Hype for weekly update?!

Well, somewhere this month, within 2 weeks we'll keep turnin' left.....

 

Ahh yes, the Track and Field DLC

 

If you setup your car properly you'll be turning right on the straights and turning left on the turns.

 

Unlike last time, this time around I think the hype might be well deserved.

 

What do you mean by "last time"? When was the hype not deserved? V1.3?

Also, coming from you, this makes me think that Reiza might have done something for multiplayer...

 

First car to crash in the race triggers an npc running along the track stripping down to his tighty whiteys!

 

Pues, en mi opinión, solamente por las pistas de los hermanos no se deberia hypar.

However, really nice things are just around the corner now, I imagine. Don't read too much on my post though, as I'm almost as clueless of what is really coming as anyone.

 

Surely, turning left can only warrant half as much hype as turning both left and right?

 

If you think lap 1 / turn 1 at Monza in public multiplayer is bad....just wait for the ovals.

 

So that I stop losing sleep, I would happily pay money to a mod if they changed the title of this thread to 'monthly'.

 

You can simply read it as "weekly hype for update" instead, and sleep should become easier

 

You already can, ever since first release

 

hahaha, well, you dont know anything about my skillevel mate...

 

This weekend the new update COULD be released!
This weekend the new update MUST be released!
…because from now on I have 2 weeks holidays

 

Nah, Reiza's trends tell us its about 2 weeks from announcing the month long delay, and sometime next month they're release about 1/3rd of the DLC, and by Christmas we should get it all.

Still better than Derailing Valley 5 days before releasing a update going... "yeah we need at least 3-6 more months"

 

So I'm starting to suspect that Renato thinks he's within that timeframe as long as the July dev update arrives before late September...

 

Nah Reiza is just super busy working on 1.4.

 

Yeah I know. The plans for 1.4 as far as I know them are beyond ambitious and after a pretty decent run of meeting deadlines, I think this one might be too much to reach until the end of July - but as always it's gonna be somewhere along these lines, maybe around the first August weekend.

Which, of course, is absolutely fine if it then delivers.

I do think it'd be nice to at some point actually know what exactly to look forward to, because that's how you truly get the hype going. I'd even say that'd be worth another day of delay, but then again I'm not Reiza.

For example, I think the Argentinean track pack would have gained more traction if it hadn't just dropped unceremoniously in an RC build.

 

Agreed. Imo marketing is an area where Reiza fails at, teasing new content & features a few days before release would help get people hyped. They've already teased one of the tracks, it would be great if released teasers for the other tracks and cars at some point.
