Wait yesterday i saw a post that said that in 2 days the embargo is lifted and youtubers will be able to finally share gameplay so does that mean the car list will also be reveal within the next 2 to 3 days?

The only thing Nathan mentioned yesterday is that the car and track list should be revealed within "7 working days". It could coincide with the embargo but if not, we only have to wait one more week.

Hello Faultier
Yeah, track selection in pc2 was very fine, can't wait for the car- and tracklist
And for cars...i hope that one of my all times favourite race cars will be added...DTM Opel Calibra and the Ferrari 550 or 575 would be a dream...

Calibra

would fit to their dtm lineup.
We will see

Knockhill confirmed to return. Good.

 

[DesertPenguin]

Is that supposed to be a joke?

 

[c172fccc]

Is that supposed to be a joke?

I don’t see the issue. They’re just saying that preorders are coming soon using words related to racing.

 

[Chikane_GTR]

Is that supposed to be a joke?

Yeah things like this is whats getting on my nerves why do they even post this? Why not just post when they do open pre orders


But it doesn't surprise me the overall marketing for this game as been a joke anyway.

"Follow our social media pages to be in first place when more details arrive."

That's a slap in the face of the fans that have actually been paying attention and waiting for details.

What? They’re just saying to follow their social media because that’s where they’ll announce the preorders. I still don’t see the issue.

It’s "first place" as in first to see the news, it’s not a "exclusive news" thing.

Maybe you haven't been here long. They've said they would post info on a weekly basis and we haven't seen a single follow up on that.

Pls stop creating the next drama... Thx...

Are you talking to me or SMS?

The tweet is only talking about the preorders. Been following every day since the announcement, I’ve criticized their marketing, still don’t see what’s the issue with today’s tweet.

All pc2 tracks are supposed to be back. All of them I mean. And then I thought there was..., six new or some more?, can't recall somebody correct please. They are definitely playing the overwhelming ammount of tracks (because it is true lets be honest, no other game or sim features not even a half of what pc2 already did). Let's see whether this times pays off or not.

One of these new better be Sebring btw...

I assume minus the Karting tracks, as Karts have been removed.

I bet we’ve lost more tracks. They are now announcing 120 track layouts on the official website instead of the 140 as before.

[Scaff]

Looks good.

 

[MroczMR]

Yeah. It really do looks good. it will be good sim for sprint races.

 

[Jezza819]

That's super fantastic but it's another solo run. What I want to see is a full grid game play video without all of the hokey "hit this target win a prize" stuff. That would get my hopes up greatly.

Save your typing, they complain after every single post.

New footage looks excellent, particularly enjoying the sounds, really nice external sounds there.

Please do forgive me for not being a good little boy and calling that pointless post on there twitter out

Interestingly I’ve just checked my PC2 trophies and at least 11% of people have created and used a pit strategy, which is more than have used photo mode.

Really didn’t think it would be that way around, or that photo mode use was that low.

Announcing that the preorders are coming really soon and posting a new screenshot is pointless? Ok.

 

[Faultier]

Looks like the PR Team finally woke up

Wasn't the photomode absolutely horrible to use anyway? I seem to remember it being janky and frustrating.

Its pointless cause it tells me nothing new.

The game is less then a month from release so no duh pre orders are coming why not include the date for when pre order are going live or better yet why not wait and post when the pre order go live.

 

[warp9engage]

Yeah. It really do looks good. it will be good sim for sprint races.

This should have made the marketing, through this angle, more obvious, I would say.

Don't forget to deduct achievement/trophy hunters from that stat.

I'd argue making a post about a game company announcing impending preorders for their game that everyone's been complaining about a lack of preorder information for is a little less pointless than a post complaining about that post. 💡

Good to hear that the car and track lists are close. Looking forward to seeing the new goodies on the car list and hopefully confirmation of what we expect track wise.
