If they decide to patch it for next gen consoles it'd be great if they would up the AI car count too, if possible. With the supposed power of the new machines hopefully it is. Be a nice reason to upgrade.
 
Agreed a patch would be good, but at the moment they seem reluctant to share anything about the game, let alone future enhancements.

Its very odd way to go about a game launch.
 


The next thread down is the same old trailer - someone asked about gameplay footage and the PR person that @MarcoM posted on the previous page says the FAQ will hopefully be out this week.

Lots of people asking for footage, so with any luck they'll pay attention.
 
I'm expecting the game to be great, but the lack of gameplay or FAQs or anything to whet our appetites is really pretty poor from Kunos/505
 
There is no way it will look like that on my 7 year old PS4.
It wood be nice to see a PS4 trailer, and then I will make a decision to buy the game or not.

Are you going to still buying this game on the 23rd, or wait and see videos of the game on the PS4 first ?.
 
Here's a question and answer (by Aris) in the comment section of one of his videos: /watch?v=5sUKesWPo78 (put youtube.com in front of it).

Q: "As always a nice video! Good driving! What can you tell about differences between ps4 and pc acc?"
A: "As far as I know and have seen, mainly graphic detail and frame rate differences and lower opponent number of course. As far as I know, official information and FAQ will be available soon™."
 
I am torn on ACC.

From one side, I am so excited that is going to be released, and I really want to place the pre-order.

On the other hand, considering the lack of transparency on features of the console version, and also how badly optimized was the first Assetto Corsa on my Xbox One X, I am really afraid to place the pre-order.

I would like to be certain that ACC on Xbox One X could run smoothly at 60fps with a good resolution (1080) and a good number of opponents (20 would be ok).

Kunos and 505 are really bad in communication. 10 days away from the release and we still do not know s**t about how the console versions will look like (and normally this is NOT a good sign).
 
I am also a bit worried. AC on consoles was pretty good but it seems that Kunos is not as engaged with it as with the pc version. 505 games has full responsibility in deploying it.

The turbo gauge in the Alfa and the G29 wheel bug (when you go into settings, the synchronization is not 1:1 anymore), they all were very in your face issues and should have been fixed. But never got.
 
I hope this also means 20 AI cars...

I very much doubt it. Already asked on the official forum and reddit and was met with a simple 'Kunos does not do AI Online'

Launching this type of sim game on console without AI Online to help fill out the multiplayer grid is crazy, as there will never be enough players online to fill the grid to a decent level especially after some time. AC was good example of that on consoles. Every other console racing game manages AI Online.

That should have been the number 1 requirement on consoles along with stable frame rate.

I have quite some other number 1 requirements. For me AI in online play is somewhere at the bottom really.

All the things from the PC version will be in the console game. But as its a console game they should have tailored it for the base on consoles like I said and on Consoles the issues that have always plagued are lack of players online and frame rates

Largely depends on how the PS5 reveal goes. If the rumors are true and it’s expensive, then I’ll just splurge on a good PC instead and buy it on there.

I hope they give us the HUD radar, an actual AI difficulty slider this time around, and UDP functionality so we can use Crewchief. None were present in the console version of AC and I'm half expecting missing features this time around too. Hopefully I'm wrong.

Crew chief doesnt seem to be necessary as theirs one basically already in game.

I was thinking more about offline play only with AI.
 
I'm hoping they give splits to the car in front and behind. The lack of timing information in a AC, a serious racing game, is really quite poor.

There is a relative time display to the cars ahead and behind in the multi-function display, along with a page for the time between cars in race position order, lights and other car functions and then a pitstop window.
 
Short question. Do we get the latest GT4 version cars like R8 GT4 Evo and the latest AMG GT4 or do we get previous versions? Something known?
I think the GT4 DLC pack arrive around at the end of this year, and I don't think anyone knows as yet as to what we get.

There are 2 GT4 packs coming. The first is for the European GT4 season and is apparently all the 2019 European Championship GT4 cars. This is due "Summer 2020". Also there is a British GT pack coming, the only date I can find for this is "Winter 2021".. if thats a mistake and it means 2020 who knows. See https://www.assettocorsa.net/competizione/roadmap/

In terms of the cars, the latest information i can find is at the top of this page on their forum, which says its the cars from 2019 European GT4 season cars, but not offically confirmed but was information from a Kunos developer https://www.assettocorsa.net/forum/...izione-2020-generic-discussion.60715/page-221

It seems Kunos and 505 are utterly inept at communication regarding the game sadly.

Winter 2021 as in Nov - Dec seems an awful long way off. Hopefully they mean Jan - Feb but it's horribly ambiguous.

Agree on the poor comms but i think there is a console update coming on 16th, one week ahead of launch. I hope it will be worth the wait and not make me regret my preorder...
I'm guessing that despite the low initial price this will be a £60 game when complete after DLC but I'm hoping that this will eventually include more than the GT4 and British GT packs which are the only things mentioned yet (that I've seen anyway)
