Sure thing, let’s dive into this! So, Assetto Corsa EVO decided to jump into the scene earlier this year with some early access stuff — but man, it kind of flopped at first, especially if you were trying to get all VR with it. Optimization? Not their strong suit at launch. Anyway, I got caught up in checking out the latest update, 0.2 — wait, was it supposed to be a secret recipe or something? Honestly, I couldn’t tell. But hey, now they’ve added some new rides that are worth mentioning.
Picture this: roaring down the track in a Maserati GT2 or maybe feeling the vibe in a Lotus Exige V6 Cup. Oh, and if you’re a fan of classics, they’ve thrown in an Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA, among others. Mind kind of wandered to the smell of petrol and, I don’t know why but, the sound of engines popping, just is… magical? Yeah, I’m weird like that.
Okay, so back to it. They’ve got these fresh tracks too — Circuit of the Americas and Donington Park. Ever driven there? I can’t even skateboard straight, but imagining it is something else. And about those game modes: Open Mode lets you mess around with any car, while Career Mode? Well, it kinda teases you with progression. Fancy!
Here’s the kicker — VR just stepped up. They labeled it “step two”… I laughed because I pictured someone hopping. But yep, for VR fans, it’s a bit of relief. Mirrors now do this “dynamic” thing, better reflections — all of it adding something.
Another tidbit, switching between VR and triple screens doesn’t kill the DLSS now! Techy mumbo jumbo, but important if you’re like that avid gamer neighbor of mine who speaks in acronyms half the time.
I saw some before and after shots somewhere, probably another tab I closed. But yeah, look it up if you’re into seeing visual upgrades.
And six updates lined up before the big 1.0 drop in 2025? It’s like waiting for a movie sequel you hear about forever. Not that I’ve got insider info, but fingers crossed things get even smoother. Will it be worth the $32 bucks? Maybe if you’re deep into VR. Me? I’m still pondering it like it’s an expensive meal I might risk not finishing.
There’s a roadmap pic floating around too, from KUNOS Simulazioni themselves. The journey’s half the fun, right?
