NetKar pro Formula KS2 - I want that feeling again

    Hey guys

    I bought NetKar pro before I purchased Assetto Corsa, in fact it was after driving the Formula KS2 in that sim that I booted up Steam straight away and threw money at the screen for Assetto Corsa, thinking "If kunos made this (Formula KS2 in NK pro), then Assetto Corsa must surely be able to provide a similar experience with more updated graphics and some extra bells and whistles.

    And let me just be VERY clear so I dont get any hate, I am so impressed with Assetto Corsaso far, its so fun and stable and it has sooooo much promise, its my sim of choice. But I am not getting that same feeling from the Lotus Exos or any other car to be honest, were I feel like i'm strapped to a bloody rocket and am fighting to keep control of it.

    I have just bought Game Stock Car Extreme, they have a car in that game that gives me that death ride kind of feel and its the V12 open wheelers, they are fracking crazy to drive and that's where I personally get the most enjoyment from these sims.

    So I was just wondering if anyone else here remembers that car from NKpro, and if anyone else is missing that death ride kind of driving from Assetto Corsa. I am sure it will come with more tracks and new cars, and i'm patiently waiting as I know its low on the list of things do get done :)

    Multiplayer cough cough ;)

    Anyway, Good luck Kunos, you guys rock, Its your sim's (NKpro & AC) that have really got me excited about the racing sim as a genre. So Thank you.

    AC has some great attributes

    but I don't get very good ffb in AC

    it feels canned with the road noise effect / skid / curb effects so I don't like to use those,
    I don't know if they are temporary measure or those canned options are here to stay

    the ffb feels basic and disconnected eg not enough DIRECT ( un-canned ) tire feel

    however there is a good feeling of car weight & inertia in the ffb

    looking at replays the car physics seem solid but it dosnt fully translate to the ffb to well
    (the replays are totally visually beautiful also )

    just my opinion

    this could be something why you are not favouring the "feel" you get with AC when comparing to other sims

    early days yet maybe kunos have some updates to ffb up their sleeve

    Right. I don't usually respond to benign silliness on the forums but, boy, do people write a lot of rubbish. "Death ride experience"? And he's serious about it.

    Lol wow what happened to this forum. It used to be a nice place. Such a shame.

    Thank you to the two people who replied with productive comments, at least I'll keep some faith in this forum.

    well, to explain my comment:

    first you complain that the exos is like a death ride, to after that say that you liked the KS2 because it gives you a death ride feeling. That makes it pretty hard to find a point in your post.

    I have no hard feelings against you, I just say what I think.

    I thought the point of the post quite clear enough. I love the Exos personally, but just give the FVA F1 a (re)try for (re)comparison. THAT's what he's after. Each to their own!

    Yes, I really don't like some posters comments. Seriously who are you to act so superior and so fanboy protective when even good constructive feedback are given? be more constructive or just leave your sarcasms and stupid judgments at the door... we are all here to make this sim even more amazing. What you like it or not, constructive critiques are good for everybody, they help to make this game better.

    so, he wants more downforce?

    I think that while the Exos is rapid, the FVA F1 is just brutal in its acceleration and violent in its braking capabilities. I retried it recently and the difference is quite marked and very exciting to drive. To be honest, it's probably too much for this sim racer for more than a handful of laps!

    Happy lapping all!

    Out of interest, has anyone made a (necessarily rough) comparison of KS2 with ExS1 laptimes?

    I might have a look tonight.

    I have opposite opinion on FFB (as for Lotus Exos S1 and KS2 feeling). I had always more troubles to handle KS2 than Exos S1. I feel big difference in these two sims in feel of tyre locking while braking. AC seems to me to give much more info about tyre locking, therefore threshold braking is for me in AC easier than in nKP. Overall I find AC FFB better. BTW I have been playing nKP since 2010.

    there is nothin to compare it on. except if someone makes a track mod for both AC and NKP

    Quite true! That's why I said 'necessarily rough'. I was thinking of comparing the two at Nurburgring, but given the differences in the two versions, it's probably meaningless...I'm still curious though ;)

    its nothing to do with the laptimes . NKpro is epic, FVA is a ****ty arcade. and i'm afraid AC is in somewhere between them.

    If it's not clear from my OP I am new to sim racing, so apologies if my terminology doesn't convey the point I'm trying to make.

    Paul Howarth, you used a good term, "Brutal"....I am looking forward to the addition of a really brutal open wheeler☺

    The KS2 in netkar feels more harsh and brutal than the Exos in AC but I can feel what's is doing so much more than the Exos, so it ends up being much more rewarding to drive.

    Anyway, I'm so excited to be here watching the development so early on of this sim, it's very cool.

    Thanks for the posts guys☺

    Haha, nice and subtle :D Can everybody please stop being so damn sensitive about... well basically about EVERYTHING? God... we already have an admin that is taking care of the overreacting part...

    The KS2 is a little more powerful and has more downforce than the Exos, on one hand. On the other, NKPro has a little less input lag than AC. Not saying the lag is massive in AC either but it's noticable and, at least for me, has an impact on the driving sensation in these super direct open wheelers.
