ACC Build 4

And looking foward to some graphics improvements. Preferably get rid of the gost effect during TV camera replays. But it could be that those are not top priority at the moment.
A lit inquisitive about the spectator mode. I am imagining during live stream events the speaker saying "Now we will pass the transmission to the pit lane with Paul (Paul a guy with. VR gear that had join the server in spectator mode, waking to the pit wall to see the cars fly by).

 

I also cannot wait for the new 720s GT3 (Pictured above in bare carbon) and the new Aston



But these cars are for next summer update so we are a long way away from that yet!
Excited to try the Ferrari at Hungaroring

 

Not too hyped, as I'm not driving ACC, sadly. No reply on lock-to-horizon for VR users, niche as it is. I want the sim to succeed, I just don't find it joyful enough compared to ol' AC to put time into it.
The day I can drive ACC in VR in same matter as AC, I'm all in.

 

Car truly looks beautifully gorgeous, specially the back end. I will give you that. Still, I would have loved to see the Aston One instead.
________________________________

On a side note, does anyone know why these "gt3 prototype" cars are on Michellin tyres instead of on the dreaded Pirelli?, heck!, imagine the actual improvement on the driving if the actual competition continued to use Michellin instead.

I mean, what's the point of testing these cars on Michellins, for then switching to Pirellis once they begin to compete in the championship?, tyres will always be the decisive factor when it comes to the behaviour of a car. I don't get it.

 

Not all the gt3's champs in the world runs with Pirelli, or maybe the Blancpain's regulation doesn't allow to run "extra season tests" with officials Pirelli tires.

 

That Aston is the GTE from WEC (which uses Michelin’s), not GT3, don’t think Pirelli supply tires to WEC, but it is the sole supplier of Blancpain so all teams must use Pirelli.

 

As I believed, that must be why GTE cars handle so much better than GT3 according to some real life pilots.

I don't understand why making the lives of the drivers so hard by using which is possibly worst tyres available, at least in what it comes to slicks. Also, and on a side note not so many people hold the pirelli street performance tyres in such high esteem too you know. It's just all about who's selling me the cheapest tyres to be used in a championship, and then pure marketing.

 

Laser scanned Hungaroring is what interests me the most in the next update as it's my 'home' track after all. Been there a couple of times, but not with full-on race cars.

 

GTE and GT3 don't just distinguish in terms of tyres. The whole car is totaly different e.g. regarding downforce.

 

Ferrari.

 

Yes I believe Michelin works with the teams to create the best tyre for their car, whereas Blancpain is a one make tyre series for all cars, levels the playing field a bit, but it's up to the teams to make their car work with Pirelli.
The new Aston Martin Vantage GT3 can be upgraded to compete in GTE classes and vice versa.

 

Not sure if it'll be included in this build or not, but i'd like to see some graphical optimization and clarity improvements. The cars are great and the track will be fantastic, but the graphics and triple screen support are keeping me from playing much right now.

 

This week there was a small update of ACC, I guess it was 53Mo.
I didn't find any info on that.
Anyone knows what it was exactly ?

 

Probablly just steam downloading some stuff.

 

To 16th January when the Jaguar will finally arrive

 

It is crazy how similar the new Aston GT3 and GTE look, I can barely tell them apart in pics.
The old one, well thats a different story altogether - The GTE car actually has a diffuser to start with

 

488 GT3 + Hungaroring, I can't wait. I can even less wait for the Fanatec wheel this Christmas, throw the X360 gamepad away and finally get serious into this thing! Bring it!

 

Going from a gamepad to a Fanatec wheel you will be blown away

 

^Most definitely. Hope he succeeds in the long adaptation process of several months, where many times the idea of throwing the peripheral away and rolling back to the controller will cross his mind many many times.

The price of those wheels almost force you to suceed in it man, so there's no turning back for you at all when you finally get your hands on it : - D

Anyway, whether you're getting a fanatec you found cheaper for whatever reason or not, remember you have the t300 at a very good price tag now, even with the t3pa add-on.
