Also about the free roam.. in some interview Marco said that free roam roads are also LIDAR scanned, so real roads. I think he strongly hinted that there will be multiple countries to drive in, eventually, but Germany is among them. Also for people complaining about having to wait for mod support, it was the same thing in AC1. Mods weren't supported in AC1 until the Early Access ended. It makes perfect sense, when you're hunting bugs and looking for feedback, you don't want mods mixed into it
@shredd5705 yup people have no idea how hard it is to design code to work so well with mods like AC. AC handles mods so well compared to other games I've played.
I can't even understand these people constantly asking for mods. I've been playing AC1 since 2018 and to me if kunos manages to make a great all around product I don't even see the need for that. Of course more content is great and all, but doesn't feel like a necessity to me. Also kunos seem to be hinting at working on this game for the next good couple of years, they sound really invested and happy about it.
modding is important and helps extend the life of a game, that said i feel some people are way too impatient about it and expect it in the EA. the priority should be to have a solid base game with official content before we start thinking about mods already
@@DjangoGroen To be fair the game seemed pretty polished in the demos they used for the simexpo, and they took a bit of a delay from the initial date of release. So they probably managed to get some good optimization and bug cleaning
So basically they’re taking everything good about previous AC games, Gran Turismo, Forza, Project Cars 2 and putting it one with a very current car list. This is going to be amazing
It is going to be good. Information I gather from Kunos interviews: • vr support day 1 • msaa 2x 4x 8x • filmic AA (I’m guessing temporal AA) • in house game engine allow them to push boundaries they couldn’t with Unreal (they asked Epic engineers but there was no support)
Tbh, Unreal has always had a problem with racing games, especially UE5. I mean, it still works for arcade racers and cartoonish/kart racing games...etc. But for sim racing, you really need a dedicated engine designed for the little nuances, those little things that make all the difference when racing realistically!
@@OverTake_gg I prolly missed it, but I can confirm that he mentioned the S2000 in an italian interview too (can't remember which one). At this point it's not a coincidence 👀👀👀
AC Evo really looks like it's going to be the closest thing to a Gran Turismo on PC, and I'm fully on board for it. Maybe they could even introduce an option for a simcade handling to really open the gates for more people, but who knows. I'm really hyped for this game.
@xallehatesshorts Marco was quite clear on this. The more realistic the physics and handling, the easier it is to drive, because it is more natural and predictable. Simcade is only applicable when you have a limited physics model
Unlike other game developers/studios, I fully trust and believe in Kunos to deliver what they say they will. I have never been more excited for a game especially with the prospect of a free roam mechanic but with actual sim physics.
I would love to see some third-party developers focus more on the F1 side of Assetto Corsa Evo (ACE). It's a perfect acronym! But AC has some great aftermarket F1 prototypes, and having them part of ACE would be a massive move!
Proberbly wont going to happen in any official manner, since you need to have the rights to use any official F1 brand from the FIA/FOM. But i agree, a F1 game on this level of simulation would be awesome.. I got some AC F1 car commercial bought mods, and their level of detail is just mindboggling, and that high level of detail should be default in a official F1 game, but alas.. Therefor its maybe better like this, and dispite not having "Official F1 cars" we got even better thanks to mods no other official game dared even to present.

Looking forward to Abulzz's Targa Florio mod in the new Evo. No licensing required there. Just need someone to pair up with Alfa Romeo to release the Tipo 33 TT12 from '73. All this also depends on VR performance though so I'll not hold my breath but keep my fingers crossed.
2:28 We get what Test Drive Unlimited Solar Crown should have been. I love that they will go a similar way with the ingame economy as older Gran Turismo games, it is awesome to earn money and buy/tune cars. AC Evo could become the GOAT or racing games!

Very cool, hope that they allow parts to be purschased at the shops. It would be cool if you could buy koni, bilstein, kyb, magneti injectors so on and so forth.
Basically they took AC1 and improved it, then they took everything major from modding community and added it into the game. And I am loving it, the only thing I wish for is if they contact Ilya and implement his Rain effects, since those are the best looking ones in the racing games up to this day.
Thanks for the video! If you get a chance, it would be great to know if native openxr support is in the works for vr. Along with fixed/dynamic rendering.
There is one think which is pretty good in GT7 and I would love to see in this game: custom liveries. GT7 has its own editor and you can share with the community. Would be nice to have at least a way to put custom liveries in the game.
You know who first did custom liveries that could be shared with other people way before GT7?....Forza, waaay back on the Xbox 360. It was insane!.....I'm not sure if the feature is still available in FM (2023), but it was in all other Forza games, including Forza Horizon 5
From what we know so far this sounds like they took some very good parts from Horizon nad Grand Turismo and blended them down into the epic FFB and graphics that kunoz delivers. This game is gonna be so big for so many years!
Looks super and no question I will add it. My only concern is that because of the breadth of categories and scope, multiplayer will be heavily diluted as it is on, say, AMS2, with few players in any one lobby. ACC being in effect a GT3 sim tends away from this problem but even then suffers from Monza Spa Monza Monza Monza Spa Monza syndrome with other circuits thrown in less often and population heavily dependent on time of day. For this reason I’m sure iRacing will continue to be the go-to multiplayer game despite its absurd pricing model and being a now highly outdated platform. Not really the fault of Kunos but the player base has always seemed myopic regarding GT3s at Spa and Monza and the driving standards reflect that
"So far, Hyundai is the only non-European brand confirmed". You showed the Ford Fiesta ST in the confirmed list. I know Ford Europe is a huge part of Ford and they've contributed many models that I'd consider "European cars" (and I hate that in games like Gran Turismo and Forza, cars like RHD Sierra & Escort Cosworths are eligible for American races but not European ones), but I also think it's hard to argue that Ford isn't a non-European brand.
With this economy system and with the open world I feel like they're trying to make a Forza Horizon with realistic handling. Which is nice. However I hope there will be a "pick a car, pick a track, good to go" model too, as I'm more into this model as the old AC did, rather than these economy system games. But who knows, maybe we will be free to do some "tricks" to make it pick a car pick a track model for ourselves as they said there will be no microtransactions
I hope GTA VI devs take note of the immense market there is for immersive free driving. Last time with GTA V the driving was very arcade-like, even without manual transmission and slower than normal supercars.
@@szymonski1905 honestly I think a lot of simracers would be already happy with just a wheel support implementation, only for giving us the ability of chillingly driving around the roads of Vice City with a proper steering wheel. And I know, all of this it may sounds stupid, but I invite everyone to try Mafia The City of Lost Heaven on PC with a steering wheel (they're natively supported, at least it was with the G27) and see how it's way nicer to just drive calmly around Lost Heaven compared to a pad
no, please don't. I already hated realistic physics in GTA IV. I don't play GTA to drive a car, but to become a boss by killing a lot of bad people or robbing them.
@@sebastian1961 GTA IV physics were not that realistic, they just made all the car springs ultra soft and made it so nobody wore seatbelts so crashing would make you fly out of the windshield which did not help for the driving in the game
I hope im wrong, but renting and buying cars in the freeroam kinda sounds like we have to grind to get access to the good cars... Hopefully this is only for carreer mode or something, because games that introduce this type of grind have made me play so much in the beginning i get bored with the game before i get to the good stuff. Im not sure im gonna buy this game if its like that
In assetto corsa with the use of custom shader patch you can add rain with realistic physics that even moves with the wind. The rain drops on the car here looked really basic and not affected by the wind which is a feature modders added to assetto years ago. It's crazy to me that all these companies can't accomplish something that modders can in a much shorter time frame.
I am tempted to say. Is this mod work 100% everywhere and testing 100%. Maybe , just maybe the reason. From end user like us, we dont realize all angle. At same time, i completly agree with you
@@zachdoran10 Also, what the fuck is a modding company? Modders are usually one person or a very small team of people that operate for zero profit, such as the one i referenced (custom shaders patch and CM) which was created by Peter Boese free of charge for the community.
looks like they want to be competitive with very popular game like Forza Horizon or Gran Turismo so there is a big risk that we will get something like Project Cars 3 ))
This is going to sound dumb but in terms of the free roam and car customisation... I compare it to GTAV. I really liked back in the day, me and my friends would roam the world in very different cars which we made to look how we liked.
Hmmmm I'm a bit afraid that SRP wont exist on AC Evo and its our favorite free roam maps Scenario 1: It will exist but a Japanese company will take over shutoko expressway map LiDAR scanned and will be for sale but developers of SRP wont be there and wont be the ones owning it, it will be that Japanese company Scenario 2: It wont exist on AC Evo, because the Japanese government wont allow it in the context of "It entices illegal racing and speeding on shutoko express way" I know its over the top but thinking how these people think welp..... I guess only way to get around these 2 scenarios is that hide racing things in the pretext of: 1. Use the word "driving simulator" it makes foreigners more familiar with the express way and Japanese road rules. 2. Economy exist so getting "caught" speeding gets you a fine and getting into an accident gets you a fine and damage repairs(kinda like need for speed and GTA V role play lol) I dont know but its just my speculation of the licensing stuff, like i wanna make this mod but need to ask those guys first(dont get me wrong it gives modders a network and a future job opportunity) but when SRP ask for a license to make the mod chances gets a bit slim when the business peeps and government peeps gets involved
If I am able to buy my own car and it will be mine and unique, I also wish damage and costs (ingame credits) for repairs. And serious realistic costs. People would drive way more responsible if there were consequences for their actions. Dont know why no game dev did this so far.
lets be honest here, assetto corsa doesnt "have" drifting. AC1 IS sim drifting. there is no other digital drifting scene. there's no other drift sim. there's no other place with this much in depth to one discipline such as drifting with ac (trust me, ive looked around) i spent the last idk, like 3 years debating on whether or not i should get AC, since i dont have a wheel, trying out every drift game out there, and AC IS drifting for the sim they realized it and will add it for ACEvo which is just cherry on top of the cake, they really know what they're doing
They featured the i30n with 8-speed dct, instead of 6MT. In real life the dct is more comfortable and easier to drive, but why in the game? This is assetto corsa, why they chose the heavier, less interesting DCT version of the car? Now I only believe they're putting more and more sh*t into the game like forza and nfs.
@@szymonski1905 imagine getting THIS triggered over something this small 😂😂 we got our laundry list of official asks for assetto corsa we been asking for a literal decade and this dude "BUT MUH 6 SPEED MANUAL HYUNDAI, PLS NO DCT" like i wanna try a dct. idk what it is and never tried it. i wouldnt try the hyundai if it has a normal 6 speed because fuck me there's 200 other cars id rather drive
I'll follow and like everyone playing AC EVO, sometimes it's interesting to watch people progressing in career, driving academy, doing races. sometimes I'm too tired to race myself but can't wait to jump in...
Where is the AI that suggests a setup when I enter tracks, laps and weather? I want to race and not spend hours tinkering with the setup. A real racing driver also has his technicians for the setup.
It will never happen because of the ABBA song: "Money, money, money".. :) Setup market is a bigger business currently than the games themselves. And yes, it's a shame.
I’ve spent an embarrassing amount on setups and IMO in AC, ACC and iracing even, the base setups are actually a great place to start. The bigger thing I would like in ACE is fixed setup races like in iracing.
@@blaze23045 Then try making a single setup in Richard Burns Rally... it's gonna take you so long that you'll spend more time in that one single FUNCTIONAL setup than the time you spent making all your setups in all your other sim racing games combined...
One thing caught my eye is car customization. Specifically aerodynamic customization, that is very complex thing to simulate properly even on factory stock cars with all the real data available , now how are they going to simulate properly when player puts a giant wing on vinatge cars that has practically no aero data to begin with. I actually hate this customization direction , it makes it feel more gamey than a hardcore sim and if they are going to implement it properly the result will always be sub optimal guess work , waste of resources for small dev team with very niche product.
Being more of a game is good thing, because thats what ac1 really lacked, why should we have to choise when it can be both. Kunos plan is proably to bring the game to wider audiance, it could really be groundbreaking if they deliver on all fronts, it has never been done before. This could be really good for the racing game genre
I see microtransaction HEAVEN. Shitty free mods with no flexibility. Paid mods with flexibility and variants / higher quality in feel and look. Paid skins for gloves / helmets / shoes / clothes. Chests like CS2 for those. Available on steam markets. Don't forget ultra rare legendaries from the chests - Steering wheels, rims, liveries, accessories. Imagine the possibilities if they do chests like cs2 😂
the devs said (well at least abt the official more soon to be added cars/dlc) it wont have any microtransaction, but i think there will be a lot of paid mods free mods imo is gonna be crap
yeah yall really talking out your ass it's been said, written and repeated that kunos is 100% against microtransactions. "oh they're full of shit all devs are the same", try to think of kunos as the Fromsoftware of racing games. they dont lie and they will deliver
@@yurilopes420 yea the only thing that will be a paid one is the mods, either tracks or cars (mostly cars) so no wonder if there will be some sort of protest from the players bcs a lot of mods will be a paid mods unlike the old AC, and tbf im not gonna be surprised if the old AC will have more players than AC evo bcs of this
Does the lighting in EVO look weird to anyone else? The color grading already looks too much like ACC for my taste, but that aside, the brightness in a lot of scenes looks kind of wonky. That final shot of the Alpine at the end of the video perfectly sums up what I'm talking about. It looks really washed out.
Matter of taste, but personally, overall from what I've seen, I think this is the best looking sim yet. Real life sometimes looks washed out, depending on conditions. Maybe there will be tweaks to those things, AC1 had plenty of post processing and other visual tweaks. This is just pre-alpha. But to me it already looks pretty great
yall are weird its like a pre alpha. it's like a vertical slice of the game. shows a bunch of stuff, but just a bit of most of it graphics are most likely not final. and there will for sure be adjustments you're suffering from nothing, relax its ok
For me as a PC sim racer, triple screen support should be a day one priority. I run three 27" monitors, and with either just the middle monitor available, or a horrible stretched effect like in WRC, it would not be worth it. I would hope with the experience Kunos have they understood a large portion of their customer base run triples. I have a lot of enthusiasm for Evo, and think it could be epic
Im almost sure i heard it would have VR and tripple screen support at launch. BTW... If you use tripple screen, do you only get 1/3 of the framerate, or how badly does it affect your fps? I got a 4080 Super, and only need to get one more monitor to get a tripple screen setup, but i cant stand framerates below 120fps, so im not sure if it is worth it.
@@EspenFrafalne I did also read it has triples at launch, but it was a bit vague in this interview and they kind of glossed over it. Triples were definitely not shown in action at the expo. Which means its not set up for it yet. They have claimed it optimised for VR though, which is excellent news as I run a Crystal Light. Triples for me did drop the frame rate a bit, but not too much mate. I still get about 200 FPS, and previous to that was hitting a steady 240. They are 27" 1440p 0.03ms 240hz Oleds, so possibly a bit easier on the CPU and GPU than IPS or VA panels. Which has to be factored in. Depending on the rest of your set up and game settings, you should achieve over 120fps, that's absolutely doable. If you ever need help with your fov btw, you tube trauma team, the guy is a fov genius. 👍
@@exponentialbet6292 Expos and E-sports events tend to use curved 32:9 monitors instead of triple screen setups. I guess because it gives it a cleaner and more seamless look, while a triple monitor setup gives a more "improvised" impression. Id probably prefer a 32:9 monitor if i could find a nice curved one at a reasonable price, but the best compromize between quality and cost, has a prohibitive pricetag of 2000 dollars where i live (its probably 30% cheaper in the US). Maybe one day/year - during a black friday event 😏
Why wouldn't they just release a GT3/4 DLC in ACE? ACE doesn't seem to lack any features of ACC. Just join GT3 lobbies & leagues, why would it need a separate client.
@@philclarke7712 "most of the work is done" man tell me you've never worked without telling me. you're the same as those rocket league players who would go "bro whats taking so long, just easily *port the entire game to unreal engine and release rocket league 2* , so easy, just do it" its not that easy

I don’t believe GTA driving will ever not be „arcadey”
@@szymonski1905 yeah too many fortnite kids and now the RP losers on it for it to be even slightly more realistic
@@szymonski1905 honestly I think a lot of simracers would be already happy with just a wheel support implementation, only for giving us the ability of chillingly driving around the roads of Vice City with a proper steering wheel.
And I know, all of this it may sounds stupid, but I invite everyone to try Mafia The City of Lost Heaven on PC with a steering wheel (they're natively supported, at least it was with the G27) and see how it's way nicer to just drive calmly around Lost Heaven compared to a pad
no, please don't. I already hated realistic physics in GTA IV. I don't play GTA to drive a car, but to become a boss by killing a lot of bad people or robbing them.
@@sebastian1961 GTA IV physics were not that realistic, they just made all the car springs ultra soft and made it so nobody wore seatbelts so crashing would make you fly out of the windshield which did not help for the driving in the game
I hope im wrong, but renting and buying cars in the freeroam kinda sounds like we have to grind to get access to the good cars... Hopefully this is only for carreer mode or something, because games that introduce this type of grind have made me play so much in the beginning i get bored with the game before i get to the good stuff. Im not sure im gonna buy this game if its like that
In assetto corsa with the use of custom shader patch you can add rain with realistic physics that even moves with the wind. The rain drops on the car here looked really basic and not affected by the wind which is a feature modders added to assetto years ago. It's crazy to me that all these companies can't accomplish something that modders can in a much shorter time frame.
I am tempted to say. Is this mod work 100% everywhere and testing 100%. Maybe , just maybe the reason. From end user like us, we dont realize all angle. At same time, i completly agree with you
wind affects the car in ACC and every other sim. also, kunos is probably smaller than a lot of the modding companies.
@@zachdoran10 Also, what the fuck is a modding company? Modders are usually one person or a very small team of people that operate for zero profit, such as the one i referenced (custom shaders patch and CM) which was created by Peter Boese free of charge for the community.
So, Kunos saw all the mod support in AC and said "How do we monetize this?" Thats how their wording makes it sound.
1:35 did you mean over at racedepartement?
I would love to see Honda in ACE maybe 2024 civic type-R? That would be sweet.
When will this hit consoles?
@@sebastiennudo7792 *At least a year after the early access*
Did AC Evo fix the real crappy braking dynamic with pedals?
I hope the damage model is better than ACs and ACCs but not really hopeful, it’s probably similar to those..
looks like they want to be competitive with very popular game like Forza Horizon or Gran Turismo
so there is a big risk that we will get something like Project Cars 3 ))
Sounds really promising but it also sounds like they are years away from a full release.
As dev said: ". . . Updates for years to come, hopefully forever." In this situation, there is no such thing as "full release"
Ok, so is it 100% confirmed that Nordschleife is included in the base product, not a paid DLC?
Is there also something known about GT3 classes or other race classes added in AC Evo?
This is going to sound dumb but in terms of the free roam and car customisation... I compare it to GTAV. I really liked back in the day, me and my friends would roam the world in very different cars which we made to look how we liked.
crazy to me that their emissives/lights are no better than AC1. Meanwhile GT has amazing looking reflectors, projectors etc.
This is another small game?
Sounds more like a big racing game by looks of things thst could have every party happy.
Step aside dev teams of Modern Forza Motorsport 2024 Asseto Corsa is coming to town!
Hmmmm I'm a bit afraid that SRP wont exist on AC Evo and its our favorite free roam maps
Scenario 1:
It will exist but a Japanese company will take over shutoko expressway map LiDAR scanned and will be for sale but developers of SRP wont be there and wont be the ones owning it, it will be that Japanese company
Scenario 2:
It wont exist on AC Evo, because the Japanese government wont allow it in the context of "It entices illegal racing and speeding on shutoko express way"
I know its over the top but thinking how these people think welp.....
I guess only way to get around these 2 scenarios is that hide racing things in the pretext of:
1. Use the word "driving simulator" it makes foreigners more familiar with the express way and Japanese road rules.
2. Economy exist so getting "caught" speeding gets you a fine and getting into an accident gets you a fine and damage repairs(kinda like need for speed and GTA V role play lol)
I dont know but its just my speculation of the licensing stuff, like i wanna make this mod but need to ask those guys first(dont get me wrong it gives modders a network and a future job opportunity) but when SRP ask for a license to make the mod chances gets a bit slim when the business peeps and government peeps gets involved
I hope they push the graphics to the absolute pc limits. We need it as good if not better than gt7
It's not possible to get GT7 level graphics on pc.
You do realize that this is a real sim not simcade like GT7 ?
PHYSICS will take majority of your pc load then spare room is for rest of the stuff.
If I am able to buy my own car and it will be mine and unique, I also wish damage and costs (ingame credits) for repairs. And serious realistic costs. People would drive way more responsible if there were consequences for their actions. Dont know why no game dev did this so far.
i need RX7 with RE Amemiya kit tho
lets be honest here, assetto corsa doesnt "have" drifting. AC1 IS sim drifting.
there is no other digital drifting scene. there's no other drift sim. there's no other place with this much in depth to one discipline such as drifting with ac (trust me, ive looked around)
i spent the last idk, like 3 years debating on whether or not i should get AC, since i dont have a wheel, trying out every drift game out there, and AC IS drifting for the sim
they realized it and will add it for ACEvo which is just cherry on top of the cake, they really know what they're doing
They featured the i30n with 8-speed dct, instead of 6MT. In real life the dct is more comfortable and easier to drive, but why in the game? This is assetto corsa, why they chose the heavier, less interesting DCT version of the car? Now I only believe they're putting more and more sh*t into the game like forza and nfs.
Calm down 🤣🤣🤣
@@szymonski1905 imagine getting THIS triggered over something this small 😂😂
we got our laundry list of official asks for assetto corsa we been asking for a literal decade and this dude "BUT MUH 6 SPEED MANUAL HYUNDAI, PLS NO DCT"
like i wanna try a dct. idk what it is and never tried it. i wouldnt try the hyundai if it has a normal 6 speed because fuck me there's 200 other cars id rather drive
Something tells me Kunos will implement gt7 strategy and make it pay to race lol(rent as well)
How do we get early access?
On Steam, January 16
I'll follow and like everyone playing AC EVO, sometimes it's interesting to watch people progressing in career, driving academy, doing races. sometimes I'm too tired to race myself but can't wait to jump in...
i am worried now lol no lie im worried about the lauch. some of the things confirmed arent good for a 2025 video game period
nah kunos are the best developers i have ever seen
Where is the AI that suggests a setup when I enter tracks, laps and weather?
I want to race and not spend hours tinkering with the setup.
A real racing driver also has his technicians for the setup.
It will never happen because of the ABBA song: "Money, money, money".. :) Setup market is a bigger business currently than the games themselves. And yes, it's a shame.
I’ve spent an embarrassing amount on setups and IMO in AC, ACC and iracing even, the base setups are actually a great place to start. The bigger thing I would like in ACE is fixed setup races like in iracing.
@@blaze23045 Then try making a single setup in Richard Burns Rally... it's gonna take you so long that you'll spend more time in that one single FUNCTIONAL setup than the time you spent making all your setups in all your other sim racing games combined...
One thing caught my eye is car customization.
Specifically aerodynamic customization, that is very complex thing to simulate properly even on factory stock cars with all the real data available , now how are they going to simulate properly when player puts a giant wing on vinatge cars that has practically no aero data to begin with.
I actually hate this customization direction , it makes it feel more gamey than a hardcore sim and if they are going to implement it properly the result will always be sub optimal guess work , waste of resources for small dev team with very niche product.
Being more of a game is good thing, because thats what ac1 really lacked, why should we have to choise when it can be both. Kunos plan is proably to bring the game to wider audiance, it could really be groundbreaking if they deliver on all fronts, it has never been done before.
This could be really good for the racing game genre
I see microtransaction HEAVEN. Shitty free mods with no flexibility. Paid mods with flexibility and variants / higher quality in feel and look. Paid skins for gloves / helmets / shoes / clothes. Chests like CS2 for those. Available on steam markets. Don't forget ultra rare legendaries from the chests - Steering wheels, rims, liveries, accessories. Imagine the possibilities if they do chests like cs2 😂
the devs said (well at least abt the official more soon to be added cars/dlc) it wont have any microtransaction, but i think there will be a lot of paid mods free mods imo is gonna be crap
yeah yall really talking out your ass
it's been said, written and repeated that kunos is 100% against microtransactions. "oh they're full of shit all devs are the same", try to think of kunos as the Fromsoftware of racing games. they dont lie and they will deliver
@@yurilopes420 honestly I wouldnt mind a crate system like cs
@@yurilopes420 yea the only thing that will be a paid one is the mods, either tracks or cars (mostly cars) so no wonder if there will be some sort of protest from the players bcs a lot of mods will be a paid mods unlike the old AC, and tbf im not gonna be surprised if the old AC will have more players than AC evo bcs of this
@@Kpaxlol loot boxes are gateways to cancerous systems like EA
Does the lighting in EVO look weird to anyone else? The color grading already looks too much like ACC for my taste, but that aside, the brightness in a lot of scenes looks kind of wonky. That final shot of the Alpine at the end of the video perfectly sums up what I'm talking about. It looks really washed out.
Matter of taste, but personally, overall from what I've seen, I think this is the best looking sim yet. Real life sometimes looks washed out, depending on conditions. Maybe there will be tweaks to those things, AC1 had plenty of post processing and other visual tweaks. This is just pre-alpha. But to me it already looks pretty great
yall are weird
its like a pre alpha. it's like a vertical slice of the game. shows a bunch of stuff, but just a bit of most of it
graphics are most likely not final. and there will for sure be adjustments
you're suffering from nothing, relax its ok
Please please open wheels cars😢
In the trailer they had some open wheel cars
For me as a PC sim racer, triple screen support should be a day one priority. I run three 27" monitors, and with either just the middle monitor available, or a horrible stretched effect like in WRC, it would not be worth it. I would hope with the experience Kunos have they understood a large portion of their customer base run triples. I have a lot of enthusiasm for Evo, and think it could be epic
Im almost sure i heard it would have VR and tripple screen support at launch.
BTW... If you use tripple screen, do you only get 1/3 of the framerate, or how badly does it affect your fps? I got a 4080 Super, and only need to get one more monitor to get a tripple screen setup, but i cant stand framerates below 120fps, so im not sure if it is worth it.
@@EspenFrafalne I did also read it has triples at launch, but it was a bit vague in this interview and they kind of glossed over it. Triples were definitely not shown in action at the expo. Which means its not set up for it yet. They have claimed it optimised for VR though, which is excellent news as I run a Crystal Light. Triples for me did drop the frame rate a bit, but not too much mate. I still get about 200 FPS, and previous to that was hitting a steady 240. They are 27" 1440p 0.03ms 240hz Oleds, so possibly a bit easier on the CPU and GPU than IPS or VA panels. Which has to be factored in. Depending on the rest of your set up and game settings, you should achieve over 120fps, that's absolutely doable. If you ever need help with your fov btw, you tube trauma team, the guy is a fov genius. 👍
@@exponentialbet6292 Expos and E-sports events tend to use curved 32:9 monitors instead of triple screen setups. I guess because it gives it a cleaner and more seamless look, while a triple monitor setup gives a more "improvised" impression.
Id probably prefer a 32:9 monitor if i could find a nice curved one at a reasonable price, but the best compromize between quality and cost, has a prohibitive pricetag of 2000 dollars where i live (its probably 30% cheaper in the US). Maybe one day/year - during a black friday event 😏
Between this and MFSF 2024, I’m getting such a nerd boner.
Miss features, I'm fans of GT7 want move to EVO because console performance are bad
10. Scape photo mode
Come on guys... You're not thinking... They WILL use this engine in the near future for ACC 2...and that will be epic.
Acc 2 ? What are you saying 😂 probably never get out
@@michelepalermo5739 Why not, they have their own graphics and physics engine now! It wouldnt even take that long, most of the work is done.
Why wouldn't they just release a GT3/4 DLC in ACE? ACE doesn't seem to lack any features of ACC.
Just join GT3 lobbies & leagues, why would it need a separate client.
@@Anonnymouse53 same reason ACC exists outside of AC... Separation from the weed smoking drifters... Also it's a revenue stream and licensing issues.
@@philclarke7712 "most of the work is done" man tell me you've never worked without telling me. you're the same as those rocket league players who would go "bro whats taking so long, just easily *port the entire game to unreal engine and release rocket league 2* , so easy, just do it"
its not that easy
5 tracks😢
FREE ROAM, LETS FCKN GOOOO!!!!
EEEVOOO! not EVO xD LOL no matter how much they want us to say EVO I will never be able to do it.... and it sounds weird when said like that if not spoken in Italian!!! And this combo of German speaking Englisch and putting in Italian words is just killer :D
Just take my money.
