Tired of Assetto Corsa

[Jason Mullin]

How can I say this without sounding negative as AC modding was the reason I ditched consoles and bought a PC.
Anyone else feel like they've gotten what they can out of AC, and perhaps like me have become bored with it?

With the endless mods available there's no reason anyone should feel bored, but I do.
Perhaps I've played it too much, it just feels like it has run it's course and doesn't make me smile like a giddy child as it once did.
Am I alone here?

BTW ... you should see the roads here in in the hills of north Georgia ... and all 318 curves found in the eleven miles of the tail of the Dragon (LINK) isn't all that far away.

Yes I live in Chattanooga and will be headed to the dragon this weekend.
Hopefully the thunderstorms will go easy on us.

FAROUT ... a neighbor! I'm about one hour south of you. This here is sports car and motorcycle country For Sure!

Somehow the roundabouts at Milton Keynes unfortunately don't cut it.

Just a single bike!? Gosh, that must be boring. Surely you must need some variety to avoid real life becoming too 'arcade'.../s

Now ... now. No need to hold a grudge.

I usually got that after few laps ..nothing really wrong with the game .. just hard to get hooked like in some other sims

Woops

I am a RL kart racing driver, so playing sim is in some ways boring. In AC I got bored after few hours, but I don`t know from which reason I`m still hanging around after 4.500 hours driven Go figure

btw @Corsa1977 no one is forcing you to be around, you have 3 options now:
- quit with racing
- swap AC with some other sim
- keep on driving AC (most likely), specially now when ACC is around the corner, I think I will quit with RL racing then

I do apologize for creating a thread that could be seen as questionable, should the site staff feel it's unneeded, I completely understand

As long as it remains civil and within our ToS then there's no problem.
And there have been a lot worse threads, although hopefully you'll come back into the fold

Since you are posting this, you still care about AC and that means you've just burned out. Go get yourself some brake from it, maybe even simracing, for couple months. It will be more enjoyable when you return.

Personally, i took a year off simracing in ~2017, and now i have more fun and i'm somehow a little bit faster than before haha ( 5k+ hours in, and i'm playing mostly vanilla content too).

 

[Richard Dastardly]

I've been on enforced break for two years ( did a little last year but suffered too much ) - definitely going to be faster once my feet remember what they're meant to be doing, I think.

Burned out on GT3 already though Would love a little Ginetta Supercup online series, or GT4, or touring cars, or something. A professionally done touring car game with modern netcode & physics would make a small killing, I reckon.

Bought VR for sim racing and got distracted by other titles. I'm back after a couple of months off.

Once a sim racer, always a sim racer!

 

[Full_Ninja]

Unfortunately that is life now in our society, new buzz, new buzz, new buzz.

But the same old boredom always returns, quicker, quicker, quicker every time.

Perhaps the answer is in the statements from the first post

I've always found that people that get bored in life lack imagination. Once they learn to use their imagination they are no longer bored.

There's an old saying "a change is as good as a holiday" so maybe you just need some time doing a non racing activity, maybe dig out an old favorite shooter or something similar as a distraction.

Hope you find your AC mojo again soon.
