I don't think it was delayed in the first place. When was it ever confirmed for a release for the rest of the world? Don't be suprised if this gets pushed back too:
It isn't confirmed, they just think they could release it by then.
On the other hand, if PD can release a stable demo on Thursday, why is it taking so long to finish the game? The development speed is worse than LFS's.
I don't think Rally Raid is that bad anyway. The big trucks are actually OK to drive. The only ones I use are the 1993 Pajero and the Bowler Wildcat and they handle pretty well. At least that aren't as bad as the buggies and trophy trucks. *shivers*
There is also 1 bad unlockable car: Dallenbach Special. Yes, it is a good car, but that is the problem; it is too good. It has a huge power and handling advantage over the other Trailblazer cars so everyone who unlocks it will drive it online.
Yeah, stock car racing is fun on Shift (Offline that is. Just use a Works Murcielargo or Zonda R online!) It is the only way I can enjoy the slow cars like the Focus ST, Civic Si and the... umm.... Scirocco.
If that was online, then what do you expect? Of course people are going to race like that on a game which has opponents. That is what I like about DiRT 2's rally/trailblazer online. The competitors are either staged 10 secs after the car before or ghost cars.
If that was offline, then you could have just crashed the AI at Turn 1!
I like the way you can tune cars in Nitto 1320 Legends, with loads of parts for each car and thinking carefully about what you do you your car, but putting that into a sim like LFS, and that could be very complicated.
Next thing you know there is going to be a XRH - XR Hybride, or a UF that runs on electricity only!
btw, nice pic Flame, the Graphics hasn't come away too far, but the level of detailing sure has! Just goes to show you don't need a super computer to have great graphics.
Speaking of babies, I can't wait for One of his children to grow up and be a computer geek. They could either end up being trolls or leaking us with info to do with development.
Yeah, because DX10324439783425 makes everything so shiny and much better than the graphics consoles are capable of.
Behind all the DX whatever number they come up with next, you still know you are just playing the same game? If you want to brag about who has the best graphics, have fun spending alot of money and wasting time upgrading your graphics card each year.
