Awesome preview Guod, really nice to see in your preview that multi-monitor support is in, hopefully it will work really well like iRacing's does, very excited about the beta and hoping it will come out today or tomorrow.
And I am this type of gamer: "I'll crank that baby up to the maximum settings and work the graphics back down to an acceptable level."
Most likely if I get the 3 monitor support working I will have to dial down the settings.
Thanks for the preview, look forward to racing with you guys online at Spa '67.

Great preview,...hits nicely on a lot of the areas that people were wondering about. Some really nice screens as well and an exclusive on the track marshals. While I'm sure a majority is waiting for a GPL-flashback, seems to be a decent mix of car types to give a good impression of the physics performance overall at this point. We all just have to remember one thing....it IS a Beta. It's going to have some teething problems, but ISI's always shown great support in the past. Looking forward to being the first to take a dip into the Monaco harbor....

I'm barely getting up to speed on rFactor and then they come out with rFactor 2? I guess I'll be back up to speed in...7 years? <sheesh>
Nice article, Doug! Looking forward to more screenshots and gameplay vids!

Looks great and good write up Doug! Let's see, I built my current gaming rig in 2005 so I could run rFactor and that's what it's been primarily used for since then...I guess it's time to build a new one for rF2!

Doug, did you try the pseudo-listen server deal? Run dedicated server on your PC than run the MP on top of that and connect to it?
I hosted my own rFactor server for small races while also racing on the same PC for a long time, and I still do for Race, F1, and Dirt. The ability to do that without connecting to someone else's server where they've picked the cars and tracks is of utmost importance to me.

The Jedi Master I have not, but I will and report back later this week. Glad you mentioned it!
