Absolutely loving this game!

I got Assetto Corsa the other night as I saw it on Steam and I've never seen or heard of the game before. But once I'd seen what was being boasted about it I instantly installed it. I have to say I'm only using an Xbox 360 controller (this game has now made me purchase a £500 steering wheel kit) but I am absolutely loving this game. It couldn't be any more perfect. I've probably sat for the last 3 or 4 hours just drifting around the different tracks messing around with settings. BEAUTIFUL!

Thanks to the devs and every one involved in making this game. Any support my gaming community can provide please let me know. Donations/Servers anything at all. I'd like to help support this game development in any way possible.

GREAT JOB! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!

 

Welcome to the club, here's your complimentary guide.

 

Have fun learning the wheel I had a blast learning the G27

 

Also don't run your FFB high. Aim for about 60 - 70% use of the total FFB in a normal turn in a streetcar with a wheel like you're gonna get.

For a super high end wheel, you can run pretty high actually to the point where you don't get any clipping or gear clunk or whatever unless you're just unreasonable with it.

 

lol, I like it, buys assetto corsa in steam sale, ends up spending €500. It's done it to me too, just about to order a fanatec clubsport shifter.

I have over 220 hours put into this game so far, I had a look through my other games in steam and the most I'd ever spent with any game on the list was 36 hours.

Check out skip barbers school of racing on youtube too, it helped me understand what I was doing wrong and definitely made me faster.

 

Loving it!

Welcome to the fold..best game purchase choice you will ever make.
The community here is very friendly and helpful so any problems just ask.

 

Well, no need for a new Thread about myself then.

I had a pirated copy of the game for some time. But boy oh boy, this game/sim is just astonishing. But the thing that really made me buy this game are the devs. Their dedication towards the community is just what every company needs, but rarely has. And when that company is just a group of hard working people and not a big multinational company, this makes it 10x times more worth. Just like the OP , i' m just using my trusted old Logitech rumblepad 2 , not exactly the best driving experience, but i' m hooked like hell.

Looking forward to play with you all in the servers. It's my first actual simulator, but im willing to try my best to keep up with all you good racers .

 

Heres a link to my drifting after a couple of go's http://uk1337.com/assetto-corsa-toney-drifting/

 

You did the first 'right' thing by buying the game....now do the second 'right' thing and buy at least a DFGT wheel ASAP

 

If you think AC is good with a controller, it's another level entirely with a wheel. spend as much as you can afford, don't just go for the cheap option, I'd say go for at least a G25/G27. Or start looking at fanatec, you can buy all the parts separately.

 

THIS lol I started out with 360 controller, then bought a G27. After getting the G27, my mind was blown lol.

 

My budget is literally zero, but yeah hopefully i' ll catch a summer job and do the "right" thing. It's hard to be competitive when throttle and brake are on the same stick , let alone stability with extreme cars like the exos. I'm so eager to get my blind blown like you guys, as i have never raced with a wheel before .

 

@Ody You could steal a wheel first, try it out, bring it back and buy it, if you like it.

 

£500 steering wheel kit? wow you must be rich or crazy. You only need £200 for the G27 or £100 if you get the DFGT.
