DOCS 0.7 Rating, Multiplayer & eSports event notes

I dont think its in any way too hard, just seems many dont seem to figure out you need to run special events to unlock the next rating.

Simply making it very clear they need that for the next step would be enough. I do like the special events and they are a good asset to ACC. I do know that many mp only guys rarely run many of the SP features.

These are really the guys we need to have an SA rating, the bigger majority that likely rarely or never run MP will use special events so will unlock SA but they dont need SA ratings to race the AI.

That is unless the AI has had enough wrecking from these guys and starts restricting AI race sessions.

 

Tutorial screen and explaining in game to people how to get the ratings should be good.

For example tutorial screen > ratings > and there is tab for each but they are grayed out.. so you start from the first one. And by unlocking those you move to the next one. Etc.

 

That's not an issue for you, you have done what the system wants you to do and you want to improve, so no problem

 

Of course, I use Google translator!

@Minolin

Does the SA take the impact speed into account? I Like racing AI to get my skills up but sometimes the catch my of guard and in the break zone I give them a little love tap Or does the system say a hit is a hit.

P.S. AI 89% Aggression 60% at Monza. My Lap times are low 51's.

Kind regards

 

awesome

 

Thank you for the quick reply. I really like the rating system, it made me faster, safer and more patient with overtaking. Luckily the 29th is only days away now

 

Yeah...especially more patient while overtaking. When you're stuck behind someone you have the good feeling that you're constantly gaining trust points and SA...good extra motivation to not screw it up.

BTW, SA 50 doesn't seem to be enough for mostly clean racing. Nürburgring server last night was quite a mess.

 

We’ve been bumping our pub server to SA60 as it seems to then make ppl more appreciate the license and effort involved to keep it there...

 

I think 70 or maybe 80 will be a better option later, in Australia numbers are still quite low so at 60 its ok atm. Plus we generally have better drivers here.

If you consider how you drive and what rating you have then to find similar people to race with they would need a similar rating. I would need to cause lots of carnage to get to 50 so its no surprise that 50 is more like MR ABCD.

 

Wut? None of you even drive on the right side of the road

 

We sit on the right side of the car unlike you guys on the wrong side.

 

Can I just break in and say ‘thanks’ for the CC rating, if nothing else? I think this one function, after many years of simracing, has finally taught me not to overdrive my front end. I’m starting to begin gradually turning into the apex earlier, instead of putting too much lock on too late into the corner. In the process, my tires aren’t yelling at me quite so much anymore!

 

Well said. It's exactly the same here - the CC seems to be directly connected to my pace. If it's low, I'm slow and if it's high, I'm fast.

It has taught me to not steer too much while still braking...one of my worst racing habits. I now know that even if you feel you're still too quick, it's better to release the brake and start turning. You might miss the Apex but your turn will be way smoother and faster thanif you try to force the car in under heavy braking.

 

Sorry to pile-on, but I too am in the 'love-the-ratings-system' camp. It is amazing to me how my times have really improved. And, it translates to other games/sims as well.

I'm still several seconds behind the top-runners in multiplayer, so a lot of work to do. No matter though, ACC gives me a really great single player experience with the adjustable AI, and I find their behaviours really quite good. And as for multi-player, also loving that, even though I'm usually in the 2nd half of the field. But I'm really happy with that, because that seems to be where there is a great mix of challenge vs. opportunity. I can't just pass the other players too easily. On the other hand, it's also not impossible and I don't get bored just running behind the car in front for the entire race.

 

And adding to that a bunch of new tracks and cars to get to grips with.

I know CC and CN will be my very good friends for quite some time if I don’t want to see my SA going down a cliff.

I just can’t find my Porsche ..... yet

 

not only! CC is great to understand if you are making the tyres work. In a way it's a good tool to evaluate your setup!
