PACER now available at the PStore

[Xavier]

By the way, the Halloween extras will only be available till Thursday NOV 5th, which is the next PStore update day.....you get to keep them forever by the way, they won't disappear.

How do you get these extras? I see the Halloween logo but don't see anything else that looks special.

They open up when you beat the first Campaign.
Then appear in craft mods.

Also if you play the game in NIGHT mode Pumpkin lantern will appear around the track.

Ivé just been watching PACER on TWICTH, its the highest watch game ATM, had over 22K people watching it.

EDIT: something is wrong with the WOzones editing, it keeps bringing up stuff that I tried to delete and replace

See what gets posted this time.

I wish this game all the best. Like you Blackwiggle, I've been on this journey from the beginning!! 🤞

Hey if you see any reviews around post a link, hard to keep track of what gets posted given how much content is out there on the internet.

I started a thread at the STEAM PACER discussion forum titled PACER REVIEWS asking the same.

Well that didn't take long for a reply at STEAM, seems there have been quite a few reviews of PACER posted, the vast majority very favorable

I can't be sure, but I think Kieran from Got Game is the same person that have been giving R8 a bit of stick on DISCORD about how the game was released with the problems it has, fair enough I suppose, but it's the only really negative review out of all of them, all the rest give it 8/10 or higher

That's good then!

Oh btw, I decided to do the ID change from pirtek3 to Virtekh. Everything seems to be ok! 🤞

I've put a few hours into the campaign mode on PS4 and I have to say I'm really quite impressed. Some of the menus and mechanics could be a bit clearer, but the handling and other important bits all feel pretty much spot on.

I am having quite a bit of trouble with the volume levels though. On cockpit view there's a continuous bass tone from the LFE/sub channel that drowns out the music. The music conversely seems very lacking at the low end and at times is almost completely inaudible. I've pushed the effects volume right down in the game settings and it's improved it quite a bit, but for a game where such a lot of effort has gone into the soundtrack it's a shame that in game it loses most of its impact.

Anyone else having the same issue?

I'm feeling the same way about the music. The default balance is just a bit off, like the music is pushed into the background. I haven't played with the volume sliders, but if anyone knows of a good setting where the music has the impact it's supposed to have, please post it!
