The Big Assetto Corsa Competizione Interview (Part 1)

[Paul Jeffrey]

RaceDepartment quiz Marco Massarutto and Stefano Casillo of Kunos Simulazioni about the upcoming Assetto Corsa Competizione.

We asked the community to submit a few questions to the developers of the upcoming Assetto Corsa Competizione racing simulation, and frankly the response we received was incredible. Some 245 posts later and we've picked out a few key questions to throw at the guys, with some interesting responses...

So if you are keen to hear more about this exciting new title, catch the first part of our interview at the head of this article, and don't forget to subscribe!

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

Check out the Assetto Corsa Competizione here at RaceDepartment for the latest news and discussions regarding this exciting upcoming sim. We intend to host some quality League and Club Racing events as well as hosting some great community created mods (we hope!). Join in the discussion today.

You are really trying hard.. good effort

What are you suggesting sir?

 

[BhZ]

Yes, just checked, 2 teams...So we get the Jaguar AND the Lexus

 

[Jordi Oliva]

Well I hope it's soon as possible. If it's ready to release, won't make sense from my perspective to wait until Spa 24. But for marketing perspective it might make sense (?)

Intrigued to know how much content (like tracks) will EA have in it's beginning. Will it be very limited in content like just few cars/tracks, or closer to full product and more like beta

* Useless speculation intensifies *

Well, seeing that you persist asking me, i have to say, whithout any doubt, that you may be again completly wrong, but hey is my opinion, i think all this is misinformation... maybe.

The lexus too that will be smart in the 2018 list theres also acura (nsx) , ginetta and chevrolet c7r gt3. Marco said all the cars that would be quite a haul of licenses.

 

[dan944]

Are the Acura and Corvette confirmed to be racing in Blancpain?

Really? I thought it was the bridge from Star Trek

Star Fleet regulations forbid the wearing of "that shirt"

This news article promises at least 12 different cars for 2018, guaranteed, as the Pro list secures 11 cars and we know that the Emil Frey Team will use the Jaguar in some rounds (probably in Pro-Am?).

It is also stated that this rule will allow for exceptions on the 24h of Spa, so if other ones either join midseason, the 24h of Spa or for 2019, that can only be good for diversity with the players (and more work for Kunos, uops )

The new tire flex sounds like it will be a b**** to mod without official modding support and annotations what the tire parameters do... If there are per-car tire paramters at all, given that the official cars will use the same kind of tire compounds.

That would certainly violate the Prime Directive. Imagine if we made first contact with aliens and they were greeted with that shirt....."Turn it around boys, we have no business on this planet".

sure .. Pirelli P Zero DHD and WH ... only two tyre compounds .. that is good thing ... for devs and for us

 

[Entombed]

realistic tyre wear and punctures would suit me.
