Featured Automobilista 2 V1.6.9 RELEASED!

I know everyone here hates GT3s and rightfully so, but I just tried the amg at mosport and I can say without a doubt it's one of the best feeling GT3s in sim racing now.

Maybe this gets said every patch but these changes are a huge step forward especially for a class that everyone judges sims by these days.

 

Yes

 

Big thanks Reiza for this. And Earnhardt's #3 livery on the Gen 2 Stock Car is pure glory to see!

 

The AI is a monster now. Holy… this is so fun to drive. The upcoming Career Mode will be fire!

the only thing which is missing are modern lower powered open wheelers. Maybe until next christmas we will get them also!

 

Yes, the same thing happened to me or worse, I couldn't turn the steering wheel anymore, it was completely stuck. I had to delete something from my profile in the folder and now it works, but I lost all the button settings.

 

Hi, there is couple of things, that i discovered and spoke about them on Steam.

"Great update, but I don't know if its just me, but my HUD is completely messed up, everything out of place, the race time/laps, position/position in class all show 99. The brakes in the hud are grey without any color indication of temps. And for some reason the pressure in the hud says PSI but the values are in bars. Hopefully can be fixed quickly with some hot fix, or maybe it is just me. Otherwise great job once again Reiza!

EDIT: And another thing, inside lines at Daytona bug through the car, atleast in replay mode. If it helps I have screenshots of all the issues I've listed."

Plus I discovered that the brake temps are stuck at showing 238 and the lap times do not show in the HUD for me it is at the bottom left corner.
So here are the screenshot, thought it might help.

 

Again, a big heartfelt Bravo and Thank You to Reiza for another great update in the right direction!
The loss in rear grip under acceleration is now much more subtle and you can feel more of "micro slides", that is a short slide followed by a sudden regain of grip (and if you are not careful power understeer) which gives the weight transfer and easing from trail braking into acceleration much more importance. It also feels very natural through FFB. This is particularly noticeable in GT3s.
Also, as far as I could test already, the MC12 has lost its annoying tendency to non-recoverable snap oversteering and is now much better controllable especially under trailbraking. This might turn my love-hate with this monster of a car into full-blown bliss...

 

Amazing update!
There seems to have been a conscient effort to try to avoid the MSAA/TAA alpha/transparency issue with all the newly released cars in this update which is great . Hopefully all the other cars being affected can be retro-actively worked on (unless the rendering engine can be "fixed" obviously, but having the windshield banners/decals be fully opaque could do the trick IMO).

 

Thanks for the update, excited for this as always.
Just had a quick go so not sure if this is repeatable.
Stock Car USA Gen 3 at Daytona Oval, the car in front of me seemed to dig into the track and then get launched as if it had hit a bad bit of geometry. This was in the top lane by the Lexus advert.
I ran it back and forward in the replay at the slowest speed and the front left corner just seemed to dig into the ground and that was it.

 

Why can't I find the supercars part 2 dlc anywhere, is tgat coming later?

 

It will likely be sorted when the "try the new content for free" period ends.

 

What's happening with the in-car Display Pages in these new cars? (Motec LCD bind) They did such a good job with the Corvette Z06 and since then I always looked forward to new car releases with different display screens. The MC20 just turns off the screens which I understand is a real feature, but can we please at least get lap timer displays for the new supercars in the future? I understand it probably won't be a priority, but these little details are always welcoming.

 

I love the Le Mans Stock Car USA, amazing fun, i just wish we had more than 2 livery slots, would be good fun for a series of races, but 2 livery slots just puts me off it.

 

Has anyone noticed a frame rate drop since the update? I was at around 110 fps but now I can't get above 40. Other than that, I love the update! This is my first time posting and I've been playing AMS2 since early access. It's my favorite sim no question.

 

They have more grip, or they feel like they have more grip? Are you able to directly compare any lap times between the two sims to see?

Did you check your in-game graphics settings? There are some new options and it also seems as though some things have been reset in the update, which requires us to check and set again.

 

Well can't currently race in AMS2 atm cause sick, but it was nice to at least test run the new content. I like Gen2 and Gen3 stock cars fairly well. Also very fond of the Dodge Viper. Also I like having the Pocono Raceway track with multiple layouts, my state is finally represented in AMS2

 

How dare you giving me half of the new content as part of the other dlcs I already own?!
I specifically request to buy all of it!


Team Reiza, you are the most deserved in the industry Thank you for all of that goodness.
