No, I'm not inclined to spend any more money on it, to be honest. Right now, PC2 is giving me plenty of fun.

I think the AC ultimate edition is £20 for ps4 - just about the best bargain since the £20 I spent on GPL in 1998.
I really like PC2 but the historics in AC are slightly more challenging to drive and each have very different characteristics, making for a more believable experience. |

From what I've read, it's still a mess.
Assetto Corsa Competizione is pretty impressive though. If you like GT3s. |

I drive PCARS2 and Assetto Corsa (the original, not competzione) I don't notice any bugs in my daily use , more performance issues than anything. But I'm not a PC hardware expert and may be able to do some tuning in the future. On my Pimax 5k VR HMD the performance is not fabulous on my mid range system but still very immersive.

Oh and it was just on sale on steam for Golden Week - $12.99 USD and $17.99 for deluxe edition. I have 4 licenses all bought on sale for LAN play. Currently only have 2 sim rigs but working on #3 with a direct drive wheel

I'm still having a lot of fun with PC2 Rob. It's arcady and it's there's nothing like the skill of the old GPL involved but, knowing you, I think you'll like it. The chance to run on the current LM track (or the 60's version) in a variety of modern and historic machinery is probably too good for you to miss. I don't think you'll like AC, it did little for me. I have no bugs at all with PC2. I have a decent spec of PC, but you will definitely need a wheel and pedals. None of that old GPL keyboard or keypad nonsense!

AC is basically all I play.
I own a few sims (Automobilista 2, Project CARS etc), but AC just gives me the most lifelike driving feel that is possible through a £140 steering wheel (all things considered). If you want to get really really into it there is a huge modding scene too where the entire sim is basically being overhauled way beyond what the original developers intended. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9gsC5vB1Eg https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NckNuNkbDYA |

I LOVE PC2.
Have it on PS4 and its far better in terms of graphics, sounds and physics than Gran Turismo. Not noticed any bugs in it on PS4 either. I cant comment about PC though... ...be interested to hear the differences between AC and PC2 on PS4 though...I was contemplating getting it at some point |

Those where the days remember the old Ten Tenths GPL Championship. Well it is downloaded and install. I have not had chance to have a look at it yet as I have been working all day.
I have had to invest in joy-pad as my wheel got dumped when we moved last year and I can't afford to by a wheel at present. Hopefully I will get chance to have a quick play this evening. |

One thing though, in even light rain, the circuits 'puddle up' ludicrously quickly (within 2 laps of old Silverstone) and they can really throw your car off line, while the AI cars just serenely drive through it. Annoying.[/QUOTE]
One of my biggest beefs with PCars2. |

Yes, that's absolutely right. Huge aquaplane causing puddles inside two laps of lightish rain and as you say, all of the A1 drivers suddenly become 'regenmeisters'.....
