TOCA 2: How Good is Online Play?

by Alan Bernard » Sat, 07 Aug 1999 04:00:00

Was wondering, how good is online play with TOCA 2.  How many racers can you
get without significant warp?  I heard online play is pretty good.  SCGT
online play is starting to bum me out, seeing that with my 56k anything over
three racers is just not playable or fun.  I'm not surprised.  SCGT has the
EA tag on it, which invariably means abominable netplay.  You figure
Ubisoft, who went from F1RS and terrible netplay to MGPR2 and some a nice
module and a nice online racing service; then you figure EA, who goes from
bad to bad to seemingly bad and then to worse.

Not surprising in the least-- make crappy products and people will come.
That's the American way: fooled in every sense of the word.

But back to my original question.  TOCA 2 and netplay.  Is it good?

Thanks EA,

Alanb
