Rallying legend Subaru set to join ACR!

Fans of the Japanese-based cars, famous for their handling quality and motorsport history, will be able to take to track and challenge friends in the iconic SUBARU IMPREZA P1 2000 and the stunning SUBARU BRZ 2012! The SUBARU BRZ 2012 a car whose set-up was once described as “a recipe for agility, low roll, tossable handling and general chicanery” by Top Gear magazine....sounds like a perfect fit for ACR to us!
Both cars will offer up some exciting races, we can’t wait to see how they handle everything from the crazy curves of Lakeside Italia to the fast and furious Hockenheimring Grand Prix circuit!
The Subaru announcement is just one in a raft of new additions coming to ACR as part of a major update; you can look forward to even more big announcements in the coming weeks. #ComingtoACR

AUTO CLUB REVOLUTION BEGINS NEW PHASE OF EVOLUTION IN JUNE  

 

Oculus Rift Support, Massively Expanded Content, and Re-engineered Graphics and Physics

 

Two years after Auto Club Revolutions introduction on PC, Eutechnyx today unveiled details of how the free-to-play motorsport experience is entering a new era.Nothing less than a full remodeling, this “2.0” version of the game begins on June 16 with the launch of a Closed Beta to get feedback from its long-time members of the ACR community. Select new players in various regions worldwide will also be admitted in stages.Oculus Rift functionality is deep in development and is currently in early experimental tests – a full ACR game will be playable when the new VR hardware is released to initial backers this Fall.

 

 

“We’ve spent two years laying the foundation of an authentic community-driven game for fans of automotive culture. We have hundreds of thousands of players worldwide that motivate us to push the ACR experience even further, and now we are bringing the best ideas to fruition.” says Dave Thompson, Development Director of ACR.

Already featuring over 50 of the world’s leading manufactured cars like McLaren, BMW, Ford and Bentley, a wide range of new manufacturers and car models have been added to the virtual lineup (such as RUF and Maserati), new interiors are to be added to boost the stunning level of detail. Fresh bespoke audio and engine sounds have also been reproduced to deliver anauthentic sound experience for full player immersion. Players will now be able to create a 360 degree garage to admire their collection. Vehicle physics have been overhauled to not only enhance realism but also competitive fun.

 

 

Accessibility has been a key emphasis of ACR 2.0 – now only a single download is needed to jump into the action and start interacting with the community.“Our new single client is designed to make a bigger and better splash, pushing the quality of content and integrating new technologies that will further enhance player interaction. We have exciting times ahead of us and we can’t wait to share it with all our players. We strive to deliver content players want by providing a first-class, free-to-play online racing experience however possible,” says DaveThompson.

New players will be able to register for the ACR Closed Beta from June 16 at http://www.autoclubrevolution.com/and current players will have immediate access when the Closed Beta starts.

Welcome to the ACR 2.0 ALPHA test!
Hi all!
We're really excited to bring you the long awaited ACR test phase. The ALPHA phase is an invite-only server stress test, which will help us to prepare the game for the Beta and fix any problems we might come across. Please be aware that whatever you see in the ALPHA version isn't final - a lot of features will be changed and even more will be added. We also ask you to keep all the ALPHA test feedback in this thread, just to make it easier for us to read and react to it.
We are inviting players in waves of a few thousand at a time, and we will keep doing that for the next days, so even if you didn't get your invite email yet, please be patient cause you will probably get it soon.
The last important thing is, you will get a special account together with password, which you can use in ALPHA stage only. This account has nothing to do with your regular ACR account and it will be wiped completely after the test ends.
The test will be starting soon, wait for an email with the announcement please and when you're finally in the game, we hope you'll enjoy the changes.
