Race 07 & GTR2
I just got this bundle pack last night and I was wondering if there was any LFS people playing them?
Bought GTR2 last year. Utterly hated it. Didn't feel natural at all. Same with the Race07 demo.

i play both of them
The only things I like about them is the graphic's and the car selection and the track selection.
I tried playing GTR2, It's fun to just mess around with, but feels.. totally wrong.

That's actually how I felt about LFS the first time I played it (about 5 years ago). I just couldn't get used to the keyboard controls, and the mouse controls seemed so unnatural. That's before I got a wheel. After the wheel came, everything worked beautifully.
i played GTR2 demo long time ago and it just didnt feel so real, of course its fun to put rain and start trying to drift but it just isnt...
I just like the car selection and the track selection in both games. I also like the dynamic weather in the games as well..but I haven't played long enough to tell if the daylight goes to night if it even does...but i know some people hate it..but im saying Race07..is a bit better than LFS..Because it has everything everyone wants to be in LFS..
Can see an ancient debate rearing it's head in this thread

Depends what you want from your game, graphics? physics? models? detail? sounds?

List is endless, i prefer the full package of gtr2 over lfs - guess that means im an arcader

I play RACE07 in a community - the online racing is genuinly better than LFS, much more fun, much higher quality of racing, and when there is contact cars don't hit space like they do on LFS.

u are so bad! U play the Demo of LFS to long and now u even do the GTR² demo long
In GTR2 it does have dynamic day to night changes, with is good for 24H races, especially with the Prototype mods

He said he played the GTR2 demo long ago, which means he played it in the rather distant past, not that he played it a lot.

actually, i just played 2 race weekends and it didnt feel good. so i played few race weekends with the most realistick things i can get, 100% rain and the race starts 23.00 and tryed to drift and then quited playing it. you should try night&100% rain races. pretty fun when u put put the AI to the psycothic in that kinda race
I have GTR2 and GT legends for that matter but never got into the legends.
GTR2 feels too much like ice when turning so I almost never play it.

Erm... how do you set up the steering and car so it actually goes round corners? I can't make them turn.

What are you using to steer? A wheel? If you are using a wheel do you see in the controls where it says Left Right? If you do click the Left option and turn your wheel Left....turn Right with the Right
I ment that the cars are exessively understeering... It's probably got more to do with the car setup (springs, dampers etc) than the actual controller setup.
Post a replay. Whilst setups can cause understeer, it's more likely to be excess steering input or entry speed from you.

Edit: Oooooooooooooooh, GTR2. Well, you're stuffed mate. Sell it on Ebay (about 50p is the value), and buy a car simulator. NFS is quite realistic (in comparison).

In GTR2, correct? It's not you. I'm no slouch when it comes to setups and I found absolutely no middle ground between terminal understeer and massive oversteer. This goes for pretty much all ISI-based games.

You do realize I'll take this line out of context, and use it as a sig?
I KILL YOU!!!

If you want a realistic game with an even better car and track selection and better sounds, go and buy Forza Motorsport 2 (for XBox). A certain someone I know reckons that the tyre model is probably better than any PC sim. And the sounds and everything are all top notch. If you take the aids off and get a wheel, I'm sure it'll feel like a proper sim.
