Does anyone know if they are going to make another city?

by **Doug Henr** » Fri, 30 Jul 1999 04:00:00

I'd like to see a San Fransico edition or a Seattle edition
Cities with a lot of hilly streets to grab some air.

I did ask them about it in my [email] interview with the developers.
But they said they couldn't answer that question at this point.

How about my hometown, Pittsburgh edition? It would be great, racing down
dirty, bumpy, pothole-filled city streets while pedestrians J-walk right in
front of you, and buses whose drivers are completely oblivious to any traffic
around them! : ) Seriously, I think they will release (hopefully) inexpensive
add-ons (they would probably be too large to download).

It does function right now. Go to the Midtown Madness fan sites to get new
closed off tracks released by Angel Studios. You will need to use the
"Racing Locales" button to access these new tracks.

The Chicago map (core.ar) is approximately 90MB, so they can possibly split
it up.
Besides, most downloadable demos nowadays approaches that size (i.e.
Kingpin) so it's no big deal.

...and if they're smart, they'll release a new version before 'Driver'
is released.

I am psyched for Driver's release. I refuse to buy the PSX version, since
you know how the graphics are in the majority of the automobile games on the
PSX; very crappy. But a map release before Driver's release? Unless Angel
Studio been making a new city map all along since May, well.... just
surprise me :)

I nominate Arab, Alabama--with ALL the locals.

Scary, indeed.

I would like Montreal, London or NYC.

Montreal rules!!

It would probably take them a considerable amount of time to make
another city I would guess..

Wish they were more abundant like those scenery packs for Flight Simulator,
except they're usually devoid of details, which explains their abundance.

In the case of London, the city would probably have changed by the time
they finished it!
