Automobilista 2 V1.6, IMSA Track Pack, Endurance Pt2 & Lamborghini DLCs RELEASED (V1.6.3.4 Live Now)

It's not there yet despite what the changelog says.

 

Very helpful post. I'm sure your suggestions will be taken into account. Oh wait, you didn't have any.

 

Ok got it! Thanks!

 

Reiza Xmas came on November 29, 2024!

 

Same could be said about your leech comment. Why change it into something that is boring to look at? Looks like going back into time 20 years.

 

A well deserved one!

 

Well, it's also part of the racing (disturbing others), isn't it? We see that on real racing.
Racing is all about taking from others (the best racing line, their options, their focus, etc.) as much as it is to be a better driver.

The flashlights should be implemented and AI must be aware of them in overlaping situations.

ps - I never flashed anyone on track for that purpose, it's outside my moral sphere, but I understand why others try to win that way - it's my job to make them stop thinking that way

 

There will be vintage LeMans cars added to the game, probably around the same time as the vintage layout comes out (much like how Endurance pt 1 came out the same time as LeMans)

Though IF (and thats a big if) we get more content I'd bet my money on it being Racin USA part 4 (Pocono and Stock USA gen 1 were found in the files after 1.6 released) and Lamborghini Dream Pack part 2 (Lamborghini Miuira SV were found in the files after 1.6 as well)

 

That would certainly be an interesting addition for a potential historical Le Mans pack.

I had thought Pocono was Auto Club Speedway.

 

Nope! Pocono is a really cool track because it only has three turns and each one is based off of a different Indycar track!

Turn one is modeled after Trenton, turn two is modeled after Indy and turn three is modeled after Milwaukee!

 

And what does it mean for us who don’t have a good understanding of those circuits?

 

I did this, but there's wasnt a whole lot there. (I am not into changing setups)

I got a little better at driving them, tho. Still ended up backwards sometimes which basically any RWD car I tried. Guess an even lighter right foot is needed. it's certainly less easy to recover oversteer too (wasnt this a big discussion on iRacing a few years ago?). I dunno about realism, I am reminded of something Nigel Mansell said after trying some sim or game, 'if the real cars drove like that, we'd all be dead'.
Also, yes, I could change setups, but i don't want to have to, to be honest, as I am not fond of it, I just wanna driiiive!

Also 2: it seems the auto restart on the McLaren MP4/6 doesn't work? It's not a class or rule thing, the auto restart on the F-C G4-Benetton does work.

 

You mean 80s Paul Ricard? Yes! Can't wait

 

It means it is an interesting track (tri-oval) compared to most American repetitive ovals.

 

You're right! I confused it with Fontana (Auto Club Speedway). I know Milwaukee from the days of IndyCar Racing by Papyrus.

Wow! Back then I was 13 years old, and I was a wizard at driving with a PC keyboard

 

It is, I've raced it on iRacing I think. It was surprisingly challenging. Who knew three corners could be so tricky!

 

I’m not a big fan of Paul Ricard, but many of the game’s content would fit well with that track: F1, LMP2, GT3, GT4. France is one of the few European countries with only one circuit in AMS2, alongside Belgium and Portugal. That said, there are already so many tracks in AMS2 that it doesn’t feel like more are needed at the moment.

It would be interesting, however, if Reiza explored oval racing further, perhaps bringing some NASCAR content into the game.

 

It means you have to compromise on your setup. You really can't emphasize one corner over another. And of course, tracks change as races progress...

I forget what game had it b/c it was years ago but I was one the trickiest ovals I have ever played.

 

Players who have never done much oval racing don't understand the challenges and strategies needed to be successful, they just think it's press gas, turn left ..
