Talk about living the dream...:)

How is it they obtain the data on these cars? I haven't the faintest idea how they capture it all.

I would assume they get great cooperation from the manufacturers where possible, and, being located at Vallelunga track itself, have the ability to gather real time data, and, maybe more importantly, real time driving impressions on the track.
 
Fascinating how teams do the laser scan stuff.






Shame about the lighting. I wonder when hardware will be able to match real lighting. It still never gives that feeling you're actually near a forrest.

I would settle if they removed the spectators for more performance and other tweaks they could get in if they removed them.

For more performance? I use a super old gtx470 right now and AC works great at high settings, above 60-90fps, with an old q6600 it was challenging and I was forced to set everything at low and even then I had stuttering and cpu load warnings for a couple of seconds when the track finished loading up. But with the i7 6700 skylake I have no problems what so ever as the game is more cpu demanding than gpu. The gtx1070 that I bought went back to the store as I did not need it for this game. So if you really think about it they should update the environment surrounding the track to a modern standard. 2017 in about one month people :P

why have two of the same car, one with the pdk gearbox and one manual. it is still one model. I hate that ****, I mean why not just say that it is one car model even that it has three duzzin variations of it. It is still one car model and the variations(options) of the car model should be listed under the base model. AC have done it with its lotuses and GT has done it with its skylines/mazdas and what not. Hate that ****... So in other words GT4 has like 6 thousands models because you can drive a car with abs/tc/auto?

But lets hope the new porsche pack is fun, because even though I complain the game itself and the first porsche dlc pac was fun as hell.
 
To be fair, if Kunos has modelled it properly — and I'm inclined to believe they have — the PDK will feel slightly different to the manual. It'll be heavier, but enjoy quicker acceleration thanks to an extra gear in the box. Shifting should be faster.

That's what I presumed. That, and the fact that (depending on how you have the game setup) AC will automatically select the correct shifting method on your hardware based on what the car has in real life. So by having one of each car you can just jump between them and use your desired method of shifting without having to load up new wheel profiles. But the transmissions should behave slightly different and Kunos usually do include those kind of nuances (while ignoring other nuances). Also, can't rule out Porsche dictating that both be included.

The other fellas already pointed out the deal with the different vehicles, but let me also add...It's not like Kunos tries to gip us with the car count. They promised 7 cars per Porsche Pack. Tomorrow's Porsche Pack #2 will actually add 9 vehicles, the "extra" two being variants of the Boxster PDK/Manual and the 962c Long Tail/Short Tail. So, it doesn't bother me in the slightest. If they truly counted it as 2 entirely different vehicles then I'd be angry.

Interesting post by Lord Kunos at the official forums...

"Custom championships can't come soon enough.. hopefully the update for the third Porsche DLC (1.11) will include those."

Sounds pretty cool, doesen't it?
