Can RaceRoom COMPARE vs Assetto Corsa Competizione?

Excellent comparison. I love both though ACC feels more real driving experience

actully the sand hittng the wheel well is actully unrealistic as it gets.... only think u hear in a gt3 car is gear whine and little bit engine NOTHING litterly NOTHING else

If RaceRoom ever will be updated and pushed to nowadays graphics it will beat ACC imho.

Only saw 1 person mention VR and that was a reply to someone else’s comment. In terms of VR, Automobilista 2 and Raceroom are the best. ACC is awful in VR and an exercise in frustration trying to get VR to work.

i feel R3E can be adjusted to equal your point on ACC.

Yeah i also prefer the car sounds in Race Room 👍

Absolutely brilliant comparison video.
I just got into RaceRoom and love the new Mazda MX-5 series.
The sounds are just incredible and for me, It works out well.
I also despise the iRacing predatory fees (you have to buy everything AND have a subscription!) ...
RaceRoom is well priced for what it is and is extremely fun to drive.
Thanks again for this great video mate.

Who ever does the sounds in RRE should get a raise. My neck hair just jumped when you switched from ACC to RRE audio, god damn.

Raceroom is a fine sim. It needs weather and time progression etc but it’s a great driving sim, great ffb and driving feel. Great sounds. I drive it regularly. As much as I love RF2 it does feel a bit dated now. AC is still great and Autombilista 2 is growing on me.

I new in the sim racing, firstly i bought ACC and i really liked it but the sound design and graphics - disappointed me.
Yesterday i tried Race Room, just because of Nürburgring Nordschleife. And OMG the sound of the car and down/upshifting are soooo amazing and with ffb just gives me goosebumps every time when im jumping in RR.

Nice touch with Fire Youngman from Ace Combat 2!

The first PC sim I tried was raceroom and I was immediately impressed.

Thinking that a paid for game would be better than the "free" raceroom i purchased AC and could not believe how bad it was (considering how much everyone raves about it), not deterred I purchased ACC, again not overly impressed, Raceroom just feels much much better

Years ago Raceroom was one of the first sims that actually pulled me in and got me hooked. It felt so alive at the time compared to the others and I still love it to this day.

ACC=good graphics but shit performance
Raceroom= fine graphics and the best performance + better physics :)
Who care about good graphics while it come to racing seriously ??

Hello, Ham Sandwich

I found RRE more fun to play. A wide variety of cars and better drivers in online races and stats.
ACC is just frustrating. To get the car around the corner you almost need to be an engineer to setup the car.
Also RRE has fixed setup races. And Nordschleife!

Thanks you for taking the time to show us this to sims side by side. I personally love RR. But like you said “we’re blessed to exit in a time where doing all this is possible”

I stopped playing ACC as the hardware demands are insane - yes it looks fantastic but that takes a hecka rig to actually run. R3E runs flawlessly even with a low budget system. I'm a long term (very!) devout RF2 fan but recently tried R3E - for the second time after not getting along with it on first try 2 years ago - for the sensational AI , then stayed for the ranked servers. I tried iRacing and despise the way they monetise for someone that only simraces intermittently, so see R3E as a fantastic midway ground between the four titles.

To be fair, I clicked this video expecting another RaceRoom-hate video, but I was pleasantly surprised.
You gave what I think is a pretty accurate review of both sims, good job Ermin!

Just discovered Raceroom and absolutely LOVE IT! gave up on IRacing…One because of the decline in race craft,to many wannabes and two no feel to the car on the track,just feels like ice racing.This here,is just amazing!

ACC has a lot more added technicalities in regards to physics which don’t exist in the same scenario when racing the real car on the real track. This added artificial detail, once mastered by the arcade racer makes it more of a challenging experience.

Although Raceroom does a better job replicating real racing, equipment definitely need to give the award to ACC for Its 4th dimensional added technicalities which call for only the best sim arcade racer talent to master.

I just wish there was a more objective way to test these sims.

good thing Raceroom looks like that so my laptop can handel it :/

For real? Raceroom is so much better

I also like that R3E supports multi videocard. For triplescreen 4k this makes it feel like a true pc sim.

I love gearbox noise and pops and crackle noise in R3E when slowing down. And the in cabin rattling from loose parts with the sound of debris bouncing under the cars. ACC has some great sound but R3E is better.

I think it so cool that we have as many sims to chose from as we do today.
The list is longer than you would expect for such a niche market:
1. Asetto Corsa
2. ACC
3.rFactor 2
4. AMS2
5. RaceRoom
6. BeamNG
7. The F1 Series
8. The WRC Series
9. Dirt Rally 2.0
10. Project Cars 2
11. iRacing

The sort of feedback that Sector3 must have found extremely useful. I’ve just moved over to R3E, and…I AM LOVING IT!

Nooburgring

I hate GT3. They all drive the same, they all depend on ABS and TC, and they all sound like shit. The Group 5 and DTM 1992 cars in RaceRoom otoh are incredible: They sound epic, they have varied/interesting handling, they don’t rely on electronic crutches, and they require real skill to drive.

iRacing is my main sim. But driving with friends who are not so invested into it, raceroom is the way to go. And it can be driven with gamepad and that is great!

I haven't loaded up R3E in probably more than 3 years. Still to this day, not ONE racing title (whether simulator, simcade, arcade, whatever) has come CLOSE to having sound as immersive as R3E.

I'm an audiophile and produce my own music, giving me years of audio engineering experience. The people behind R3E (don't know how many of you remember GTR 2 back in 2005, but it's the same developers essentially) outdid themselves when implementing audio into the game.

My main is classic AC. I play other sims as a change of pace. Now that I have a slightly nicer system, and the FF model has been modernized, I'll have to go back to R3E for some laps. The sounds in that game remind you that yes, indeed, you are driving a monster.

Other games, though they have incredible sound as well, just seem too digitized and processed. R3E is raw, and that's how racers, car fans, and audiophiles like myself prefer things.

And now I'll stop gushing.

If only raceroom wouldn't crash at every race.too bad because I enjoy very much it's driving.
Now for acc I don't know.such a strange ffb.i can't find the limit of the car. I'm much faster in ams2 in same circuit and car.acc is a lot different from any sim and not for a good reason, specially in car control.

Why does the RaceRoom car have a Gran Turismo banner on the windshield?

ACC €40, GT3 only.
R3E Free, every car.

What really have to be compared is the online experiance. Leaderboard and KI races are boring over the time and most important to me is racing with and against others. Next to physics the most import thing is how this woks. The quality of the onlien commnity and the race schedules

Even though both have something i still say hands down R3R is the better choice, Acc doesnt rally offer much of tracks neither cars where R3R has almost every track+class to drive with. And you dont need a high end pc to play R3R where ACC actually ask for a more high end pc to run stable.

I drive the GTR in acc and I thought I could feel limit really easy. especially when being aggressive getting out of corners, feeling thecar/tires roll, grip and dig out... Am I wrong?
Also side note I'm from a drifting back ground but I always though kirb cutting that much was cheating is that aloud?

My personal reason for purpose-using R3E is that sometimes I want to drive tracks located in my home land of Sweden. Great tracks like Gelleråsen, Scandinavian Raceway / Anderstorp (where F1 was hosted in the 70s, Falkenberg ring, Knutstorp Ring, Mantorp Park are all on R3E and no other game or simulation software contain these tracks.

Honestly I've been playing ACC solid for the last 2 years or so, I never considered anything else but it always felt like the cars tyres were not rubber, even though I've all but mastered the cars over a thousand hours plus there was always the distinct feeling they were always on the edge of just letting go, especially on curbs.

Any time I've ever lost the car on ACC I've always felt cheated as if in reality that just wouldn't have happened, they lack the weight you feel a car should have.

Recently trying raceroom was awesome, thar feeling of weight shift and the tyres actually moving underneath you like they are on something was a suprise for me, I instantly loved it and purchased the premium pack and went racing online.

It's very early days on raceroom for me but I already feel like there's a reason to race unlike ACC, platinum on ACC comes wayyy to quickly and from then on you are racing for fun only, they need to drop everyone's rank on the game and make platinum a real achievement to get because its pretty boring to race for nothing and you must fine leagues and stuff to make it worthwhile. Raceroom seems to have a better approach with its ranking system. I will say the racing is far cleaner in ACC, there's an unwritten gentleman's agreement where most drivers don't dive you if you are in a battle, raceroom is far more BTCC im coming through and using your door to do it kind of racing and while I love it I think its on the edge of being unfair racing, luckily the penalty system seems well worked out aswell so far.

So glad I tried raceroom though, very fun, I hope more people flock to it, they just need to keep the update momentum up.

GUYS Assetto might have better graphics, but raceroom is a better SIM.....anyway who does real simulation due to graphics quality ? ,no one-.. Rfactor 2 is the best sim out there everybody knows that, with acceptable graphics , but the best, and raceroom has started to run close to RF2, ...AC iracing AMS2 etc, are one step down

Constructive criticism: You should have also taken the different price tags into account. :-)

they are incomparable. and more with this ffb raceroom update 👎, is my opinion. It was a great rre simulator but not anymore.🤷‍♂️

You cant beat the sound of the cars in ACC. Headphones full blast OMG gives me the chills

R3E feels a lot like iRacing to me now. I like the changes.

Raceroom. My favorite SIM.

Best advice for getting into RRR, drive the GTR2 Corvette and BMW M2, as well as the GTR 1 Ford GT and any of the DTM cars - forget about comparing any sim to another, that is a waste of time, and does a disservice to both sims. Just enjoy what each does right, and ignore both of their small imperfections ;)

loving R3E going back to ACC the cars feel like you are driving on ice dont know whats changed but it feels so different now, I have never thought about the shall we say lesser graphics of R3E I just wish the loading was a bit snappier I dont race online as I suffer quite badly with anxiety & dont like the thought of me ruining someone race by my ineptness & general lack of skill :(
