AC vs Forza 6

[Bally]

I've been playing Forza Motorsport 6 on my Xbox One and I was wondering what features AC and F6 have in common (and which one does them better). AC is still being supported while support for F6 was dropped after Horizon 3 was released.

I know some cars and tracks are in both games, but what about customization (car colors, paint finishes, bumper/wing/roll cage designs, decals) or weather/time?

[SeriousSpy]

No customization, this is a racing sim, not a car collecting simcade like Forza.

Decals can be added via skins, which can be edited using any software like Photoshop or Paint.NET.

There is a basic time system, though only from 9 till 5 or so, no weather apart from clear/cloudy.

This game is more realistic than Forza 6. I love the Forza series, but they are far from realistic IMO. This game is better in every aspect, if you take time to learn it.

No comparsion, really.
Forza is a great game to battle online with your buddies, complete championships to earn your way to that car you want to buy, mod a car exactly how you like and kick back with a controller.

AC I don't like playing with the controller; always bust out the wheel for it, but to simply have the on-track experience of a very realistic (though not perfect, as no sim is 100% everywhere) - it keeps me coming back, and back, and back.
If simply choosing from all the cars and tracks to hotlap, drift, practice, race a.i or online in one of the most authentic racing games sounds like something you won't get bored of, pull the trigger.

The game doesn't have night racing, rain, safety cars, caution laps, formation laps or very in-depth damage but everything else to do with a car on a track is greatly done.

only good thing in forza are triggers "force feedback" and nice grafics. but its far away from sim racing. tires are lubricated with soap. its desent game yeh, mayby good if i never tried AC :P

Forza is a racing game, Asetto Corsa is a simulator.

There are plenty of good things about Forza, it's not designed to be a sim, so it doesn't fail at being a sim. It is what it is, and what it is, is ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ awesome.

its simple assetto corsa is like x plane ... and forza is like ace combat :D so ye sry no cruise missiles to tune your 737 ;D

[Mr Crisp]

Forza 6 and Assetto Corsa hve in common cars and tracks- thats about it.

AC has far superior wheel and pedal support, physics, laser-scanned accurate tracks, the Porsche licence, mods and is still having features added and improvements such as tyre model, brake temps etc.

Forza 6 and AC are no comparison IMO. If you like Forza 6 for all its eye-candy and tuning, you'll probably not enjoy AC with its `sterile` simulated racing.

Forza: great selection of models, well known tuning system (same since FM3), best in class gamepad steering, best 3rd view, great photo mode, in game livery editor.

Assetto: phenomenal wheel FFB, great physics, great selection of cars (every has different handling), laser scanned tracks, most of the racing features (falstart, full pit stop, fuel usage, advanced tire physics with blistering, graining, flat spots etc, flag rules, penalty system)

As @SeriuosSam said:
"racing sim, vs car collecting simcade "

Both can be entertaining, Forza is great for begginers, AC full virtual racing experience.

If you love Cars, Forza is very good.
If you love Racing, Assetto Corsa should be your choice.

Forza 6 definitely is a very highly polished game , AC has less bells and whistles , but has much more depth to the Racing and for sure the AI are much tougher to beat , AI in Forza is probably slightly better in terms of presentation and attention to detail , but AC is just a dream to drive much more realistic but I would say Forza delivers a better sense of speed and excitment.

If your a Racing Fan AC is a must buy, if you have a nice PC I would say buy it on PC over console, I personally have both games, both do a lot of things really well and are great games.

If I had to choose, that would be a difficult choice, AC runs like a charm on PC @ 5760x1080 (Triples) so I think I would say buy AC you won't regret it.. especially if you already have a wheel.

FORZA 6 =10/10
ASSETTO CORSA = 10/10

Photo finish :P

I would also add that Forza 6 does a very good job of appealing to both sim racers and a more casual style of gameplay..turn off all assits and switch to to simulation mode + AI on Pro and Forza really is a sim experience, Assetto on the other hand definitely leans way more to pure simulation.

How does it control on an Xbox One controller? I don't have a racing wheel, even though that would be optimal.

[Bob]

Honestly , it can be done but you will have a lot more fun playing with a wheel..

[Bob]

Get a wheel .. you won't regret that either , best choice for you if you on Xbone is G920 works on PC too , I have one and with Forza 6 it is fantastic.. ask Santa maybe ? lol GL have fun :D
