Hi all,
So I checked out this video available at:
http://www.racer-xtreme.com/video.php
It looks great! I love that 350Z model.. nice.
Anyway, I then downloaded Racer to give it a whirl, and as it comes
installed it seems nothing like the video. I realise there are
downloadable cars and tracks, but what I'm wondering is if the game is
really at a "worth-playing" level yet?
Live For Speed with some of those graphics would be killer.
Hi,
Are you involved in the VRR league?
Richard.

As you know by now, yes. :-)
SO... nobody has any opinions on "Racer"?

Racer is mainly a "car showroom" sim at the moment. It has the best looking
car models of any sim (easily eclipsing even GTR 2002 and the GPLEA, IMO)
but it also has the worst looking cars of any sim. Physics is there in
theory, but unfortunately in practice the driving experience is lacking - a
great sim for tweakers but not at all easy to "pick up and play".
From a car modeller or track modeller perspective it's superb. If that's not
you, well, come back in a year :0)

Yeah, that is the impression I got. I just wanted to see if a solid game
could be revealed through tweaking. I hope it gets finished; it looks like
it has incredible potential!
