Early Experimental Preview of Career Concept

I mean, that also happens in Freeroam, which I'm assuming is a bug on my end, but it's good to know it's coming back to Career.

 

thank you for taking our feedback into consideration its cool to see a rather large game company do that

 

I can't wait for all the goodies that are coming to career mode!

The error is in the " ` " screen, I don't know if it's one of my inactive mods or not. I am not on that PC right now so I can't get a picture even if I knew how.

About the PC cooking. One area of a PC that can be upgraded easily is the RAM. If you need to update the minimum spec, I would suggest increasing the RAM requirement. Upgrading from an 8GB RAM to a 16GB RAM is inexpensive. You could either get another 8GB RAM card for around 40$ or a new 16GB RAM card for around 60$. I believe this is achievable for everyone. Although you would have to give multiple month notice over numerous posts and in-game warnings to alert as many people as you could. Possibly have a community vote about it

Just out of curiosity. Why didn't you guys go with an FWD, RWD, AWD, and 4x4 lineup? A low-end hopper could have been the 4x4. Granted the interior looks like someone used that ventablack paint. But I (, in my limited knowledge,) would think that updating the interior textures wouldn't be horrifically hard.
(Vantablack paint IRL)

Agreed.

 

Was playing yesterday, and couldn't help shake the feeling that I really don't like the speed camera/red light camera system, even if it's something that exists irl, it's definitely my least favorite part of driving lol.

I also found out, by accident, that if your vehicle doesn't have plates, you won't be fined, with a specific message popping up.

It's those kind of details that make me love this game. I'm sure there will be consequences to operating like that in the future (Career Freeroam cops one day?), but for now, it's really cool that there's a way around it.

 

with the career mode police if we don't have plates we should get fined

 

While I was watching Broadbent's stream the other day and he was having trouble with the GPS coming out of the gas station I had a thought... Is there a final plan for the sat nav implementation?

Personally I would like to see something more realistic, where instead of the big magical arrows we have just vocal cues and the display from a built in nav/HUD or the BeamNav windshield unit. It would be mostly the same basic system that a rally codriver would require so the core functionality is something we're going to need someday anyway.

Like most things in career mode I would hope to see this hypothetical system tied to settings so the player can have a more casual experience if desired.

 

I’ve actually secretly wished that we could toggle a setting for the arrows, so we get a more realistic experience. With the new CCF dashboard, you can do this, if you use the interior screen (you can also search for any POI or event, like the diner in WCUSA).

 

Yes. Just yes. This needs to be existing in 0.32. Yes.

 

Have you ever driven the "easy car" at high speed? It's harder to drive fast than the other 2 cars! I started my career with the ETK ONCE, and I will not be doing that again.

Also, that error went away when I cleared my cache to make sure it was cleared. I have no idea what could have caused it.

Also, I feel like putting a stop sign camera by the police station intersection would be a fitting location.

Also, are you guys working on the AI? They almost always go 10MPH under the limit, and at certain spots change lanes into you.

 

It’s kinda silly ‘cause there’s more and more complaints about the AI, as if it was getting dumber very update

Realistic driving: every other person on the road is dumb

 

Yeah, but they don't actively try to kill you and themselves.

 

Balkan and Russian drivers:

 

A little of topic but... did the vehicle design crew know that "Wendover" could easily be turned into "Bendover" when they named it?

Back on topic, are AI improvements coming in 0.33? Or can't you say?

 

It's probably (I don't know how it wouldn't be) named after Wendover, Utah.

 

I don't know if anyone has already reported this, but the Mount Wallis Drift mission is not working

 

I did. Sorry to burst your bubble.

 

I really haven't found the ai to be acting badly lately, though i do wish they was more of a challenge on races and other events.

 

Greetings.
I just want to say that i have been playing the experimental career mode in experimental VR mode and its experiMENTAL fun!

You do a better job at truck simming then games devoted to truck simming. Having those fluid mechanics in liquid filled trailers feels great swashing around.

My main problem with the game is the force feedback for direct drive wheels.
I have the Logitech pro direct drive wheel. The problem is when driving at low speeds, its almost like i can feel every tread in the tire as it moves over the surface of the road. Causes huge red quick successive spikes in the FFB graph.
I try turning both smoothing options up to around 200 and still there.

The only way to somewhat manage this is to turn the force of the wheelbase down to about 4nm. I still get the crazy spikes but its not as hard on the equipment and i lose other sensations putting the force down that low.

Keep up the awesome work! VR support is fun, hope you don't regret adding it.

C-ya

 

That's the tire design we have here) maybe someday they'll change its geometry and the wheels will be like wheels in feel)
