love seeing AMS2 getting the attention it deserves
Probs the best looking PC sim too, I think ACC would be a close #2 though
AMS2 is possibly the most fun sim game I own, being able to easily jump into a race in any era of car I want is just great, I just wish it was the multiplayer was more popular.
You need to get on Race Department (Overtake) and download the season mods. All Liveries, Driver Names, and even Custom AI files - makes a huge difference to immersion
Didnt see you use it but just so you know, AMS2 also simulates the electronic aids the williams and some other cars had.
Load up the Formula HiTec 1 (1992) and 2 (1993) cars and youll see that you have Launch control avaliable as well as "DRS" which in these cars, raises the front nose of the car with the suspension in order to stall the rear wing and give more speed. You can also use it anywhere on the track (no DRS zones) . Love AMS2
The hitech cars are also the first from a first party developer to simulate active suspension.
Launch control is also used in V10g2 cars, which simulates the 2000 F1 season, but with the electronic aids of 2001-2003.
AMS2 has the potential to be the biggest F1 simulator.
I can potentially see future DLCs add more F1 cars and tracks.
I can think of a number of tracks and F1 seasons Reiza can make down the line.
Origin gen 1 (1950-1954) Pescara
Origin gen 2 (1959) AVUS
Retro 1976 Anderstorp
Retro 1982 Caesar's Palace
V10 1998 Albert Park
V10 2005 Sepang
Reiza 2006 Bahrain
Reiza 2009 Abu Dhabi
Ultimate 2016 Baku
I desperately want them to add Baku to this game
AMS2 with all the DLCs (on sale) is closer to the 70€ mark of F1 24, yet it gives you so much more content for that price, it's amazing.
The only real negative about the game, is that you cannot save mid-session.
Adding that the track DLCs can be expanded with updates,with newer and historical versions being added with time without extra cost.
a classic season in Automobilista 2 would be great.
Great video and indeed after playing this you never go back to f1 game. Did you know on overtake (formaly racedepartment) there are liverypacks with real driver names including their stats free to download for every F1 class.
Maybe you can make a video where you show them?
Once the Career mode drops Codies is cooked
Ams2 f1 cars are so cool especially the mp 4-4 which was sennas car
Quite strange actually when considering handling. Some of the professional f1 drivers are avid sim racers on various games and a lot of them critisise how hard the traction control is in the official game. For instance, traction fully off is nothing like driving the real thing. They collectively say the traction is easier to control in the real car than the game itself. Makes you wonder how these devs come up with the data
If you sign up to race department you csn download all of the liveries & drivers for virtually all of the different F1 eras. Ads to the immersion and if you try it im VR it takes it to the next level
These are the reasons why I cover just Automobilista 2 on MY channel. AMS2 is simply the best actual racing sim out there!
Great video love to see AMS2 get some F1 loving.
Also worth noting that Race Department has skin packs for all these F1 cars along with custom AI driver names. It really puts the cherry on the cake highly rate it. (Video idea right there 😂)
It's sad that this game's only on PC. If there were I console version I would try it, especially with these "classic" tracks like original Hockenheim, Adelaide and so on in modern graphics.
Ps5 in vr to compete against gt7. I would buy it looks frigging great
I hope Project Motor Racing will be some sort of Console Option to AMS2. I've seen it has some old GT2 that are really under presented on console
This sim uses the same engine as Project Cars 2... you could use that one as it had a console port!
There's a big important update coming soon for AMS2, the 1.6 update, which is going to make it even better. It's also prob the best game for VR.
I agree with you that EA/Codemasters should introduce two modes to their game. The arcade mode, which is what they currently have, and a sim mode for players who want better/more challenging handling and force feedback. But they won't bother while people keep buying the arcade game year after year after year. It's a cash cow so they prob feel they don't need to.
The only thing missing imo is mid 00s F1 cars and maybe one for the early 14-16 turbo hybrid era, but they more than make up for it with classic CART and the endurance content for the price 👍
This is one of the best handling cars in the game. So much fun to toss around, great grip but demands respect as it's got 370HP under the hood on a RW platform. It says all there is to say about Fred's work. The man's skills are truly masterful. Love each and every one of his mods - especially the front wheel drive ones that he released recently. Would love to see more FW cars being released in the future.
I went AMS2 after F1 22. 2 years ahead of you Matt
Automobilista is a fun game. It shows up in Humble Bundle's once in a while with other racing games and you can pick them all up for way less than F1 24 costs. I was introduced to the game through a Humble Bundle. I really enjoy playing around in the game even though I suck at it and constantly crash. It lets me race at VIR without paying a membership fee or needing to own any of the awesome cars in real life that are in the game. It's worth it just for that. 😁
Also for anyone who's sitting on the fence you can get a UI driven driver editor where you can tweak a ton of their driving attributes and name them how you wish ( I personally race against AI family, friends, TH-camrs, RL drivers and Mario lol). Also you can create your own championships with their own rule sets which I use to put my fav tracks together.
Formula Inter is the brasilian F4 with H-Shifter😃
Also other non-F1 cars in Automobilista 2 are great, the F-USA IndyCars are absolute monsters! and there are some hypercars on the form of IMSA GTPs, speaking of which, Reiza has a deal with IMSA so there will be more stuff on the way.
Yes great one :D test the Hitech ones
92-93 era :)
Reading the ai racer names 😭😭😭😭
You get skins with drivernames+skills on racedepartment.
Ea was the worse thing to happen to codemasters they don't care about the players and they just copy and paste every year. Same as fifa. Just ripping people off
Not to metion they have WEC and IMSA licensing so there is only more to come for many more classes
If you plan on doing a career id recommend turning off the tyre sounds because it actually is very unrealistic and kinda annoying if doing it for a long time
there's also the DLC formula tech gen 1 and gen 2 (cars from 1992 and 1993, with the aliens williams), and let's no forget the vintage/classic tracks
i think they should have more experimental additions to the f1 games, like the nordschleife, and other tracks, sponsors might be tricky but bring in older seasons like 2021
AMS2 is fantastic. My current go to sim. Really great mods available for the F1
Got it last week 50% having a blast, well worth it.
Like very much that you look into AMS2!!! Please do a test after Update 1.6, it will change very likely everything😅
Racing life on race department will have you covered for a career scenario series! I use it and it gives AMS2 a genuine career mode feel and you work your way through all series', full mod support and loads are free
I've been waiting for a game with this content!
Just so you know, you can make the modern F1 car's halo transparent in the settings!
i feel like the car feel in AMS2 is really weird. GT3 cars are swimming like its ice everywhere, and F1 cars are way too easy to drive.
best F1 game 2024 is imho definitelly iRacing
Unfortunately alot of us play the F1 games not for the actual feel of the cars but the immersion of its single and coop career mode. Yhere are plenty of better sims out there but these sims fail to add game to their titles, these sim titles need to add game to them interacting with teams drivers and progession. Good racers have game to them good sims only have longevity if they add more single player elements unless the player is into competitive online races.
True. But I'd argue AMS 2 is the closest you can get to a F1 sim experience that has a career mode feel where you can start with backmarker teams and work your way up to mid level teams and then top level teams.
I'd argue AMS 2 is better at this with vintage classic F1 than the actual F1 games. Since the actual FW games do not have a proper career or season mode for classic cars, no upgrades, and usually no more than 1 or 2 cars from the same year.
Ams 2 also has the period correct tracks. And unlike Assetto cords, they are high quality, and have arguably the best weather and track surface progression in sim racing. Also unlike AC, the AI in ams 2 actually have pit strategy and can do full length races. In AC the AI usually just drives until they run out of fuel, and don't care about tires, and even with a rain mod, most F1 mods don't have rain tires.
AMS 2 is the best all around to simulate 1970s to 2000 F1, you get full length races with pit stops and a proper weather system.
In this video the poster didn't really do ams 2 justice, he doesn't have all the F1 cars which are in a DLC. Also he doesn't have the liveries/skin pack which come with custom AI for each driver/livery. So senna performs and drives like senna, and prosts drives like prost etc.
The actual F1 car list for AMS 2 is:
1969/1970:
Brabham V8
Lotus V8
BRM/Honda V12
Generic V8
1975:
Brabham V8
Lotus V8
McLaren V8
Shadow Mattra V12
Shadow Mattra Ford V8 (a mid/backmarker teams who actually used different engines through season.)
1979:
Brabham V12 fan car
Brabham V8( they switched after the fan car was banned early on).
Lotus 79 V8
Shadow dn9 V8
1984:
McLaren MP4-1 Ford V8
Brabham Turbo i4
Arrows V8
Arrows turbo V6
1986:
Lotus 86 Turbo V6
Bennetton Turbo i4
Williams turbo v6
1988:
McLaren MP4-4 Turbo V6
Lotus/Williams Turbo V6
Arrows Ford V8
Generic team car with V8 (with less HP than Ford v8).
1990:
McLaren MP4-5 V10
Williams V10
Bennetton Ford V8
Lola - Lamborghini V12
Generic Backmarker V8 (lower HP, different V8).
1991:
McLaren MP4-6 V12
Williams V10
Ferrari V12
Bennetton V8
1992:
McLaren mp4-7 V12
Williams V10
Ferrari V12
Bennetton V8
1993:
McLaren MP4 8 Ford V8 (less HP than bennetton Ford V8)
Williams V10
Ferrari V12
Bennetton Ford V8
1995: Ferrari V12
1996: Arrows V10
McLaren V10 (with the 2nd brake pedal like the real car, and it works!)
2001 Williams V10
2013 Red Bull V8
Then the modern cars I don't remember.
As you can see. They have plenty of backmarker and mid tier teams cars racing against the top teams of the same year. So you can roleplay your own career mode of "climbing the ladder". I usually start out in the 70s with shadow, then work my way up to lotus, McLaren or Brabham (who all get better or worse as the years go on, accurate to real life. So you might switch to McLaren in 1975, but by 1984 McLaren is falling behind without a turbo engine, so you switch to lotus, who then falls behind in 1990 etc. etc.).
These are things you can't do in the F1 games. So AMS 2 is the closest we got to a classic F1 career mode, with 3-5 cars for each year, and most the historical tracks. Also unlike other Sims, AMS 2 has good AI for full length races with pit stops and weather changes,and weather is one of the best in AMS 2 as well.
You can also simulate some f1 drivers careers who switched to Indycar for a period back to F1. AMS 2 has the 90s indycars, back when Indy had multiple different chassis & engine suppliers. Each Indy year in AMS 2 has around 5 different engines manufactures and 3 different chassis makers. It was not a spec series in the 90s. So there's plenty of variety of 90s indycars to choose from.
@@nicklibby3784 I'm 50 and been an avid F1 follower since the late 80s and caught up on most of the history pre 1990 (age adds perspective). Although I do agree that the additional classic content is good, I don't believe the modern F1 game consumer actually care about it at all, hence the reason it's not in the official game. Personally I do like the content of the current F1 games although I believe that there should be a DLC per year of each rule set rather than a "new" game each year
700 hrs in, average at best, but my heart is in the classic formula cars
With the new update coming, v1.6 is gonna be awesome
AMS2 is my favorite overall!
I love this game but the F1 car of this gen is hard for me to get fast with
AMS 2 is sooo good for F1 xD I`m doing the default ingame 1991 season and its stupidly fun especially with custom livery and AI mod. Not perfect tho, you cant force tire change so AI will only do soft tires but i find that a minor issue, the AI is generally really good and fair.
For alternatives to F1 - GT1 and Group C are especially good and if you wanna go goofy karts or trucks are there lol
the DTM (German 90s) and the V8 Supercars are also a blast to drive.
Interesting. It might be because of the difficulty setting you are on and the length of race. I've seen the ai use mediums, and hards. Most will usually stick to soft though. Depending on the conditions and scenario.
@@nicklibby3784 the next Update (1.6) will see an AI overhaul (including more realistic pit logic) so it might fix that
Sadly driving on wet with ai is just not pleasent
Love the actual monaco unlike others
Bro is every where
If i had ams2 id use the gen 4 cars as
Camera reversed is messing with me lol
Game looks good
Nope, it is not. The best F1 cars are the RSS Formula Hybrid and VRC F1 cars in Assetto Corsa . 👍
They only have very few though, especially in terms of cars in the same year. Also not all mods come with wet tires, and do rain races in AC and getting the AI to do full length races with a pit strategy is difficult. Also the AC historical tracks are absolutely no where near as good quality as ams 2. Which only few exceptions.
AMS 2 has 3, 4 up to 5 different teams cars for each year of F1. Including the top teams & mid tier to back marker teams. The AI can do full length races with believable out strategy, and the historical tracks are better quality, and the weather system and track progression system is just better.
AC wins in terms of sprint races and single cars. But if you want to simulate a classic F1 season, with multiple teams cars of the same year, with full length races, with accurate weather. It is hard to beat AMS 2. Yes, AMS2 has it flaws, but the positives can easily make up for the cons.
I want to play it on my ps4
ams2 > f125 too
Asseto Corsas F1 cars are better especially the VRC Formula Alpha cars.
But acs ai sucks that's why I got ams2
@@dinophone8084same and the cpu 99 issue.. don't get me started
@@dinophone8084You can't even Slow down to let the AI by in AC. (Idk If there's some sort of AI Mod for it)
Real Racing 3
It has to be the most accurate F1 driving sim out there
And they recently added Interlagos to it!
It's a mobile game, really accurate?
Real Racing 3 is far from being a racing simulator (at most a simcade). Maybe Absolute fits that bill but the game is so broken and the developers made so many bad decisions that I don't think it's even worth it.
There are rumors on the internet about codemasters that they are losing the coorporation with F1 after 2025
