Automobilista 2 October 2022 Development Update

The hype is gone. It will be... just fine.

 

The mere prospect of 1971 Nürburgring makes the waiting worth it for me

 

I think it was posted yesterday but the forum cannot process the awesomeness

 

Maybe the update will be even better after many beers!

 

Too drunk to complain

 

Exactly. Talk is one thing, having it work right is what it’s about

 

Ball juice

 

Well, I bought Dirt Rally while waiting for this Ficken update,
God I suck at rally driving...

 

Practice for the Adrenaline pack. You have enough time before the dev update

 

Everybody does when they start out, you'll get used to it. Just focus on the notes, dial back your speed a bit, and practice. Soon enough you'll get into that "flow" where everything clicks mentally.

 

Try to get used to not flooring the gas pedal, very seldom you can go flat out in rally, that's key to create consistency and avoid crashes.

 

Just remembered something, a guy said they usually release the dev update after 18:00 local Reiza time.

 

Maybe not specifically avoiding full throttle (if your driving a RWD car, yes, AWD or FWD, no), more of dialing back to 7/10ths. Rally stages are more complicated and have less room for error. Sometimes you don't know how much a corner tightens over a crest or jump. Rallying is more similar to endurance racing than Grand Prix sprints. Mistakes will damage the car and set you back more than gaining a few tenths in a corner.

It'll definitely teach you about how cars grip up in dips and lighten over crests or elevation. Also, half your counter-steer over jumps, the car will get a sudden burst of front grip on landing. I've had to relearn this recently after spending time away from rallying and rallycross sims.

 

Well, take your time. If you can deliver it today that's nice. If not, no shame. As long as quality is at higher priority, I'm okay with that.

Merry Christmas Simioni, the Reiza team and all the forum friends.

 

Merry Christmas everybody! May you joyfully race around the Christmas Tree

The issues with the AI are way deeper than any setting and custom files can fix.

Stopping the car at the apex and darting away like rockets have nothing to do with that, as far as my experience with AMS2 AI has shown. All the feedback on the AI can be found at both AI feedback threads.

 

I didn't say it heh
