I felt every slip in every turn, every time I aquaplaned on a wet surface, and every time an opponent bumped my car. To say that they have nailed the controller support is an understatement. Slightly Mad Studios has focused a lot on making this iteration more realistic for controller-based players and making it more accessible. In fact, I had to turn to my controller for this review after some technical difficulties with the wheel, but that might also be a good thing for Project CARS 3. As soon as I reach the hypercars and the 2015 Ferrari LaFerrari, I felt every little bit of horsepower flowing through my hands again, and that's even with a controller. As I progressed in my career, I got access to better cars that give me a completely different feeling, thankfully. Starting off in the lower-powered cars like the 1999 Mitsubishi Lancer Evo VI and the 2016 Honda Civic Type R feels very slow, and it's hard to get a real feeling for the cars. Of course, it's possible to get the upgrades by just completing challenges and races, but it takes far less time to earn enough the cash to do it.
#Project cars 3 screens upgrade
There is tons of content in this mode, and I don't have to drive every single race to upgrade to the next level, as I can pay my way to higher levels by spending a relatively modest amount of in-game currency. As in most racing games, the career mode consists of various upgradable classes. I'm happy to calm the nerves of sim-fans a bit after playing the game for review: it is still very much a simulation.Īt the beginning of the game, early in the career mode, it still feels a little arcadey. A few weeks ago, I was fortunate enough to get my hands on the preview version of the game, and I will admit right away that it scared me a little bit in the sense that the game was heading more in an arcade-like direction. That is also what I get, for the most part. It literally has simulation in its name, and that is what the community expects. Project CARS (Community Assisted Racing Simulation) has been a favourite among sim racers around the world from day one. Now the studio is finally back with its third game in the series, but has the new focus on content taken away too much from the sim feeling? Let's find out.
The formerly groundbreaking weather system doesn’t feel as convincing or look as good as other modern dynamic weather systems like that of F1 2020, and the original game’s alarmingly violent crashes and car-to-car collisions have been smoothed off to make everything feel neutered, which is admittedly par (or should I say car?) for the course these days.It has been nearly three years since we were treated to the fantastic sim racing game Project Cars 2 from Slightly Mad Studios. When all’s said and done, however, there’s a simple feeling that the game just isn’t quite up to the standard of the best of the field. But what is interesting is that besides the lobby-hopping Quick Race and the ability to set up your own game, there’s also a third, pretty straight facsimile of Gran Turismo Sport’s online setup, whereby you must register for an event that takes place at a set time, then qualify for it to determine your starting position. Then, of course, there’s the online multiplayer, which was a ghost town at review stage but should give sim fans some close racing at last. This is which is ‘just one more go’ heaven. Online integration is kept separate from career, with the halfway house ‘Rivals’ mode offering hourly, daily and monthly challenges to complete.
#Project cars 3 screens drivers
This adds welcome gameplay variety for skilled drivers while also giving those who aren’t so great at racing games a way to proceed without having to win all the time. These criteria are now much more varied than the pure ‘win the race’ ethos of old, for instance asking you to hit a target top speed or master 30 corners in one race. The usual long-haul, grassroots championships complete with practice laps and qualifying are simply gone, replaced with breathless, quick-fire races, each with three criteria to check off in order to progress. The previous race day busywork and tinkering have been stripped away, replaced with the Forza Motorsport school of career mode, where you take place in themed events, all tiered from beginner races to exotic supercar series, with the option of buying and upgrading eligible cars along the way.
