AC best sim on console yet, but there's still something to do.

I'm a sim racing driver since the arrive of Project Cars on console, a great game in my opinion, and i waited a lot for AC.
Now that i've spent lot of hours testing cars and tracks i can say that AC has the best fisics and ffb i've ever tryed, enough to let me prefer it to all other racig games.

Here my thoughts:

• Force Feedback " but i would really like some explanations about the settings. Now i'm running

ffb 40/45%
curb 00%
road 00%
slip 00%
understeer ON
xbox - Thrusty TX

These are good settings for me but i'm not sure if i lost some informations by putting to 0% curb, road and slip.

• Online " i've never experienced any lag and i really like it, i also love the fact that you're forced to choose different cars for any categories " but for a Sim Game PRIVATE LOBBIES ARE A MUST!

• Wheel buttons configurations, with Thrustmaster Tx i can't switch on lights and change/remove HUD informations. Sometimes player's names covered half of the screen, really annoying while racing

After all, Assetto Corsa is already a great simulator, the funniest to drive! Kunos Simulazioni and 505 Games did a great job and are absolutely on the right way but there's still something to do. Don't stop listening your community. I'm sure great things are coming!

Ah, sorry for my English I'm Italian

 

Curb is a simple rumble effect added to the FFB signal when going over curbs. Road and slip are force amplifiers, making suspension movement and tire slip more obvious in the overall FFB output. It is still based on the actual tire/suspension movement, but if you wish to keep your FFB as 'pure' as possible, keep them all at 0%.

 

Thank you for the clear explanation. Do you know if it's possible to save online races replay?

 

Sorry, no idea. On PC you can, but I don't know about the console version.

 

Keep calm and play...

Just to clarify, if you do set Kerb effect above 0, then your wheel will vibrate even if going over a kerb that is completely flat.

 

No you don't, because road and slip effect are both multipliers. Only the curb effect is an artificial add on.

 

I'm not starting nothing. Just saying the facts without insulting no one. And I'm wondering were the problem is when I correct ppl by saying that pCars is not a sim, so please, tell me-what am I saying wrong?!
When other says for example"pCars is a sim" you don't have problem with that statement but when I say that's not a sim-then "don't start a war here????

Really?

Ok back on topic. I think this is in the topic " but still something to do" without mentioning or comparing to any other games.
Iwancheck what would you like added to the game ?

 

Adding of course the possibility to create own lobbies but beside that they need to nerf the difficulty down a bit and to be he honest I'm copletely satisfied with the game.

Thinks like be able to customize the button layout controller/wheel, third app API, add tyre temperature icons on main screen etc will come I think soon or latter.

So far I didn't try the MP section and I can't tell about the existing pre-maked/defined lobbies and the performance of it bcoz I didn't test it but overall say

And lastly, I've to say why I don't complain so much and why am I chilling with the game and what's comming to us;
I never till now experienced such intensity during s race or Hotlap, I see the potential here and I know they will improve the game by far more as its now and I'm really exited tbh. And this will be the first sim game were ill put real money on the table for supporting this guys. (Call me naive if y'all want) but his game will evolve to something great!

I agree with you, with what you want added. I'm more of a multiplayer racer inside a racing community, so private lobbies and custom race grids are a priority. The only thing I disagree with is your happy with the game where I believe this game is not polished enough for general release, to many bugs, with 30 minutes of testing they stand out, none of these should be in the release copy, and some real basic bits missing like a leaderboard for time trial.
If it was sold as a development game from a new game house I wouldn't be moaning, but it wasn't it was sold as a fully working game.

 

What bugs?! I don't experience any one from first day till now!! And I'm not ****ting you!! On my console game runs flawlessly! I've read many frame rate issues, screen tearing, these, that, I have sympathy for y'all who got problems but I do not experience even a single one!!

I do love MP, played it in pCars a lot but this system what they present is garbage.
Your race ends in first corner, doesn't mater if you qualify first or last, you're done in the first corner, specially if you're on Monza
So when Munis add more features to AC in MP section I hope that they will be more determined to kick dirty drivers and let them not join so easily again.

i also have had no issues on the ps4,,yet. The only issues i'm having at the moment are the people who think a race is won at the first corner.
