Pros
Pro Randomized world
Elements within the world such as enemy positions, item locations, gun state, world layout is randomized, making each playthrough different.
Pro Permadeath
There are no checkpoint or saves. Once the player is killed, he has to start over.
Pro Unique hyper-realistic gun simulation
The game asks the player to manipulate each part of the gun independently. Thus, before being able to shoot a gun, it has to be holstered, the magazine has to be removed, each bullet has to be slid into the magazine individually, the magazine has to be put back in, the safety has to be turned off, the slide lock has to be released and the hammer has to be pulled back.
Pro Partially supports VR
While missing some components like screen overlay Assetto Corsa is not fully playable while using VR, though it is still a coll concept to toy around with.
Pro Mods, mods, mods
One of the best features of Assetto Corsa is its mod support. The unlimited variety mods bring for car and track selection is already astounding and will only get better with time.
Pro Supports 900 degree rotation of gaming wheel
Assetto Corsa supports gaming wheels and 900 degree rotation while using them. What is even more enjoyable is that the cockpit view animates 1:1 with the rotations of the players gaming wheel while used.
Cons
Con Mostly just a proof of concept
The game was made within a week as part of a game jam. The developers built the game on 3 central ideas - gun handling mechanics, randomized levels, and unordered storytelling. As such, the game is lacks polish or purpose.
Con Single player is a bit lackluster
The single player mode for Assetto Corsa has all the expected components for a racing game, earning medals in one tier of racing to advance to the next, but still all in all feels a bit thin. Being that the official release is only 1.0 hopefully there will be more added to the game in the future.
