So called F1RC2 !!

Did ANYBODY noticed that se so called "F1RC2" screenshots are screenshots
from the F1RC "1" with just a "WORK IN PROGRESS" label on the bottom, are
you all stupid or just blind ?

Have you never heard of internet hoaxes, never heard of that women finding a
ckicjen head in a box of chicken mc nuggets or the NOKIA phone which is also
acting like a radar warning, for our US friends radar detectors are kind of
forbidden in Europe and thus very "hoaxable".

The point about UBI's delay in releasing the patch is valid but all this
"they are ***s they are going to release F1RC2 in 3 months" is just
completely off the line.

I thought you had more brains and checked the info before screaming like
hell, this NG is starting to look more and more like CNN, ABC and CBS on the
elections eve, I don't have confirmation for the news, but i dump it anyway
in fear that other one will have the "scoop" before me...

UbiSoft mentions F1 Racing Championship 2 on their very own E3 site. Also,
GameSpot UK has also got information on this game, which leds us to believe
this is not a "bogus" game.

So? That's because it's a work in progress (no pics available yet) and
F1RC2 is just F1RC tweaked. Sounds to me like you are the gullible
one.

Maybe this *is* the same sim/game {but as Ubi would let you think}
with the patch aka fix coming out as F1RC2? Things that make you
say "Ahmmmmmm?" "O" Well.."And so it goes."...

well, on the "bogus" site they have "screenshots" and on the UBI site they
don't....doesn't that seem strange ?

On top of this when you look ,on the UBI site for every game "almost" ready
they have a working link with a small game summary, for F1RC2 there is
NOTHING, NADA....so the question is/are.

How did the other site have screenshots of a UBI game when UBI doesn't ?
Why does UBI give details on games "almost" out such as RAYMAN, CLANCY
ghost, and NOTHING for F1RC2 ?

Let's try to act as an UBI sales/marketing guy, if you are going to release
a game in less than 4 months do you just put the title and nothing else on a
web page, when was the F1RC demo out ? Begging of january i think, the game
was out 3 months later, we had screenshots WAY before that, and some tests
in magazines and the whole thing...Same thing about NASCAR4 the demo was out
like 6 months before the game, and here the gameis out in 4 months, and
nothing....

I admit that UBI is making F1RC2 since they put it on their webiste, but not
a 4 months away release....

On top of this to react more specificly to your post if a site puts "F1RC2"
screenshots and in fact they use F1RC screenshots with a "works in progress"
caption without specifying it then they can't be considered honest can they
?

I have pictures of GPL2, NASCAR 6, GP4, I even have movie of WSC...see wxhat
i mean, I use the existing stuff and put "works in progress" on the bottom.

Of course before putting these pictures online on my site i will add a lot
of ads on my site so that I can enjoy the huge number of hits I'll get...

Everyone that visited the "F1RC2" site got f.....d by the site who just
wanted to get some hits...
