It's exactly the same. Which is disappointing, and confirms my worst fear of AC's MP.
Amp seems to enjoy being overly sensitive to "casual racism" (whatever that means). He might rage if I call you Norwegian as it's identifying you as someone who has citizenship in Norway, rather than simply identifying you as a person who lives on earth.
Except, literally 5 minutes ago, AC posted https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/103005/AC/AC_online.pdf on Facebook...
Except it's not profitable for them to have users that buy little content and stay for a long time. That's why the schedules are designed how they are. To get as many new people in the system "for cheap". Then they feel limited/restricted by the current content available. They buy stuff out that fit the schedules that they want to drive. Then they shortly realize that iRacing isn't the right fit for them, and then they abandon it.
THAT process is how iRacing makes money. Then, for the people who do stick around for longer than 1 season, they shuffle the schedules around to ensure that everyone eventually ends up needing to buy all the content (or sit out a week with their game effectively dormant.)
That's why they set introductory prices so low. To get more casual scrubs in the door, spending money, and then ignoring iRacing for something superior.

At least you can admit it and stop the charade.
The people that hate Top Gear are the people who love to be offended and feed off of the attention and acting out the role of the offended.
People also say that iRacing has good physics.
People don't know what they're talking about.
Since the iRacers decided that you're either with them or against them.
The fanboys would descend from the heavens, and try to come up with all kinds of reasons why I'm doing it wrong. They'd claim my wheel is setup incorrectly or that I'm driving it wrong or some other kind of nonsense. They're able to somehow convince themselves that iRacing has decent physics, is it a stretch to think that they wouldn't also fabricate some kind of rationale as to why my correct opinion is wrong.

So you're complaining because your computer can't run a modern graphics engine well, but can run NR2003 graphics just fine?
Fast and Furious: iRacing Drift
Why? So that the iRacers can continue the witch hunt of trying to silence/persuade all the dissenters?
No thanks.
You make the assumption I'd use my old account (singular of those 3) and pay $12 or whatever for a month, instead of getting a super cheap trial.
Also, why would I use my real name when I know mouth breathers like you would stalk?
Regardless, lets move on from this conversation as I know what I know is correct, and what you think is not.

Again... you make the assumption that it was years ago that I last tried iRacing.
Would you call CS 1.6 dead? Valve hasn't put out a patch for that in forever, yet there's 30,000 people playing it.
I don't know what you'd consider dead. Dead would mean no patches and no users. When there are active leagues running races, with full grids.. it's hard to call that "dead".
Will you stop jumping to the conclusion that it's been years since I've tried out iRacing?
That said, after the last time I tried it and it was evident that they still were making no attempts to make their tyre model anything less than utter shit.. I decided that it's not worth trying again.
When LFS ceases to have leagues which pull full grids of cars, then it'll be dead.
Until then, it's not.
That's really it. I can go between LFS and AC with ease because the tyre model is more correct. iRacing's is just garbage, and when I tried rFactor 2, it seemed to go down the same "slippery == realistic" nonsense that iRacing follows. Nevermind the FFB was horribly incorrect.
The last time Scawen showed "just a preview", there's been rant threads about that now for 5 years in Scirocco+Rockingham.
I don't think Scawen is foolish enough to make the same mistake again.
Obviously forces view.
Guys, this is the level of reading comprehension that American schools teach.
