Jorge I think the questions are not for you

You have been able to read what this section is for

if you are not happy with acc

erasing from steam is enough

trolling here not

Man, you got me wrong. I am the happiest ACC user in this thread. But most of the questions asked here can be answered by anyone using something called "common sense".

Hi to all again,
I was searching a different thing when i found a pics from Aws, was a numberplate with Aws on European Lemans series, so it could in the future you can release a dlc with Elms? I'm very happy and proud with this game, so some dlc like this will be top, and i think you can make a dream come true for a lot of people, so is ACC associated with Aws? Thank you for a game like this

Hi guys,

There you go my questions, if I´m on time...

First of all, I´m absolutely in love with ACC, thank you Kunos.

For Marco:

- Would be possible to add real weather by the location of the race? I know for example Barcelona in August with 60º on track would be tough, but this implementation as optional would be great and very realistic. Imagine that leagues which simulate real SRO calendar...

- Would be possible to implement DLSS 2.0?

Thank you guys.

What was the main reason for going with UE4 and what are some of the biggest challenges for creating a racing sim with it?

HI this is a great question but it has been answered on a few occasions. When I have some time I will dig it out for you. Thanks for the question though.

Taranta · Jun 10, 2020

Were you able to get feedback and data from the GT4 series teams? and during the pandemic and esport did you manage to get further feedback from the GT3 teams to include in the game?

Sabine · Jun 10, 2020

Kunos, what was the real reason why Stefano left?

adb13 · Jun 10, 2020

I hope it's not too late

Anyway, got few questions regarding PS4/Xbox release of ACC.
1. Will there be a spectator mode in online races? Would be huge for leagues that want to stream their races
2. Is there any chance the driver swaps will be somehow implemented into online races? I'm not expecting huge grids, but driver swaps would open a new chapter for console sim racing

Thank you

So you think Stefano was lying when he stated his reasons for leaving? Wow!

Tim Meuris · Jun 10, 2020

Kunos,

Can we expect a tcr america dlc in the future as it falls under the sro umbrella as well?
Acc is already epic ut that would make it unbeatable imo!

1. Why you say (Aris excatly) that you don't want to put detail explanation on setups, cause you will need to do it for all languages? English is global language and nobody need more.
2. Why we dont have basic things in multiplayer like JUST filtering servers by pings or connected drivers?
3. What about voting for kick users? Sometimes somebody do bad things in purposes or have huge ping and dont want to leave a race.
4. Consider new feature: global statistic for all trakcs and all cars and all users. For example - I can click on "Monza" tab and see how fast I am globally in comparison to all other drivers on particular car.

4. Most important - we know that ACC is not like "AC2". This is something different. So please - when you will do AC2, just name it Assetto Corsa 2: Nordschleife. Inside we need nothing more than Nurburbring... it will be the best sim game forever, you can bet!

For Kunos: I've pre-ordered ACC for XBOX, but I'm confused about not seeing specific information released yet. I love the physics and feel of AC, but have been frustrated by quality of life features that AC has for PC but doesn't have for XBOX (I don't mean ones that are omitted because of platform limitations, like editing configuration files). Can you confirm if it will have basic utilities like the ability to calibrate and customize wheels/pedals and to set and save global field of view settings?

RD: We are recording video on 10th of June.
People with questions can't be bothered to read OP so they keep posting questions after 10th.

I mean, you ask Kunos stuff to be fixed or request DLC, but you cant be bothered to properly ready the original post?

I did read the initial post, and every other one in the thread. I just missed the date. I guess I'd also differentiate those two situations because I didn't make anyone pay to read my post.

Prenten Olivier · Jun 15, 2020

Hello Marco,

My 2 questions are the following:

1. Is there a Le Mans track in progress?
2. Apart from GT3 (and GT4 for console release), is there another series planned?

Thank you in advance for taking the time to answer to your community.

Best regards,

Oli
