Image Space Incorporated Making a NASCAR Game?

[thatmotorfreak]

I can only dream...

I'm not willing to bet on NASCAR Heat 2 or support a particular online-only MMO with an awful business model. NR2003 on the other hand is enough, but we're pretty much stuck with 2003 physics and rules.

I'd be all for it, but I'm very sure that these are in reference to the Pro versions made for the teams and not consumer products. We've gotten a lot of off-brand ovals for RF2 and such that'd be a lot of work to make from scratch and were clearly rebadged versions of existing, well-replicated real-world tracks, so it wouldn't be a new market for them in the slightest.

An historic cars based SIM...?
NASCAR license is sold
F1 one too
GT same?
Historic...seems logical...or not?

Yes like GT legends , however getting the Licence's from the car makers is hard , their mindset is locked in the present so a totally Historical based sim has little marketing for selling there current cars , That has always been the sticking point for any Sim developer, I have little doubt that old race cars selling games I think if they were not in the current crop of sim's then sales would be a lot lower.
The Car company's will always put current before this past History's its crappy stick point & why we have so many modding teams making such items.

I Would rather there be an Indycar "Career" style game. But Excited to see what ISI are working on either way.

 

[St3fan]

Didn't the ISI folks who worked on contents move to Studio397? If those folks are solely focusing on current RF2 I would have even less interest in ISI's new stuff.

Rather than a NASCAR license, it could be "ARCA Simracing 2"...

I say bring back Papyrus for Nascar Racing 2018.

Papyrus doesnt exists anymore. Some employees are now the creators of iRacing.

Theres no Indycar game actually. It would be an option. Or the WEC. A WEC Sim would be interesting, more if its eveloped by ISI

Indycar would be interesting for the tracks alone.

ISI physics and FFB + historic based sim? COUNT ME IN!

Just play any NASCAR game, and just use the ARCA brakes. It's practically the same thing.

 

[Matt Orr]

Pretty big conclusion to come from when there is no actual evidence to even hint at speculation. Hell, I've heard far more interesting things that hint at "not rF3" being IndyCar related... Who knows.

I wouldn't be surprised if they don't even know.

Nothing wrong with ARCA, I like to watch it. Almost everytime spectacular crashes etc to keep fans happy.

If they can beat IRacing, My hats off to them......

 

[melanieuk]

I rate paul Jeffrey as the best writer on Race Department, but this is fake news, seems like he has been reading the same nonsense prc used as a story.
Don't care what ISI has up their sleeve, they have no credibility, and seem to cant finish a project they start, just confused why people still talk of them as if they are some sort of leading developer, leading in the way of unfinished none innovative none progressive products maybe.

 

[Boby Kim]

And after a few years...sell it so others can upgrade it to dx 16?

 

[xnorb]

As ISI had a very strong push towards oval racing before handing rF2 over, this wouldn't even surprise.

 

[spaskis]

My bet is for an offroad open sim. It is the natural step towards a complete racing sim.
Rally, loors ...

 

[wajdi]

Any news about ISI and their “ not rfactor3” next project?!
Are they still operative?
