N-Rev just an excuse... (Long message)

6 posts by 5 people · 03 Mar 1999 - 22 Mar 1999

After reading TONS of posts, it seems to me that all the N-Rev supporters are claiming to support this game just so that way they*** with simmers. Its seems there are three specific people doing think these guys are as funny as hell in their postings. ANYTIME they post about N-Rev, they think they have to mention "hard-core sim racing freaks" in their posts. Now, my question is, why is this neccesary? Let's get something straight here. First of all, read the name of this newgroup: rec.autos.SIMULATORS Now, I don't care if you post in here about NFSIII or N-Rev, and I should hope that none of the sim-fans in here should either. But to come in here and deliberately insult sim enthusiasts is completely uncalled for. Awhile back in rmolony's posting entitled "Nascar Rev... Another Cool Thing..." he stated something I'd like to address.. If you don't need a flame from us, then leave the friggin' newsgroup! You know the name of this newsgroup says SIMULATORS. If you come in here, post insulting comments to sim racers, then expect flames. Simple as that. Second thing. I hear several remarks about how sim-fans started the whole war, making accusations that just because it doesn't come under a Papy label, then its worth crap. You know, there are other companies that sim-fans enjoy. Bethesda has a really good drag racing sim in Burnout, while Motorsports Simulations Inc. looks really promising with AMA Superbike. So before you think we're all Papyrus worshipping people, do a little research. Another misconception, that sim-fans picked apart N-Rev simply because it was in opposition to the Papy NASCAR series. For the most part, I believe what got sim-fans started on discecting N-Rev was EA's bold claims on a "complex, hard core simulation". With those claims, we will pick apart any game released, to see if they match their claims, or if they don't. I, for one, was really hoping EA had created a complex sim, just because of the fact it offered more variety to the market, but I was dissapointed. Third, and finally...N-Rev isn't even as much fun as an arcade game. I have heard this several times from people who are strictly arcade racers. Now, in my opinion, here's what makes up a good arcade racing game. First, an obvious sensation of speed, which has been proven that N-Rev lacks. Second, a good challenge that's somewhat difficult, yet anyone can beat. And seeing some race reports on the EA bulletin board, you can't have a challenge when the AI crashes every other lap. With all that out of the way...it leaves me to wonder if you N-Rev supporters actually enjoy your game as much as you claim. You can enjoy a game or sim without insulting people on a newsgroup. If you like it so much, then spend more time playing it instead of agitating people. right ahead...but please refrain from taking cheap shots at me like a couple of you did in the past. You will receive no response to that as I don't feel there is a need to reply to flames that have nothing to do with the subject. (Yeah, I was wondering, Mister "EA Rules!", what me getting laid has to do with the subject at hand?) Well, I'm finished. Did I type all of that? :) Travis

Probably cause you're a loser and all you do is play computer games all day, and cause you probably have no life and don't get out much so the only thing you're good at is one stupid game. Oh my mom wants me to tell you, you're a loser and .....EA Sports Rules !

wow what a response, again you come here insulting people because of their views on a game. Oh yeah and you say he is good at one stupid game? You arent good at any games, except maybe nascar rev which i wouldnt even give it a status of game, maybe slide show with a little bit of input, kinda like the little hand held games or gameboy, but why should i even insult gameboy, at least their games are playable and you can finish without the artificial intelegence killing each other. Oh well, im tired of fighting immature young people. Its just getting old. Go ahaid, say something like yo mama, I dont care, you are all the same and all are just as annoying so go read your alt.shows.barney and leave us real men to talk about our sims.
