Assetto Corsa EVO - 9 FACTS & Features in 9 MINUTES!

[@shredd5705]

Also about the free roam.. in some interview Marco said that free roam roads are also LIDAR scanned, so real roads. I think he strongly hinted that there will be multiple countries to drive in, eventually, but Germany is among them. Also for people complaining about having to wait for mod support, it was the same thing in AC1. Mods weren't supported in AC1 until the Early Access ended. It makes perfect sense, when you're hunting bugs and looking for feedback, you don't want mods mixed into it

[@ThatLoudLad]

The ones who are complaining about no mod support at the beginning are probably the people who recently have started playing ac lmao

[@alexpajp123]

@shredd5705 yup people have no idea how hard it is to design code to work so well with mods like AC. AC handles mods so well compared to other games I've played.

[@yurilopes420]

yeah idk why people complain about the mods thing, i DID NOT EXPECT anything to come during early access, thats just shooting yourself in the foot

[@DeejayJeanP]

​@@ThatLoudLadDefinitely a younger genetation. Seems to be a trend for them to just complain 24/7 lol.

[@ricardofrancisco7684]

I can't even understand these people constantly asking for mods. I've been playing AC1 since 2018 and to me if kunos manages to make a great all around product I don't even see the need for that. Of course more content is great and all, but doesn't feel like a necessity to me. Also kunos seem to be hinting at working on this game for the next good couple of years, they sound really invested and happy about it.

[@real_Zuramaru]

modding is important and helps extend the life of a game, that said i feel some people are way too impatient about it and expect it in the EA. the priority should be to have a solid base game with official content before we start thinking about mods already

[@DjangoGroen]

I agree but I hope it’s bug free at the start and if not that they will fix it as fast as possible.

[@ricardofrancisco7684]

​@@szymonski1905 honestly I think a lot of simracers would be already happy with just a wheel support implementation, only for giving us the ability of chillingly driving around the roads of Vice City with a proper steering wheel. And I know, all of this it may sounds stupid, but I invite everyone to try Mafia The City of Lost Heaven on PC with a steering wheel (they're natively supported, at least it was with the G27) and see how it's way nicer to just drive calmly around Lost Heaven compared to a pad

AC Evo really looks like it's going to be the closest thing to a Gran Turismo on PC, and I'm fully on board for it. Maybe they could even introduce an option for a simcade handling to really open the gates for more people, but who knows. I'm really hyped for this game.

Looking forward to Abulzz's Targa Florio mod in the new Evo. No licensing required there. Just need someone to pair up with Alfa Romeo to release the Tipo 33 TT12 from '73. All this also depends on VR performance though so I'll not hold my breath but keep my fingers crossed.

[@Jeff-yx5wb]

I would love to see some third-party developers focus more on the F1 side of Assetto Corsa Evo (ACE). It's a perfect acronym! But AC has some great aftermarket F1 prototypes, and having them part of ACE would be a massive move!

[@arranchace1306]

Proberbly wont going to happen in any official manner, since you need to have the rights to use any official F1 brand from the FIA/FOM. But i agree, a F1 game on this level of simulation would be awesome.. I got some AC F1 car commercial bought mods, and their level of detail is just mindboggling, and that high level of detail should be default in a official F1 game, but alas.. Therefor its maybe better like this, and dispite not having "Official F1 cars" we got even better thanks to mods no other official game dared even to present.

I mean you got to have all the features in place before you can make tools to modify them, so it makes sense it will be coming after early accsess

[@929RR]

In assetto corsa with the use of custom shader patch you can add rain with realistic physics that even moves with the wind. The rain drops on the car here looked really basic and not affected by the wind which is a feature modders added to assetto years ago. It's crazy to me that all these companies can't accomplish something that modders can in a much shorter time frame.

lets be honest here, assetto corsa doesnt "have" drifting. AC1 IS sim drifting. there is no other digital drifting scene. there's no other drift sim. there's no other place with this much in depth to one discipline such as drifting with ac (trust me, ive looked around) i spent the last idk, like 3 years debating on whether or not i should get AC, since i dont have a wheel, trying out every drift game out there, and AC IS drifting for the sim they realized it and will add it for ACEvo which is just cherry on top of the cake, they really know what they're doing

[@ruwellsalatan7774]

Hmmmm I'm a bit afraid that SRP wont exist on AC Evo and its our favorite free roam maps Scenario 1: It will exist but a Japanese company will take over shutoko expressway map LiDAR scanned and will be for sale but developers of SRP wont be there and wont be the ones owning it, it will be that Japanese company Scenario 2: It wont exist on AC Evo, because the Japanese government wont allow it in the context of "It entices illegal racing and speeding on shutoko express way" I know its over the top but thinking how these people think welp..... I guess only way to get around these 2 scenarios is that hide racing things in the pretext of: 1. Use the word "driving simulator" it makes foreigners more familiar with the express way and Japanese road rules. 2. Economy exist so getting "caught" speeding gets you a fine and getting into an accident gets you a fine and damage repairs(kinda like need for speed and GTA V role play lol) I dont know but its just my speculation of the licensing stuff, like i wanna make this mod but need to ask those guys first(dont get me wrong it gives modders a network and a future job opportunity) but when SRP ask for a license to make the mod chances gets a bit slim when the business peeps and government peeps gets involved

[@Kpaxlol]

I see microtransaction HEAVEN. Shitty free mods with no flexibility. Paid mods with flexibility and variants / higher quality in feel and look. Paid skins for gloves / helmets / shoes / clothes. Chests like CS2 for those. Available on steam markets. Don't forget ultra rare legendaries from the chests - Steering wheels, rims, liveries, accessories. Imagine the possibilities if they do chests like cs2 😂

[@opmike343]

Does the lighting in EVO look weird to anyone else? The color grading already looks too much like ACC for my taste, but that aside, the brightness in a lot of scenes looks kind of wonky. That final shot of the Alpine at the end of the video perfectly sums up what I'm talking about. It looks really washed out.

[@shredd5705]

Matter of taste, but personally, overall from what I've seen, I think this is the best looking sim yet. Real life sometimes looks washed out, depending on conditions. Maybe there will be tweaks to those things, AC1 had plenty of post processing and other visual tweaks. This is just pre-alpha. But to me it already looks pretty great

[@yurilopes420]

yall are weird its like a pre alpha. it's like a vertical slice of the game. shows a bunch of stuff, but just a bit of most of it graphics are most likely not final. and there will for sure be adjustments you're suffering from nothing, relax its ok

[@exponentialbet6292]

For me as a PC sim racer, triple screen support should be a day one priority. I run three 27" monitors, and with either just the middle monitor available, or a horrible stretched effect like in WRC, it would not be worth it.

And no, it doesn't teach you the basics. A FWD tiny car that doesn't turn and blows up if you shift the wrong way doesn't teach you anything about GT3 or F1... NOTHING.

At least iRacing puts you in a Miata , and if you only want to race Open wheel, then you are not forced into anything that's not open wheel. Honestly. Go back to AC, and load up the initial car. Do you honestly enjoy driving that thing? My 14 year old Ranger or my EV Toyota is more fun than trying to do ANYTHING in that soap-box. Literally, all my cars I ever owned - including a 1971 Lada 1200 - were more responsive and fun to drive than that cr@pb0x ... Again, just my personal opinion. BTW, many argue that you have to drive the Miata in iRacing. Partially agree. It teaches you some things, but I find it working backwards. The more I drove open wheel and GT3, the better I got in the Miata.... It's more like open wheel teaches you those things you can benefit in the Miata. And I found I had to throw out EVERYTHING the Miata taught me when in a GT3 car (or even LMP 2 / 3)
