If you're talking about the game itself and not the DLC, that's really sad... 3-4 months is plenty of time to have this game FINISHED.

^it of course does concern the game. I assume it doesn't warrant another topic in your mind... on that basis, GT6 should only have one thread as those (almost? 
) all concerns the same game?
Joking aside, it is a good idea to steer this delay convo to the specific thread. Just to make all of our lives easier.

Nothing agains't Wii U owners. But still wonder why SMS/WMD even bother with Wii U at all? It's such a waste of time building for that console which is slightly better than a PS3/XBox with and different target audience. If only they have Mario Kart features than it will make sense. 
Anyway, I would love to hear from someone with the latest builds on PC list a few dot point they've noticed is still far from finish and as a result lead to such outcome of the delay to 2015. Eg. AI. Or maybe quote from the official WMD as many of us here aren't members. Thanks in advance.

^even if I really understand the question/request of listing the "to do" list here. It's not why we are involved, and it would only generate unnecessary noise everywhere. We are allowed(& agreed) to be there to aid the game to be as good as it can be and doing those kind of lists outside of the dev forum achieves nothing on that front.

Yea I'm slightly upset, but I sort of expected it. People keep complaining about unfinished things, and in this case, maybe this will provide me more time to find a Logitech g27 replacement/solution without losing an arm and a leg.

I have read a few articles about VR, but will pCARS be in 3D on the PS4?
If graphics and support for FFB wheels top your list of priorities, sure, the Wii U version of Project CARS isn't worth your time. I understand that those two things are cornerstones of the PC racing sim community, but like you said, it's a different audience. As with all console versions, information is limited, but SMS have promised the same game with the same features, same cars, same tracks, same dynamic systems, same options, and the same career mode. They've hinted at exclusive GamePad features (perhaps you could dial in a pit stop request on the touchscreen between corners?), there might be support for off-TV play (undervalued among those who have never tried it), and online multiplayer will be free.Nothing agains't Wii U owners.

I don't know how big the Wii U audience for this game will be. No one really knows. The heads at SMS think it's an experiment worth trying; unlike any other platform, they have no competition. As a Nintendo fan who has never really wanted a Playstation/Xbox for anything but racing games, it's a win for me. I don't care about the latest Bungie shooter or cinematic QTE action movie-game. I like Mario games and I like hardcore racing simulators.

Shame to hear about the delay, but in a way it's a good thing for me; less likely to procrastinate from uni work over winter now, more time to save up for a PS4, and most importantly more time to keep asking inane questions in this thread

I am well aware of that, what I'm saying is that previously if they would release on November, they couldn't get all tracks licensed in time so we would be playing on Eifelwald instead of Nurburgring for example. Licensing tracks currently in game is a different thing than building all new tracks now.
Yes, I forgot to post it yesterday.

True but I'm pretty sure that SMS intends to get most, if not all tracks licensed. You already understood what I am saying so there is no need to keep this going.

If a tiny dev like Kunos can not only license but also laser scan the Nordschleife during 2014 (in parallel to laser scans by Turn10 and iRacing), then SMS should be able to license it at least, I'd say the new owners are beings more accommodating than ever... And the pCARS model is good so that's not the problem.
I'm assuming that the relatively negative reactions on GTP are simply because this site has a slightly larger Playstation core. Due to the lack of racing games on the PS4, pCARS has been the compelling reason for many to look at upgrading: I nearly went that route myself, despite having a PC which plays pCARS fine. Remove the reason and purchases around it are suddenly 4-5 months too early. Easy to understand frustration there!

I find it slightly ironic that a website dedicated to Gran Turismo is the one to have relatively negative reactions.
You'd think GT players of all people would be the ones who would understand best the dangers of releasing games before they're finished. (And the dangers of assuming that release dates are settled, for that matter.) How many people bought themselves a PS3 for GT5 only to find themselves waiting, and waiting, and waiting?
Given that nearly a year later we're still waiting for major features in GT6 and that Driveclub has just released with a hugely cut down feature set with big stuff to be added later, I'm quite happy that pCARS is taking a different strategy.
However, I understand the frustration that some people are facing (seriously people, just get a gaming PC, you'll thank yourself later) so I'm hoping to be able to contribute some videos and such in the near future so that at least others can watch along with how the final stages are coming.

Yeah, I'm not seeing the same level of pCARS frustration on WMD or RD but those sites are mostly PC racers. On one hand you would think the console crowd would be more understanding because of GT as you stated, but on the other hand that could be a contributor to the frustration - again they have to wait.
The PC crowd has a lot of sim racers to choose from reducing the void for something to race. pCARS will be released when it's finished which I think is a good thing, I can wait.

Well said.
I guess the main difference here is that there's a big line of communication, in the form of all the WMD members that exist. For those who don't know, these are all the people who bought in early and have access to the game.
To all the people who are feeling angry, we WMD members cannot help you get the game any faster. But we can help to reassure you that things are happening, and we can feed you information about what's going on.
There are things that they and I cannot tell you, because we have been asked not to. But people can ask whatever they like and I'm happy to try and answer. If the questions are silly, you may get a silly answer depending on how much I've had to drink, but I'll do my best.

Yes they used tell us about licensing but stupid members leaked it. So we don't get told. The Aston Martin was one they were going to announce it on a Monday but people leaked on the week ends so no stuff like licensing they don't tell us. However they might tell those that have the manger package.
