They should have used rF2 imho...

 

[headder]

They should have used rF2 imho...

Or GT Sport since it is official FIA racing game...

 

[mantasisg]

FIA is arcade.

Why do I get the feeling Race Department are going to be heavily biased and not ask the real questions here. I would expect at least one AI question, in particular the lack of focus in this area.

Time will tell I guess. But if the developer responds with yet again another generic and political answer, I will lost interest entirely.

 

[Marcel Offermans]

Why do I get the feeling Race Department are going to be heavily biased and not ask the real questions here.

As you probably know, last week I agreed to do an interview for which the whole community could submit questions. That resulted in over 100 questions which I will be answering this upcoming week. I will assure you I will be open and honest on everything I know, and tell you when I can't because of various reasons. Now this talk and drive was a bit of a spontaneous idea, so let's see what Paul has prepared. I am sure he will keep one eye on the road and the other on the live chat, so feel free to jump in and try to get his attention!

The real questions are being asked on your own forum, Marcel. Why do they not get the privilege of hearing your voice?

Dude, why so unreasonably aggressive?

Seriously uncalled for. Especially this bit "Why do I get the feeling Race Department are going to be heavily biased". If that's how you feel, then leave.

Prepared? Lol, nope, prepared is far from the reality of this thing! It's going to be super chilled out, doing some driving and chatting (well as chilled as you can be having a conversation while driving LM without any prior practice!)

 

[thepharcyde]

Cannot wait for Le Man's, hoping it's this weekend else 'No Buy'

No pressure @Marcel Offermans

 

[Emery]

Pity I'll miss this live as I'm leaving for a weekend autox at that hour (12:30p west coast usa). Got a 3.5 hr drive ahead of me and won't return until Sunday evening.

I know, but sometimes its fun to view things live. LeMans (plus other upcoming material), I feel, is big enough to warrant live viewing. Have to put it out of my mind during my competition!

I can't wait for this track. S397 version of Sebring is the best in sim racing and I'm sure this will be no different. As a guy that mostly plays single player in rf2 I'm hoping the AI handle this track a little better than Sebring, they are a little strange there. Anyway, I'll love buying and be playing this for many hours...

Paul, you don't need to be prepared, as you have only to believe in your natural talent
