The Big Assetto Corsa Competizione Interview (Part 1)

Paul Jeffrey · Mar 6, 2018

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.

I think for Paul it will make sense to wait for time with better/best traffic to release part II anyway .. so lets not bother him with it anymore

It's not too different from yesterday.
@Paul Jeffrey dont listen to him

ouvert · Mar 7, 2018

if it is good time it is good time .. we blatantly pushed it through 200 replies .. now I suggest patience

Enagee · Mar 7, 2018

That was quick 200 replies.....should have made it 400 replies

but then it would probably end in an argument ...And who does this look like lol without the flora shirt

Brandon Wright · Mar 7, 2018

I'm sure the 200 replies thing was a joke. As Bram said yesterday, it depends on when it's edited and ready to be released.

Patient simracers? Oxymoron.

Paul Jeffrey · Mar 7, 2018

Yo!

200 replies +

Excellent job gentlemen

Sorry for the late reply, the annoyance of having to attend a real world job

Feel free to start a crowd funding campaign so I can be a full time sim racing journalist

Well I reckon I cocked up saying 200 replies, kinda happened quicker than I expected

(poor effort on the YT views tho chaps, come on help me out and get sharing or watching it 10 times in a row!). Was hopeful of 10k views by now, community you have been challenged!

Well seeing as we've surpassed 200 you will be wanting part 2, no? Ok leave it with me please, we are still sorting the last bits out and hopefully it will be today, although it could slip into tomorrow if getting everything sorted takes longer than expected.

Leave with, I will return!

Paul Jeffrey · Mar 7, 2018

Oh and thank you for the nice comments / views and shirt references! lol. Really appreciate it, we love making content people enjoy, and this seems to have been enjoyed, so job done!

Thanks

That's actually not far off the truth! Oh well, at least I've developed something of a unique(ish) side to my on screen self! lol

Check out the cars in the list.Marco mentioned the 2019 season too.

The list is the same as 2017 and also contains some mistakes (like including cars seemingly from GT4 Series or British GT), can't go by that.
