+ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4AJg-gt+ADs- You bought a racing sim, got THE top racing sim on the market, and there +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs- was no fix or update promised. The writer was implying that GP2 was some +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs- sort of unfinished product, the +ACY-quot+ADs-black and white TV+ACY-quot+ADs- of the analogy, and +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs- that is from where my +ACY-quot+ADs-valve model+ACY-quot+ADs- came from. Since GP2 is, IMO, +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs- superior to anything else on the market by now, it stands to reason that +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs- they must be lower than the black and white TV on the racing-sim +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs- evolutionary scale. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4AJg-gt+ADs- I'd love to see your NICAM, widescreen HDTV model, but it's not +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs- available.

Very well put and handled Mark, I didnt mean to +ACY-quot+ADs-butt+ACY-quot+ADs- in , but I was +ADw-br+AD4- just simply posting my opinions in the +ADw-br+AD4- hope that some people would wake up just a little and really start +ADw-br+AD4- demanding more for their patience and money. I might give a hard +ADw-br+AD4- critique but I hope it keeps the integrity of future sims for the +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-quot+ADsAKgAqACoAJg-quot+ADs- sim +ADw-br+AD4- fanatics. The guys that stay up at night just to get one more lap in and +ADw-br+AD4- devote alot of their time just to +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-quot+ADs-squeeze+ACY-quot+ADs- that extra 10th of a second outa a lap (some of these guys +ADw-br+AD4- know exactly what I'm talking about). +ADw-br+AD4- Its this fraternity that deserves a serious racing sim that doesnt take +ADw-br+AD4- shortcuts to meet deadlines and collect royalties. My comments are +ADw-br+AD4- directed to the game designers that read these post (we know your +ADw-br+AD4- whatching +ADw-br+AD4- and are probably posting replys under an alias). Isnt it amazing the way +ADw-br+AD4- the Microprose team members dont +ADw-br+AD4- ever reply, I mean comon their very aware of this newsgroup+ACE-. Anyway, I +ADw-br+AD4- dont mean to+ACoAKgAq-anyone off, but +ADw-br+AD4- Its for the quality of future sims in the future.

+ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4AJg-gt+ADs- +ACY-quot+ADs-It+ACY-quot+ADs- is not that simple. What is? +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-br+AD4APA-/div+AD4-The Question was simple not the work in designing the SIM. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-
I dont understand your meaning of +ACY-quot+ADs-well+ACY-quot+ADs-. 30fps is video speed and is +ADw-br+AD4- the hope of any virtual racing fanatic. +ADw-br+AD4- With p200/mill4meg/512 cache this game wont run 25fps with half graphics +ADw-br+AD4- loaded, so its hard to understand the gray area of +ACY-quot+ADs-well+ACY-quot+ADs-. Running the +ADw-br+AD4- game via modem cuts the already unaccepted framerate in half, so I +ADw-br+AD4- REALLY find it hard to believe for any serious SIM fanatic to agree with +ADw-br+AD4- that statement. GP1(in my opinion) was a game instead of a true sim. It +ADw-br+AD4- really wasnt that good in its time and i think people only excepted it +ADw-br+AD4- because it was the latest thing going for F1 fans. ICR1(to me) gave the +ADw-br+AD4- first real taste of a virtual racing sim. +ADw-br+AD4- If you ever study the response of interest between the 2 I think youll +ADw-br+AD4- find ICR1 in favor. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-
Your correct, no one is saying GP2 is pefect. The problem is no one is +ADw-br+AD4- saying its NOT perfect. (understand?) +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-
I find this very hard to believe and hope you tell me how you derived +ADw-br+AD4- upon this statement, Do you seriously +ADw-br+AD4- believe someone that has taken a career in this field and is not reading +ADw-br+AD4- what people have to say about his so +ADw-br+AD4- called +ACY-quot+ADs-masterpiece+ACY-quot+ADs-? +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4AJg-nbsp+ADs-and NO-ONE is going to listen to a +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-
I have to admit I started off on the wrong foot with my posts and will +ADw-br+AD4- be the first one to admit it. +ADw-br+AD4- I have said things that I DO regret to a certain extent. I want people +ADw-br+AD4- to listen to someone that demands +ADw-br+AD4- the best and hopefully they will to, Its hard to listen to insult, my +ADw-br+AD4- apology. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-
None taken John, I hope their are no hard feelings because I enjoy +ADw-br+AD4- anyone who shares a love for this hobby +ADw-br+AD4- and I may sometimes get +ACY-quot+ADs-heated+ACY-quot+ADs-, so please understand that Im just a +ADw-br+AD4- perfectionist and I give the best, +ADw-br+AD4- but I also demand the best+ACE- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- +ACY-nbsp+ADs- -David Gary +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-Feel free to check out the fastest Monster Truck Madness team on the +ADw-br+AD4- net.

If I was Geoff Crammond I would tell the lot of them to get stuffed. A +ADw-br+AD4- patch is being made so we all just have to be patient and wait a bit. +ADw-br+AD4- Jeez ok so GP2 is not 100+ACU- just yet but it is close. We should give +ADw-br+AD4- the bloke a fair go as he was rushed by the masses to release it +ADw-br+AD4- before he really wanted to. I dont think he will do it again as the +ADw-br+AD4- back stabbing is rather sad to see. He is only human and I for one +ADw-br+AD4- think he has done heaps for the racing sims and appeciate his work. +ADw-br+AD4- Microprose are working on the speed at this moment to make sure it is +ADw-br+AD4- fast enough over a network. With all the back lash they wont realese +ADw-br+AD4- it till its 100+ACU- right and who could blame them.. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-Shane Lansky +ADw-br+AD4-

+ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADsAJg-gt+ADs-That is not what the writer was implying. Microprose advertised +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADsAJg-gt+ADs-something and did not deliver the full adverti+ACoAKgAq-t. As he said...How +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADsAJg-gt+ADs-would you like to buy a colour T.V and find out it is black and white +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADsAJg-gt+ADs-to be told that a fix for it will be available when ever. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4AJg-gt+ADsAJg-quot+ADs-Fix+ACY-quot+ADs-? What has to be fixed? +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-You bought a racing sim, got THE top racing sim on the market, and there +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs-was no fix or update promised. The writer was implying that GP2 was some +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs-sort of unfinished product, the +ACY-quot+ADs-black and white TV+ACY-quot+ADs- of the analogy, and +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs-that is from where my +ACY-quot+ADs-valve model+ACY-quot+ADs- came from. Since GP2 is, IMO, +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs-superior to anything else on the market by now, it stands to reason that +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs-they must be lower than the black and white TV on the racing-sim +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs-evolutionary scale. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4AJg-gt+ADs-I'd love to see your NICAM, widescreen HDTV model, but it's not +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-gt+ADs-available. GP2 poor? Compared to what? +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-br+AD4APA-/div+AD4-No I think you read what I said wrong. I like the sim and play it to +ADw-br+AD4- death. i dont give a shit if a patch is made or not. The point is they +ADw-br+AD4- said IPX net work in the mags Wet weather and more. That is not in the +ADw-br+AD4- game at the moment. Now i have e-mailed microprose and they said YES a +ADw-br+AD4- patch is coming out about December so the game is not yet finished. +ADw-br+AD4- All in all i am satisfied with GP2 and some are not. I think some have +ADw-br+AD4- gone over the top in voicing there opinions but thats that. I trust +ADw-br+AD4- microprose as they have been good in the past and I have faith they +ADw-br+AD4- will deliver in the end. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-Shane Lansky +ADw-br+AD4-

They didn+AGA-t promise it wouldn+AGA-t be from another game either +ADs--) +ACY-nbsp+ADs-They +ADw-br+AD4- haven+AGA-t conned anyone here. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-
IMHO it is the most realistic racing sim ever. AFAICT the only other +ADw-br+AD4- +ACY-quot+ADs-sim+ACY-quot+ADs- to have had rain was GP1. +ACY-nbsp+ADs-Even without rain GP2 is more +ADw-br+AD4- realistic than the original in terms of the model, graphics and sound. +ADw-br+AD4- People could argue that the changing weather in ICR2 make it more +ADw-br+AD4- realistic than GP2, but that is a matter of preference. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-
That depends on whether or not I trust the person who is doing the +ADw-br+AD4- selling +ADs--) +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-
Judging a person on a single statement or belief is rarely a very wise +ADw-br+AD4- choice. +ACY-nbsp+ADs-Everybody is entitled to an opinion, so just because you +ADw-br+AD4- think the sim is half assed doesn+AGA-t mean everybody is inclined to +ADw-br+AD4- agree with you. +ACY-nbsp+ADs-I was pointing out that the decisions about damage +ADw-br+AD4- etc were made so that the game would appeal to a wider market and not +ADw-br+AD4- just a small core of hardened racing fans. +ACY-nbsp+ADs-I personally would have +ADw-br+AD4- prefered more realism in this area, but MPS know I+AGA-m not the only +ADw-br+AD4- person they have to convince to buy their software. +ACY-nbsp+ADs-When the GP1 was +ADw-br+AD4- released hardly anybody I knew could run it with full detail, now most +ADw-br+AD4- can run it in a DOS box, full detail, 25 FPS and get around 35+ACU- PO at +ADw-br+AD4- worst. +ACY-nbsp+ADs-I doubt if it wil be too long before the hardware is available +ADw-br+AD4- to run most of the graphics options. Isn+AGA-t this just a little common +ADw-br+AD4- sense from GC in not limiting the grahics to what will run on current +ADw-br+AD4- spec. machines? +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-
The +AF8-joke+AF8- was meant to point out that a lot of people who read the +ADw-br+AD4- newsgroups aren+AGA-t interested in listening to what others have to say, +ADw-br+AD4- merely trying to shout the loudest. +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-
Please take a little care when you reply to a post. +ACY-nbsp+ADs-The above would +ADw-br+AD4- indicate that I originally posted the +ACY-quot+ADs-David Gary Quote+ACY-quot+ADs-, which isn+AGA-t +ADw-br+AD4- the case. +ADw-br+AD4- If you dislike the product so much don+AGA-t play it, take it back to the +ADw-br+AD4- store where you purchased it and see if you can get it swapped or +ADw-br+AD4- refunded. +ACY-nbsp+ADs-If you can+AGA-t maybe you+AGA-ll be a little more careful with +ADw-br+AD4- your money in the future +ADs--) +ADw-br+AD4- +ADw-p+AD4-Mark +ADw-br+AD4- +AF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBfAF8AXwBf- +ADw-br+AD4-
