Radio Silence from Reiza for months...

Maybe some day Renato opens it up to a few more. It’s up to him. I think he wants to respect the Campaign Backers but I think that if he did a poll asking us backers if we are open to accept Early Access folks or active forum members that we would probably be in the majority saying yes. But as I said, not our choice

 

Its a shame that some of those beta posts can't be posted to the main Forum. No extra time required to write but it keeps us in the loop

 

If (As suggested) the throttle mapping issue is being looked into, then I'm actually looking forward to the coming update(s) no matter how long they take, because I think looking into and improving that will be a big step forward.
It may? induce some cars needing tweaks to compensate initially, but in the long run it should hopefully massively improve the 'realism' and 'accuracy' of the sim as a whole, right across the full range of cars.

 

I bought AMS2 + season pass in the last Steam Summer sale, I knew I wasn't going to get access to the AMS2 beta but if at some point things change I'd be interested in playing the beta, especially for testing Xbox 360 controller settings. I bought AMS1 + season pass a few years back and even bought GSCE after buying AMS1 as a way to support Reiza .

 

I'd be interested in access to the BETA forum section(s), I bought the full season pass on day one of release @£100 IIRC, but I knew at the time I was slightly too late to the party unfortunately.

You do have the backer image on your profile there, do you not currently have access?

 

Good stuff, as I thought regards the first point, and as I'd hoped regards the second. Will be interesting to see the effects.

 

I have access to the beta forum but not the AMS2 beta. I had the option to buy AMS2 + season pass during early access but I chose to wait to see what content the game would have, new features, etc.

 

Ah, my misunderstanding @FS7 I blame 4am.

 

How many people are buying the game and refunding before the hour is up... All because the handling feels off due to faulty throttle in all/most of the cars. Should have been a hotfix this throttle bug. Reiza don't do themselves any favours sometimes.

 

I'm just sitting here waiting for that epic-looking McLaren 1988 and 1991 content teased in the original trailers.

 

I wouldn't worry. It doesn't affect it that much across the car library. Some cars have it bad for sure. And it has been like this for months.

Chances are half of the people actually prefer lower throttle input sensitivity too. From what I understand the fix itself only mends that weird gap in low revs/torque that doesn't drastically affect all cars anyway. If someone prefers to have the throttle curve low end biased then manually set lower sensitivity makes the bigger impact.

EDIT: No new post, cause I don't want to disturb the topic anymore. Don’t get me wrong, I am still excited to see how the throttle update changes details since it's a more technical/simulation level change and not just a curve tweak .

 

Thanks Fizzy this was the post that I referred to earlier posted then edited out, here in main. In the opening quote is clearly says 'share' so imo should have been here in main at the time. + no then "months of silence"

Agreed. However.

We are also a long time between information at times, but come to expect it, just because of the extra 'polishing' that now takes place ( and because of complaints about lack of polish) as opposed to a year ago. imo

For those that ran on default 'throttle sensitivity' the change will be noticed for the better and to a larger degree.
If on main and already ran a lower setting the change may be less apparent.

as . ans above

Exactly/agreed.

sidenote
'beta' no beta, there are on a monthly basis, posts/arguments that turn 'toxic' here and even again last 2 days in Beta 'toxic' mainly due to choice of words and also not retracing thread post to the origin of issue.and trying to replicate.... sad to see. and no help in the end when it turns to 2-3 pages of bickering.
Many beta testers take onboard post in main and test the findings and reports esp @CrimsonEminence and others.
Never nice to see in Beta or here ."Im out" ... from somebody for whatever the reason.
The Sims is massive with such variety of vehicle /tracks and is always 'on the whole' going forward. next update to main should brighten a lot of faces.
Looking forward to a nice weekend. Have a nice one.

 

This. This right here.
