Why Project CARS 3 is so different from the first two games

Ойындар

Project CARS 3 has been the subject of heavy debate and often criticism since the game's creators revealed ahead of its launch that it would be less of a simulation than the first two games in the series. In this video we explain why Slightly Mad Studios went for a change of direction, and the key changes that you can notice in Project CARS 3 as a result.

    Not really. The controversy is that the sim has been abandoned. If this game had been a spin-off, and SMS announced that PC4 would be back to sim country, only fanboy idiots would care about the name. Even if SMS had announced that a forthcoming sim would be called something different, who but idiots would care..? It isn’t what anything is CALLED. It’s what it IS...

    Yoshi Kempenaers A lot of the problem is that PC sim players have little understanding or sympathy for console players. Probably jealous that a $400 device can do almost as good a job as the $3000 they blew on a 4K system! Few of them understand that, for all its issues, PC2 was the best multi class sim of all on consoles. If it didn’t please THEM, they come after it with pitchforks, and SMS were obviously stupid enough to listen to them..!

    Juanlllo98 How so? You got a track? Check. You got cars? Check. You got a start? Check. You got a finish? Check. Then you got racing. Plenty of sprint racing got no tire changes. It’s not like 100% of it is Ridge Runner. BTCC was pretty mental high contact racing. Look, I know where you’re coming from, but it’s time to let the name go. Gran Turismo isn’t mostly road cars any more. You see THEIR community trying to lynch Kaz for not changing the name? If this game WAS a great racing ‘simulator’ but called Shift 3, you’d still fkn buy it. And that should tell you all you need to know about how important a name is...

    @@carlweeks2399 Trouble is, there’s no alternative series to ‘shift’ it to! Shift was, and I think remains an EA brand, so it’s not like Bandai could use that name. Truth is, PC3 has more in common with PC2 than it does with Shift, which actually WAS a pretty well put together semi-arcade game. You can hardly blame Bandai for insisting that they retain the franchise name for the last iteration of the series they would publish. Sure, the Project Cars name got it a lot of negative reception from those already playing PC2, but I’d be willing to bet it got them more customers than coming up with a brand new name that would take quite a while for market penetration by standing on its own merits.

But the new stuff, other than Interlagos, maybe, got a VERY Grid-like look and feel.

    Good overview. Some things that aren't mentioned, though: the AI is just as horrible as in PC2. With the highest AI setting, they are impossible to beat on some tracks, and incredibly slow on other tracks. Also, why can't we get money based on how we place in a race? As it is now you get money when you level up, so you get the same amount of money whether you finish first or last. The objective system should be reworked to always reward you when you win races, in addition to the other things (like fastest lap, clean laps etc.). And why couldn't they have tire wear/temps, pit stops, and fuel usage, but with the OPTION to turn it off? That would cater to more people. So their logic is kind of flawed. Anyway, I like the game for what it is - a fun career mode racer where you go through the ranks. And it isn't as arcade as Need for Speed or GRID if you play with a wheel with no assists off. In fact, some cars are so difficult to drive that I have to turn some assists on for them. They spin out immediately if you are not careful with throttle input, and that never happens in arcade games. Things might be different with a controller, though, with all the hidden assists.

    That PIR system (parts of it) is what killed Forza Motorsport / Forza Horizon. Because an MR2 could win from top GT cars like a Skyline, etc. I don't get why every race game (simulation or otherwise) should be accessible to all race game fans. There are enough race games that are accessible: NFS (incl. Shift), Forza (Motorsport and Horizon), GRID, Juiced (in the past), F1 (from Codemasters), etc. I don't have any problems with Project Cars (1), which I'm still playing. (Because there is a lot to do in that game). I don't need another NFS game with a different UI. Every game should maintain it's own character. Like Gran Turismo is more or less doing. Burnout kept his identity, and had success... Only to be killed of by EA.

    I enjoy playing PCARS 3 even though it is nothing like 1 and 2. It's not a sim which is a shame but I didn't think PCARS 1 or 2 were great sims anyway just decent. I would rather play I-racing, ACC or R-Factor 2 when I want a true race simulator experience. I don't think PCARS 3 being an Arcade sim is a loss for sim racing fans. For me it's another Forza Motorsport game but with GT Sport style car physics and handling. I enjoy playing another arcade sim as I think Forza isn't great and I don't have a PS4 to play GT Sport. PCARS 3 is alright in my eyes and I don't understand the hate as the franchise never felt like a true sim in the first place.

    Well, this started by being sold as the best simulator there was, they were all for simulation nothing for arcade, so there's probably where the people now are against them. And when you think of it, there are a lot of fun and with many fans already arcade games already, so one more is not likely to change the game much. They had the chance to be the simulator, the one that is daring to master, the one for real fans. And with this change now, it's likely the real fans go away from it, and the ones who just like to play stay on the mainstream arcade ones. So this is probably why people rage against this change now, as Obi-Wan would say it, [Project CARS] you were the chosen one.

I think PC3 would’ve had people be more forgiving for the change if they had marketed and named the game as a spin off from the main series kinda like what Codemasters are doing with DiRT.

    Finally an unbiased review of PC3. Most reviews are just "PC3 bad" and only focus on how it's a departure from the established formula. Glad you guys took the time to focus on both it's positives and negatives on it's own as well as portraying its turning to more simcade gameplay as something for players to decide if it's a good or bad thing. Personally, I feel like it should have been part of a different franchise or be made a spin-off. Making it a main-line numbered entry would be like if Turn 10 never bothered making the Forza Horizon title and made Horizon 1 be titled Motorsport 5.
