Nurburgring?

Will this iconic track be in the game? It should be.

The GP layout.

That's slightly disappointing. I was hoping for the full 12 mile circuit.

I'm pretty sure modders will add Nordschleife layout too

Ah that's true good point!

[P-eLko]

Yes, there will be versions from modders or converts from other games. But I am sure that Nordschleife will be also official track in future.

If there's one DLC track i'd pay for, that's the one.

I don't think. Remember they use only circuit with laserscan, so i think scanning all 12 mile cost so much!!

It's not that, it's because nords is in crisis right now and no one owns it or it's in the middle of changing ownership and they can't get a licence to use it...

I dont think it is paid by mileage. They will pay only one day rent of laser scan device.
And also I think that when they was in Nurburgring, they also took Nordschleife, but they will release it later :-)

//Oh... thats make a sense

How can you say you are sure?

You're forgetting that they'd also have to hire exclusive access of the track for however many days/weeks it'd take to scan. [using iRacing production stats - they also laser scan] It takes ten people roughly six months to scan, model and texture a 2.2 mile track track. Ignoring the fact that the entire Assetto Corsa team isn't much larger than ten people across the board, it would take THREE YEARS of non-stop work to make the track "officially" and costs would be through the roof (you'd be looking at $35-60~ DLC to cover the costs).

Nordschleife has not been scanned by the AC team and it won't ever be.

I wonder if they could have access to pre-scanned data for a price.

six MONTHS for one track? Where did you read that? IMO this is HUGE nonsens.
For example, few months ago Kunos laserscanned Spa francorchamps, and also Spa francorchamps classic route. Modern SPA is long 7 kilometers, Old route is long more than 14 kilometers. Thats 21 kilometers combined what is circa the same as Nordschleife.

And besides SPA tracks, in AC 1.0 version will be Nurburgring, Imola, Magione, Monza, Monza 1966, Monza 1966 longer variant, Three versions of Silverstone, Vallelunga and few test tracks.

Thats something like 72kilometers of laserscanning, so you think they make it 10 years?

[Wohin genau]

Guess those six month is meant to be the timeline a single developer needs. So if there is team of three devs working on it, it should stilll take two month more or less.

I ask myself if they could not buy the scanned data from other studios?
