Universal Art of Rally (by Funselektor Labs/Noodlecake)

We are probably a small and more critical section of mobile gamers.

 

Yes, but that's what sets us apart.

 

I tried asking noodlecake on discord about the poor performance as on the normal funselektor server they only took feedback while in beta...now: go to noodlecake. My inital post their only got a "it's fine on our end, please send a support ticket" answer. Very disappointed with how this turned out I tried another time to clear this up. Please see the attached image. I hope this gets better and worth to buy with time. The fact that it's cheaper now doesn't justify the poor performance compared to what the game trailer for mobile "promised".

 

Update went live yesterday, performance much better. Still no crowds booo

 

It sadly shows that the trailer containing them was not showing actual mobile footage, they can't do it on ios. Sad.

 

Now they're releasing more DLC instead of dealing with the game's actual problems. Ridiculous.

 

Update is strange one, edit controls section seems to be for a pc as keyboard shortcuts in there. Performance still a little all over the place in parts (iPhone 15pro max). No crowds but I’ve been told this is down to apple not supporting the technology to render crowds. Something to do with indirect rendering

 

Should have said I still think this is a great game and worth a purchase if into these sort of games. I’ve also found that in the advanced graphics section if you turn off all the auto graphics settings and set them to highest (iPhone 15 pro max) then I think performance is better. The auto settings seem to make the game stutter a bit more

 

Technology to render crowds?
Both wreckfest and grid autosport has animated people along the tracks and they look neat on an m1 device on high gfx setting. When I say people I mean humanoid shaped models not textureless bricks with 3 color stripes.
Is it by any chance possible that both developers are talentless and/or lazy (at least in the coding department)?
Absolute drift was a resource hog despite it's minimalistic visuals. The single bug I reported years ago was acknowledged by funselektor yet ignored by noodlecake, no update came for a long time....until they finally pushed out one that "removed" the wheels of my car...this was a year ago, noodlecake left it like this.
Art of rally is an lod pop fest on it's highest setting even without the "crowd", no fix in sight just a "more of the same" dlc.

Apologies for sounding so negative, I really wanted this to be a good port, but so far it's simply not.

 

I hear you, it’s the answer I was given on the artofrally Reddit. I’m no developer so not going to question, but did seem a strange one

 

Sorry, got worked up.

 

This was just posted on discord:

"Just a quick note on performance optimization: Unfortunately due to a variety of technical constraints, the amount that we can improve performance on mobile devices going forward is very limited. We are still investigating some ways to improve performance slightly and we will post an update on the Discord if anything happens. Until then we don’t have much more information than that."

 

After seeing what Realistic posted that’s me out .Just a lot of excuses I was really looking forward to this game but I’ve seen how poorly it runs even on high end iPads and iPhones
