This looks really good I hope they take their time and put a great game from the jump. Hopefully it will be on the consoles eventually
 
PC specs are on Steam

Oh, I know all of that. It's remarkable what's been achieved with the old AC engine. But this video didn't really demonstrate any tangible improvements over what we have with AC and CSP. One could even argue that rain effects didn't look as nice.
And I don't think people realise how limited the car and track choices might be in AC Evo, with only official content and 'approved mods' supported.
This video was Kunos's opportunity to show why AC Evo is a must-have for every AC fan out there, especially after the missteps with Competizione. But there was nothing really new on show.
Maybe there'll be deep dives over the coming months highlighting various advantages, but... first impressions last, and this video didn't really leave me wanting more, as I'm already playing what was showcased.
Yeah but those driver animations though 😜

In all seriousness it’s going to vastly depend on how the modding is implemented/allowed. It definitely looked like there was one scene in the trailer with traffic, which I’d think is a big positive for a lot of people.

The AC engine was pretty good (especially for 2013) so if they update that to use more modern hardware (and more than one CPU core at a time) they could have an even better foundation to build on. We’ll find out in ~3.5 months though!

First off thanks for all the modding you do for the community. It is so much of what makes this game so great.

But as a person that mainly plays online with others having so much of what now require each person to go through the process of installing mods be a part of the base game is worth a lot and is enough to justify me getting the game on day one. Sure it may not replace all the AC has become but to be honest if you give me 60 awesome cars and 50 tracks that is 3000 combos. That will keep me busy for many years. And nothing will stop me from firing up AC for those occasional hits of something off the wall.
 
That would be dope if we can indeed drive on public roads with cross traffic. If it’s a non-playable scene to showcase the car, oh well.
 
It does look intresting, i have a new pc tomorrow so will be ready when it launches, their is talk of free roam maps and traffic, but didint get much look at it in the trailer.
 
Fun fact, the voice that speaks in the trailer and the person who takes the gloves in the Porsche 911 scene inside a garage is currently the actual boss and co-founder of Kunos, Marco Massarutto, also that Porsche and the classic Alfa Romeo Guilia that is seen in an instant (where you see the steering wheel to make a transition with the steering wheel of a Mercedes in the game) belong to him.
 
Just noticed the cars have “real mirrors”!
Say no more, take my money.
We are in for a treat.
This video was Kunos's opportunity to show why AC Evo is a must-have for every AC fan out there,
That would have been great, but how realistic is it, for die hards fan of AC like ourselves, with all the add on and optimization, I truly believe that even the almighty Lord Kunos cannot bring to market something better, let alone comparable. AC is the Godzilla of the simulator, it will be a long while before that level is reached.
But for a lot of people, messing around with CSP, Pure and all the options is just too much, so, if AC Evo brings them some of the way to what we enjoy daily, to me, it is job done Kunos.
I can even see that it will even help get more people enjoying AC with the full dressing.

Why wouldn't you buy another AC on console?

AC and ACC are still two of my most played sims on PS5
I had the first AC on early access back in the day, amazing journey with that sim, just couldn’t get on either the console versions, they just felt cold and under done, ACC I couldn’t run on my pc and the console version just didn’t stick with me.

On pc I tried them, PC, AMS’s, RR, Iracing etc and here I am just playing GT7 on my PS5

Although the ps5 pro does open for further possibilities - glad you are still having so much fun with them
 
I am officially beeellllowwwnn awayy by the trailer!!

Hopefully, we'll get to play this on SX sometime next year too, assuming MS doesn't force Kunos to release a watered down version as to not threat the seemingly "superior" status of Forza :lol:

I'd personally be surprised if it sees a console launch in 2025, early access is likely to be a year, and with it hitting EA in Jan 25, that would make 2026 on console more likely.
 
Assetto Corsa Competizione is by far the most realistic racing game on console so I hope this new version comes to PS5. I'm not interested in playing the game on PC.
