Judging from the rest of your post that speaks volumes about the game.
On the contrary... N4 is the first game in the series where I can tell where
the car is going without nescessarily having to look.
You probably still are... won't help you much unfortunately.
The why don't you guys start showing the cars a little more respect and
learn to take it easy with the loud pedal. If you can't keep it pointing the
right way down the track: SLOW DOWN!!
A car on the edge of traction will always be unstable <bad Scotty accent>Ya
cannit chainge the lows of physics"</bad Scotty accent>. More physics means
less liberties... i.e. the need to drive the cars properly becomes more
acute. Try a similarly scary amount of power on bias ply, threaded tyres in
a 1000lbs chassis sometime and learn to be thankfull for the inertia 3000lbs
of dry weight provides. Not to mention the effect of modern racing slicks
and chassis aerodynamics.
Didn't even notice it anymore after about 3 hours with the game. Look at the
track, not the wheel.
Needs time... I bet the early days with N3 weren't that great either when
people were inexperienced and didn't have their connections sorted. You've
got a lot of people "having a go" now... they won't stick around and only
those who can competently drive the tracks and have good connections will
remain over time.
Hmmm... I guess a case can be argued, lack of peripheral vision and what
have you. Then again... the real guys have their head strapped down, don't
they? So even the look buttons in***pit view could be considered
"unrealistic".<g>
All I can say is... one gets used to it. Sound is a big clue.
Put in the effort, get the reward. Try ReVolt for instant fun.
Don't know... depends who you choose to identify yourself with.
Bottom line... Papyrus created a game for us to practise getting to grips
with this new simulation technology on (which, apparently, they lost money
on) two years ago. More than time enough to get used to it's quirks and sort
out any online problems. You being caught behind the times today can hardly
be considered to be either their or N4's fault.

Well, f*ck you too! :) Why should I not be allowed to use my damn Roof-cam
view if I'm HORRIBLE in the***pit? Okay, BEYOND horrible. I'm a hazard!
Oh, like it even matters. I can't race online because of the damn copy
protection problem requiring me to use a noCD hack!

I agree 100 percent. Love the BGN short tracks.

I'm still pissed that BGN is dropping South Boston, Myrtle Beach, and the
Nashville half miler this season! :( Those were three great tracks!

Some people do nothing wrong.
The problem is, they do nothing.
And THAT is wrong.

hey, at least the cars "turn left" the way they're supposed to :)
>> > I cant take it anymore.
I found N4 more natural to drive than N1, N2 and N3 put together. The
chassis adjustments give you alot of control to change things to make
them more your speed.
Take the caster out if you like. it won't "turn left" on you. of
course, you won't be very fast, but you can't have it all :)
The looser the car, the faster it can go!
