It looks excellent, I have to say. I wonder if we can hire Crompo to commentate XGN races?

Wally would have had a field day banning drivers, Monza T1 was even worse than some public servers There was a lot of lag problems showing up with cars jumping around and some very weird leader board issues. And I am not even going to comment on the collision/damage modeling. Not sure if those were normal for i-racing, if it is then I'm quite happy never to have spend any money on it.

It was a bit of fun, but yeah, the iRacing netcode looked pretty average, with cars blinking in and out. I was watching it with my wife, and at the start of the Monza race, I said "watch the carnage at turn 1". Monza did not disappoint Logged “You can please some of the people all of the time, you can please all of the people some of the time, but you can’t please all of the people all of the time” Freezer RestrictedRacing Hero Member Posts: 1296 Karma: 33 Re: Various eSeries sim racing news « Reply #5 on: April 09, 2020, 11:53:52 PM » Quote from: Wally on April 09, 2020, 09:06:11 PMHere's the video.

Monza did not disappoint I actually thought it was a bit amateur or they weren't taking it seriously with the amount of hits that were happening in that race..! We do better than that Logged Print Pages: 1 « previous next » Xtreme Gaming Network / Simulation Racing Leagues / Racing general / Various eSeries sim racing news
