Any time you lose control of the back end of your vehicle, it’s almost impossible to control it controlled skids turn into spin-outs. Assetto Corsa Competizione’s out-of-car view is so rigidly fixed to the back of your vehicle that it feels like you’re physically attached to it, making it a stomach-churning affair. If you, like me, tend to favor the behind-car camera when playing with a controller, chances are you’ll hate that too. There’s no such luck with Competizione it feels like flipping a coin, especially if you decide to test more than one car. The same can be said for other sim-heavy racers like Project Cars 2, WRC8 and Dirt Rally 2.0, but each one of these allowed you to fiddle with easily understood settings that ultimately made them both playable and enjoyable with a controller, even if it took a lot of patience. There’s no two ways about it: Competizione is a poor experience with a pad. Even at its worst, it’s child’s play compared to playing Assetto Corsa Competizione with a controller.

You can’t remap pedals (horrific for G920 users who hate the stiff brake, like me) serious drivers essentially have to bind everything past the base controls the tweaks you have to play with aren’t very clear. Oh god how did this get here I am not good with computer Kunos SimulazioniĪttempting to refine your wheel settings is a real guessing game. Try loading up a new car into an existing team’s colors the outcomes are hilarious.

In any non-career mode, selecting a car, driver and color scheme is a barrage of impenetrable words and numbers that aren’t explained. When choosing your race type, you can’t just see all the options on one screen you have to cycle between modes using the shoulder buttons. On Xbox One, at least, you can only move around menus with the D-pad. Navigating them with a controller–or, worse yet, a steering wheel–makes for an utterly confounding experience.

From the very start, it’s clear that its menus haven’t been optimized for consoles in any way. An unrelenting user experienceĪfter half an hour of exploring its various modes and settings, you’d be forgiven for thinking that Assetto Corsa Competizione actively tries to annoy you.

At the time of writing, it’s still not fixed. Diving in and out of the game to check a message on my dashboard rendered my wheel’s inputs null and void, save for the Xbox button another unnecessarily complicated controller-led reboot was needed every time.

As frustrating as this was, it worked, but seriously: putting aside the fact my wheel was recommended, how can a racing simulator not properly support one of the most popular mid-range steering wheels on the market, then have to rely on players to find out how to remedy the issue after they’ve paid good money for it?Įven when it “worked”, it didn’t.
