Automobilista 2 V1.3.6.2 Officially RELEASED

And on ACC.

 

Please, check gear ratios at least of GT3 and GTE cars, with some car you can change values and other not, if by regulations in GT3 is not possible to change gear ratios, disable option and check the inconsistency between cars of same class

 

I checked and it already was on "units".

Upon checking the suspension screenshot after having changed the setting to units and back, there are also no differences to my current setup, so the provided screenshot should be correct.

 

Multiplayer is dead now. I hope Reiza will do something to push it in the near future...

 

i vote for the name change... formula 67, formula 75..etc

 

Wrong. It is much more alive than it has ever been, but I agree AMS2 still strongly needs MP attention.

Third-party scheduled races systems out there are great, but still not popular, unfortunately. An entry on the main menu of AMS2 would greatly help them reach more users.

What has been pretty annoying lately is the sheer lack of common sense to the majority of the people racing the F-Ultimate Gen 2 online. The lack of punishment for bad on-track behaviour makes public lobbies for such car more like Mario Kart than anything else... no resemblance of a proper sim race at all.

 

I believe they don't mention the years on purpose just to be sure FOM keeps off their backs

 

I hope or wish that when AMS2 arrives at simracing-gp it will be more popular and decent MP races can be run, although it still lacks a lot due to the inconsistency of the setups in cars of the same class as I have commented above, in addition to adjusting the BOP in some categories.

And as I see that type of details are not among their short-term objectives, they continue to improve the physical model of the different components, which is great and releasing new content. I would like to see more updates like these last ones improving, solving and updating things of the existing content, but there are a lot of pressure for the content to arrive and they have to meet dates and promises to season pass buyers.

In my case, I have the season pass but I prefer quality to unpolished content.
Whatever you do, great job Reiza, keep it up! it's my favorite racing simulator and luckily it has a good AI haha

 

I think the F-Vintage Gen2 cars cover 1969-71. The Lotus was still entered in F1 in '71 and the Brabham was used for the Tasman Series that same year though with little success.

I have a little pet peeve regarding the '70s tracks; since we have a terrific '75 F1 grid, I'd really wish the tracks would represent that same year as well. If Spielberg, Interlagos, Imola, Hockenheim and Kyalami were set in the same year, you could have a credible mini-championship right there. Silverstone is perfect of course, and if you add chicanes to Monza this one is good to go as well.

I suppose this is my main gripe with AMS2 that some of the historic stuff is a little scattered.

1988 on the other hand is really, really awesome as there are loads of tracks for Classic Gen2 and Group C, and it's a fun year to drive.

 

Just to clarify; it's not like I'm totally OCD about minor anachronisms, I mean whenever I feel sudden bursts of anger or have a panic attack I just scream into my pillow and it will pass quickly. I've found that a cup of tea and some fresh air help as well, so no worries.

 

Does anyone know if the issue with having Manual Failures turned ON in multiplayer has been resolved with this update?

 

The one where engine temps are flying through the roof causing engines to blow oif you have it turned on.

This one

 

Great, thank you

 

Not fixed for karts.

Engines still overheat, regardless of setup or handling.

Edit: I think someone mentioned also that left (or right) rear brakes also overheat, but I'm not sure.

 

Fair enough.

Changing subject: please folks of MP, give it a go to the 70's Formula 1 cars. I've a feeling Reiza nailed them - look how Leclerc is massively struggling to handle Gilles Villeneuve's F312T:

Looks exactly what I experience with those amazing cars in AMS2, handling them on proper 70's/80's tracks is incredibly fun.

Unfortunately I don't think such cars receive their deserved attention from the multiplayer community.

 

I'd say the list is pretty accurate. I always thought one of the Classic Gen 2 cars looked a lot like the 1989-1990 Eurobrun car. The other is an Mp4-4 and I can't identify the 3rd.
