So are we to expect a lot more tracks now that the Pirelli World Challenge is gone and now part of Blancpain? Same with some Asian tracks?

Well, the game is for now only Blancpain GT Series. I think the race schedule for 2019 is set in stone already. Unless they dont open the game up to more series via special DLCs, this (your quote) will not affect the GT Series.
 
Has anyone with an Accuforce wheel figured out how to get FFB? It shows up in my Simxperience App but I still feel nothing in game

Did you check the FFB threads on the official forum? I just skimmed through one of the threads (I've been gone over a month so too many posts to read) and I know I've seen people talk about using the Accuforce. I think this was after the 2nd update was applied to the game. Good luck.

hope we get to see also a bit more polishing work with the new build and increased price

That's kinda how early access works, each build will be a bit more polished than the last one. This build will introduce basic multiplayer, endurance races, and pit stops, as well as general polishing of all the existing bits. They spelled it all out so everyone can know exactly what polishing to expect.

Nice to see that Kunos is still on schedule not unlike a certain Japanese Playstation franchise.
 
^Agreed. I look forward to ACC monthly updates as much as GTS. Considering PD's track record with DLC in GT5/6, their regularity in GTS is a HUGE improvement IMO. They've only missed 2 months so far.

Anyway, looking forward to this month's update. Paul Ricard is meh, but more content is always good (as well as more polishing to the overall game). I'm just miffed that the car I'm looking forward to the most (NSX) won't be here until Feb :irked:

Some information on the multiplayer aspect

This version adds the part of the multiplayer system that is very similar to the pickup server system you already know from AC1. However we have to limit the usable session types to Practice sessions only (that means no quickrace or race weekend).

You already know our roadmap for ACC is very tight, which doesn't offer much space for unforseen events. Sadly we experienced a series of those while creating the multiplayer infrastructure, so we ran late and therefore do not have the confidence and tests we would like to have at this point. To be absolutely honest, we even discussed about not releasing the MP in 0.3 at all. But we defined a set of features that is quite stable and playable - and in a huge team effort with endless dedication we could go for it. One of the very important elements in Early Access is that we can run tests and receive feedback very early in the process, so I'm quite happy that we could avoid holding back even a limited version.

i feel a bit odd about the game, there is something slightly off with it graphically i think but i can not put my finger on it.
for example i feel it lacks real used-track-surface, i did not have this feeling in build 1.
also replay-sound wise it felt more visceral and i liked the color palette more in build 1. In 2 it got altered and it looks a bit pale and washed out now.
for some reason cars seem to look a bit off too, they have less depth, the bmw looks as if it has shaders or so missing when seen in replays.
hard to say but i feel like they reworked the engine from build 1 and it's in a weird state.
otherwise physics, sounds in general, objects, textures, it's fine. game just feels 'sterile' looking now, which it did not in the first build at all.
