Is FF essential for GPL?

Just wondering if I should get a FF-Racing Wheel for GPL or not... Lutz -- Home: http://www.geocities.com/rainforest/8059/

IMHO FF for GPL is a must as you get a much better feel for the car. but it will be difficult to drive at first, so don't give up! Lio

>Just wondering if I should get a FF-Racing Wheel for GPL or not... Yes. It has the best FF implementation of any racing game ever, and it significantly adds to the feeling of immersion. It's so well done it actually makes the cars easier to drive. Joe McGinn _________________________ GA-Sports Writer http://www.ga-sports.com/

Well, best implementation SECOND to Rally Championship, of course. Best regards, The Phoenix

Your opinion is unique and the opposite of the majority on this newsgroup. When said on purpose to shock, it's called a troll post. -- -- Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you...

>Well, best implementation SECOND to Rally Championship, of course. Nop, not at all. I like Rally C (see my review at GA-Sports) but the FF is no where near the level of GPL. GPL has the best tire-grip feedback effects and the ONLY car-weight-shifting effects. The only other implementation to come close is Viper racing, though even they have a simplistic weight-shifting effect (i.e., wheels going lose as you rise over a hill). In GPL you can actually feel the wieght of the car in acceleration and braking. Joe McGinn _________________________ GA-Sports Writer http://www.ga-sports.com/

Well my 2 cents. If you can afford a good wheel then yes.. Now if you have about $1200 cdn to burn, buy the Hyperstimutator driving ***pit with wheel and pedal set. It is not cheep, and is not force feedback, but is the most realistic racing experience you can get. (I road race an 1986 fiero gt, supercharged 3800(from 98 grand prix gtp) with 5 spd) my logitech wingman formula force now gathers dust. GPL is the best for this. (again my opinion) Hope to here from you Terence Dunn > Just wondering if I should get a FF-Racing Wheel for GPL or not... > Lutz > -- > Home: [link lost in import]

Its good but not essential ! I have reverted back to my trusty T2 and can still lap as quick as I could with the FF wheel. If you are looking into getting a new wheel then...Yes get a FF one...If you still have a wheel that is working well...Wait untill it breaks :)) P.S. Don`t get a Thrustmaster force Gt...I have nothing but trouble with the actual quality of build ! When I turn the wheel sometimes the main column misses the Pot with the gear on..and My wheel in sim stays put !! Not what you need in GPL !!

BRM champions at the Nurburgring with Esso !

Actually I agree that RC2000 has very good FF. I'm not going to argue about best and second best etc. Andrew.
