Come On Williams!
I'm still unable to log in. Is it me or are the rest of you having the same issue?
Has anyone managed to log in today?

I understand they can have issues, however for over 24hrs in not acceptable in this day and age.
As others have stated they should of had 2 farms, one for the old and one the new.
I also think that it was a huge error to change the back end at the same time as releasing Nords and the Mc Honda. They should have released that, so at least people who wanted it could have had their fix (I have no plans to buy either). And a week or so later released the new build.
Just pure bad strategy and planning imo. Anyway we wait

Not sure why you are suprised - this N-ring payment structure has been known for months...see the thread right below this one for instance!
The Nords alone is ~5 times larger than the majority of other track project...a massive undertaking and alot of development has gone into it. Having both tracks (and a myriad of layouts between the two) for $30 is not at all unreasonable...a bargain really.

Don't get me onto reasonable when I pay for cars, tracks, and subscription I take your point about it being a large track but they aren't the first to offer a laser scanned Nords and the other title that did do it first gave it away as part of a pack of cars:

I know it's unfair to comparison like this but it does rattle me somewhat that we pay for all the content, subscribe and the moment you stop your subscription you lose everything you've already paid for. [/moan] Feeling all emotional because I can't access my damn McLaren & Nords

I know how you feel, but if you get the black Friday bargain and the race discount each season it only costs like 8dollars a year. Admittedly not being able to access stuff offline is an issue but the online racing for me makes up for that.
I'm also curious as to what happens to the old f1 car now there is a new f1 car, is it just going to be deleted or will you still be able to race it?
can use old one in hosted, will be retired like many others that have been updated too a newer model

Makes me chuckle that the car they picked happens to be the worst McLaren car for decades
The fact that everyone will be driving the same car will cancel that out. I think that having to manage the ERS and DRS will also make for some interesting races.Makes me chuckle that the car they picked happens to be the worst McLaren car for decades
Service still down for me. I get the "down for maintenance" splashscreen.

Controlling content this way effectively eliminates piracy.
Steve Bird
Come On Williams!
It does but also robs you of what you have already paid for when you decide to remove your subscription. So in reality the content you pay for isn't yours, it's on hire until you stop your subscription. This is what I've never understood about iracing....you pay a subscription AND pay for the content. In my personal opinion (And it is just that, my opinion) It should be one or the other, not both.
Anyway, lets get the thread back on subject...Has anyone managed to get in yet as I saw on twitter that 'the site is going live, thank you for your patience"?

According to Steve Myers, Steam have released a new API early and they have just had to reboot two servers as they have gone "Nuts".
