I agree with you. I blame the non sensical YT short where a giant hammer crushing cars is being narrated by an annoying Ai voice. Aside from the popularity it has gained as a "crash simulator", there's so many levels which not a lot of people explore. The potential is really there.

As someone who's playing BeamNG since 2013, nowadays it's really much more than a sandbox or crashing sim as most think it is, i mean hell even AC wasn't that intuitive to drive (Seemed too stiff in the reactions) with a mouse, learned drifting and honesty justq being a better driver.

Covet needs to cover up.

@@darthsnape 😧

P.S. Does the RBR+mod set simulate mechanical components to some degree like BeamNG does? You made a good point about mechanical damage. Running a car with too much boost or otherwise putting too much demand too fast on the engine, breaking half shafts, cracking a radiator, oil leaks, fuel leaks, botching gear shifts, etc aree all things I've never had to worry about to this degree in other sim racing games.

@@dakaodo Yes, RSF RBR does take mechanical components into consideration. The steering rack forces are accounted in for ffb. Even though you can't see the damage visually, there's a lot of ways you can end your race in RBR. You can damage the suspension components just as easily in there, it's just a tad bit, let's say less fragile, as those components are tuned for rally. But ultimately, yes, damage scale is insanely brutal. You can over rev the engine, damage the clutch, lose a tyre, get a puncture, have your actuators damaged, or even your pump.

Agreed!

I don't have a lot of hours in this game as I heavily invested in Dirt rally 2.0 prior to my introduction to RBR and this beautiful thing. And I am in the same boat, I do like those games too, but BeamNG's deformation and random mechanical failures adds an extra layer of immersion which the masses aren't ready for yet. But I really wish to see a properly evolved beamNG rally system. I'm excited to see what you and your friend come up with. It's going to be legendary!

Let’s hope beamNG would be out of beta by then.

A rally championship you say? I'd love some details

@@darthsnape Hey, on this acc now We host a rally every thursday and wednesday (same event) at 6pm uk. (2 days so more ppl can compete) We run about 4 stages, 2 mins each. 1st stage is SSS (city stage or race track) and last one is powerstage. We have 2 car classes, BRC1 and 2 1 is 380hp awd, 1280kg and 2 is 215hp awd 1350kg, being the rookie class. We are also releasing a rwd class after this rally. On saturdays we host sprint rallies in brc1 cars. 1 stage, 3 runs, 2 best runs count towards ur time. More info is in our server

Agreed

That’s exactly the reason why I find it so appealing. The amount of patience and determination required to master or even be remotely decent at it is incredible. It kind of forces you to grow and develop skills which would be otherwise seen as unattainable.

@@darthsnape nice that we agree on this

If not the master, then perhaps the boss before final boss? Maybe the Kaileena to Dahaka (RBR)?

​@@darthsnapeoh, Beamng is 100% the Right Hand Man from Henry Stickmin 😂

Thank you

Hello Sleepypants! Thank you :)

I agree!

Oh shit 😂 I didn't realise that until you pointed it out

Same here. Can't wait to see what I make next. 😄Welcome friend!

Oof, the mentality of some people is something i would rather keep away from a video this "happy"... Too many tryhards everywhere.

@@Ferrari255GTO It's perfectly fine to feel that way. Preferences are a real thing.

same Holden

I'll definitely check it out! I'll update this comment once I do.

Yo

I noticed that on the repository and thought you were collaborating with the devs 😂 guess it might be a good idea to ask for a job, they've hired modders before

@@SleepyPantsSimRacing yo, looks like beam rally is a small world. Did you ever get to try it out?

@southern_potato i did, made a little video about what I'm hoping for it.

Totally worth it. It is the ultimate simulator.

Haha, I thought it was about time. More stuff on the way!

Very true. Trying to make it in one piece and making it a fast run are two things which are incredibly hard to pull off. The thrill is simply unmatched.

+1 for this! I know some people complain that some BeamNG cars (vanilla) are too fragile. Speaking from a lifetime of moderate daily driving to local autocross and rallycross, I feel like between the sim/rally choices, BeamNG makes me fear for my car much more like IRL. When an IRL spinout on a wet but otherwise normal pavement road curve at 25 mph (45 kph?) can cause $3000 damage and visibly camber a wheel from sideswiping a curb (as one of several personal examples), cars aren't that durable at some angles, at bicycle/faster speeds. I played the heck out of DR and DR2.0 (it helped indirectly prepare me for auto/rallycross later), Assetto Corsa, etc. I've never tried the more arcadey eye candy driving games. These games are all understandably intended to sell players a fantasy of being able to drive a car somewhat unsafely at high speeds. I have accidentally or deliberately yeeted my cars through corners and cuts that pinballed me hard, yet was still able to blithely carry on with my race with barely any steering damage. Not so in BeamNG. :D I can swap paint with other cars and guardrails. Ding some body panels, scrape off a bumper. I can even take a calculated gamble on driving straight over some smaller street curbs, gutters, or offroad corner shortcuts. But just like IRL, the game always forces me to seriously consider the calculus of reckless driving if my goal is to actually continue driving in a race.

@@dakaodo Fascinating. Perhaps rally cars aren't as fragile as beamNG's unofficial cars tend to be. Cherrier FCV for example. Even though it has a gravel and tarmac variant for rally, both tend to be overly fragile at times. But I do get the point, it is just using some base components and "rally" parts to make a version of said car, as opposed to having a proper purpose built rally car. I'm sure BeamNG devs can make this game into a proper rally sim.

I haven’t yet. How long was your gaming session when you encountered this?

@@darthsnape I played for around 10-15 minutes at max 50Hz, and after that, it stopped working/broke. I touched the PHR Neo, and it was very hot. This is the second time I’ve encountered this issue-the first one already got replaced by the distributor.

@@shinjiizac That's interesting. It could be a bad batch? Or maybe you're using too many frequencies at once?

@@darthsnape I don’t think so, because the distributor replaced both units, and I still encountered the same issue. As for throttle, I’m only using TC and ABS for the brake pedal. I also checked with my distributor, and they said this is the first time they’ve received a report about this problem 🤣

@shinjiizac I’m hearing about this for the first time too lol.

Welcome aboard, and thanks for the kind words! I'm glad you found the video helpful!

Yo! :)

I have been playing a good mix of RBR and BeamNG for a few months now and to this day I’m unsure which I enjoy more. I don’t really mind RBR’s graphics and I can live with the slightly unoptimised performance of BeamNg. I too look forward to proper implementation of pacenotes and might start playing it more.

@@bearsjunky23hof88 hey bears!

I don't suck half as much in other sims as i do on Beamng, but i will always come back to it just because the game makes mistakes seem completely harmless despite the wreck you leave behind being a ball of flaming steel compacted against a rock at 700mph 😂

There kind of is pace notes. Even though they're not voiced they're still useful.

@turbo_marc yeah but you need a lot of concentration to drive already and if you use FPV to play with a wheel it's esentially useless, at least that was my experience on a 32" monitor. I bet they're MAD weird with VR

I agree. Despite its shortcomings, it is one hell of a sandbox.

And stil.... RBR BNG got no proper suspention, surface and tyre physics. And GFX is almost on a level with grandpa BRB. It does not help them to welcome customers over WF2 and many other "LOD-scared" guys.

@@darthsnape The fact that so many people are comparing a hyper modded rally simulator that is considered to be the best in his class with a general physics simulation that barely has any rally gameplay in it says a lot. The potential of BeamNg is through the roof. And @unotoli saying BeamNG suspension is worse than RBR is crazy, for the rest I agree with you

@@Clemmort I agree. Imagine if BeamNG devs decide to make it a serious rally game. Nothing would come close.

@@unotoli I don't agree with you saying that bng suspension is bad but it's really well done and you should try it yourself

@@unotoli what do you mean "no proper suspension"?? you can literally see the suspension working and you can tune every part of it also it looks 100x better than rbr in every way, saying that rbr is graphically better than beamng makes me think you are just trolling

Now that is an excellent perspective. You are absolutely right. No amount of upgrades will feel like going from g29 to a DD.

Really? Everything working fine? FFB?

@@darthsnape yes all working fine and automatically adjusts the settings when you start your game through the simagic software

@sony-ml3ok 👀That’s news! I gotta see what’s up with these pedals.

​@@darthsnapemy pedals have to be setup with their own software but pedals and wheel base all work together. the pedals I use are amazing all loadcell with the brake beaing 200Kg and totally toolless adjustment mounting holes about 4 inches on centre

Actually, there is. Saying Asetek is way better than Simagic is like saying one camera is better than the other simply because it has more megapixels. On paper, yes, Asetek boasts some impressive stuff. But real world is where the stuff matters. They're really close in terms of ffb. So much so that an average joe won't be able to tell them apart. You'd have to spend a lot of time with each base tweaking and understanding. And then maybe, maybe you'll be able to tell them apart.

Until and unless you really think that there is something unsatisfactory about R12, I don't think it will be. From an economical standpoint, it makes little sense. But it's simracing we are talking about. If you think that it makes sense, then by all means, it will be worth it. FFB wise alpha mini is ahead, and if someone is picking between two, I'll suggest them a mini. But if you are upgrading, I don't think it's worth it. But that's just my opinion.

@@darthsnape I'm now in such situation. bw r12 and mini , where mini is 100euro expensive... But man price diff in wheels for starter is so big ... I could take round wheel monza esx + formula mod for under 200EURO, while cheapest simmagic for bouth round and formula wheels would be 700euro... If you could recommend alternative to wheel selection on simagic base, would appreciate... But now I see moza is more tolerant to enter sim racing for much less price

@@andriyolyvko8211 Yeah, Moza's pricing is very welcoming. Simagic's pricing is comparatively higher. If possible. do check out GT Neo (simagic) as it is priced quite nicely. For round rim, I have to say I actually like the moza's CS rim solely because of the sheer number of inputs. Other best thing would be to get a custom rim and a QR.

I know 😂

Yeah, I thought it would be fun to see how far they’ve come. I’m glad you liked it.

Welcome aboard, my friend-your sub keeps this chaotic ship afloat. Grab some popcorn; it only gets weirder from here! 🍿😂

LOL! Love it. I can’t believe I didn’t stumble across you until recently. Seriously though, your work is fantastic 🙌 Informative, well presented, well edited, and funny as all hell. Keep it up bro, this is a refreshing take on the otherwise mundane sim racing UA-cam ‘norm’.

Absolutely. The modularity is a great addition!

I have compared r12 to Alpha mini as well. If you have not seen, you should check that out too. Now regarding the upgrade, I’d say if you are not satisfied with the overall ffb experience, then yeah, go for it. But you also have to factor in the level of seriousness towards this hobby, and also the fact that it is a rabbit hole. There’s always better gear. Simagic is often pitched against VRS and Simucube, and is generally considered somewhat close. General consensus regarding R12, and R9 is that it is good for the most part, but loses slightly to Simagic. Sure majority of people would say that I’m biased but not many people have had the chance to test both bases back and forth. In the end, if you think Simagic should suffice you, then by all means, go ahead.

For fun, EA WRC. For serious business, Beamng and RBR!

Thank you 🙏

First is Dirt rally 2.0, Second is EA WRC, Third is BeamNG, Last one is RSF-RBR

Hi, I'm glad you enjoyed the video! I haven't tried the collar, I don't think it will be compatible. And I have been eyeing the long plate but with an inverted set. Not sure how much of an upgrade it will be compared to non inverted p1000s.

Thank you very much! 💪🏼 Welcome aboard!

Thanks a ton!

These are unbelievably robust. I wonder if other pedal sets are equally/more reliable and robust.

290GP seems like good stuff!

@@darthsnape Great minds think alike

Thank you! Much appreciated.

Hey @tkdmp5698 Thanks a lot. Didn’t see you for a while, glad you’re here. And yeah, you’re right - Trust is paramount. Subscription model isn’t something to frown about *if* the product is that good. But it isn’t (most of the times, like you mentioned), so it kind of disappoints.
