better than gt7?

Generally speaking, yes. But if you buy this on sale, when you can get all the content for about 8 USD, you'd see it's hard to argue against.

Though, I'd argue it's got more value even at full price. But I am lazy and have no interest in explaining all that.

The thing is, you really want a wheel. If you are a controller user, YMMV. Some controller users find a way. It is possible. But GT7 is probably better for those users. But GT7 isn't a PC title, so it's not even a real option for many.

i say cus i already play GT7, i do play on a controller and i have had no real issues with it, i would assume that both have similar driving physics

No AC is a sim, GT7 is more of a simcade

No, there is a big difference. Gt7 is more like an action game where a controller is fine. In AC you recognize the controller people by how they always crash in one of the first 5 corners, and cars without ABS/TC are like hardly driveable with a contoller... unless you rly good with it.

Also, I personally am of the opinion that good pedals give you more mileage than a wheel if you have neither.
The super duper high tier force feedback given from high end wheels means very little if you don't have (good) pedals, meanwhile, force feedback is just a signal of the terrain anyway.
Theoretically, if you somehow managed to drive in a way that is optimal without needing to feel the curb rattling you first, then not only would the FFB be less important, but you'd still need the pedals to fine tune your speed and braking anyway.

Or another way around, let's say you have wheel and good FFB in it, but no pedals to work with the cues given to you.
Not that useful to have FFB then.

Thus, if you have neither peripheral, you will have the best yield in performance with pedals, imho.
Steering is less tricky than velocity, and thus mass control.

But I don't have any scientific argument or anything, this is just my logical reasoning.

Edit:
I don't want to imply that control is pointless, but I do think that controllers cover the average motion range well enough.
They'll be a bit inferior if you spin out and have to really do hardcore turns, including 180+, but for normal racing? Yeah, pedals give you more control, I'd say.

As others mentioned, I can't even compare AC to games like GT8 or Forza Motorsport. The latter are simcades whereas AC is a full on sim of the highest caliber.

If I had to choose one of the above to enjoy with a gamepad, I'd choose FM. If I had a wheel and pedals and a proper sim rig, AC all the way.

If you're good at modding, I would suggest a couple of good ones that I like to use. One is for gamepads called "ConsoleFX". The other is for the chase camera called "BACC - Forza Horizon". I think these two mods in particular make Assetto Corsa feel just as good as GT7 and Forza when played with a gamepad.

Helllllllll yes!

[Yeyo]

Gt7 is arcade at best. Assetto is a sim paradise !

> ARMA better than Call of Duty?

Same difference here, they're not really directly comparable.

as i can see by most commenters here, none of these people actually bothered to play GT7 with a decent wheel setup.
GT7 is arcade like and easy to play on a controller sure, but once you use a wheel, all the background assists come right off.
it is a simulation through and through, and it's an amazing experience with a wheel.

Assetto Corsa has alot of mods, but in their purest form, GT7 obliterates AC, even Competizione.
visuals, sound design, as well as contentwise, GT7 is the better sim racer.

(if you have a wheel)

i would argue that AC is unplayable on a gamepad though.


i tested both games on Logitech G23 and G Pro DD Wheel, GT7 with PSVR2.

Bruh I've played GT7 with a wheel and there is NO WAY it "obliterates AC", not even close. You'd have to be insane to argue that GT7 is a pure sim, because it simply isn't, even with a wheel.

and AC is more of a sim at what point in time, exactly?
which mods do you need to put in there to make it more sim-like?

because out of the box, it's not any more realistic than GT7.
