non-moddable

Automobilista 2 [2020]
+ cheap
+ better ProjectCars physic
+ there's Demo you can try on Steam
- have that weird ProjectCars handling
- car and track selection is not that great
- non-moddable

Also there's rFactor 2, I heard the UI is finally usable now. lel

Thanks. Will try out Asetto Corsa and Automobilista 2 as you suggested. Also looking at Forza Horizon 5. No idea what to expect from all these but I guess Forza is definitely arcade instead of anything sim? hahaha... Anyway thanks again for the recommendation. cheers.gif

okay... found out a few things after playing around with the G29 for a few days. It feels good to be playing with a wheel instead of a gamepad. So much more precise control. Also come with some sort of learning curve. So much settings to tinker with (when playing AC). Currently am just clamping it on to my desk. No issue while gaming with that but I had also just bought a simple stand so I can just fold it up instead of packing everything every time after the session. Also, my office chair kept on moving when I step on the pedals. aisehhh...

Guys, what did you all set for the wheel turning radius? I'm having trouble trying to make sharper corners or controlling the cars using 900° on my wheel. You all set it to 540° or stick to 900°?

In what game? I usually use 900 or the car default turning radius.

Well, so far I'm only playing AC and FH5. Both also having issues making tighter turns. Maybe I'm just not yet used to the steering wheel. It's much manageable with 540° turning radius compared to 900. Guess I'll be sticking to 540 for the mean time. lol...
