: ..once upon a time MPS programmed F1GP (Part one). As soon as they
: programmed a Null-Modem/MoDem Update, I found this one in my LETTERBOX!

: ( Did not get any answer, btw). One morning it was in my letterbox.
: Yes, good old days...where are they gone?

It seems that MPS's entire view on customer support and handling has changed
drastically since it was bought up by Spectrum Holobyte some years ago.
I remember a time when MPS was a brand of quality, brilliant support and brilliant titles. But after the takeover by SH, it seems they don't give a shit
anymore. Take Grand Prix Manager for instance. The first game was so full of bugs that it made the game unplayable!! But, instead of making patches to fix all those bugs, they made a new game, Grand Prix Manager 2, which in essence is the
same game, only with the buggs fixed. So you had to buy a WHOLE NEW GAME just to get the bugfixes!! I mean, come on!
Unless they change their entire attitude to their customers, I am NEVER going to buy another MPS product. And yes, I will rather use pirated software. I'm not
going to loose any sleep over a company that doesn't give a *** either way.
Why should I care if they don't??

Former MPS customer.

Sure there is....don't buy MPS games! They lost my business until they
can offer a free upgrade to GP3 when it comes out....I personally hope
MPS bites the big one and goes belly up, looks like they're
close...just one little push....

  if they do want full price then it will be time to search the PIR8
  sites

   MPS need to listen to their customer or die

     FOOTNOTE: Software Piracy is one who makes copies of
       software and sells it! Having a copy for your private use is
      considered having an authorized version of the product.
       What about all the VCR recordings people make?The movie
      and TV industries work harder than you ever thought about,
        yet it's legal to have these for your own use.I suspect that
      somewhere in the future,the same will end up for software,
        as long as it's not sold or used in business.

GP2 is an unbelievably brilliant, amazing, fantastic (etc!) game, beats
ANY other hands down, no thanks to Microprose.  It's purely down to
Geoff Crammond.  Customer support?  Microprose can't even support their
own pecker-ridden heads.  If you believe you're disappointed with GP2
then thank GOD that you didn't buy VIRTUAL KARTS.
