  • What does the sim racing landscape look like in March 2024?
    This was always going to be an important period, with numerous game releases, major updates and key announcements in the sim racing space coming thick and fast. Sometimes, it's good to take a breath, and reflect on where we are.
    In this video, John takes you through the various changes that have already shaped the industry early this year, before a brief look at what's to come. It's worth noting (given the pace of development), that in the few days since recording this video, several of the topics discussed have progressed further yet again!

      No it isn't, hardware gets better but there isn't the games to utilise them, AMS2 has funky FFB just like PCars, most played 'sim' is AC which is old and most people use gash mods hashed together, then we rfactor2 which i won't even go there...... its awful currently IMO....

    Suprise of the year for me has been Le Mans Ultimate. I have zero interest in WEC or prototypes but after trying the game, I have never been so engaged with any other sim. It just feels right and all what the car is doing makes total sense. The multiplayer is great: full servers and surprisingly clean and competitive races. I know it shares the same roots as rFactor 2, but to me it feels like a totally different animal.

Licenses will expire and neither Codemasters nor EA is going to invest in them again. Especially not the latter party, as they've clearly already pulled Codemasters from the "Dirt Rally" series (and so I doubt there will be any update to DR2) and onto WRC, probably to churn out a game every year now. - The latest WRC(23) will probably be unavailable by the time WRC28 comes out.

    Thanks for the very informative video , my go to sim is AC with CM and I still think all others are playing catch up. The user created content is unparalleled. I hear people raving on about how good IRacing is but it's out of my price range as I guess it is for many others. I am disabled and race from my bed with a modified Wooden console table on wheels which rolls over my bed and the flat screen TV , computer and wheel base is all fitted to it. The pedals sit on a wooden flat base that is stopped from moving by the beds foot board. The information on sim racing you and some others have posted has helped me so much. Thanks for that. My very best wishes Brian aka g0rlbm.

      Might be worth reaching out to them. You might be able to get a discounted subscription if they knew your circumstance. I honestly believe Iracing is the most accurate as long as you get out of the lower classes. Some people just arent prepared to treat sim racing like real life. Coming from a track driver and a life of racing (MX5, R53, and life of racing shifter karts - 99 CRF125, RoK and Rotax Sr), it amazes me the dumb sh*t people do online. Just no care in the world for other drivers...
      Anyways, hope to see you over on Iracing

      Hi Thomas, Thanks! Hardware is a little more complicated because selling hardware is what the Race Anywhere business is built on. So of course, we have to be sensitive around this subject as we don't sell every product out there. Easy to do something like this for games as we don't sell them. :)
      However, worth noting that we will do some hardware focused content in the near future, but it will be of a different nature to this. Will certainly hope to make these a semi-regular thing moving foward as well.

    Well I have been doing SIM racing for 25-30 years, and I don't take any of this too serious. The AI in all the racing games are never going to behave like human online competitive racing. The AI are used to try out the tracks and something to practice against offline.
    Each Racing game has its good and bad features and none of them are ever going to be perfect and be like real life racing. They are GAMES people!!!!!!
    Talke a look at what kind of games we had 15-20 years ago. And now compare what we have now. Everyone seems to complain too much on each and every little nit picking feature.. I enjoy what we have - Racing games have come a long ways and will only get better.
    Take care.

    LMU has been a blast this year, its great to finally have a well package sim to jump into and race online, 110% agree with the "I want more" factor it gives you, something that iRacing had the opposite affect on me over the years, and to the point that even with the rain update It has lost me a long time player.
    I'm worried about AC2 at this point. With it supporting mods from the get go, I suppose it will just be a new sandbox sim for casual racing, cruising and drifting, not that its a bad thing but LMU and iRacing has proven that competitive online sims with no modding works better. I like sim racing because it puts me in a realistic competitive situation and unfortunately with out that AC2 already exists with AC1

    If Kunos can recapture the atmosphere and variety of the original AC and add in much of the physic advancements and graphics they used in ACC while retaining the allowing the modding community in attitude this will be the biggest thing in years as far as Sims go.
    Hopefully the new in house game engine Kunos is using for ACE will be a lot friendlier and more efficient for VR as well unlike ACC and unreal engine they used for that.
    Last rumor I heard was an early access release for PC , summer 2024 before the end of this fiscal year which comes to a close at the end of July.

    To add another comment. Yes, I am not holding my breath on the new game coming out - Assetto Corsa Evo (2). Will it be a good sequel to the original game AC 1, or will it be like a Project Cars 3 which was a disaster for most people. Time shall Tell and I will wait for all the reviews to come out on the released game on how good/bad it will be.
    Will Assetto Corsa Evo even come out this Summer, we will find out. It may be an early release type game like many others in the past.

    can someone please explain how anyone can drive with a 90deg flat base with no angle. wonder how one wrist feel after 10min of jamming and with that angle you have no steering stability just wonky wheel like this dude doing on kyalami. how do you drive like that it make no sense to a point that you tell me what car has such a straight angle. when F4 cars and many other open wheel cars are 30deg angle on the wheel.......

      Also why do you think the rain looks awful? Because you can’t see anything when ur behind another car? That’s just realistic and how it is irl you can’t really see anything in the rain when ur following another car. I mean the reflections are at least decent. iRacing is just more focused on driving realism than it is on graphics. But with the driving realism and tracks in the game you definitely get what you pay for.

    Not sure what's wrong with EA WRC, although the then engine is rendering a quite soft and mushy 3d world. Even on Ultra on a RTX4070 the detail and sharpness isn't there.
    This happened with the switch to UE.
    Something similar happens with ACC but it's way less noticeable and managed better in the settings.
    Also after coming from AC and ACC the tarmac feels horrible on WRC. Feels like I'm driving on rails and when turning the car rotates in the middle as it had a pivot point.
    It's sad to say, but I wish I didn't purchase it!😢
    A great feature would be adding a realism mode with a proper complex physics for the cars.

Then after it will be like a real forecast done by an algorithm and done based of off something like a real weather system so guess what? It's based on past races on these events and tracks but guess what again? That means more rain then not still! Horrible mistake imo they don't need to mske the weather system realistic that's just to much imo. Just do half and half call it a day I think it was a ridiculous move on there part.
    Also we saw they changed the name from ac2 to evo and still said 2024 so its def launching sooner then later. That was the last dlc and update for acc also. Thank god acc is dialed in even on console guys I was shocked.

Where it isn't necessarily considered a sim racing, that platform offers some of the most fun racing one can have, especially online (since the stupid AI always aims to corner bomb you). Sim racing doesn't have to be dull and dry like rFactor - fun should have its place and no racing game atm is more than WF. Of course, from all the flak I'm about to get a question for them: have you actually tried the game?
