    But the videos were made 1 week before release. Delays are common.

    That make sense. But i didn’t notice anything wrong with the gameplay in the over.gg stream. So, that make sense they delay the release.

    I've got an Steam Deck. The sim runs great (not with full graphics as in my main rig but they are not necessary specially considering the display size). While I prefer using my rig most of the time I am away from home and sometimes I launch AMS2 in my laptop. I see myself using the deck A LOT more since it is much more comfortable. I'm pretty happy. I am goint to try AMS1 also to see why joystick support is so acclaimed :)

    Not Reiza related, but the console is really nice to emulate old systems (I tried NES, SNES and PSX). I am also finally doing a career in Nascar Heat 5. The game is pretty good to use with a gamepad and the career system is really interesting, while actually relatively simple. I would be totally happy if AMS2 career mode implements something similar.

    I found 1.6 thread now shutdown very funny to watch unfold.

    People speculating about content, told not to speculate.
    People stop speculating, told not to go off topic.

    Thread shut down, critical comments from the developer.

    It’s great entertainment

    It was asked not to ask each day when 1.6 will release or making assumptions based on reddit "trust me bro" sources.
    The thread was barely touching any Development Update topics at this point - discussion about general announcement practice and the long wait for the game update can be done in general discussion topics just fine.

    "are we there yet", "200 pages let's go" or "1.6 not before christmas" may got some humorous note but it gets old pretty quickly, then comments that are purely created to get a rise out of others, it just adds bloat.

    Here in Chit-Chat the bloat, memes and heavy tonge in cheek is perfectly fine obviously, why it has been deviated to this place.

    Imagine a kind of loading bar that shows the estimated progress of the beta.

    Somewhere on the website for everyone to see.
    That should stop most of the “when, when, when” questions.

    Just an idea...:rolleyes:

    This isn't a bad idea at all to track progress with a fixed deadline for sure. The issue with such revisions (and other elements) like in the 1.6 dev is the factor of eventualities that influence the process in terms of estimated finish. So that loading bar could actually jump back a few percent suddenly :confused:

    Oh well it doesn't have to jump back but could stop for a long time. No one outside of the beta team would be able to notice this.

    When Renato gets tired of the same crap over and over, the Dev updates will stop, the beta users will be told to not comment about the beta (which should be the case anyways imho), and you will all know who to blame. Should I list the names of the people to blame? I think it's obvious by the daily posts from these particular users. It does get tiring and borders on obsessive behavior. There are doctors who can help you with that.

    We just want to know why he changes the plan after update part 2. We anticipate more information in few days. And why they can not inform us about what happen. I buy the ultimate version mostly because of imsa and 1.6 and the better physic(no slide corner) and the new gt3/hyper cars

    Since this is for general chit-chat I guess it doesn't bother anyone. Need advice. I'm encountering strong disapproval from people around me (parents mostly) when it comes to the topic of simracing. Mainly, I can't seem to get it through to them why I spent so much money (rig, pedals, dd wheelbase and wheelrim, sum around 1300€) on it in such a short time frame (3 months). My monthly expenses are non-existent. I don't smoke, I don't drink, I don't go out, I don't wear fancy clothes. College is also going smoothly. How could I approach a conversation next time so that they understand me better? Have any of you been in the same situation? How did you resolve this issue?

    Easy answer. Tell them to mind their own business.

    Tell them that this is way cheaper than actual racing maybe 10x less expensive
