[mcnasty1]

[mcnasty1]

Anyway I have an poo ther code if someone else eants it.

Ooh I'd be up for that ... Same with mine if the original code works I'll pass the new one on to you but mine did say it was not available so I think the code was bad.

 

[mcnasty1]

Lol wtf poo.lol. auto spelling is hilarious

Don't worry I knew what you meant Eric lol

Actually if you remember I didn't but pCars on release as I didn't have an XBO or wheel at the time but as soon as I did I still purchased it despite the problems you guys were having with the online side of the game. This game was bought with the full knowledge that there were no private lobbies, that was common knowledge prior to release but I decided that it was worth the punt just to see what the fuss was about with regards to the driving in the game. A decision I'm certainly not regretting now having played it.

Unfortunately we are beta testers for most games in this age and most games are released requiring patches and fixes. Is it right... not really but we pay our money knowing that and have free choice to do so.

I was not a beta tester for dirt and that was a port. We are not beta testers for F1, although you could argue last year was one big beta. Forza is never even flawed but for design. I think game makers are lazy and beholden to Microsoft and Sony and I'll never excuse that.

Project cars at least had the framework for multiplayer. Assetto has no such thing.

 

[Peter Hooper]

BTW if you have the prestige pack my code would be no good because its just three of those same cars... Think its the performance pack.

 

[mcnasty1]

They defneeded more thsn the 12 guys working there..

 

[mcnasty1]

I got one for all nine if you want il email to you in two hours...lol still at work...wanted to try to join the same lobby if possble to see if thats even a thing..us uk that is

Its always been a project Robert. Even PC have no custom lobbies and they've been going for a couple of years now. I am very happy to have the chance to enjoy the sim in its current state and enjoy it as it evolves over time. Kuno's are a small team trying to put out something very special. It won't be everyones cup of tea and that's why the choice to buy or not is there for all. I just hope enough pick it up and stick with it to make it worthwhile for the devs to see the project through on console as well as PC.

Cheers Eric that would be great... Either pm me or my email is hammerpgh@gmail.com

We can definitely try to join a lobby together at some poi t to test it out

 

[mcnasty1]

Well I can guve you my extra when I get home in two hours peter...that way youll have all nine.

 

[mcnasty1]

Got it..il ahoot it your way in a bit

 

[mcnasty1]

You get that code to work Peter?

I certainly don't wish anyone not to enjoy it, I'm just giving my perspective. Since I can't think of a game that didn't have multiplayer on the console, I have to single Kunos out. They, in fact, promised a "fully customizable multiplayer" before release, and I counted on that. The difference in pCARS and Kunos is that SMS at least incorporated MP, but Kunos didn't even try. I do hope they can get things straightened out. I guess some of us value multiplayer more than others, and judging by the massive returns, many feel that way. But again, I'm sure it's a pleasure to drive. It's just not a priority right now for me. Curious yes.

Would be interesting to see if the pre-set lobbies are region locked. If not, it's at least something.

Insanity!!!!!!!!!
man I was freaking out watching that finish last night, these guys have massive balls. I'd have to agree that indycar drivers are probably the top of the pile right now with high racing quality like this on ovals AND race tracks, completely nuts. I've always been a bit against open wheelers on ovals due to obvious safety problems but when the racing is like that you can easily see why they should continue. Really great entertainment...
can't wait for the glen next week

Toast, thanks for the comment on You Tube. I clearly had the pace, probably a solid #2 in qualy if I had pushed it. Actually the race car felt better, as the track rubbers in more. Too many mistakes, as usual, with you and Nova being the beneficiaries. Nova was fast too, and you always are My teammate, elpeltz, drove a great race. Very good lines, and he is much improved. I think you may have run away with it again, but for that dropped game. That's so frustrating.

I did Eric, many thanks for that really appreciate it

I can't disagree with you on the fact that Kuno's were misguided in advertising it as 'fully customisable single player and multiplayer' as that was always going to lead to some strong disent. It's very strange to do that really considering that on PC that's still not the case. But to their credit at least they came clean and admitted that was not the case before it was on the shelves.

As I half expected MP to be a problem (although not in this way.) it's not a biggie for me and the single player side is so good that I can live with it as is until they do something about it. I am going to try the MP side of it as well though as some of those predefined races look pretty cool anyway. The concern is if the response from the console community is really bad then it will not pay Kuno's to continue it's development which would be a huge loss as far as i'm concerned. Currently there are still a lot of like-minded guys loving the game for what it is and I just hope that's enough to keep the incentive there for the devs. Time will tell.
