[@BradleyG01]

ACC exposed me to GT3 racing, or GT racing in general, and now I find it far more enjoyable to watch than F1. The racing is so intense. I was at COTA a few weeks ago for GT WC America and on nearly half the laps of the 90 minute race there was a 5 car battle for the lead. Someone would get the lead, and then 1 lap later lose 4 positions because the racing was just that close. And then a few laps later that guy would be back in the lead. It was the greatest racing I've ever seen. It was like F1 Silverstone 2022, but instead of just being 1 or 2 laps of multi-driver battles, it was half the race.

[@NeoGeo822]

[@afterburn2600]

Exactly the same here. There's nothing better than the Ferrari or Porsche packs in the original AC with regards to fantastic driving feel. ACC has better sounds, graphics, and environmental conditions (not sure about physics, but I assume improvement there, too) but AC gives me more enjoyment. For and older school supercar fantasy game, Test Drive Unlimited 1 & 2 were hard to beat - I just wish they had the physics and graphics of AC. My computer sim days go wayyy back - all the way to the original NFS. The original NES had some sims, too, but I don't count those as I didn't have a wheel for that (don't think that was even an option).

I feel like the last update just a few days or weeks ago made the game way better. The new cars are sooo good now.

It gives you all of the tools and opportunity to get that perfect lap making great racing within reach of any reasonable driving. Iracing is insanely fun with the variety. I just love racing.

[@seatslider]

Love this! You crack me up. Great thoroughly quality content and some humour. So so good. Keep doing it 👌🏻

[@GSSimRacing]

The handling over kerbs has little to do with suspension and tyre model. Basically it was a case of the bumpstop having infinite compression, leading the car body (contact box) to hit the ground. This is why we had so many cars flying off at Eau Rouge due to bottoming out too much, while running extremely soft setups. I have to disagree with the rear sliding. It is still very punishing in general, but the TC appears slightly less intrusive - but it is a step in the right direction for sure!

[@tonygeddes9558]

I love lots of things about ACC, but special mention to the Sound. It’s epic!

ACC changed my life. When the “next gen” update hit the series X I finally felt like it was close to the pc experience. Such an outstanding sim. Sound, gfx, tracks, tire model, damage. It’s my favorite

[@Jev6]

It's not totally there, but in regard to a console game challenging it's PC counterpart, ACC does a great job of incorporating most of the PC content. It really feels like you're playing on a PC, especially if you've got a wheel. ACC also has keyboard support and a hidden broadcaster/spectator mode on console. It's a lot of fun watching a race and just changing cameras throughout the field during a live race is entertaining. Makes for good race streams.

[@kimchi2780]

I race "GT" level Corvette's and iRacing was always infuriating. ACC feels INCREDIBLE!!! Going into the curb is where it feels amazing. The spongy at first then hard feeling transitioning into the apex is about as real as it can get. Getting out of the corner is still a little rough in terms of realism such as the spring rebound while sliding or that snap grip you get when changing surfaces.

Imagine a world where maps like SRP and LAC are part of the default game

[@MrHaggyy]

A lot of people had problems with curbes, because their setup didn't had enough suspension travel at the right stiffness. But the game doesn't give you the right tools(data) to setup you car anyway. For aero and speed you need a velocity over distance curve that also indicats what gear you where in and what range each gear has. For springs you need rideheight and suspension travel over distance. Most professionell software will set markers when you lift a wheel or buttom out completely. For dampers there is a histogram from the manufacturer you want to match. For geometry you want to know your slipangle over distance. You can get this stuff with Motec, but i would love to see a Sim adding real meaning to the setup menu and despite trial and error would give the average player a helping hand. In identifing driver errors, maybe in fixed setup sessions and how to adapt a car to your liking in general.

Before ACC i was racing exclusively in Project Cars 2. ACC was undrivable at that time and AC lacked the player base that PC2 had during the peak of the pandemic. Livetrack 3.0 is still by far the most superior track weather simulation we have and the ability to form your own lobby to your lickings was what brought so many people together. Also the engine damage due to overheating is another thing i dearly miss from PC2. These are the 3 main things that ACC still lacks - proper track and weather simulation, engine damage and lobby/race customization on the spot. Most servers in ACC now are on sunny, clear day with average temps. There are extremely few ones which take place during night and even fewer during a rain or a thunderstorm. And certainly none with extreme heat wave of 45°C ambient and 60°C+ track temperature to make you adapt your setup AND driving style.

Always appreciate your showmanship with things like the intro. I really wish Kunos weren't going to be doing GT2s. They've hinted at this DLC pack being a goodbye to ACC, and I think if you're not gonna be adding anymore content to a game, then you want your last release to be something that maximizes the longevity of the game. GT2s are not that. It's gonna be very similar to Ferrari Challenge, which the community doesn't seem to like. What would increase the longevity is a major track pack release. Just give us all the modern SRO tracks that aren't here yet. We still don't have Hockenhiem, Magny Cours, Sanoma, Sebring, Road America, VIR, and maybe NOLA. I think instead of GT2s they should have released a 2nd American track pack (Sanoma, Sebring, Road America) and then maybe given us hockenhiem for free. I would take the Nordschliefe over all of that though. I knoww they've said they're never gonna do it since it isn't SRO, but I could think of no better way to say goodbye than giving the fans what they've been asking for since day 1.

This comment doesn't stand the test of time. Why would they stop ACC? Nordschlife 24 is being released April 2024. Looks pretty solid to me.

I would say the Ultimate GT driving game, it doesn't offer ANYTHING for those of us who aren't into GT3/4

I will have to check it out again. When it first launch it felt WAY OFF and I heard those that were defending it, and from my experience (been playing driving Sims for more than 30 years as well as Driving a real car at race speeds) I know when physics and FFB are off and they were no where near as good as Asetto Corsa, Reactor 2 or iRacing, and I made me Sad, but I am glad they put in the time to fix it

The GT2 pack and Nurburgring pack have both been released as of April 10th 2024. Once more into the breach for you.
