Alright, enough cars for the moment...

I mostly reach the rotation limit when there's understeer in tight corners, and i have to steer hard to counter. Not so much with oversteering, even though it happens too, occasionally, e.g. in open wheelers, where there is more need to correct oversteer, or power oversteer.

 

I feel the rate of features added to the sim has actually increased with each patch. They have to prioritize what to give us, as much as we would like everything . If you look back over the at least the last 3 patches, we got major features added each update.

I agree, I would like to see more Track DLC now, but I am sure they would too.

 

I don't recall claiming to speak for anyone else than myself.

 

Regarding soft locks, the way AMS does it would be ok. It changes the rotation in Thrustmaster Control panel by itself. Only annoying part is, that it doesn't return it to where it was once I quit AMS. But if AC did this too, it would remove the problem for me.

But how often you actually hit the soft locks, during racing? I use the rattly soft locks in current AC and rarely hit them. OPs suggestions aren't bad (while some things are just too much work VS. the resulting improvement, like engine stall sounds for 100+ cars), but some improvements have come with every DLC, don't think 19th September will be exception. Why always bring up "DLC vs. new features" topic like it's a choice thing, DLC is what makes the feature improvements possible right? New features for everyone, even those who choose not to buy DLC. While in theory, they should pay for the features too. Because they are freeriders

 

No soft lock via driver, please. Won't work for half of the wheels here, including all DDs.
How Codemater managed to do it in Dirt Rally via in game settings. All you need is adjustable strength and ramp up value like in MMos, so it is indeed soft.

 

Dear Jesus. All I ask for is for Filters on the online menu. One, simple, tiny request. Probably the simplest request that ever existed in christendom.
To allow me to filter for servers not in races.
Or filter out servers which are running practice only.
Or filter out servers which are running longer than a certain amount of race time/laps.

Filters. Simple filters. Please for the love of christ.........please put some basic easy filters in the online server list. Really, am i asking too much?
I know programming is insanely difficult, but Filters. Come on.

 

you would expect a favorite server option...

 

You increase your steering angle while experiencing understeer?

 

It's a very common mistake.

 

Yeah I know, but I thought he.... ah never mind.

 

As a workaround you can try CM which has a million filters (yes I know, the game should have them but that's why the devs made it moddable so that some holes can be done by them)

@WilliamRiker ,dont bother,they need only cars they get only cars,simple.
Of all the things you said in the first post soft lock is the most critical,4 pages now and this is the main subject nothing else...

Well spoken

 

I don't think it's fair to judge it like that. It would be a good feature, but it's not critical.
The extend of the discussion mainly refers to the initial confusion about the topic.

 

A short ramp up of forces is all that is needed, instead of the harsh on/off lock we have now would take it from useless to great. A couple of lines of code. It's experimental anyway, hidden in an ini file already, so why not experiment with it? I'm sure a ramp up over about 5 degrees of rotation would be ideal, and soft enough to eliminate most of the rattling, while still be stiff enough to feel like hitting a bushing.

 

I agree AC would benefit from the features listed in the first post, I feel that AC really needs more laserscanned tracks but I appreciate the costs involved.... but why does any of that require Kunos to stop making cars and earning revenue to keep developing the game? Do you want these cool new features coded by by 3D artists and sound engineers? I'm a 3D artist and I know little about coding.... it would be a disaster

Kunos have advertised for more staff including a programmer, they're probably working on fixing the above ASAP, growing the business without putting it at risk.... if they went bust then there would be no updates or content at all ever again.

If Kunos stop making cars, the rest of us who are happy to race with Stefano's massively improved AI will eventually abandon the game. If they'd stopped making cars a year ago we wouldn't have had the 3 Porsche packs, Ready to Race and the forthcoming Ferrari pack which are all fabulous and keep me (and probably others) playing AC.

And if the online servers don't have the content people want to race, moan at them! Maybe people should setup their own servers with different cars if they feel that's the problem? Why should Kunos cut their income stream, commit professional suicide and stop doing something they love because all the online servers seem to be setup with GT3s at Spa?

First principle of running a business: if you're doing something good and it's earning you money and paying your staff's wages, don't stop doing it and focus only on the stuff that isn't working. You have to both, and it's not easy

 

I don't mind more cars.

But yes, I would definitely want to see more tracks, and features. Sadly it's not the case.

 

@Fat Rich ,in a few days ferrari pack will be out,so we will have the gto in our hands to race!
62 season had 15 races,Daytona,Sebring,Gaeda,Palermo,Avus,Nurb,Le mans,Charade,Pergusa,Goodwood,Bridgehampton and Montlhery.
We can only race at 1 only one track Nurb and maybe 1 mod Bridgehampton.
So as far as cars i am a happy customer but something big is missing.
Where to race?Historic racing,you know from GPL,needs realism,atmosphear of that year,tracks of that era.

 

My remarks with bold red.

Lastly : it would be fun to compare the features of AC with the rest of sims. It would be really obvious that AC is the most complete package regarding features. It just works.

 

Guys, don't ask any more work on AC1, let the developers work on the next title!

 

That's actually how most games die: they move on to another edition of the game having never really maximized the first. What's more, you split the already limited player base in half: those with the money to spend freely to move on and those that think, "I've sunk so much into this one, no way I'm doing that again on another one".

That's why you see profits of new games dropping like rocks: People are sick to death of having to buy a new game that in effect turns out to be the same exact game.
