Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 Q&A and Impressions

Guess mine didn't post...here it is again. Thanks in advance

I've read through every post and didn't see this question, which for those of us who'll be in leagues may want to know.
Like in NASCAR 09, when you go online to race, is there an option to practice with those in the room before the race to test setups, practice lines, etc...?
I heard for NTG 11, you go online, create a race, load your setups, qualify and race...no practice. I hope this isn't true. Thanks

Thanks Blue for checking out the set-ups. That is great news. Just like cautions breed cautions...answers to questions lead to more questions.

I was wondering how temperature would affect the car. In other words do you think we will have to make a different setup for Bristol day and Bristol night for example?

I remember reading the devs saying they had to take surface temps out.

No idea yet, as I was able to go online, but it could not create a lobby. All it said was "error-cannot create lobby ar this time" or something likte that

Ah, probably because the game's not out yet. Didn't think of that. Thanks Blue. Guess I'll just have to wait and see unless you get lucky to join a race somehow

As far as right now goes, It has definitely answered the bell in almost every category.

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 Q&A and Impressions

When there are smaller crashes, like say 3 or 4 cars not the Big One, does the damage happen in real time or does it not show up until after the race resumes?

Do they still have the 'old' front bumper of the cars, or did they update them to the actual ones? It's essentially my deciding factor right now. The splitter on last year's cars were ugly as sin.

The new front ends and new point system plus this years schedule will come in a update in the next couple of months.

Thanks. I think I'll hold off and wait for the update and then see what I think of it. For now, maybe I'll just hold back and save the money.
