Hi folks, any comments on the newly released rF2 screenies? I'm really looking forward to the next SRT episode, I hope we'll get some live rF2 action then. I also love the idea of including a historic F1 mod with rF2 and some Endurance type cars! Cheers, Uwe

Without a big team I'm not expecting miracles, but I'm still looking forward to this greatly. After all, it'll be a very important release for the simming world. Appealing to the "GPL2" crowd seems like a good way of keeping interest high. It certainly works for me. :-) Andrew McP

Wonder if they put the West Brothers on to paint some car haulers?

I'd prefer not to know that they've long since given up and are now happily married with seven kids between them and no time to write code or paint virtual lorries. I still cling to the hope that one day they'll just appear from nowhere with an amazing working product. :-) And no, I don't believe in fairies and Father Christmas. I just have a /tiny/ hint of optimism buried deep in my cynical old soul. Only a hint though. A very, very small one. A pico-hint. The kind of hint you might just be able to detect using the LHC (if it's working). Andrew McP

Can't say much going by those low res screenshots. Looks ok though from what I can see.
I must be getting old, not only do I remember the whole West debaucle but I just realized I Kill Filter people instantly, without a thought, just by seeing their screen name... don't even have to read the comments. GR

3 months ago they were still at it, although perhaps not in full flight. So my hope is also to one day be surprised and see it on a shelf. :) --- news://freenews.netfront.net/ - complaints: [email hidden] ---

Even if they released it tomorrow I wouldn't buy it. Their reputation is now dirt.

I hope no one took the West Bros. comment seriously. The guys are first class clowns as far as sim racing goes.
