The track is also unusual in that it is built on a plateau, and is very flat. The track is characterized by its long Mistral straight (1.8 km, 1.1 mi) and elongated track design. ![]() Ricard wanted to experience the challenge of building a racetrack. The Circuit Paul Ricard is a motorsport race track built in 1969 at Le Castellet, near Marseille, in France, with finance from the eccentric pastis magnate Paul Ricard. The car also saw success in championships around the world, with wins in the VLN, Italian GT Championship, and Super GT Championship. The M6 GT3 showed its success on its debut year in 2016 when Rowe Racing clinched overall victory at the 2016 Spa 24 Hours with BMW works drivers Philipp Eng, Maxime Martin, and Alexander Sims at the wheel. In May 2015, at Dingolfing, BMW works driver Jörg Müller drove the M6 GT3 on its first roll-out to contribute a milestone to its development, and later the M6 GT3 was revealed near the end of the year. The engine only faced some modifications for use in motorsport. Unlike the Z4 GT3, which used an engine derived from the BMW M3, the engine of the M6 GT3 was virtually unchanged from that of the production model of the M6 (and the BMW M5). Emphasis was placed on safety with BMW Motorsport producing an "FIA-approved safety cell in accordance with the very latest safety standards". ![]() Throughout the year, the factory engineered the M6 to match FIA GT3 specifications. The BMW M6 GT3 might be one of the most anticipated cars in ACC, and, just like the Bentley Continental GT3, a completely new entry in the Assetto Corsa universe it competes in both the Sprint and Endurance Cup of the European Blancpain GT Series, and secured victory at the 2018 Edition of the prestigious Spa-Francorchamps 24H race.Īround the start of 2015, BMW Motorsport began developing a replacement for the successful BMW Z4 GT3 which already had been in action since 2010, where they selected the M6 as the base model. This first multiplayer iteration is needed by us to heavy-test our network systems and get the more data we can to fine tune it while gradually including all the Online Multiplayer features expected in the final version, such as: matchmaking, rating, private servers, broadcasting/spectator mode and all the details needed to achieve the best Multiplayer experience that we’ve ever made”. “However, we worked night and day to provide you a first bite of what you can expect from our multiplayer mode in the next months succeeding in the implementation of a very basic multiplayer aspect that will allow gamers to join practice sessions on the 3 circuits currently available. During development process we had to face some unforeseen issues that slowed our workflow and prevented us to finalize all the multiplayer features expected for this release update, at the point that we took in consideration the possibility to discard completely multiplayer from this build…this is definitely one of the risks of any Early Access Program”– says Marco Massarutto, Co-Founder, Brand & Product Executive Manager at KUNOS. ![]() The Assetto Corsa Competizione Online Multiplayer is one of the most difficult aspects for our team because developing it on Unreal Engine 4 by aiming for an equal-to-better quality than what we had in Assetto Corsa has been a completely new challenge for us. “We are glad to open our ‘online multiplayer doors’, giving a very first taste of it to our core Community, that is constantly helping us during this Early Access program. Full functionalities of the Multiplayer mode will be implemented in the final version of Assetto Corsa Competizione (1.0) - which will debut in Q1 2019. Therefore, this build introduced a very basic multiplayer mode that will allow gamers to join practice sessions on the 3 circuits currently available: Nurburgring GP, Misano World Circuit, and Circuit Paul Ricard, but of course further updates will follow in next months. ![]() With this release, the online functionalities are in a first deployment state, this means that although the network development is regularly proceeding, the development team will use this Early Access mass test window to enforce the feedback on the Online Systems supporting AC Competizione’s netcode and will gradually introduce all the features that will need testing. The other nice stuff: Paul Ricard Circuit (Le Castellet - FR) and the new BMW M6 GT3, together with Endurance game mode and a more complex pit-stop system. The most important addition: the basic Multiplayer capabilities. As per the roadmap, Release 3 of the ACC Early Access Program went live on November 14th. And before we fall behind again, let's add this old news.
