Motion or non-motion cockpit?

Motion or non-motion cockpit?

It is a gimmick, a very expensive gimmick.

I don't want my brain to fill in the gaps, I know where to draw the line in the quest for simulated realism. Some people don't know where to draw that line. Some people are also idiots, like the guy in the video "this is a F1 car!" LOL what a moron, put him in a real F1 car, or even a low level open-wheeler and he won't be saying that.

30 minutes in a trainer car? That's cute. I spent 10+ years actually practicing, qualifying, and racing in real formula cars. Once you've done that, and then you step into a motion "simulator" it's a joke, just like all of the games/sims out there are jokes compared to the real thing. I'm not saying they aren't fun, I'm just saying motion simulators are a gimmick in my opinion.

I'm sharing my opinion because if I didn't this thread would only have positive responses and the original poster's view on these toys might be skewed because of that. I'm giving my negative experiences to show that not everyone likes these toys. I'm not the only person on Earth who thinks they are gimmick.


Oh, and elitist? You think that all you want. You call it elitist, I call it educated. Most people haven't tried even a basic motion rig, much less one of the rigs like in the video posted above. With that, most people don't understand that a basic $3-5k home built motion setup isn't going to make them feel like they are in a real race car. I'm simply informing them that there is still a FREAKING GIGANTIC GAP between a basic motion simulator and the real thing, a gap simply too large for your brain to fill in.

Even iRacing, the king of consumer level simulators, is a freaking joke compared to real racing. There are real professional drivers who play iRacing, but they don't use it as anything more than a track learning tool, just like all these other simulators are used for. I'm not saying motion simulators are a joke, I'm saying all consumer racing simulators are a joke. Adding the motion portion in just makes it more fun for some people, it doesn't make it in the least bit more realistic.

I'm done arguing about this now.....


OP if you decide you want to do this, I strongly suggest you find someone who has one first who will let you really sit down and play with it for a few hours at least. That first few minutes is always fun, but after using one for a few hours I found it to be more annoying and intrusive than it was immersive. Don't let me completely hating them or Mayaman being completely infatuated with them sway your decision, this is something you MUST try for yourself before you make the purchase.
