Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II

I have had the game for two days now and it has surpassed mu expectations overall. I didn't get the game until after the force feedback patch for steering wheels was released and I can say that the force feedback effects with my Thrustmaster TX wheel were almost perfect at default. I have made a few ...

Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II



Just gave NASCAR 25 another try since the Xbox patch dropped and it's 100% improved in the force feedback and steering feel. I have yet to tweak anything either.

Thanks for abating my fears about the force feedback. Did you have to turn the centering spring on to give you some feel in the ...

Re: iRacing Arcade

Okay, I downloaded the demo and gave it a try. It has that iRacing feel to it that makes the interface feel engaged. I is mostly arcade, but that's what you would expect given the title, but it does reward good braking and accelerating.

I don't know what made me think I was going to be able to use ...

Re: PGA Tour 2K25


I see Web's scores update in round so he must also be on a PS5?

He is...

I wondered why I saw some scores update during the rounds while others I have no clue until I finish. I get it now and it's kind of a bummer.

I would think this is fixable?

Played round 1 of the weekend tourney this ...

Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II


I had never even heard of this game until yesterday when some Youtube thumbnail said "NASCAR 25 launch trailer". I laughed but clicked it anyway.

Then saw it was iRacing and rushed to buy it.

I only raced once on it, but damn the controls were the best I've felt on a console (I don't have a ...

I paid for the early release of NASCAR 25 for Xbox Series X and played for about 90 minutes the first day (Friday morning) and then unfortunately have not had time to go back to it since then. I too have a Thrustmaster TX and there were definitely some issues with the steering and force feedback ...

Well Paul, you have made my wait for NASCAR 25 until October 21st that much harder to endure. I am a wheel enthusiast mostly because I suck so bad at racing games with a controller. I simply can't hold a line with a controller and I'm a rolling hazard in a multiplayer race. If iRacing has figured ...

First and foremost as usual, thanks very much for your dedication John, to the game and for setting up the weekly events. What I like in this version of the game is that while hitting fairways is not always easy, never mind putting, it does give you that “good feeling” when both can be achieved ...

Re: Racing Sim Thread, Part II

Has anyone picked up NASCAR 25 for their XBox Series X or PS5? I was interested in purchasing the standard edition on the 14th, but I'm hearing that the force feedback is pretty much borked on the Series X. I am also reading a lot of reports of stutter and lag on all versions, especially if you have ...

more and more people mad at the updates from 2K. They're saying the game was great before today and now everything is ruined.

Does anyone else have a problem pushing short putts in this game? I'm amazed at how hard it is to maintain the swing path, particularly on short to medium range putts in this game.

Digital only.


that's a very tempting price. I just don't know if I'll enjoy the game as I'm not a hardcore golfer. I sort of still like EA's game because I'm a graphics whore and I put a lot of time into that game. Also, don't know which ...

There are some rounds where I can play pretty good and one hole just messes me up. It's been fun though.

We're glad to have you back amongst us Bill. There's no minimum requirement for number of tournaments played. I'd love to see us get our numbers up to a dozen or more. That makes it feel a little more significant.

Is there a way to turn off controller vibration on the DSP events or make it user selectable? I play much better when I turn that off.
