I'd wait until Fanatec releases their next base, TS-PC is still almost a 1k with all the peripherals.

 

The benefit of thrustmaster is easily interchangeable rims (the newest one is a larger diameter rally wheel) without charging up the butt like Fanatec does.

all i need is the base and the rim, already have my CSL Elite LC pedals and planing on getting a TH8A/TH8RS .... maybe even the clubsport handbrake if i can afford it :D 

but yeah... i have to save up 1st really want to see what Fanatec are coming out with. I kept seeing something about a DD wheel from Fanatec ...

Honestly it looks a lot more fun than the first game. Story reminds me a lot of NFS Undercover, and its still quite arcadey but looks fun. Not to the degree of Forza Horizon but good enough for casual gaming at a slightly discounted price.

I tried it... I'm buying the game but not for full price, it's like the crew gameplay combined with nfs 2015 physics and a story line similar to fast and furious... The newer ones. It's quite fun imo, and I expected it to be terrible.

it's an okay game. i actually enjoyed playing the trial, but there's a couple of things that bother me about it. not really committed on a full purchase

Only thing I hate in the game is the performance upgrade system (I hated it in the crew as well) ... At least so far that is. Willing to buy it but def not full price

yeah the upgrade system isn't that great. i prefer the last game, just simple fixed upgrades. but they hafta monetize it somehow, it's EA

Expensive game and yet they still put microtransactions in there

Reminds me of gta v. 

On a different note, I was like I'm never buying the game, now I'm trying not to buy it cause I don't want to spend that much money on it xD

I mean I would actually try to get it... but I don't have the money or really even the time to play with it. You guys see how much I've been simracing lately? xD
