ACC isn't clicking for me

Ok, I will add this thread to the "this game is the real thing, you're too bad for it" list.

Instead the list "you are struggling? I've got some tips for you" looks almost empty.

This is what many people don't get.
the real life skills don't immediately and directly affect how good you are in a sim.
These real drivers are used to different throttle,brake & clutch pedals NOT only this but the wheel they have in IRL car is most probably is very different in shape.
These real drivers have G forces acting on them which is not possible in a sim.
In sim you have FFB giving vast majority of feedback.
These real drivers have car setup by PRO engineers and mechanics.

This is why it is mostly useless to get an opinion of real drivers (unless they are hardcore sim nerd).
Most important thing is data provided by real engineers and if game/sim follows it closely i don't care what real drivers say.
As for ACC it has received constant support in regards of REAL data PLUS some real drivers who knows what to look for in sim have given positive feedback.
If you remove the forces on real car they will probably feel same as they do in sim and THIS is what real drivers should be capable of....which is impossible.hence data shows the truth.

 

you didn't NOT ask for any tips instead your straight up doubting the authenticity of ACC.
ACC or any other sim will NEVER be 100% realistic but as far know it the best in market yet.
How many hours you got in ACC ?

 

I remember the time when I was at a party and people pushed me into challenging them on Guitar Hero.

Being quite a decent guitar player, everyone (except me tbh) expected me to pwn them all.

Boy, did I fail hard.

 

I didn't say that. For me the game is fantastic and gave me a lot of fun. I don't know how many hours I've in it, probably not so much even if I got the game since early access. I just said, as you did, that it will never be realistic and it have a steep learning curve wich make it so challenging . I'm just tired of fanboys.

Lol. Also my experience in simulator 100km/h feels like i'm walking but IRL it is completely different story at same speeds especially on motorcycle...it is quite thrilling and scary.

 

Understable mate. if you got game since EA you have probably long time in it and probably good at driving as well.
I don't want look like a fanboy,my bad.
there are somethings even i doubt and think could be unrealistic.
This is why i come on forums to get opinions.

 

Having seen that your question went unanswered, I was curious and googled it.
Jordan Taylor appears to have made the remarks quoted above while talking about rF2. He has also streamed himself playing iRacing.
I still haven't played rF2 and don't know how its "accuracy" compares to ACC, but the last time I played iRacing (several years now) I was really disappointed with the physics.
For sure though I agree with you that sims vary a LOT in the accuracy of their physics, and real drivers have certainly complimented ACC.

 

Would be good if you could access the server list too.....

 

Ha ha this happened to me, after 25 yrs of playing guitar and gigging for years...it was so awkward and without any kind of feedback sense in terms of playing. Everyone was like hey don't you play guitar for like 20 yrs...how come you are this s***?

 

Drums were a different story tho if you had any experience in the real thing. I made a mod drum pedal based on a real one and was able to play on expert almost every song

 

Well I had a good 1 hour long race recently after upgrading my CPU from an i5-4690 to an i5-9600. The car felt much more precise, especially in slower corners. I could hit apexes with much more confidence. I am assuming that the increased CPU power gave the game a little more fluidity that made the car easier to control more precisely.

One good race is too small a sample size to really tell, but so far I'm optimistic.

 

Agree with the rest but I don't think this really applies. A lot of pro drivers are successful as pro drivers in part because they can adapt to a car quickly and can be competitive with very limited mileage. They drive far less in real cars than aliens do in sims. And simracing peripherals are more realistic than they've ever been, down to exact wheel replicas for each car.
