Only a few things still missing

1. Pit stop in all sessions..
2. No more auto pit limit
3. Be able to engage 1st gear before green flag
4. If car flips and stops upside down, just unflip it outside the track (do not send it back to pits...).
5. Be able to assign apps to wheel buttons.

AC is doing geat, we're having many races with diferent mods in our league, now we'll have the first oficial full GT3 series. It's a blast driving this sim, thanks Kunos and congrats!

 

6. Pit strategy
7. Vote next track
8. Live Timings
9. Safety Car
10. Formation lap
11. Rolling start
12. Spectator / Replay in lobby
13. Support for tire compounds
14. Penalty drive through

 

Assignable D-pad on wheels

 

16. ban console players from server.

could be handy when the horde of 13 year olds armed with pads join us next year.

 

I was under the impression that online servers were already graced by 8-13 year olds?

 

its not really realistic when your car is on the roof, you flip it and keep driving, pretty sure it would DNF, so moving it to the pits is correct.

 

label from the pit. You know guy that show you the time on lap, position and how many laps are missing.
I do not like to have so many app on screen. I would love to get info as in real race. From the pit with label or with voice from my virtual mechanic.
But the most important:::::: gentlemen STAR YOUR ENGINE. Please give me that thing. I want button to stat the engine, I want that emotion moment. PLEASE I want a proper clutch.
I want the engine shuts down if I'm wrong with the clutch or if the number of rpm is too low the engine must hop like in reality.
Now it's horrible. The engine remains on even at 0 rpm and I can accelerate with the engine that seems to electric. NO NO NO

 

...thinking of same thing.

 

Might be coming with console release^^

 

lol, agre with all the above!
Actually, if your car flips, in reality, it should stay as it is, I mean, like in real life: race over!
It's like in golfing: if you don't like to play from the sand, DON'T THROW YOUR BALL INTHE SAND!

 

I've not had a car roll over yet and I have this odd desire to try it.

 

-cockpitcamera that behaves like with the RealHeadMotion-mod

-bigger/grids more cars at the same time for long tracks/endurance/multiclass

-Pitradio (telling either/and, laps, pos, worn tires, low fuel, damage, the flags and maybe approaching opponents), best making hud-elements obsolete my presenting all info per the cars displays and radio

-pitcrews and staff inside the pits and the garages opened, like in real races

-nearby spectators in 3d or at least no more cardboard-Folks

Point 1, 2 and 3 would really help to make the game more immersive and add atmosphere and make offlineplaying more interesting.
Cause the games will be released on consoles, I hope to see those, afterall on consoles you will probably have even more offline-Players and those things are missing in GT and Forza and are appreciated in PCars, besides they were established years ago in GTR2, as far as I remember.

Edit: I forgot ambientsounds. If you race and not hotlapp, I hope for sounds similiar like on a real racevent.

 

This would be awsome. Like in GPL. You had the info from the previous lap

Of course here it could show gaps from last sector. Never the gat at the finish line though. I would like to drive without any app on screen.

 

O please.. I forget!!! I want a semaphore with at the start of race. Not graphic on screen I want real 3d on the circuit.
Thanks

 

AH, and the ability to delete setup from inside the game...

 

assign all controls to the wheel so we don't have to use the mouse anymore just like pcars its so easy to use really relax to use

 

3D trees. Or some different visual techniques to current 2D trees. I'm saying this because in the weather presets where the sun is covered, the trees and bushes sometimes look too bright and vivid. Doesn't look right. Maybe because the shadows don't work so well in other than clear-mid clear sky. Trees look nice in those open sky weather, but once clouds appear on the sky, the trees look unnatural within the track scenery. Maybe would be possible to apply different visual techniques on trees/bushes when the sun doesn't directly lights them, so if that would be possible, it wouldn't need for now 3d trees.

 

among other stuff already mentioned, simple things still needed too such as:

- Completely revised penalty system - current one is still unusable
- Revised MP system.
- Skid marks/visual effects missing in MP and other effects like off track marks needed
- Completely revised damage system both mechanically and visually. Currently it's very, very sub standard.
- wheels that leave the ground in MP instead of the having a Stunt Car FX style applied -
- Career mode revamp
- Sounds still need vast improvement - still no reverb etc.
- Mod manager (Steam Workshop!!) - less needed for consoles obviously, but it's still needed for us PC players.

AC is a good game. It's my favourite game. But it needs these things fixing if it's to survive outside of the PC environment and more so, to enjoy a long life.

 

Wasn't the no wheels leaving the ground in online races fixed already? I haven't seen it. I know it used to be a bug with non-animated suspensions, but somehow I think it was fixed already for all cars.
Workshop can't wait!

About the mechanical damage, what's very very substandard? I think it has great suspensions, engine, aero, tires, transmission damage that influence well the car handling and is all felt on the ffb. Of course it may need tweaks and improvements, but is far from a sub-standard like you refer. About visual is a decision for them. But the mechanical damage compensates for what you don't see, for example hit the car hard enough and the engine blows (there's actually smoke coming from where the engine is located) or the power is reduced, as well as the aero.

About penalty system, is also a decision for them, and how they want to make it, thinking about public and league racing, both in pc and consoles.

 

I believe that's only for the DLC cars. Certainly the last time I raced, wheels left the cars just like SR:FX.

As for damage, I don't think it's realistic at all (yes I run with 100%). In open wheel cars, the wheels simply cannot come off. Sure you can bend the suspension, but it's not realistic as ultimately, if I hit one of those wheels hard enough, the wheels need to come off. Visual damage is as much a part of it than merely mechanical too. You should be able to see where damage is. All the other sims have managed a deformable model and AC, being cutting edge, should strive for no less IMO.
As for the engine part, why does my engine blow up when I smash into a wall in say, a 458 where the engine is located in the rear? I appreciate that there is likely to be rads etc at the front, but my engine should not suddenly explode. Moreso in cars such as Porsches where the rads are in the rear (which I know are mod cars, but if the damage model was there, I'd expect them to behave correctly). We still have the windscreen smashing if we get rear ended, or my front bumper, and thus aero, going if someone knocks the side of me!?

As for penalties, I appreciate it's their design choice, but then, consumers have their own idea's too. I suspect that the console crowd will be expecting something much more familiar to them and currently this is not it. just grab the F1 20xx penalty system if needed. I've switched mine off as the Penalty now is just as bad as the original one - if not worse. Run slightly wide, slow to 21 mph? So I'm slowing down ridiculously slow, and losing even more places for running wide into the gravel. It's basically a race over situation.

I wan't to reiterate. AC is by no means a bad game, but it's time for development to pick up and resolve the same issues which people have been banging on about for over a year now, as in it's current format, it will not sell well on consoles and any sales that are made, would be short lived (IMHO).
