Assetto Corsa Competizione - 2021-2022-2023-2024 Generic discussion

Happy New Year to you also .

 

Hello hello

 

I'm on the podium, the first ans maybe the last of the year

 

Happy new year everyone. I'm excited for the things to come.

 

More of the same with thanks for much great new content in a most difficult last year.

 

Per the topic, I would like to see some improvements:

• Add filtering to the Public Server search
• Reconsider SA penalty when you are "the victim". I know this is touchy, so my focus is on the incidents when there are intentional ramming from behind, or "pit maneuvers" to force a wreck, or even hits after a race is over. There should be a proportioned weight to penalize intentional hits so that the culprit is penalized more than the victim (or not penalize the victim at all - make sense?).
• Better disclosure of how CC, CN, SA are calculated. Maybe it is being guarded so people can game the system; if so, that's understandable. But, it would help to know why a clean race with fast laps, no warnings, no off-tracks, and consistent times doesn't improve CC or CN.
• Make some improvement to the scoring system. I know that is very vague, so I'll explain the purpose. Public servers are a cesspool of bad drivers - even drivers with high SA ratings. I expect that a Public Server with 90+ SA minimum would have a cleaner line of drivers. I know that is generally true, but I would really like to see a system that is able to group "like racers" together. I can't race with "the aliens", but I race clean and I am generally in the middle of the pack.

Overall - I am really immensely enjoying ACC and I greatly appreciate the effort that the developers have invested. I used to have iRacing subscription - I didn't renew because I like ACC experience So much better...except for public server racing. I am considering joining a league; I've heard it is MUCH better because the racers can be banned for intentional misbehaviors.

But - thank you!! I'm a fan and enjoy it very much! Stay safe this year (everyone!)

 

Happy New Year

Lets get it out of the way:

Nurburgring Nordschliefe - Never happening
Other race series (IMSA, ADAC GT, DTM, Indycar, F1) blah blah blah) and styles - Never happening
Your X favorite legacy GT car - Never happening
Massive changes to the server listing, rating, matchmaking etc - Never happening
All your brilliant ideas of how to save the game from god knows what - Never happening

Your discussion of how the game totally does not handle realistically because of X Y Z is a waste of time, there are actual race car drivers who race these actual cars in this actual series whom all agree this IS the most realistic depiction of these cars anywhere. So no we don't care what some dude in his mom's basement on an old Driving Force GT has to say about vehicle dynamics.

And if you're going to be a douchebag to the devs who spend their PERSONAL free time here, do us all a favor and go play Need For Speed or something.

Now on with the show!

 

Everything you listed was the show..

my list

don't be too serious..

 

Happy new year and hoping 2021 brings nothing but good health and happiness to all of you people.

Now where’s my British GT pack

 

Happy New Year to all.
I guess that the British GT would be out but they paused the development to work on Imola and the two cars. If the console version of imola is planned for January, i don‘t expect the british pack before February. I hope I‘m wrong

 

Ah ****, here we go again .... SA is fine as it is and there is no need to make it being easier to get, considering that if you are really safe driver getting 99 and staying there is not a problem whatsoever (and yes I am talking public lobbies) there is no reason to let other players that actually don’t deserve high SA be there, and avoiding accidents is a big part of being safe

 

SA should be even harder to gain, not easier. Only then it will mean something.

Ps: To all who have problem with SA on publick lobby --> go try Daily Races on Sim Grid - people there are a lot more careful and skilled.
I totally forgot about public MP and CP since someone gave me this link: https://beta.thesimgrid.com/series

 

@rnavasg - yes you are wrong
Imola could be released in between, it didn't delay the British Pack significantly. The console version is not being implemented by Kunos, so the British GT Pack is not dependent on it.

 

It is the first year that at the end of the year we do not have any spectacular announcement from Kunos.

This can not be good.

 

I guess it depends how you look at it. We know that there is still at least one more track pack coming for ACC and they can potentially do lots of more tracks if they stick with SRO and have the resources to do so. Some great Asia or North America tracks.
But at the same time of course every developer wants to be able to 'move on' from a project and target new things. I think Kunos is in a really good place right now and i am sure whatever they decide to do going forward, be that still supporting ACC 100% or slowly moving to another project, i am sure it will all be worth it

 

@TheBoss - Imagine Oulton Park Multiclass. That's all I need for a good 2021, plus Donington!
And you hear that Snetterton might look boring and might not be much fun for hotlapping, but racing there is supposed to be pretty good.

 

And then, there is the new australian connection:
SRO Motorsports Group takes up new challenge in Australian GT racing | SRO Motorsports Group (sro-motorsports.com)
GT World Challenge Powered by AWS set for 29-event global schedule as Australia reveals 2021 calendar | SRO Motorsports Group (sro-motorsports.com)

This is not a wishlist, but an option for ACC if there are any plans for the furure in case of businessplans, licences etc. could make it possible.

 

@sps_for_race -
A quick look into the crystal ball and what we have heard (mainly from Aris) about overseas circuits:
Corona will keep us busy longer than we expected. Free travel to scan tracks more likely in 2022.
Kunos doesn't have so many overseas acquaintances who can help with the necessary data.
On the other hand, it worked out for the ICGT tracks (before corona).
Hmm.....
Always hope for the best and be prepared for the worst:
I don't expect anything like this until 2022/2023.
