Patch 0.3.2 (beta) for Assetto Corsa Evo has been released: what has been fixed and improved
As you know, the 0.3 update is in beta mode. Patch 0.3.1 was recently released with a lot of minor fixes, which were mainly aimed at improving the interface. From that moment it was a very short time and the new update Assetto Corsa Evo 0.3.2 appeared. The community has been informed about this on the official discord channel.
The official release of the third update has not yet seen the light. The developers in their X-account informed the players that they have some problems, so it is not possible to make a release as fast as desired. Here’s what they say about it:
«We fully understand that you are waiting for the third release of Assetto Corsa EVO in early access. Over the past few weeks, we have encountered some difficulties that have forced us to spend more time preparing for the update. We apologize for the delay and thank you for your continued support and interest in the game - we really appreciate it!»
We don’t know exactly when the full-scale update will come out, but we think it’s coming soon. Meanwhile, Kunos was pleased with a new patch with many fixes.
