Automobilista 2: custom races and changing conditions

Automobilista 2

A player tailors races to friends with different experience levels and adds AI opponents to the field. Their account shows how arranging the field can become part of the fun.

Another player discovers an interest in older racing eras by assembling seasons and trying their machinery. A personal curiosity can become the next championship.

What makes it fun

  1. Build the race before the start

    Set up a multiclass race and cars with different speeds will share the track. Choosing which classes line up is part of shaping the race.

  2. Fight the AI through corners

    Tune the AI to your pace and you can go side by side into a corner. Each turn asks whether to make a move or hold your position.

  3. Rethink your line when rain comes

    When rain arrives, the changing surface makes you reconsider your line and braking. A late shift in weather can keep the race tense to the finish.

A typical run

Set a custom season’s classes, tracks and weather.

A reviewer enjoys mixing very different racing categories into an unusual event; planning the field becomes its own creative choice.

One driver adjusts AI difficulty until opponents keep threatening an overtake at the next corner. The aim is a contest that fits the driver, not merely a higher setting.

A reviewer remembers a race changing from heavy rain to a drying track, making the changing scene part of the excitement.

One player moves from familiar time trials to more powerful machinery and then older formula cars, finding new things to learn in each class.

Another player rarely races opponents, instead using assists while trying to stay on the track and improve a personal time. Competition is not the only goal in these accounts.

What sets it apart

A driver values historical circuits that let them revisit favourite venues missing from their other games. Choosing an era can matter as much as choosing a car.

Learning curve and difficulty

One driver enjoys testing the limit and recovering a slide rather than always following a safe pattern. It is a personal account of control, not a claim that every mistake is recoverable.

Builds and playstyles

A personal championship

A controller player enjoys tailoring championships to a preferred degree of simulation, making room for shorter sessions.

Who might not enjoy it
