I am not happy with Indycar 2 but at least it works halfway,
and maybe a patch will fix it ???? one day , But as for
Microprose GP2 I dont think this will ever be released ?
on the www.mi..com.. etc the very latest from Geoff has been
there for the last 10 years ,,, so would you guys at Papyrus
please go ahead and do Formula 1, try to do better than you
did in Indy2 but even if you cant, get it going anyway ,you
can release the patch later ...at least we will have F1 and
Microprose will still be saying yes yes yes next month, or
the month after next ,or next year or next who knows what.
Think about it.
let us know................

Why does ICR 2 need a patch ? What's wrong with it ? The only bug I know of
is the problem with the yellow flags (if you are right behind the pace car
during the yellow you can go around him and lap the field several times. You
get black flagged but only for a stop-and-go penalty and then you are several
laps ahead of the other cars.) They fixed the paintkit bug with the sripe on
the back of the car, but the red stripe on the side of the car hasn't been
fixed yet. The only patch ICR 2 needs is one for the yellow flag problem and
for the red stripe problem. Other than that I like ICR 2.

Well, there is the bug with the flickering rev-meter. On my system the rev-
meter flickers and it is quite annoying. It happened also in the demo but on
my friends machine it worked fine. I guess it might be something to do with
the display driver.

Oh, and the traction bug problem which kills your setups, and the replay
bug which loses replays and the "eternal yellow flag" bug and etc etc.

It needs a patch, but still a great game.
