Get it right Kevin Ed never said Nascar Heat will be locked at 8, it will have 8 day of release atleast and possibly more and more going in a later patch. Robert "Kevin Anderson" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:oPWk5.9386$[email hidden]...

I've got a really good feeling about this one. Never seen such wonderful graphics - if gameplay matches it, then we're in for a treat. not long to wait now

Ed Martin has stated that there will multiplayer support for a minimum of 8. But the most recent builds seem to indicate much better! :-) The nay sayers may be pleasantly surprised! Pete "Andre Warringa" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...

I hope. And then you guys can thank us for bitching and making a big deal about it. Because if no one complained they might not have changed it. -- Kevin Anderson [email hidden] --------------------------------------------------- "Pete" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:ARWk5.126632$[email hidden]... > Ed Martin has stated that there will multiplayer support > for a minimum of 8.

No you are absolutely, wrong! They have been working hard on this aspect of the game all along but didn't want to get people hopes up and then not be able to deliver. The numbers able to play and quality are very much going to be hardware and bandwidth dependant. If everyone one is on 56k I have no idea how many will be able to play online. But if you are on a lan things may be very good indeed. I might suggest you wait for the games release before trashing it because one aspect albeit an important one might not reflect the opinion you want to hear. I also strongly suspect Hasbro/MGI will continue to explore ways to make the game even better after its release. They have indicated they will be putting up race servers and I doubt they will be looking to host 8 player races! I would rather a Producer under estimate their MP capability and then come out with something much better, than one telling us it will support 43 with no disclaimers and giving us false hope.

That's 8 more that GP3! and people still say GP3 is a good game! NOT! Crammond is in the dark ages of sims still. Multiplayer is the present and future. I only really buy racing games if they have good multiplayer. Nascar3 and GPL have spoiled me so if a new game doesn't come close to them than it stays at the store.

Did you try N3 multiplayer game? There are many warping drivers. The warping and feeling of one of large number make almost all players to abandon their responsibility. Everyone easily mess and give up their race, so you can more easily win the race if you could survive. gee. =( That mood dominate GPL VROC too. So I think 8 players may be enough to makeup responsibility.

What version of Nascar3 and GPL have you been playing????????? Or (yes I know I shouldn't start a sentence with or) what modem do YOU have????? I race 19 people over the internet all the time on VROC with little or no warp and race up to 30 with little or no warp on Nascar3. Granted I have a cable modem but at least it's possible with a good connection. Trying to blaim the problem on people who are immature and don't finnish a race is ludicrus. Get a real connection and enjoy online racing. Vintook "Yoshi Minami" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8n1rq0$1r99$[email hidden]...

You know, you're more right than you think, Yoshi. I always did my best to be a considerate, smart driver on TEN. Most of the time, I succeeded. Sometimes I didn't. Everyone has their moments :) But, on WON with N3, especially with all the nutcases at Talladega, about 2/3 of the way through a race (if you make it that far) if you aren't careful you will tend to take on the mentality of the rest of the field you are racing with. On TEN, I would rather have just let up and finished undamaged. On N3/WON, I just don't get that feeling. I believe with 100% conviction that the ONLY WAY this will ever change with ANY on-line racing scernio is if there is 100% accountability, and that means a full credentials/skill tracking/ranking system that EVERYONE is bound to and applies to every race run. Without exception. This is what made TEN great. No online racing system will ever be truly great without it. Not even one that has zero warp factor. The human factor has to be 'managed'. I would gladly go back to paying $20 a month for system like TEN. -Larry "Yoshi Minami" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:8n1rq0$1r99$[email hidden]...

Warp really isn't the problem. Well, it is sometimes, but most of the time Warp is simply the excuse, not the reality. Everytime I see someone type "Sorry, Warp" I want to yell BULLSHIT! -Larry "Vintook" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:x57l5.44793$t%[email hidden]... > What version of Nascar3 and GPL have you been playing?????????
