    I agree and that's why I have a problem trusting British sales/marketing guys with anything they say/promise. They can be so full of sh*t most times.

    But really, what can we do? We can piss and moan about it being delayed yet again, but that doesn't acheive anything. We could make threatening phone calls to the developers, but I can't see that ending well, and it still won't be out any sooner. What I will get upset about though, is when it is released, if it doesn't live up to the hype. By the looks of it, it is looking to compete with GT6/AC, and as long as they don't go too arcade-y with the handling (from the look of some of Ryzza's vids, it's not) then I'll be a happy camper.

    @Clevohead we need some of those cement bags in here mate!!

    That's the thing though, because it has been delayed so much, it's not a matter of whether or not it will live up to the hype, but more of it NEEDS to.

    They can't hear you here...

    It'll be out soon, it's not like they cancelled it. But true Jono, with the delays, it has to be worth the wait.

    they might not hear us here, but public sentiment certainly isnt getting any better with widespread backlash across the internet.
    IF it gets delayed again (pls no, pls), then that will be massive LOL. uncharted 4 just got delayed, every game now is getting delayed so developers can give us a closer to "perfect" product. there is much evidence to suggest the extra time is not completely ironing out problems.

    Agree. GT6 still isn't finished and they had 5 years to do it. PCars has been in development for some time now on the PC, maybe they are delaying for the ps4 port? Only had 2 years give or take for that. The bloke running the fan page has been copping lots of flak for the delay too, misguided and unwarranted abuse. Poor bugger lol.

    I've always thought that delays had something to do with the xbone port, trying to achieve the 1080p@60fps unicorn on that rubbish box.

    N64 and Ad are right on the money; it's less an issue about having to wait and being angry / bitter (which does factor, naturally) but the real issue is that delayed games have a precedent of falling short of the additional expectations that delaying a game puts on.

    When has a seriously delayed game been a critical success? I'm not a gaming historian, but stuff like Watchdogs, GT5, Duke Nukem are big name examples of game delays that means the final product will NEVER hit the hype that has been built over an EXTENDED timeframe.

    There is SO much marketing videos and half reviews of Project CARS around... it's excessive at this point. The wait only gets longer.

    Watch this E3 trailer if you need further convincing:

    Too much hype - too early. Just like my three games I referenced above.

    Maybe it's an over reaction to the gt6 situation where PD has (and rightly so) copped a great deal of flak for releasing an unfinished game and not delivering features promised on release that never came, having things in the game that still don't work. Slightly Mad would probably have been aware of the :):):):) fight and the backlash against PD for its sins, and don't wish to be in the same boat, however they may have gone to the extreme to make sure it is totally finished, hopefully it's not for something as stupid as a moon buggy time trial.

    All I say is just wait till it comes, going into detail on speculation will make you crazy.

    Keep in mind its a crowd Funded and things are not going to be as smooth sailing as a studio game when it comes to release.

    32 car grids? That would be pretty hectic league nights!
    I hope that's the same across all platforms..
    And that weather looks epic.

    Yet another publication who has likened the game to the TOCA / V8 Supercars games of old. Yes please: that's the third time I think I've heard them mentioned in a preview. I would expect such comparisons to pop up in actual reviews, but to hear it in previews is great. On consoles, I still don't think there's a better touring car racer out there (I always have to mention that I don't own Autosport).

    Super keen - I'm having less doubts now.

    Nope that's only for PC. We're stuck with 16 on consoles however there's massive grids offline across all platforms.
