Assetto Corsa Competizione: First Console Gameplay Videos

[Corsa]

ACC is made for moden gaming PC something like i7 9700k / 16GB RAM / 2070 rtx

So how a 2013 PS4 can cope with that monstrous requirements ?

Even with those of us with PC specs like that, there’s engine.ini tweaks that improve performance further.

Don't need "fireworks and balloons", but having some footage of the game at its own preview event would be nice wouldn't it ?

I notice he hasn't made a video about the console version, but there is one for every PC patch.

We didn't see a single screenshot, video, interview or article. They just didn't bother. If they had sent an email to GPT or one of the hundreds of other websites out there they could have done a promo article quite easily, but they didn't. There is zero proof of the slightest bit of interest by Kunos or 505 in the console version.

Geez!! I am literally bored of reading the same comments over and over and over saying the same old nonsense “Kunos or 505 don’t care about console users” blah blah...

Do you really believe they thought let’s release on console and not give a damn if it turns out to be below the experience you’d get on PC?

A lot of people saying it’s lazy programming, but how many of you are actually capable of coding? It’s all well and good comparing other titles that do hit 60FPS when they don’t have the physics engine for example.

Bottom line, we get it you aren’t happy! Deal with it and get over it like a man, but please just stop going on and on repeating yourself. You are just making yourself look dumb tbh.

[evldave333]

I also dont know why they didnt add a performance option on the pro,maybe once its been released they might do,they updated motogp 19 with a 60fps update in july 2019
.Off topic but anyway,i remember stunt car racer with its wireframe graphics,it even appeared on the C64 befroe the amiga.Many happy hours,showing my age now.lol

Those mad rollercoaster tracks and jumps good times lol

 

[Vspectra]

Man I was sim racing on the racing-line.org web site was back in the early 2000s great days and we didn't even need online racing. I think we will get that 60fps option on the Pro with a 1080p or maybe even lower performance patch. If not I'm still happy they have put the game on console, it all but means a native ps5 version or a ps5 patch is coming also. So I'll just play it at 30 frames in the meantime. This generation consoles didn't have a lot of extra mojo on launch let alone 7 years later.

Anyway ACC doesn't NEED a high end machine.. This video here shows it running on a rx570 at 100 frames which isn't much different to the GPU in the PS4 PRO. So unless they really really struggled with the cpu I can't see why the PS4 PRO couldn't do 60 frames on this one at 1080p.

GPU is just one part of the equation, the Pro GPU is fine. But the CPU is also very important and will determine how long the game can maintain the target framerate, and this isn't even taking into account possible memory or bandwidth bottlenecks. A Ryzen 2600 in that test is vastly better than the poor laptop Jaguar cores in PS4Pro.

Also, that vid is testing Assetto Corsa 1, not Competizione.

So glad we get genuine pc sims on console, for me i fondly remember gtr1, gtlegends, gpl, nascar 2003 i think it was, crammond f1 etc.
Just hoping we will get the full spec on ps5 and continued kunos sims like ac2 etc..

 

[z71L28]

I think everyone who disappointed should wait for a proper review, On the same console and equipment as you own. As for FPS differences that should not be such a big factor on your buying decision. Imo this title looks amazing! to me and I know It's going to be great! Dude It's kunos simulazioni all said.

 

[GN_Bullit]

Perhaps a big game is paying off for the disastrous way that the PR folks at 505/Kunos have been doing this launch. A great deal of engineering work has been done on this title, the community cannot let amateurs in PR spot this. Let's wait for the game.

I 100% agree. Well said

It shows how far hardware has come... even 10-15 years ago it would be hard to have any title designed for the PC that was as intensive (for the period of course) as ACC is now then come to consoles. The PS4 and xbox may be ageing, but they're really decent pieces of kit.

What would be really nice to know now is, if we get acc now on ps4, will we pay full price again for a full ps5 version, well that be ok if we get all dlc though included if we already bought this on ps4 lets say.
I dont want to be a scrooge but since this version is pretty limited in graphic performance, it makes a difference, i wouldn't mind if i was in a no expense is too much situation but sadly not.

But I'd like to support kunos on console, plus the bonus of getting my hands on it earlier.

On Series X, it seems like it’s up to developer/publisher, I’m assuming it’s the same on PS5. So it would most likely be up to 505 games

 

[John G]

Well i have crumbled and cancelled my preorder.
I'm still very happy that they bought this game to PS4, i didn't think it would happen when they first announced the game, and will 95% sure still get it on download within the first two weeks to get the intercontinental pack - but i will just wait for some proper footage and feedback to confirm its not a complete disaster. I can forgive AC many of the things that people complain about so I'm guessing I'll be in a similar position with ACC.
However the released PS4 gameplay video was clearly played using X and square and the d-pad digital on/off controls and is competely useless.

 

[ykiki]

I preordered and I'm not canceling it. The game isn't expensive, so we'll see how it works.

Everyone is wondering how it'll run on their PS4 or Pro, or One X. Meanwhile, I've just got a One S. I've been enjoying PC2, so I figured I'd give ACC a try as well.

I have a PS4 and a One S. But since my T300RS wheel is for the PS4 im getting it on that platform.

I only got a One S for Forza.

I am curious though if the One S would run it better than the standard PS4??

 

[bmwisme]

Such a beautiful and fluid game on PC, if these video's are any indication of the released game, it's a shame they couldn't do more on the PS4 Pro and Xbox One X.

 

[ZokyCRO]

Had pleasure of booting this up on my PC recently (i5 7500 ,GTX 1060) and that was struggling on med-high settings so my hopes for console version have died there and then. ACC is stunning beautiful on ultra setting and 4k and drives amazing, but investment to get there is huge. Can't believe it's 2020 and we still don't have a proper sim on a console!!

Thanks GTP for the article and saving us money. I know a lot of people that have cancelled preorders now....

We do have a proper sim on console, AC.
And i feel pretty surely that we will get that full glory Acc on new gen.

 

[DivitLad]

Stefano got out at the right time

 

[smokeydan]

Don't bet on anything, Kunos haven't even looked at next gen (they said so yesterday). Until we hear different this will run exactly as it is on next gen - to think otherwise will just cause disappointment.


I don't buy the "but its old hardware" argument, plenty of other games run at higher FPS even on the base consoles. The Pro and 1X are not 7 years old. The reality is that Kunos/505 are not really interested in the console version, how else can you explain having a preview event for a game and then not actually show the game! If it wasn't for GTP staff we still even wouldn't have a screenshot, let alone footage.

"not really interested in the console version"? Do you have any idea how much effort it will have required to develop the game for PS4 and Xbox? If they weren't interested, they would have just continued to focus on the PC version.

In my opinion, the original AC on PS4 was admittedly flawed, graphics weren't on a par with, for example, GT Sport in some respects. BUT. The physics engine is next level compared to any other console game I've played and that, for me, is the unique selling point. Personally, that makes the whole experience so much more satisfying and immersive than GT Sport or Project Cars, even if the graphics aren't quite so polished. And I also remember how quickly the original game developed, great additional content rather than 30 variations of the NSX... I expect the new game will be the same, modest launch and solid development.

I'd prefer that rather than 3 or more years of hype and leaked video of Gran Turismo 7 before its eventually released half way through the life cycle of the PS5...

 

[Johnnypenso]

I'm late to the party for ACC but it is a wonderful, deep, rich, sim experience. Even my 3-year-old PC can run it on triple screens with roughly average settings. But 30 fps?

Im in the same boat. I've got a One S. I'm not focussed on graphics as much moreso on how enjoyable it will be with controller.

I've pre ordered but I'm going to switch my pre order to my local EB so I can take it back if it doesn't stack up.

To be honest my expectations aren't that high so maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised.

Provided Kunos give console users a graphics preset that favor FPS over Quality.

In PC, my 8320FX ran iRacing 2020 S3 build flawlessly , btw iRacing is targetting folks with lower end PC specs, ACC is tergetting medium to high end specs.

If ACC can do automated league system like iRacing....

After seeing some videos of the game, I will wait to read some reviews first before I buy this game from the PS store. I am not going to spend around $70 Australian dollars just to be disappointed about this game.

 

[FOG-Smokebeer]

Well I was going to get it but now maybe I will wait and see the reviews or for the ps5 patch its bound to get

 

[Daz555]

Well I was going to get it but now maybe I will wait and see the reviews or for the ps5 patch its bound to get

PS5 and Series X will surely get a whole new game - a direct port of the PC version at least.

If next gen just gets a "patch" that will be a huge disappointment.

 

[MarcoM]

They mentioned not having looked at next gen yet.

don’t set yourself up for disappointment. Enjoy What’s here now, or Don’t.

 

[BjoBosUndies]

Most of these blokes that are posting their contempt for 30 FPS, etc and getting refunds, will eat their words sooner or later on ACC.

That’s how forums work. Posters beat their chests and complain loudly, but eat their words silently.

It’s beyond me how anyone can make a buy vs not buy decision without having even seen enough footage or a review.

 

[FMW]

The problem with the Boosted Media video is the information is wrong in terms of: 30FPS is just fine and smooth on console. I understand the point he's attempting to make with the technical explanations. However, 60FPS racing games on a console are far superior to 30FPS racing games on a console. I'm simply talking from a visual point of view. There's no getting away from that simple fact. Having played all of the Codemasters F1 games since the PS3, the 60FPs that F12018-2020 has achieved is completely more fun and enjoyable. It's easier on your eyes and gives you less headaches. Would any of you guys play GT Sport at 30FPS?? As a console only guy now, I could never go back to 30FPS.

How many FPS has Assetto Corsa in the Xbox One S and in the Xbox One X?
