Quoting: titi"It makes me really want to invest in a wheel...."
Me too, but which wheel? Can someone give a hint? Which one is good and works in linux ideally out of the box ?
I use a Logitech G25, however they're really hard to come by so next best bet it Logitech G27. May be more pricey, but its an absolutely fab wheel!

Quoting: scaineIs there a rewind option, like the Forza games? That was a nice compromise between realistic and not-frustrating. Of course, only non-rewind laps counted in a leaderboard, but if you just wanted to blast round having fun, rewind was essential.
No there isn't a rewind option, the game focuses a lot on realism, and has got rid of any gimmicks like that, which in my opinion I prefer! Really punishes you and gets you to actually learn the tracks, and it feels so satisfying once you actually go fast around the tracks and do some sweet drifts :)

Interesting. What times/dates do you do these podcasts? And what would one have to do to get involved?

For anyone unsure, I emailed them directly first, as I needed to know for upcoming videos I had planned.

Such a shame, I've played a ton of this on PS4 and LOVE IT. One of my favourite games of all time.
