Automobilista 2 V1.5 Physics Development Update

How can this difference be happening? Is it just the AI or are the TT times that quick?
Edit: 2022 was wet (I should’ve known since I was there)

 

I hardly ever drive this car, but I was curious to see what lap time I would get, given the debate going on. I did a 1:23.5 in my second lap, so basically the first after the out lap.

Now I'm by no means a fast driver, I consider myself barely average, at best. So from my experience it's still pretty easy to get a relatively fast lap time compared to real world results. Not posting to call 'skill issue', but maybe something else is going on? Maybe your previous setups no longer work? Your driving style needs a bit of a change since the update? Couldn't tell, but I have no problem with the lap times on my end.

 

proof of what Ai times? a good silverstone is low 1:25.000 and in sims i think you should go even lower high 1:25 isnt that good

 

Yeah my apologies i fixed the 22 quali by instead adding the dry 23 qualifying for a proper comparison. And it still works fine. AI seems to have proper good pace from what i have tested with the Ultimate 2 cars.

 

ultimate 2 had the physocs i dont know about that im talking about gen 1, V10 gen 2 and ultimate gen 1 because those didnt get the pre release physics

 

I already put it in the AI report thread, but look at how many times end on a 0, definetely something going on there.

 

Did you race Imola or Imola 2001? Imola 2001 has that annoying chicane at the end before the start/finish straight. Just curious.

 

imola 2001 with chicane old time was 1:23.000 pole is 1:23.054

 

but try formula reiza that sheit is the worst

 

Yeah, I was more asking Br1am who said he got 1:23.6 on his second lap and he never drives that car.

 

Good point, that should explain my decent looking lap time I guess
I'll go back to being barely average, at best.

 

oh boy I am going to second that

just spent 1hr in VR with that car at Curitiba, pure awesomeness

 

You started out constructive, but what exactly is that kind of criticism supposed to achieve? Especially writing four posts without reply with this?

Yes the F-Reiza is too slow in quali trim. In race trim it hits pretty exactly the times it did in real life. Does AC do both, cause I very much doubt it?

Is AC therefore an unrealistic arcade superspeed simulator or is there maybe a bit more nuance to this?


@everyone Using AI times to judge speed accuracy is bull**** though. 3 seconds off the pace is also a bit much, but I'll try myself to see what I can get out of it.

 

This thread is pretty insane even for our standards. Letting one dude hijack an entire forum because he is unhappy with HIS times compared to real world times is a bit nutty. I think we get it at this point and I am sure Reiza will look into it when they get a chance because unlike most sims, Reiza actually listens to feedback and make changes when they think necessary. Either stop trolling or kindly leave

 

ask anyone ac is most realistic sim try the feeling ams not even close

 

Then go play AC and leave!

 

Just a reminder, access to a certain forum tool is available.

 

Yes but that is less entertaining

 

Just use the ignore function

 

We can compare many features of the sim wrt real life but lap times in a vacuum is just pointless. Just from the top of my mind, my record lap at race pace in Watkins Glen in iRacing is a bit faster than Austin Hill's 2021 pole record. I'm a mediocre simracer.

It is so pointless... We are not even racing in the same surface (no matter how much high quality LIDAR data is used, the data is a concrete photo of a moment in history, surface keeps evolving..). We are not using the same tyres (no matter how good the simulation is), etc.
