Motorsport Manager Preview - Tracks

Paul Jeffrey · Nov 4, 2016

The launch of Motorsport Manager is just around the corner. To help ease the wait a nice batch of track preview images have been released by the studio, showing off the impressive visual presentation in game and the variety of locations brought to the title by the developers.

Sadly Motorsport Manager does not benefit from an official licence for any specific series or track location, however with an inventive naming plan and designs heavily inspired by many real world international venues, it is not hard to spot what track the locations are based on judging by the shots released by the studio.

With a launch due in just six days time, Motorsport Manager will look to tackle the exceptionally popular sports management genre and will no doubt be hoping to emulate the success of the legendary Football Manager series of games, another franchise supported by MM's official publishing partner, SEGA Entertainment Europe.

Already having tasted success with a slimed down mobile version of the title, it will be very exciting to see how Motorsport Manager is received by racing and management fans upon its release on the 10th of this month. Watch this space...

This looks really impressive and I'm definitely going to buy it, great visuals and who doesn't wanna manage their own motorsports team?

Nox · Nov 4, 2016

Have my eye on this one; I'll see what the reviews say first though.

Ricoow · Nov 4, 2016

Pre-order here, from what ive seen its a great play. Still addicted to the mobile version

I am so extremely skeptical about unlicensed manager games, will be interesting to see how it is received.

kmanitou81 · Nov 4, 2016

I prefer these fantasy tracks, honestly. This is so cute.

MrRandom287 · Nov 5, 2016

The mobile version was surprisingly good.

And I have to agree. Fantasy tracks can be more interesting than the actual tracks.

I also still wonder how much will be mod-able. I know that it has access to the steam workshop, but so does F1 2016

Very interested in this game. Something different than racing itself.

Ricoow · Nov 5, 2016

I know what Im doing Thursday night

Paul Bennett · Nov 6, 2016

Have the mobile version have n't played in a while gets a bit repetitive, the PC version looks a bit more intuitive. Will wait out till the Xmas sale time or key site deals, there's a pattern forming here

Was looking forward to adding this to my Macbook pro for portable gaming when am out and bored but gpu specs does not support Intel Integrated Graphics Cards and you need active internet connection.

Cant see myself playing this at home when i have ams, pcars, assetto,rf2,re3....Look forward to the reviews though.

its not good if you have intel graphics, hopefully that supports it too

Dux · Nov 7, 2016

Guys i have this game bought from other country where it was cheaper. One friend of mine has had the game for a much lower price and i took it from him, as a gift, he has send it to me.
He did that but upon receiving it was stated by Steam that the game was restricted and that now i cannot play it.

I have literally thrown away 18$ (what was the price of the game) for nothing and have a copy of the game that i cannot use.

Anyone for a solution please. Is there anyone who would like to take it from me instead Steam?

Most steam games are locked to a region, depending where it was bought. If you tell me where your friend lives, I can find out in which countries it's playable

Pre-order done. Game is release on Steam (few hours before the official launch time

)

PS : it downloads, maybe not launchable...

MrRandom287 · Nov 9, 2016

There was a tweet from them saying that they decided to release it a little early.

Vincent.C · Nov 10, 2016

Do you have this issue on Steam ?

The game can be installed and launched but it does appear on steam profil (no entry in steam games, no display of playing time, success, exchangable cards).
Commonly, steam archived the 3 last played games on steam profil but when I launch Motorsport Manager, steam display only the 2 last games (Motosport create an invisible area).

Yes, I do. But I can still play the game so it's not a huge problem
