N3 Internet Play... Doesn't sound good :-(

I just read a review of N3 multiplayer via internet... unfortunately it sound like we may have very choppy/warped play. Please note that reviewer was using 56k modem and only tried racing with one other person... not a great sample to base conclusions on... but it is dissapointing. Otherwise, it sound good for singleplayer. I hope his findings are inconclusive. You can see it at [link lost in import] I'll wait and see what others find once released. -- Paul G Sent via Deja.com http://www.deja.com/ Share what you know. Learn what you don't.

I haven't completed my review of the final version yet, but my experience with the multiplayer over the Internet is much better than Jeff's. I also only have a 56k, but didn't witness anything like what he describes- I'll let you know when the review is done and published. -- Scott Moore Sports *** Network [link lost in import: /***.com] Offline Sim Racing Headquarters [link lost in import: /***.com]

Good to hear Scott! I was hoping that the "Operation Sports" experience was not representative. I look forward to your review.
