    Custom FFB are created/fine tuned to specific goals (call it 'taste', 'flavor', etc.).
    My FullFFB uses physical quantities in units that won't change with the new 1.6. It would require Reiza to change the whole engine (like, for instance, changing N to pound-force - it makes no sense such change).
    However, every FFB can benefit from adjustments specific for each car and tyre (that produce different outputs from the physics engine). I guess only the defaults profiles have this hability (hidden to us, variables only Reiza knows/uses like car name, car class and such).

    I think that's the point @XTRMNTR2K wanted to make. Beta testers should refrain from introducing variability to the tests.
    It may make a difference, it may not. @Kuku thinks is best to use what we know best (baseline), and that is also right, but has the potential to limit the quality of feedback to Reiza.
    But been a beta tester is not a privilege, it's a burden, isn't it :)?

    Ok, so thanks for this hype train for other games here, today I purchased, tried and refunded LMU. I'm not saying it is a bad game but not something I really need, I'm just not that of a WEC fan. Maybe I'll pick it up in few years time with a discount if it's ever going to get out of EA.

    But what would be nice to have in AMS2 from there are few tracks, preferrably with others in Desert and Japanese Track Packs. :p

    You're welcome, but the idea behind the discussion is always to get to AMS2 what we also like in other sims. Not to hype the other sims.
    We are here because we like AMS2 ;).

    I'm gonna play devil's advocate here and say this: The more people try to give AMS2 a bad name, the more I enjoy playing it. Because I know there's so many ignorant people out there who miss out on this fun gem of a game simply because they listen to the "cool kids". :cool: Schadenfreude is the best kind of joy and all that. :p

    To add:
    "Lap after lap after lap, I realize now what's most important in my life: Racing. Show me something more thrilling than a perfect overtake; tell me you've never dreamed of the flawless apex and that adrenaline-fueled moment when an entire crowd holds its breath. Tell me that motorsport is not our one common language when the world stops for those intense moments to witness that one perfect lap.

    You could tell me I'm wrong; some may say it's just a race, but this is about legends and teams, loyalty and precision; it's our battle and our belief, our commitment and our passion; this is our drive. Now, feel the rumble of the engines, hear the roar of the fans...you are Senna, you are Schumacher, this is your moment."

    Original is from Fifa 2006.

    I've recently been testing a new tungsten F5 button. After several thousand presses I can safely say its indestructible. Unfortunately the keyboard disintegrated.

    About damn time.
    The new DTM '95 cars might me want reinstall this title again. Content wise Raceroom is a blast, it's just a shame skin/name modding is not possible.
