La "Mitsubishi Concept XR-PHEV Evolution Vision Gran Turismo" è da oggi disponibile per Gran Turismo 6, in esclusiva per PlayStation 3. Si tratta di una concept ibrida con tecnologie e carattere di derivazione sportiva. Non lasciarti sfuggire l'opportunità di scoprire il suo potenziale!

Come riceverla

Dopo l'installazione dell'aggiornamento 1.08, l'auto può essere acquistata tramite la sezione [Vision GT], all'interno del menu [AUTO] in "Casa Mia" (qui si trova anche il filmato di presentazione della vettura). In alternativa, è possibile ottenere l'auto anche completando un giro (a prescindere dal tempo ottenuto) nel nuovo evento stagionale, disponibile solo per un periodo limitato.

Informazioni sulla Mitsubishi Concept XR-PHEV Evolution Vision Gran Turismo

Mitsubishi Motors, azienda costruttrice dal ricco palmares sportivo grazie ai successi nel Dakar Rally e nel campionato mondiale di rally (WRC), ha sviluppato uno speciale modello concept per Vision Gran Turismo: la "Mitsubishi Concept XR-PHEV EVOLUTION V".

Nello sviluppo di questo speciale modello concept, Mitsubishi Motors ha coinvolto il team di progettazione, l'Advanced Vehicle Research and Development Group e l'Aerodynamic Engineering Development Group, rispettando fedelmente il processo previsto per la creazione di una vera vettura sportiva.

Lo stile dell'auto segue gli elementi di base della "MITSUBISHI Concept XR-PHEV" presentata al Tokyo Motor Show 2013, arricchendoli con le conoscenze guadagnate in anni di competizioni per perfezionare ogni dettaglio. Il risultato finale è l'evoluzione di quel concept, ora un'auto da competizione a tutti gli effetti.

Il concept progettuale "Athlete Form" (forma atletica) è stato sviluppato ulteriormente, enfatizzando in modo aggressivo le caratteristiche di guida. La famosa griglia frontale rappresenta uno studio per i SUV Mitsubishi di prossima generazione, mentre la sagoma che va a formare un cuneo, partendo dal simbolo del triplice diamante, richiama alla mente un atleta pronto a scattare dai blocchi di partenza, facendo intuire il grande potenziale della vettura.

Utilizzando diverse tecnologie particolarmente avanzate, quali il sistema Plug-in Hybrid EV, la potenza del motore e la sua straordinaria coppia vengono trasmessi alle 4 ruote tramite una trasmissione a 8 rapporti e doppia frizione (DCT). Le straordinarie prestazioni di guida sono controllate con la massima precisione dal sistema S-AWC del veicolo, che distribuisce in modo ottimale la potenza motrice sulle 4 ruote, garantendo una maneggevolezza che consente al guidatore di portare l'auto esattamente come desidera.

Inoltre, la carrozzeria, in plastica rinforzata con fibra di carbonio (CFRP), riduce il peso e contribuisce all'agilità della vettura, mentre la deportanza generata dall'aerodinamica parte frontale e dai diffusori posteriori garantisce ottime prestazioni in curva. Le ruote maggiorate in alluminio da 20 pollici rendono molto efficaci le sospensioni, mentre l'aspetto dei parafanghi anteriori e posteriori trasmette l'idea di potenza, di muscoli tesi pronti allo scatto.

Speriamo che ti divertirai con questo speciale modello concept, che racchiude dentro di sé lo spirito sportivo di Mitsubishi Motors.

Multiplayer ALPHA

For testing purposes we opened our Test environment to a lot of players. First I would like to thank everyone who joined and helped us test MP Alpha. Based on our test results, observations and your feedback, we are adding a few more things to MP Alpha before going live. Some of these will be included with the launch while some will be patched in later. But here’s a small list of things we’re adding.

• We’re adding start lights in HUD as players could not see the actual lights on the tracks from distance.
  
• The MP Browser is now sorting by player count in a server. A lot more filtering/sorting options will come later.
  
• We’re adding an information box to the MP Browser which shows the settings (flag rules, fuel usage, tyre wear, mechanical damage etc.) and if you have any friends playing on that particular server.
  
• We’re implementing new cut track rules that will have 3 different levels.
  
• We’re going to add an information screen (e.g hold TAB to see who is on the server, their ping times etc.)
  
• Various improvements to our Wrecker Prevention system.
  
• We are making some small HUD changes to better inform the player about which session they are in.
  
• And a lot of fixes.
  

On that note, the MP Alpha testing phase on WIP application will end sometime next week, as we need to set things back to normal for our closed betatesters to focus on other work in progress features. Again, a big thank you for all who participated. Your feedback and bug reports really helped us get MP Alpha to where it needs to be.

What’s in the Big Patch?

The MP Alpha patch includes a lot of improvements and fixes, along with some very nifty functionalities behind the scenes. I’ll just list some of them here. The full patchnotes will of course be released with the patch.

Improved road shaders

• We’ve made a lot of improvements to our water and road shaders.
  
• We’re adding the ability to adjust the amount of head movement in cockpit. We know a lot of you asked for this as it was disorienting for some.
  
• We’ve made various improvements and fixes to steering. Fixed jittery/jerky steering when taking corners.
  
• We’re adding the ability to scroll the car/class/livery selection wheels in the main menu. We ran out of space so we had to add a scroll This of course will be replaced with WEB based menus in the future.
  
• We refactored the code further and improved the performance issues that occurred when certain overlays appeared.
  
• We refactored the AI code to improve their performance and to avoid having to have “workarounds” to get them to behave properly on certain occasions.
  
• Various fixes to the sound engine.
  
• Various art fixes to cars and tracks.
  
• Various improvements bug fixes in the code.
  

Of course there will be some new content included as well. The full patchnotes will be pretty big but hopefully the summary above is sufficient for now.

What’s Next

With MP Alpha patch getting wrapped up, some of the team started focusing on the next big planned improvements.

We are still working on the temporary R3E UI that will include MP Alpha to all R3E players. Apart from MP, it will also include Single Races.

We are preparing the code base and the structure for the big switch to WEB technology based menu and interface system. This will also replace the temp UI mentioned above.

We started looking deeply into the code for force feedback and road feeling improvements. There are some major changes which will need extensive tests but we hope to be able to share them with you before the summer ends. Along with the ffb changes, we will also update the default controller profiles.

The holidays are coming soon and the studio will take a few weeks off in July. The break will slow things down a bit but we hope to share these changes with you as soon as possible.

Con perfetta puntualità, dopo i numerosi screens e video di oggi, il team ISI ha rilasciato due gustose novità gratuite per il suo rFactor 2: sono infatti disponibili la Dallara DW12 Indycar ed il mitico tracciato americano di Indianapolis, in configurazione ovale e stradale. Per il download dei files visitate questa pagina. Il server dedicato di DrivingItalia è già attivo online per una spettacolare Indy 500 !

We are happy to announce that the Indy car and Indianapolis Motor Speedway are now available, free, to rFactor 2 users. This was an epic project for us, with the oval and roadcourse originally surveyed in 2012, we visited the facility five more times since, including being there the day after the asphalt was laid late last year. We’re extremely proud to be the first simulator to feature the new 2014 Grand Prix of Indianapolis roadcourse as well.

Our track team have gone above and beyond by including the 2007 Grand Prix, 2013 Grand Prix, 2014 Grand Prix and 2013 Oval layouts for you to enjoy. All for free to those of you who own our product. There are three physically different Dallara DW12 chassis configurations and it has two engine configurations, making a total of six technically different cars. Within the roadcourse configuration, we also have two tire options, Primary (black-sidewall) and Alternate (red-sidewall). This means effectively seven combinations, not including wets. Again, all free for rFactor 2 users.
