Assetto Corsa Competizione | British GT Snetterton Previews

[Paul Jeffrey]

The second track from the upcoming British GT Pack DLC for Assetto Corsa Competizione has enjoyed its first image reveal earlier today - introducing Snetterton!

• First ACC British GT Pack DLC Snetterton Previews.
• New DLC schedule to launch Feb 10th.
• Contains 3 tracks and multiple liveries.

For me personally, I've never quite gelled with Snetterton - be it the slightly bland look of the circuit or the combination of corners on the (reasonably) recently re profiled track - however in the hands of the team at Kunos in ACC, it looks like they have put together a very, very impressive virtual recreation of this high speed British circuit.

In case you missed the post from yesterday, Kunos have confirmed the British GT Pack DLC will launch this February 10th for PC versions of the Assetto Corsa Competizione simulation, and will come packed with the three new tracks (Donington Park, Oulton Park and Snetterton), over 40 new liveries and 70 drivers from the British GT Championship - including a Championship mode within the game structure.

Pretty exciting times - stay tuned to RaceDepartment for some nice preview footage coming soon too

Superb looking header picture. Apart overly idealistic sharp lines separating different grass mowing lines.

You are obviously unfamiliar with British precision mowing.

EDIT: As this is RaceDepartment, where all-out war is but a misplaced comma away, I feel compelled to explain that the above sentence is a joke and is not to be taken seriously.

That is not really unrealistic, this effect is easy to create if you mow one row in one direction, and the next row in the opposite direction. I used to do it every week in my garden ( when I used to have one back in the day)
Anyway, if you have time to notice the grass when you're racing, you're not driving fast enough

I notice everything everytime

I didn't mean the mowed lines being unrealistic, but their edges are too perfectly sharp.

Incredible attention to detail from the groundsmen. They even removed the barriers and marshalls stand before they set to work.

I noticed that grass blade number 1,645,012,010 was not cut in the uniform manner it should be judging by the rotation of the blade which is obvious when looking at the mower pattern, so thats a no buy from me! Bloody poor show! Was so looking forward to this aswell!

Hopefully offline multiclass is coming for all tracks.

Scary tree...

We will never forget. RIP.

I always liked the 60's layout of Snetterton much better than the modern version. The same goes for Zandvort and Kyalami.

this screams for BTCC!

There is only one sector where the developers of GTR3 can be ahead of ACC developers and that is the announcement of the prize money. ACC team only announces the DLC prices the same day of the release ^^

With the difference ready that the content comes out...

Yes and the expensive prices from RR, just tell me where you can buy a dlc with 11 different cars paying 15'99€ (GT4 DLC) on RR? or maybe if RR can sell you 4 láser scanned tracks for 20€? Oh wait they can't

I'm waiting to see muy favourite track, Donington, instant buy!!! Congrats Kunos!!! I hope they get BTCC license under ACC could be a great DLC toó if they could

Former gardener checking in, yes such mowing patterns can be achieved with a good heavy cylinder mower, but it depends a lot on the density of the grass. Doing that with a Hayter Condor is difficult though. We need to ask the devs which lawnmower they were simulating!

Not gonna happen. Motorsport Games have the licence and the btcc game is being developed by a team full of mostly ex codemasters people

At least i hope they are boys from codemasters Dirt2.0 and not from disaster Grid2019 team, never drive a sh*t like it, Btcc deserves a great simulator

theres an interview with main guy on youtube and hes said the physics and graphics will be on par with the likes of ACC. Probably using the awful unreal engine aswell

one of the first games i ever played on a computer back in the early 80s was a game running on my brother's commodore 64 where you had to first steal your neighbour's lawnmower and then mow as much of your garden as possible before he came and tried to stop you. I think the dialogue starting the game read something like: "Good old Alfie, he's a decent chap, he won't mind ..." Developers probably played that taking a break from doing Snetterton graphics.

With this mixture of grass mowing extpertise and the world of virtual reality there is only one man we can summon to make sure every blade is virtually correct. JOBE! And woe betide any who cross him! https://images.app.goo.gl/KSZccTGX6obT9QiZA

For me, ACC is a beautiful woman who makes me look foolish daily. But she is beautiful, so I pursue her. Just that this week me and AMS 2 have a side-thing going on.

For a few weeks, I've been going back often to my old flame, Assetto Corsa. She still looks good to me after all these years.
