I read on www.alphaf1.com/gp3/ that Hasbro is gonna release an add-on
patch in November, incl. 1999 cars, drivers, tracks, and physics. What I
wanna know is if this is going to be a free, down-loadable patch, or is
it going to be something we have to buy. If it ain't free, who's gonna
be the guinea pig to buy it? How much do you think they'll charge? How
much would you pay for it? With all the "unofficial" add-ons out there
already for the 2000 season, I really don't think it's gonna be a big
hit...
Warlock!
I don't believe that it's free. GP 2.51, anyone?

One is free and all it does it fix the 2/3-axis problem and adds support for
up to 8 buttons on your controller.
The other is a 1999 upgrade. It includes the new track (Sepang) 1999 physics
(4 grooves instead of 3) and the most important features
are.................Safety car and REAL STOP AND GO PENALTIES!!!!!
Should have been in the first fucking release if you ask me (and even if you
don't).
Why would you buy this? cos GP4 isn;t out till mid 2001. Well roll on F1RC.
Well, if it's the 99 season, it won't be free because the Malaysia
track should also be included in it.
-Cheers!

hardcore, simmers, the people who still drive with all aids on. these are
the people who didn't buy GPL as it is too hardcore. the majority of these
people will be running the game un-modified, and will be grateful for the
patch. There may be a few dedicated followers from this newsgroup who will
buy the patch for that extra feature. lets just wait and see what the patch
involves.
