E3 2018 - Assetto Corsa Competizione First Gameplay

[Paul Jeffrey]

With E3 now in full swing over in LA, the team behind Assetto Corsa Competizione have revealed first gameplay from this exciting upcoming sim racing title...

We've had a couple of videos already from the title in action as driven by guests at the E3 event in LA, but today Kunos Simulazioni have released what we've all been waiting for, in game capture footage of ACC direct from the work in progress version of the title... driven by someone who knows what they are doing too!

Using Unreal 4 as the core game engine, it is immediately noticeable even at this early stage of development how much of an improvement the graphics are in the upcoming game over the current Assetto Corsa title, a simulation which frankly still does a very solid job of holding its own in the graphics department despite its relative grand old age in the sim racing arena.

Now that Steam Early Access deployment is getting closer (remember we are expecting a "summer" release at the moment), Kunos have taken to the E3 2018 event with a playable version of Assetto Corsa Competizione, running the software on the Thrustmaster stand for visitors to have a go around the Monza circuit as the title makes its public debut over in Los Angeles..

On a side note, if you want to kill some time until more info on ACC is released, why not check out the ACC Wish List thread and leave a comment, or watch our exclusive interview with Stefano and Marco on their hopes and plans for the new title HERE and HERE

Assetto Corsa Competizione should be available on Steam Early Access Summer 2018.

Thank you Panky.

Jesus, before someone sees it as the holy sign of the inclusion of the 1998 season, it's a placeholder from months ago, when this year's liveries were not even presented.

1998 Season confirmed!

does it mean we can still hope for a 1967 Mustang?

 

[Stelios]

Can we also have the BTCC season in AC, cars are pretty similar, it shouldn't take more than 10 days to copy pasta the code.... n stuff!

Alright, apologies, just happy to possibly see more content for the game and thought I'd share.

I really don't understand why some people can't understand the difference between a pre-alpha tech demo and a finished game.
For sure the Early Access build sold on Steam will be more advanced than this tech demo and still not the final build.
Then we'll have their official forum to give our feedback as we did with AC.

Don't u dare to say something crititcal about ACC. If you wan't to get banned in the Forums well there you go. Just Report like 10 Bugs and 5 missing Feautures and "Lord" Kunos will get you banned right away. Easiest task of his life.

Don't forget the people who get incredibly happy that you are making this sim
We are a passionate bunch in both positive and negative aspects.

Keep it up guys I can't wait for Early Access (and I think there is a possibilty that it comes out when I am not at home for 3 weeks so it's gonna be rough, I will live on YouTube probably watching gameplays )

 

[Montag_RSR]

Nice thoughts. But i think they are not appriciated from most People. The answer is they DO NOT CARE. It's pure Marketing and hyping so the Sales will be good. Any Feautur that you are asking for they will promise it till the Sales are ok and then slowly start to mention naah we can't do this. Oh **** we can't do this either etc. You got a really good Point in the last Part. They have no Idea what they are working on and then will say ah we coudn't know that since we don't know the Engine but also didn't plan some spare Time for this exact Reason.

You whole quadruple post is just pure BS.

 

[After_Midnight]

You'll buy a great product in EA wich includes personal Insults and a Free Ban in the ACC Forums as soon as you writhe something critical about ACC.

I hope ACC in EA will not going to be too expensive. With all this extra features

it's amazing how angry people can get over a videogame

Most of the time its really amazing and entertaining but sometimes its just frightening how far some people are willing to go

People seem to forget that WIP doesn't mean Wow it's perfect.

Ah that's nothing... you should see his PMs
He loves to call names and wish we get cancer.. has done so over and over again in the last couple of years to multiple members of the team over FB, Youtube, Twitter and now here.. but hey, what can you do? I guess it's just the inevitable part of being a game developer these days.

I guess its not necessary to be a developer to get this kind of words these days.
My last interlocutor wish me also the death to make the world to a better place because I'm not sharing his opinion and the way he's acting to discredit all the work Kunos or other companies has done in this business.
Exception: SMS
WTF

Looks good. But I find it hard to sponsor guys that acts like this.

Sure those guys got at each other in a forum thread before this happened but this is such an unprofessional act from Stefano it's not even funny.

I agree. Stefano has done the same to me. Basically told me FU.

 

[Mr Latte]

SimPit has two videos, if you fancy watching them.

I noticed the Ferrari Headset from the early images, I presume this is an upcoming product?
