SCGT: lobby EA for "damage"!

6 posts by 5 people · 26 Mar 1999 - 27 Mar 1999

I received an email from Gjon Camaj, developer of SCGT, stating that they had a version of the game which showed car damage, but "EA's agreements prevent us from releasing this version". Perhaps a lobbying campaign for inclusion of this is warranted? Oh, if it hasn't already been mentioned, he told me that both the dual-axis fix and a gear indicate in the***pit are in the release version.

Why should we nag EA about getting visual damage? If you are going to nag someone, go nag the car companies like BMW and PANOZ and MERCEDES. THEY don't want to see their beautiful machines crushed up into little balls of metal so they asked not to have them in it. It isn't EAs fault for not having it in the game. And also, if you made the fastest racing sedan in the world, would you like to have a game model it getting damaged? Great marketing campaign.

But some of the companies allowed damage to be shown in TOCA and TOCA2, right? Personally, I wouldn't care. Gee, if you race a car and hit a brick wall, it gets damaged. Guess I wouldn't buy *that* car. Give me a break. Do you really believe that, or are you just arguing to read yourself in print?
I totally agree Zolli >>from releasing this version". Perhaps a lobbying campaign for inclusion of >>this is warranted? >I'd rather see half-decent FF support. >Joe
