Apex appears to be the working title, but could be final. APXGP is apparently the team name. Judging by what Brad said in the interview with Martin and all over the released photos so far, it should be Top Gun Maverick style pseudo-authentic racing film. A fictional team mixed into current real world teams.
F1 teams are helping with the production (I think Mercedes supplied the cars for filming), the FIA is assisting, and Lewis Hamilton is personally involved. So you know these teams and drivers wouldnāt get involved if the film production was going to go cheap.

cant imagine someone saying āthis isnt correct, I am outā, but could be wrong.
thinking about it now, it could be incorrect and not cheap at all, so ā¦ dunno

Iām sure that it will be a fun ride and most likely get two thumbs up from the Critical Drinker. However, as the resident curmudgeon I need to also comment that not even wunderkind Max could win in an Alphatauri

As it stands, Forza Motorsport will be the only eSports Racing Sim on PC without VR.

Iāve been smashing ACC since thehumble bumble bundle, tonight is the first time Iāve tried it in VR.
Yay, it looked amazing but oh after a few laps of Hungaroring, motion sickness kicked in. Iāve only been using VR for flying for ages and really struggled. Itās been a long time since VR has crippled me as badly.

I hear you. It bothered me initially. I could only take like 10 mins driving in VR. But one day I decided to see if I could do 20 mins, then the next session 30, and a few days later had gone an hour and didnāt have an issue with it afterward. Itās like your brain figures it out and you are forever changed. At least it was like that for me. Every now and then if the fps are low, Iāll have a momentary bout. But thatās pretty rare.

Finally! There was a lot to like about WRC 10, the last version that I purchased. But I didnāt invest much time in the game, since it lacked VR. Looking forward to sim driver reviews once it rolls out VR.

Can anyone recommend a simple content manager for AC that simply installs the mods without all the round about stuff?
Never mind - Iāll continue putting them in manually.
Press NDA Release Day for the new Forza Motorsport!
Iāve seen a few preview/overviews. Positive for my interests, for the most part.
Pretty interesting video/interview regarding the new Forza Motorsport:

not to sound like the other nay-sayers on YT lately,
But Turn10 contributes to these 1 hr long videos talking about new tech, new physics, new lighting models w/ every version.
I was in the 1 hr showcases for Forza 2 and Forza 4, and even did reviews for sites that either dont exist any more, or arenāt the same (no names).

They promise revolutionary but we only ever get evolutionary.
I wasnāt sure how to āreadā the opinions I was seeing, when I checked a few racing forums or YouTube that are a bit (or heavily, or solid) negative.
Me coming to Forza for the first time, Iām not sure how meaningful these ānewā things might (or not) be coming from the perspective of players who have bought multiple prior releases.
And I guess in a way it doesnāt really matter, since whatever they do with FM is what I will be getting. Me wanting to enjoy this general style of game again (after GT3 back 20 years ago), it was either GT7 or FM.
I really like Project Cars 2 but 3 totally dropped the ball by trying to compete with Forza and GT.
I havenāt touched Forza since Forza 3 on my old 360!
