At higer speed this limit goes down to 10 degrees of maximum steering, that's less than the optimal slip angle of the tires. In the current version, the steering angle is limited by speed, allthough already at 20 km/h it's limited to a maximum of 20 degrees steering on outside wheel.

I still don't like driving our game, only the online part gives some sort of satisfication, pure driving isn't an enjoyment for me. Then after that the handling got a bit better, to the current model. That's why it got changed, first to a very bad version, and I said it many times, that I would never buy a game that handles like this. Additionally the games suspension system/settings, are quite bad for most cars, so jumps would throw you around way too easilly, jumps are still bad, but at least most of the jumps can be controlled now. Also according to some it was too different from other games, like NFS and Burnout. But then you add the AI, and it became way too hard for the target group. Most people couldn't drive it though, allthough they learned to be decent, after just 10 laps or so. And it handled far better than FlatOut 1. It still wasn't realistic, there was way too much grip, and the cars had a very forgiving tire model. At one stage, I could drive lap after lap, and smile. The physics hasn't actually changed that much since I think February, when we had a really great handling IMO, at least for a few tuned cars. 'You are right that it's mostly the steering that prevents you from doing powerslides. Here is what a developer of the game has to say about handling: my only hope is that a mod becomes available that changes the handling back. You know it's sad when one of the developers admits the changes have taken the enjoyment out of driving the game. I'm guessing they may have been driving school dropouts. Seems that basically they dumbed it down because the 'target group' was having a hard time driving. Saw this elsewhere regarding FO2 vs FO1 handling. Just my 2c, I'm sure there are those who prefer different. Too bad, I like the racing, and the new tracks would be great in FO1. I also don't care for the AI changes - if you got behind in FO1 you had to work hard to get back in the pack FO2 seem to just wait for you to catch up.Įven though both are obviously arcade games and not sims, FO1 was more of a racer with stunts, while FO2 seems to be stunts in a race. I personally liked overall looser traction.įO2 is too easy imo I knew something was up when I came in 1st the first time I played without knowing the track or game handling - no way I could have done that with FO1. It was more challenging and winning races was more of a reward for driving skill and knowing the track. “This has been a process that has been going on for a very difficult negotiation really over a period of years,” the official said, adding that some offers during negotiations were “flat out rejected” by the Biden administration.Ī new set of sanctions against actors in Iran will also be issued Monday.Actually, having played a bit more last night, I prefer FO1 handling. The administration has received pushback for the deal, with Republicans expressing “deep concern” about potential threats to national security from the agreement. If Iran tries to divert the funds or use them for another use other than humanitarian purchases, “ we will take action to lock up the funds,” the official added. “These funds will be available only for transactions for humanitarian goods with vetted third party non-Iranian venders.” “These are Iranian funds, payments made by South Korea to Iran for purchases of oil years ago, including during the last administration,” an official said. The funds will be available for Iran on a limited use and only for humanitarian transactions such as food, medicine and agricultural products. The U.S is also moving $6 billion of Iranian funds frozen in South Korea to a Qatari bank as part of the deal. Two of the Iranians who do not have legal status in the U.S. Additionally, the mother of Namazi and the wife of Tahbaz, both of whom have not been able to leave Iran, were also set to be on the plane.įive Iranians who were convicted or charged with nonviolent crimes will be freed in the exchange, the official said. The citizens include Siamak Namazi, Morad Tahbaz, Emad Shargi and two unidentified Americans who have wished to remain private. They will then travel to Washington to reunite with families.

Five American citizens wrongfully imprisoned and two family members who have been banned from traveling from Iran boarded a Qatari plane en route for Doha early Monday, according to a senior administration official.
