You must have no clue of how things work at Kunos to say such an exorbitance. The "marketing" effect is a consequence not a cause.

 

[Michael Hornbuckle]

Wow, all of you seem to honestly believe that Kunos are GIVING you something and deserve your gratitude
You are customers that pay for the game and Kunos are selling their product. Nothing more than that.
When they add another car they do it to convince undecided customers, not to make your Christmas brighter. It's pure marketing, boys and girls.
Anyway, keep hyping. It doesn't hurt me, just makes me smile.

Totally agree - GSC 2013 is the best driving sim at the moment. Driving experience is just wonderful.
But try to say that to all Assetto Corsa fanboys

Game Stock Car 2013 Fanboy butthurt over having nobody online to play with...nothing to see here, move on

 

[antirussia81]

@Michael Hornbuckle Yeah, because in AC you have tons of people online. Or not?
@Damien Wintz And you surely have such a clue? You must be Kunos Development Team in disguise, right?

It may well be pure marketing. But whatever it is, if it gets us more Ferraris I won't be complaining. You can't have too many Ferraris.

Can you at least be an original troll? Everybody that reads this thread today is going to know that your third post would have something to do with AC not having MP.

So how many Ferrari's does GSC have? How much new content are you getting for Christmas? Are you looking forward to driving on a laser scanned Ring? How are those laser scanned tracks over there anyways?
Got any licensed BMW's? That's too bad, they're real nice.
Don't you just hate the glare that you get on a slightly dirty windshield at 10:00 in the morning? Amazing how real that DX11 looks, huh? Oh yeah, you have graphics that were real nice in 2005.

I actually like the GSC series (OMG how the hell can I like more than one sim; I bet you mind is blown) so damn you for being such a douche that I had to rag on it......Do the letters FO mean anything to you?

Was it me or you that started moaning about online mode in GSC?

So how many Ferrari's does GSC have?
None. And so what?

How much new content are you getting for Christmas?
Nothing. And all we got form Kunos was another part of unfinished game.


Are you looking forward to driving on a laser scanned Ring?
No. I must disappoint you. I'm not a "laser scanned track" fetishist.

How are those laser scanned tracks over there anyways?
See above.

Got any licensed BMW's? That's too bad, they're real nice.
I've got mine in a garage. So I guess I can check it myself

Don't you just hate the glare that you get on a slightly dirty windshield at 10:00 in the morning?
I own AC (does it blow your mind too ?) and I must say that "glare" doesn't impress me much. But that's just a matter of opinion.

Amazing how real that DX11 looks, huh? Oh yeah, you have graphics that were real nice in 2005....
...and much better driving experience thanks to better FFB.

And does it to you?

Anyway, I think it's time to finish this discussion. It doesn't lead anywhere

Hallelujah ......

 

[antirussia81]

Hallelujah ......

Consider it my New Year's Eve gift to all AC fans (it's almost as good as "gifts" from Kunos )
Happy New Year by the way

 

[Mapu]

shut up already, you're polluting this thread

 

[betterstranger]

I wonder if they will be able to simulate all the gizmos the car have (flaps, kers and so on).

Radosławie, you can be sure that they will. Aris wrote one that all flaps aka. active aero of Pagani Hugugaagyayyayaahaahhhhh are simulated by AC. So I'm pretty sure all other stuff will be simulated also.

 

[betterstranger]

Well, nothing jaw dropping for me, but OK. Still can't wait for some real track comparison of these cars (P1, 918, LaF) if that ever happens.

If they give us a faster formula car, I'm fine with cars we already have. Just more tracks and multiplayer.

What did you say bro? Marco wrote that licenses are extended so.... say hello to P1 I guess!

 

[Dazmaniac]

I wonder if they will be able to simulate all the gizmos the car have (flaps, kers and so on).

I would think so, the McLaren MP12-4C has the moving rear wing in AC, so don't see why La Ferrari shouldn't come with all the bells and whistles.

Here comes the mod edit

 

[Kevin Ascher]

OMG!! You mean that they have plans to support this game for five years and add content to it but they have the gall to charge us for it? They have the nerve to have a long term financial plan? Who the hell do these guys think they are? How dare them make a big deal out of getting the license to Ferrari's latest and greatest supercar. Don't they know that every game out there has this Ferrari in it. And don't get me started on the whole scanning of the Ring deal. Them sorry SOB's got a contract that nobody else could get; one that over forty thousand people voted they wanted and they have the balls to charge us for it? WTF??? Next you are going to tell me they took my hard earned $40 (FORTY DOLLARS!!! I had to go without food and internet for 3 years to save up that fortune) and plan on taking an effing holiday and not give me a new build Friday. This better not be true or else I will kick a kitten in the mouth.

@antirussia81 There is a much better troll post for you to copy and paste. Cheers!

Please go on, I like your sense of humour
