Any chance of getting some classic FIA GT cars in ACC at some point?

 

[bgil66]

Marco- How does it feel to drive a 911?
Paul- Do you close your eyes when you pick out shirts?
Chris- What is your greatest guitar riff?
Anthony- What was the first question that Marco asked you?

 

[john35]

Kunos, what about TC America(TCR) you planing add this car-class to ACC in the future, because this also applies to SRO and you must be licensed for this?

 

[maranello78]

It could be any chance to release fía Gt3 legends like Ferrari 430, Aston Martin Drs9, Ferrari 458, Morgan plus 8 Gt3..etc?
You'll get my money with these dlc

 

[Balwerk]

Anthony, is there some change GTWC Asia or America license will be appear in ACC? well maybe some supporting race too?

Marco, dunno bit tricky to ask but what's current state of custom skins in ACC? is that legal or not?

Chris, your favorite track and car combination when racing in ACC?

 

[Nigel Mansell]

Marco, is there any glimmer of hope to see Assetto Corsa 2 released in future, based on all you've learned via the SRO partnerships, and possibly including the UE technology as a base again?

 

[Tony 93]

Chris Hayes makes the best sim videos out there so easy to understand

It's up to the community to build the tool, but Kunos are in control of the API.

 

[Isaac Chavira]

Kunos: GT4, when will we be graced with it's glory?

 

[Brownninja97]

For Marco: what has been the differences between licensing various cars for dlc that we used to see in AC1 vs ACC where packs currently are based on an entire series. Is it easier negotiating for a series or with various manufactures for their cars.

For everyone: What SRO series and season would you like to replicate in ACC? Also how many sheep do I have to sacrifice for BPR to be licensed?

 

[eg01st]

Kunos - What does a completed ACC look like to you? What would be the final product content wise? Is there a parallel universe where ACC with GT1 and GT2 exists as DLC?

 

[Rodger Davies]

Question for Anthony: if you could add any event (circuit) to the IGTC calendar, which would it be?

 

[Jules Porter]

Kunos: A question I feel most of us would have.
When are you going to fix the constant issues that plague multiplayer?
May 29th Acc was free for the weekend so I jumped in to have a look, Being impressed and recall having no issues everything working as intended so I made the purchase.
Since then (June 1st) however, driver profile rating/stats simply are not loading or recording anything I am doing. it is currently incapable of recording the basics like my lap times so much so I am resorting to pen and paper to track my laps.
The laps that have recorded and show up when they want to are the ones set from that free weekend.
From what I have gathered people on your forums have had these issues for much longer.

Did you boost the servers over the free period in the hope to bring more people inane drop them back to save resources after it?

For a title that advertises "Advance Multiplayer Functionality" is straight-up false advertising as it simply doesn't work and incapable of keeping track of something simply like personal lap times.
For a comparative sim, these are the issues that should be a high priority to get stable before an official release and long before considering opening the doors to other platforms such as the release on consoles.

Being smug about it and saying "you don't pay a subscription so you have to expect bugs!" is lazy development and greed.
many other sim titles and games for that matter manage quite fine without such a subscription.
Live for Speed has 3 developers and still able to pull up every lap time, even times set from 10+ years ago on LFS World.
So what is going on here?

If you want more money (I'm sure you do) then the best way is to provide a better service then your competitors. That's basic business.
But at this moment in time, most of us are not getting what we originally paid for. So why would spend more?

 

[Cheesenium]

Will there be the new GT2 or the classic GT1 in the game? Will there be multiclass racing?

is there a chance for a new AC that is similar to AC1?

 

[Dr.Jones]

Marco Massarutto : Hello Marco!

We will have the Mercedes AMG GT3 EVO/2020 in the game (ACC)?

Thanks for your time!

 

[ricardokilbr]

I wonder if kunos has plans or thought about a next project to do something about American category like Nascar and Indy? for the ability of Kunos staff would be fantastic !!

 

[randomcallsign]

As ACC has the SRO branding, will Kunos try to bring the TCRs into ACC?
