Well after a couple of months of playing AC i can say the ONLY things it has over Pcars1 is :

- Car Audio is slightly better,also on the other AI cars around you.
- Physics are more refined,you can 'feel' more contact on the road and what the tyres are doing.
- Ferraris/Lambos are in it.
- Tracks feel more realistic thanks to the laser scans.

In my mind EVERYTHING else Pcars does better,and i think i may go back to it until Dirt 4 appears. AC just feels so bare-bones,a work in progress game. The career is very soul-less and i got bored very quickly,you have to grind some of the championships to get to some of the juicier ones,and frankly i cant be bothered.

Custom Championships wouldve been a big bonus - but i havnt heard its coming in the next console update??

The only things that actually matter to me in that list. You can play both you know. It's not a legal requirement to chose one or the other.

Iam playing both,but im more of a career championship man so im trying to grind the AC career to unlock the GT3 championships.

Is there any word why custom championships isnt coming to consoles yet?
 
Can't say I've spent much time with the Lamborghini's. They feel too rigid and heavy for my liking. Where the Ferrari road cars are so nice. The classic cars are extremely fun though.

So many nice cars in Assetto Corsa. The Maserati GT4 is extremely nice. Love the sound of that car.

No mention in the them in the patch announcement and it doesn't sound like the sort of thing you'd not announce so maybe next patch? We'll only know when they say.

The PS4 Pro is the equivalent of an overclocked PS4. Its why the console is thicker, has 3 heatpipes and a bigger heatsink. Obviously the hardware is a bit refined. 4.2TFLOP vs 1.84 GPU. 2.1Ghz Jaguar CPU vs 1.6.

huh? I was answering @TT92 question, so I'm a bit confused with your reaction.

Here's a question that is bugging me about the Pro patch. *IF* boost mode is merely over clocking the GPU and CPU then *WHY* can't the same be done for the base model PS4s? Admittedly they are lacking in "grunt" but surely some performance would be picked up. Or is it a case where they are at their peak limit right now?

PS4 Pro APU is basically same CPU and 2xGPU of the original PS4 + overclocked. APU is made on smaller process node 14 vs 28 nm, so that's why original PS4 can not be overclocked, even if overclocking was possible (which is not) and power supply was able to feed enough power to overclocked APU, the heat output will be far higher than original PS4 was designed to handle.

I agree with all of this other than the term "overclocked". I would replace that with "less underclocked" or something, they're both running well under the frequencies similar GPUs are clocked at straight out of the factory.

I really think they shouldn't have called it career mode as it's no career.

No word yet but the new track is supposedly coming end of feb so with any luck maybe then. I really want to sink some hours into certain cars some custom championships cant come soon enough.

How would you call it?
 
Career Mode doesn't bother me because I don't even look it that section. But, I understand that console players prefer a Career Mode, and Kunos included one, so it really would have been nice if it were a compelling Career Mode. However, maybe they could have thrown some lame titles around like, whatever is currently in Career Mode would be called "Challenges" and those other things, "Special Events" or whatever...come up with some label to people don't lose their minds that an animation doesn't appear after completing a Career Level that says, "Well done ALB! You're moving up to the Novice Series. Good luck!" :boggled: Pretty much anything would have been better than "Career Mode", although, I take that back. If Kunos did something along the lines of what I suggested, people would be screaming "You didn't even put some type of Career Mode into the game?!?! It's just these hundreds of challenges & special events?!?!"

I should report you for body shaming the Lamborghini cars. You better check your privilege... :mad: That's it. You've upset me so much. I need to go and find a safe space...and I pray they have coloring books there. :nervous:

I don't think your friends at stormfront will appreciate there being colour in your books.
 
Same here Scuderia Paul. My son who is still @home from school...checks if the PP3 already has been downloaded and then he will send some tweets to me to tease me...because my wife and I are are off for some romantic Valentine break. And that on the same day that PP3 comes out.

I expect @Donnced to be back with an exhaustive list of bugs, glitches & complaints...within 90 minutes. :sly: :lol: I'm just kidding. I hope v1.12 fixed some of those issues you guys were having -- and most importantly, I hope it didn't create any. :banghead: Hey...wait a minute. You guys just passed us. We're still on v1.11.4. :sly: :D

An older version but with custom championships? Way to rub the salt in the wounds haha
