Assetto corsa coming to PS4 and Xbox one

[Orayani]

At engine and tires at 100% i can't hear the tires.
I have had to heavily adust my sounds.
Engine ~ 35%
Tires 100%
Opponents ~ 50%
Brakes 100 %
Music 10%

I have a bit of trouble understanding the sound scale in AC.

Try go to the sound settings and compare music @ 30% with 100% - to me there's barely no difference.

But when there's sound it's very nice

Not far off what l settled for.

You'll probably not hear my tyres yet I can hear and feel them but I was watching and trying to base it off all the onboard GT3 footage on Youtube.

Master 100%
Engine 100%
Wind 37%
Tyres 65%
Opponents 75%
Brakes 100% To be honest I cannot hear a thing with this when I turn everything else down to 0.
Music 35%
UI 100%

Can hear my cars nicely at the same time without all 15 cars drowning out mine. Lots of nice growls all round.

This was on PS4.

I really have to disagree with DC having the best engine sounds let alone by far, they sound lkke they're coming through a filter or something, kinda subdued sounds. Another thing I disagree with is the physics and weight of cars. I feel zero weight to the cars, I think its a great game but the lack of weight fails to call me back to the game. I only load it up every couple months for a visual treat, which is amazing. Played the new tracks last night. My biggest issue regarding weight of cars is during contact, its like 2 cardboard cars colliding. Edit: all of the other sounds in game are brilliant though such as the rain, wipers, thunder and driving on a wet road etc.

Through a filter? Not sure what you're talking about tbh. The sounds in the cockpit are subdued, because real cars have sound deadening literally for that purpose, but the sounds outside of the car are very realistic. Remember almost all of the cars in DC are road cars with muffled exhausts. We're not talking about straight pipe race cars here. As for the weight of the cars, I'm guessing you've not played it in hardcore mode. I agree on the collisions though, but that's a product of the game being made to be an arcade racer, you can't have realistic collisions in an arcade racer, because it'd frustrate casual players. The inertia is still better than GT6 though. Wasn't trying to say it's up there with AC or Pcars in that regard, just that for an arcade racer, it does have a natural feel to it.

Wonder when the season pass prize will drop

And I'm starting to regret my Season Pass purchase, where's the Red Pack and the Porsche Pack?

Sure I get that cars have sound deadening in the cockpit. It was actually the outside if the car i was thinking about, sounds outside the car are realistic but as I said, if I shut my eyes I can tell its driveclub by the sound and I shouldn't be able to do that if the sounds were great ( They're not bad by any means). I was seriously underwhelmed by them, I guess they lack any emotion, that's what im missing from them. They are not part of the experience to me, they're just there.

I showed a couple 8f my friends AC, DC and dirt rally, they both commented on the sounds of AC and DR saying they were really good, they didn't say anything about DC. As for the physics, yes I have played hardcore mode but admittedly not much as I stopped playing DC shortly after that was added. Will give it a try tomorrow.

And I'm starting to regret my Season Pass purchase, where's the Red Pack and the Porsche Pack?

Porsche pack is coming this month, Red pack when the Fezza is finished being ported, that's giving them a headache.

Not all cars make brake noise.

I know right? I mean, PC users are getting the second pack in less than 3 weeks time! Meanwhile, console users are missing content all over the place. After 2 months, still no Red Pack on the horizon.
I mean, we'll be lucky to get all this by spring of next year the way things are going..

By 'Fezza' I assume you mean the Ferrari 488 GT3?

 

[Scuderia Paul]

No, he means the Ferrari SF15-T. Kunos are having difficulty in porting over the hugely complex hybrid system controls to work on a controller.

Surely the best way is to use the d-pad, as Codemasters do, to navigate a mini menu system.

LMFAO. And because of one crappy car that I personally have no interest in, the whole thing is being delayed?? Just.....GOLD lol.

Not only porting to a controller (secondary input system after the wheels anyway).

But have to implement in the game the button mapping and should even need to implement the compatibility with an keyboard to be able to map everything from the Ferrari SF15-T Hybrid systems and DRS systems.

They might release it earlier if you notify them you have no interest in the SF15-T. They may release an exclusive R81 Pack.

Allowing the use of a keyboard would be more straightforward I suppose plus it would not necessarily impact on controls we currently have.

That's it guys, Ryan isn't interested in the SF15-T. Let's release the Red pack and cancel the car

*sim racer forums explode in disgrace because Kunos didn't include the SF15-T!

Ryan have a little respect for those that enjoy modern F1 cars, I personally dont like them at all but there are a lot of people that do and that doesnt mean they should just do a poor job at getting it into the game. How would you like it if they did that to your favourite car, lets say for example your favourite car is a Kia Forte(you need better taste) and they are like ehh no one will like it so lets just put rock hard suspension and some hypercar slicks I dont think you would be happy, your dream car, the umm Kia is ruined, you will go spiralling into depression and watch as the darkness consumes your soul until you have no choice to make a blood pact with the demon lord Ug'Thak.

Now you know why cars have to be made properly.

Don't know about spiralling into depression lol. If it's there it's there, if not that's life. Plenty more cars to choose from. I just can't understand that because of one car, they are delaying the whole pack for console users. Why not release the others then release this F1 car at a later date?

Nice thought Paul but just ain't going to happen

Can you imagine the outrage if they removed one car from a DLC pack and then sold it separately? A lot of console players are already pissed that they have to pay for the cars in the first place.

By the way, triple posting will likely get you a warning from the mods. Using the +Quote option or editing your original post is the preferred method.

 

[Orayani]

I'd rather have options than no options at all. More cars the merrier, same for tracks.

Hmm i had to readjust the sounds because the tire noise came back

But now it is very good

Update

Been testing for 3 hours straight the settings posted here and i'm getting closer to a good feeling with the car... I have some weird occurrence of the FFB getting harder or softer while going on for a bit; not sure if it has a relation to tire damage or such (yup i'm flattening a good few lol)...

Of if it is something in the cars i was driving that where getting some kind of "hydraulically assisted steering" or how it is called in english i'm clueless that would make the wheel soft, hard, soft and so... It's currently bothering me a bit as is the brakes that seems to have a super short course.

Might just be me needing to get used to it. So far i feel the FFB is still not perfect for me, but i've finally started enjoying the game better.

Some cars FFB and behaviour seems better or great ( the GT2 ferrari is a joy, ffb is top notch and sound too), while others feel underwhelming. So i guess the effort to find the right setting is not finished yet

It's kind of strange that you're getting different behavior between cars since there is only 1 FFB system. It's not setup on a car by car basis since the ffb is just using physics 'numbers', I believe it's suspension data, but don't quote me on that!

I have felt differences in the steering of different vehicles as well, slightly, as not every car in the world feels exactly the same, but I also think aerodynamic downforce is going to affect that too...maybe @brownninja97 would know whether the statement I just made is true or not as he is 100 floors above me, in the Tower of AC Physics.

Bad luck? Also there's a few cars on grid that i'm pretty sure are not gt3 when selecting it; a few GT2 and a weird kind of prototype that were lapping 3-4 seconds faster than the group?

The next time you experience this, could you please make a note of exactly which models are the ones you suspect not being GT3 class? That is something that Kunos could fix in 5 seconds in a future patch. Was one of the cars a "Glickenhaus SCG 003C"? Kunos has that car classified as GT3, in addition to a couple of other classes, I believe.

For setting up the ffb i used some of the resources posted here and i'm currently going at 22% power, 40 curbs and 30 road.

I followed a guide for curbs strenght that suggested to go on Magione and go on the saw curbs to set it and at 40 is perfect, you can count how many "curb's hills" you are passing through

At the moment my main issue is just with different FFB strenghts in various cars and with the brake pedal course. Beside that all is way way better even tought i always been running on stock setups.

Did you watch the video I posted in my last response to you? You don't have to sit through the entire thing, especially since it's an older video and a lot of the stuff Stefano talks about could be outdated/changed/replaced. The section I blocked off, however, is solely FFB discussion and I think it will go a long way in helping you understand FFB in Assetto Corsa. Even if you don't have the time right now, I recommend bookmarking that video for viewing when you do have a spare 10 minutes. 👍

In short my impressions are way more favorable now, still not confortable with those few things, but i'm sure i can get the last drop of help i need for you guys to be able to feel "at home" with the game and FFB.

PS: i ventured online and, OMG it's a dead zone! O_O Hope the private lobbies come soon, there was only 20 people Online yesterday, and that was shocking!

BTW there was a GTP guy too i took a stroll at Silverstone and had been demolished I guess for getting online i better fix my Wheel and tune in some proper setup

Is your wheel damaged?

LMFAO. And because of one crappy car that I personally have no interest in, the whole thing is being delayed?? Just.....GOLD lol.

Frankly, I'm surprised that Kunos did not consult you before making the decision to delay the entire pack. Seriously, I've heard it's very expensive to have Sony push additional content out to Playstation users. I can understand, in a way, they don't want some idiot developer releasing something disastrous acrosss the PSN. I don't know if you noticed, but PC users received an update to Assetto Corsa to version 1.9 on the same day that Porsche Pack 1 was released. The very next day Kunos had Steam push out a small update - version 1.9.1... Two days later, I think it was two, Steam pushed out yet another update - version 1.9.2... As you can see, doing this stuff on the PC is a fairly easy process. On consoles, it seems to be a nightmare. For smaller studios, I can understand why it might take quite a while to release something because they don't have the financial resources to do these things on a whim. They wanna make sure everything is A-OK. That last statement is a bit funny considering how many problems the original store bought version had.

EDIT: Oops. @azidahaka, I meant to include: I'm glad to hear that you're at least starting to enjoy Assetto Corsa more than you did on that first day. Hopefully, in time you'll come to enjoy AC as much as many of us do in this forum. I'm glad you didn't just give up on it. 👍

 

[BrandonW77]

Which cars let you hear it?

Some of the old Porsches have it added, I'm not sure I've ever heard it on any other cars? If so I don't think it's very many (I could be totally wrong on that and just never noticed the brake noise).

 

[Cote Dazur]

Or you might start thinking on coming to the dark side, life is much better on PC, getting DLC sooner is just one of the many perks on playing on PC. We all have to drop the training wheels eventually

 

[Johnnypenso]

Like Brandon said I've only noticed it on a couple of older cars. I haven't driven much for a while but you can hear it on a couple of the old Porsches. There was a mod with pretty loud brake squeal as well. I doubt there is any on the newer cars with carbon fibre brakes.

 

[ALB123]

I'm pretty sure you can hear brake squeal on the Veloce-GTS. That car is freakin' awesome! I love it. Plus, it has some of the best sounds in AC, in my opinion. The car was updated with v1.9 sound fixed - on Race Dept. I can't wait to try his Honda.

On the subject of brake noise. I wish it would go away after you've got them warmed. Luckily, it's very faint on my setup, but I can envision this bothering some people.

I'm waiting on the 1080Ti to jump ship. I'm personally getting so sick of how far it is behind. If it is true as someome suggested the console versions could be 8 months behind. Patch 1.03 vs 1.9 on PC...

The version you have on consoles is probably similar to the version we had about 8 months ago. But I don't think it will take them near that long to get it closer to the PC version because at some point they can start developing them side-by-side instead of having to reverse engineer for the older version. Right now they're having to dig back through old versions of AC to re-learn how stuff worked then, but eventually any new feature developed for the PC will be built with the console in mind so it can just be ported directly over right away.

But who wants to beat the new record set on nurburgring with a mini this morning on Assetto Corsa? its a 45 minuts lap...but on two wheels

If they released the Red pack without the Ferrari some people would go ape **** and make sure we all hear about it. I want the Red pack now but it is what it is.
