1.10 and PP2 Impressions

my (and my team) mental sanity > marketing


if you like more "marketing" like forums and games I am sure you'll find them pretty easily.

 

Where can I order those? I'll take the blue and red one

On Topic: The 718 Spyder RS is the best car so far, it's perfect for an after work cruise around lake louise with some jazz on and a big fat spliff.

 

So why are you acting all butthurt again?


@Lord Kunos Dang, you guys did an amazing job on the pack. The GT3 RS is by far my favorite car right now, it drives so nice. Never imagined it would be so freaking fast (2:37.1xx around spa!)

 

Now this thread finally got interesting.

 

Kunos, your AC is great I love it, thx to your whole team! To threaten someone (not me till now) with something fits not to you - sorry.

 

I don't think threatening is the right term here. If you constantly troll, insult or get aggressive you should expect some kind of action. Not just because someone disagrees with your opinion but to keep the forums clean and constructive. And ultimately that's the job 0f an Forum admin/moderator. I'm pretty sure you won't get banned if you write an constructive post even if you're criticising as long as it's on point.

Edit: And that doesn't solely refer to this forum.

 

Exactly, if anyone ever saw a debate show on television there is a moderator in the middle. It makes the questions and directs the subjects of discussion, gives everyone a fair chance of saying their arguments, and tries to keep it civilized without people getting too much exalted over the other.
Kunos did advise/warn for people to take such technical matters to the physics forum and not monopolize this thread with one technical aspect of tyre behavior.

 

The Boxster S is fun.

 

In my humble opinion it is impossible to say which PP is better. Both packs added awesome cars to AC. It feels like blasphemy to chose between a 935 and 962. Or a 911 RSR and a 718 RS.

I just tested most of the current gen 911s and 718s we got at Brands Hatch and it was real fun to explore the diffences of the cars. Street cars with softer suspensions and less grip which feel alive on track in contrast to high precision tools like the GT3 RS which put all their power to the ground. It is a good selection in my eyes and all the cars have their place. It's not just about rising the car count.

As some people already stated the 962 feels a lot easier to drive than expected, but that isn't a bad thing. More like the Mazda 787b (mod car) than the C9. I can't say that I'm able to push these cars their limits (they push my to my limits ...) but C9 keeps me busy all the time while the 962 just goes fast.

But the car that really got me and put instantly a smile on my face was the 718 RS. I love old school race cars and so I might be biased, but that little thing is a dream to throw around the track. Had a fun race against the AI in 718s amd GTAs. They are on different tire models at the moment, but the combinations seems to fit.

I will be occupied driving these cars for a while but I'm really exited for the last pack, too. Great work from Kunos!

 

The GT3RS is funnier

Thank you KUNOS! Absolutely fantastic job, again!

 

Well, @MBK72 is a great example of being critical and not being banned. I think being constructive is the secret (as you say).

 

Well, all I remember from him was blatant ranting. But he's on my ignore list for some time now...

 

I am not threatening anybody. I think being part of the AC community is a privilege, not a right, and, as such, it needs to be deserved. The price people pay for the game gives them the game but not the right to be part of this community, everybody is free to come, stay, state their opinions, no matter how negative, as long it's all done in a respectful and civilized way.

I like to think about this forum as a nice and posh Tennis Club.. walk in drunk, molest the ladies and you'll be shown the door.

 

The Cayenne isn't bad either. (I'm lying, it might be fun stoplight to stoplight on the way to the mall, but on a track it is terrible)

 

I rather get my bubble burst by Stefano with "not planned, we think it's not needed" than "right now we don't have any news to share regarding that. But we will keep you posted if anything will change, so watch this space". Even if I don't like the decision, I like the answer, it's honest and actually contains some info.

And "threatening"? Seriously? With bunch of haha, smilies and "i know you mean good" at the end it looks more like a tip "I know your critique is constructive, but sometimes you are pushing the boundaries".
"You will criticize AC one more time and you are gone" - that's closer to threatening.

Time to stop being so sensitive about silly stuff.

 

The GT3 RS is everything they said it would be. I can see why the press rave about it.

 

It doesn't have to be used as a cheat. Seeing as we all have a wide range of toy pedals it can be used to dial in better braking behavior on different equipment, or on cars like the Mazza GT4 that enjoy locking their brakes easy it can be used to make that a bit more manageable. We can adjust the strength of our force feedback to dial in our wheels, why not be able to adjust the pressure of our brakes to dial in our pedals?

Thx for reply, clears reaction, I'm with you.

110% agree with this.

Where else do you get to actually communicate with the actual company on this level.
