1 question for me so far - and it's about shirts

#popularityfail

 

[Jeremy Talbot]

For Kunos... Will we ever see an asia/pacific competition server? And any plans on strengthening the netcode so people from Australia/New Zealand can drive in Euro servers and vice versa. Sims like RF2 have no issue with it so surely it can be done?

 

[budlix]

Guys you are making such an amazing job! Keep rollin' RD!

 

[Flip-Flop Driver]

Marco Massaruto,
When are we getting that F1 game?

You've said once that the most sought after licenses were Blancpain and F1. Now that you have Blancpain...

Why not make a PES game like Konami does with their "license" of Fifa?
Pro Evolution Scuderia.
Licensing only the Ferrari F1 car, changing the name of the remaining teams and of all F1 tracks.
Slap a Leclerc picture on the cover and there it is

I found a shop from heaven for Paul, only 2.5hrs from me and a race track (PR) in between! Question is Paul when are you coming down to go shopping? The catch ..take me for a few laps on the track in a exciting car and I will show you where the shop is.

 

[turbo86]

I have no questions but i'd like to state that i'd love a historic FIA GT championship and proper mixed class 24h events like LeMans and Spa.

You had better start saving!!

 

[AngeloBonito]

Is it far to have an atmosphere with movement and fluid air flow between cars that influences and moves cars and vegetation?

 

[AngeloBonito]

...except for the xplane, every simulator has no air, it is empty, without an atmospheric element that is very important in cars action!!

 

[Knoxstar]

Paul, where I come from we don't smile for a mug shot
Is that allowed in the UK or were you just happy that the prison jumpsuit looked like one of your shirts?

Will the next DLC be Asia, America or other and will it include all classes running under the SRO?

 

[Marlonracer]

Still waiting for this.

Without these.

Otherwise, I still enjoy the game.

Paul, what do you think it says about your psychological profile that in the banner you put your pic towards the middle, but placed Chris's photo in such a way that half his face is cutoff?

I didn't make it so it shows I have no technical capabilities for anything that is even remotely considered to be artistic!

General rule of thumb round here - if it looks nice, and its something graphical, you can rest assured that I had no influence on it what so ever!

ACC Massiv improvment in vr , for when ?

 

[OZ67]

VR doesn't let you see the HUD or interface on your PC when you remove the VR headset , so you have to wear it to make any in game changes. Other sims you can take VR headset off and see everything on monitor and make adjustments and only need wear VR head set when start driving , Can this be fixed in ACC?

 

[Timodor]

Marco Massarutto (Kunos),...Please make Assetto Corsa 2 (with a range of cars) (more accurate tracks) with wind tunnel physics, improved tire model, but don't use the unreal engine. It looks bad in VR and is slow. Make is Mod friendly. Your the only guys who can raise the bar, as far as overall package.

 

[Jefferson Costa]

To Marco - If the idea comes to bring the other GT World Challenge series, how affected would be the hands-on approach you have to get the data, specially in regard to tracks?

To Paul/Marco - Do you see the current online model to hold championships being the norm in the long term as events on site in real tracks won't be a thing for quite a while?

I second this question!!! Exactly what I wanted to ask. Please improve the netcode.

Paul- Would you be on board if the livery gods got ahold of your favorite shirts and made some skins off of them.
Paul- Your good at it so I ask, have you been watching tape of the announcer pros in the booth?
Marco- is it true that Stefano is on a boat coding?
