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

There's one in North Korea if you ask nicely..

 

Hmm the numbers for AC / ACC on that iracingstats website are lower than what I see on the steamdb.info website. For example, on Feb 10 when ACC had the Brit Pack update and reached its all-time peak of 6000+ players, (Assetto Corsa Competizione · AppID: 805550 · SteamDB), iracingstats says ACC had a peak of around 4500 players. And it says data are from Steam. Well. It's good to have an idea. Funny to see that AC has more or less the same players as iRacing, and nice to see that ACC with only GT3 / GT4 is not really too far behind.

 

Only lists PC, no console <--- maybe thats why numbers are different?

 

No, the steamdb.info only measures PC as well. Steam does not have consoles of course.

 

AC doesn't list correct peaks on that site either i don't think. So i don't know where that site is pulling that info, a bit weird too considering player number data is available straight from Steam.

 

To participate in every race of the SRO European GT racing series, what do the logistics for a racing team look like?

Putting aside & ignoring the variable of the substantial costs involved, how do racing cars and teams get moved around from race venue to race venue? Has Covid increased the need to keep teams and their drivers, in 'bubbles' with an eye to moving everyone around from venue to venue safely?

For a middle of the field, 2 car team, - what does it all look like? What are the considerations, hurdles and methods/services used?

How do the cars get moved from track to track?

Do teams have to manage tire transportion logistics? (Getting them to the site/track)

Spare parts? Tire logistics, are they ordered and delivered to each venue for the teams?

What do these various hurdles look like for those teams competing in the IGTC, - with races in Japan, Australia and elsewhere? No doubt, Covid has really complicated the picture over the past year. Yet, otherwise, - what's it take to move a full racing team and cars around? Be it only Europe, or Intercontinentally?

 

Data frequency is different, at a glance it appears iracingstats plots every 4 hours, steamdb every 10 minutes, so results will vary/peaks not captured on irs. That said I compared 00:00 11/2 on both and iracingstats was actually higher, 4963 vs 2002. I will assume both are wrong

 

If you really would be interested in this, you would have found answers on the SRO homepage, on team websites and in broadcasts, especially from endurance races.

 

Well certainly, yet in that case it'd become only information i'd gathered, only for myself. By contrast, putting the question here, - hopefully would create a general source for others as well. 'Add some flavor to the play of ACC, and related discussions.

 

But this is ACC, no logistic is needed to race at Bathurst and 5 min later at Spa.
There are enough real motorsport forums, where this is talked about a hundred times.
You also can follow behind the scene coverage.
And why is another real life thread needed, if there is already this:

Just tested, 90-100ms from Melbourne. Thanks again!

 

Fast. On a good day I'll be in the 60-80 ms range and I am a lot closer than you.

 

90ms is about the best you can hope for Melb-Sing. ROOZ did extensive testing with different providers in Singapore a while back and the best service was 90ms. Having the server in Singapore instead of Melbourne should attract drivers from all over APAC region so worth the extra few ms (it's also the one place in the world Euros, Aussies and 'Muricans can race together at somewhat reasonable pings). 20ms would be nice but netcode handles 90ms just fine. Big improvement over 200+ on the US CP server and most Aussies not being able to access at all. Thumbs up!

 

The new pipe laid between Melb--Perth--Singapore is probably helping a lot..

 

Well, i dont know why but my practice rating info is not showing up anymore. I can enable and disable it all the way i want, its just not showing ingame. Also, mmaybe related or not, im trying to get the 3rd star in Oulton. Have done 10+consecutive laps that all counted, but couldnt get the last star. Thats why i wanted to have the rating info, because i remembered having similar problems in Suzuka. Any ideas?

 

What exactly?

 

Alright, im stupid! Had it set to multiplayer only....thx a bunch!

 

I just noticed that these special IGTC liveries are now available in ACC - have they been added just recently with the 1.7.x patch(es)? Or did they already come with the Imola/2020 update?

Edit: Took a look through all of the cars and teams, there are also two new liveries from the latest race at Kyalami for the Bentley (Team M-Sport, #7 & #8).

 

I was wondering when those were added



Thanks for the sneaky present Kunos !
