★ Landmark threadSierra announces NASCAR Racing 2003 Season as series finale

Colin Harris posted Sierra's announcement of NASCAR Racing 2003 Season, due in February 2003 and described as the finale of Papyrus's NASCAR franchise. Readers worried it signalled the end of Papyrus or that EA had secured exclusive NASCAR rights, while others hoped Papyrus would move on to a CART sim or GPL2; Sierra's statement about exploring new ideas on multiple platforms fuelled speculation about consoles. Some recalled that key staff such as Charlie Heath and Ed Martin had already left.

Every EA title that I have gotten has lousy multiplay. Even on my lan here at home the games stutter and warp. The Nascar Thunder title, coming out for the pc, has a max of 16 for a server.

Also from the Papy press release...."the team is ready to expand their expertise and explore new ideas for the racing genre on multiple gaming platforms." Looks like they'll be making racing games for the PS2 and XBox...what a waste.

maybe it means they'll ditch Nascar and make a Cart game? *passing out* -- Gunnar #31 SUCKS#015 Tupperware MC#002 DoD#0x1B DoDRT#003 DoD:CT#4,8 Kibo�: 2 "a poster is a human being or the software equivalent"

I'm with you Colin. I bought NASCAR 3 knowing full well that I would run it about 20 minutes and then go back to GPL. Unfortunately, I only played with it about 10 minutes but I don't care. I like to think that in some small way I helped contribute to the release of N4, which I raced extensively, and N2002 that I now race almost exclusively. You gotta dance with who brung ya'.

>"frederickson" <[email hidden]> wrote > Sierra has always been a trashy company, papy should have known better to > begin with. That's a much more important point. Funny all the EA trash talk by others here, when everything back in 1995 was set for Electronic Arts to acquire Papyrus. Like I often wrote here, EA were the first publisher of Papyrus, with Indy500: The Simulation, Nascar Racing 1, IndyCar Racing 2, all the track packs for N1/Icr1 and finally Road Rash. They were all published by EA. Finally, Sierra bought them (I remember that being announced on Papy's website, wow how time pass by). All the people here trashing EA, when we know how good the Jane's format was. -- -- Fran�ois M�nard <ymenard> -- http://www.ymenard.8m.com/ -- This announcement is brought to you by the Shimago-Dominguez Corporation - helping America into the New World...

If it means they will eventually (2004 at the earliest if you read between the lines) make a modern open wheeler sim with a high quality multiplayer component, how can that be bad news? That was conjectured in another thread and I think it makes a lot of sense. "Larry" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:Tcqd9.40704$[email hidden]...

Welll.... First, they need to confirm something before I believe it. And, the worst part, if what we are seeing is true there is a major case of ship-jumping going on there. Ya can't duplicate past successes without at least a major part of the original crew in place. -Larry "Haqsau" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:al68gg$1nusfo$[email hidden]...
