 Porsche pack review

Bearing in mind that Porsche, officially, in a simulator proper does not appear for twelve years, the agreement with Kunos Simulations could not be accepted with great enthusiasm; moreover, the sublime physical-dynamic model of Assetto Corsa and the ability of developers to give a soul to each medium reproduced, represent universally recognized qualities and a source of pride for the Italian videogame industry.

 

After a few months of waiting, on 25 October the dream of many virtual pilots took shape, with the launch on Steam of the first of the three planned porsche pack assetto corsa and the relative, advantageou sassetto corsa porsche season pas, which will arrive on PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in November.

 

As always, the DLC  forza 4 porsche pack  was accompanied by a major update of the code (now in build 1.9) that embraces several new features; among the main ones there is a noticeable improvement of the audio sector, the addition of the Tire model 10 for the GT3, new leaderboards, the Sparco license and a whole series of fixes and finishes for artificial intelligence, graphics, collisions online and even more.

 

There are also a couple of free content of great thickness, or the fascinating Porsche Panamera Turbo, which we will discuss in the next paragraph,

The first  porsche packages enriches Assetto Corsa with seven cars of the prestigious German brand

ON THE ROAD

We start our roundup with the “small” of the lot, or the elegant 718 Cayman S coupe, the third generation of the series translated by the 718 Boxster roadster. The number 718 is a clear tribute to the homonymous, historic racing car, which suggests the transition from the six-cylinder engine of the previous generation to the more efficient (and less polluting) four-cylinder with turbocharger, or a 2.5-liter 350-horsepower . On Assetto Corsa, thanks to agility, driving pleasure and excellent braking system, the 718 Cayman S offers all the qualities that characterize the real model.

Backfire

The overall performance is not to be screamed, but the 285 km / h top speed and the 0-100 km / h in 4.7 seconds are still numbers that deserve respect and especially fun forks. The abundant torque of 420 Nm makes it effective even in drifting, and it is no coincidence that there is a dedicated challenge among the special events in Vallelunga. Wonderful the polygonal model, both in the interior and in the exterior: in fact, in 4K, the only drawback is represented by a few inaccurate shadow.

 

The engine sound is also excellent. From the Cayman we move to a real icon among sports cars, or the famous and very popular 911, which for over forty years is the forbidden dream of countless motorists. Present in the Carrera S version of 2015, on Assetto Corsa it is one of the best balanced and fun cars to drive, translating perfectly the combination of performance and comfort that has always characterized the  porsche pack forza 4 line.

 

With its 420 horsepower and 500 Nm of torque, the car, powered by a 3.0 liter six-cylinder engine, reaches the top speed of 308 kilometers per hour and, for the first time in the history of Carrera, thanks to the Sport Chrono Package breaks through the wall of the four seconds in the 0-100 km / h, placing an excellent 3.9 seconds.

 

Also in this case the polygonal model,Making a further leap forward we arrive at the very bad 918 Spyder, a so-called hybrid “hypercar” similar to Ferrari rivals LaFerrari and McLaren P1: it is no coincidence that the old Top Gear trio wished to put them all on the same track, a broken dream constructors that today are made possible thanks to Assetto Corsa.
