Funny there's no mention about general AI behavior. It was tweaked for PC one or two updates ago.



If you're on PS4, in depth information about updates can be read by selecting update history from the AC icon on your system. Update 1.03 has more details hidden there than the official patch notes do.
Yes but I can't check those until the patch is installed. I guess playing the game will give an indication of what they've done. I'm really hoping they've toned down the weight of the AI and the way they can hit you and send you flying but happily keep on driving themselves like it was nothing. And also to see them make mistakes and unforced errors, not that this is probably even in the PC version.
 
– Added new controls presets

Means that they don't even enabled personalised button mapping..... c'mon...
I've got a bad sensation that they don't even will added hud apps like tyres degradation & temperature..

Let's see tomorrow..

True. I think the PC version recently changed how AI cars are affected by collisions, and thereby made them much lighter when being bumped.
 
I've said it before, and i'll say it again............

That is already in consoles. Ive seen them loosing the rear or blocking breaks.

Yep, i wanted that too. I didnt think was probable that they add new presents for the SFT15 and the 919 instead of adding control mapping. It is too difficult. Seems they have found it easier than adding control mapping...

It's more the speed of correction that needs a tweak. They're back on track way too quickly. I'm hopeful for a noticeable difference in behaviour based on what some PC guys have said here.
 
I'd like some more in depth patch notes TBH. they're basically saying it's going from v1.0/whatever we have on consoles to 1.09 a la PC. There must've been a shedload of changes between those patches and I know I could go and find all those PC patch notes but they surely won't all apply to console.

I really want to know what work has been done to the AI other than fixing the starts, whatever that means.
I am going to be really disappointed if we dont have leaderboards or hotlap
Times logged, or custom camera and exposure fixed. Having said that some people mentioned about the brakes instantly turning red and off when brakes were applied, that was fixed but not in any of the notes.

PC users asked for oficial leadboards inclusion since 2013 in early access.. so they don't gonna be in a "versioned" game of Assetto Corsa..

At least on PC they have the RSR live timing leaderboards mod...

In console i think i will make a kind of leaderboard and time table a la "top gear":D

I think you're heading for disappointment TBH. Doubt any of that stuff is in. I'd love to see a whole new skybox as a simple improvement to the clouds and general lighting would be great. Was just looking at some Race Room footage and the skybox looks really nice.
 
There's one thing I'd take over any currently missing feature or option, even on consoles. Why not give players the option to switch traffic on/off for practice sessions? Let players configure number of cars, class, difficulty (pace), etc. If that's too much to ask, maybe a separate track day mode. Spread the cars across the track and remove race mechanics. Track day, done! :rolleyes:

What about the red pack?

December.
 
December.

Really? Because I've been waiting anxiously for that pack. Would be a nice little Christmas present, if a little late for us console peasants (damn you PC master race!). Can you show me where they said it'll come in December please?

I think they said somewhere it'll come between the first 2 Porsche packs so if they mean to release the 2nd one this year then the Red Pack must come first.

Although TBH I personally don't expect to see it this year.

Thanks mate. I'd still like to see a source if anyone can find one easily, just so I can see exactly what was said.

I could really do with the track though, I know we get Silverstone Classic in PP1 but that doesn't excite me too much. I've not had the Red Bull Ring in a game for a long time now. In fact I was skipping through the tracks the other day and I was thinking, damn, there's not a lot here really. Gonna have to stick pCARS on sometime to get my Oulton/Bathurst/Road America/Watkins fix lol

At this rate, that could mean well into 2017 for Xbox players. Unbelievable.

So they found out the day before the intended release date that the update got rejected by Microsoft? How recently was it submitted then?

I suppose there's a possible silver lining: maybe Microsoft has more stringent regulations for patch updates.
 
Looking forward to reading your reactions tomorrow. ps. I had the TT challenge open with the 917 at classic Silverstone since last month, thinking you guys would only have a week delay and would be able to join.

Any of you interested in participating still? I could extend it until the end of December if there's console users willing to give it a go as of tomorrow. Let me know, the link is in my sig.
 
@mister dog Are points awarded for the amount of smoke created? I will be creating significant clouds of the stuff in the crazy 917/30. Unintentionally I must admit!

If you extend it I will certainly give it a shot. Someone has to prop up the table a I guess.
:(

Funny you say that because I was watching RRE too the other night and thought I wish AC had that sky box.
 
From twitter. It is on the internet, so it is official. :lol:

Thanks for that mate. Looks like a very vague statement, and him not wanting to commit to it at all. That's why I wanted to see the actual source, because he's often making half statements, and being just vague enough about it for it to hype people up without being a solid promise of anything lol. I wouldn't invest much interest in that statement personally.

I might give it an honorable mention if I can see proof :D
Ok I'll extend the challenge for another month, hope to see all you consoleurs there trying to not kill yourselves virtually.
 
Men...i gonna kill someone... I've paid on day one the season pass and the Porsche Pack one isn't included....

Assetto on consoles begins to be a real bad joke

Calm down mate, it is included. I had a look, and initially thought the same thing, but I remembered reading somewhere that the Porsche packs were included in the season pass, so I clicked on the DLC in the PS store and read in the description that Season Pass holders were not to purchase it from the store, as it would be automatically available to them in game after the patch. The exact quote from the DLC description is "Do not purchase if you have already purchased the Assetto Corsa Season Pass - this DLC will be available at no additonal cost for Season Pass owners."

Edit: They've set it up differently to most other games. In Driveclub, for example, if you had the season pass, every DLC pack would simply say "free" for the price when they became available, but you still had to puchase and install the packs. In AC, it seems the update brings the DLC contents to the game, but they're locked out if you haven't puchased the pack. If you have purchased the season pass, the new content will always be available without having to do anything, after each DLC patch.

Eh? I thought all Porsche packs are included? Is there an error on PSN? 505 will need notifying if so.

EDIT: Explained above.

Well... they chanced it in one month... because even with the season pass buyed, the day that the Japanese pack was launched once i opened session in the store, the price changed to free.. and did have to download it to activate the cars in the game...

Yes,it's supposed to be in the season pass content... they have the day to fix this..

Man...Assetto on consoles is really beginning to be a bad joke.

Reported on oficial forums already.
