I will be re-evaluating the game's handling model after my recent findings. I will come back after testing this for a little bit with updated impressions.

Thanks for re-checking. You probably gave half of my XBOX league a mini-stroke bc I know a lot of them have Fanatec wheels haha.

He's on the XBOX. It doesn't allow screenshots to be saved to a flash drive like the PS3. Unless he has a PVR or wants to use a camera, I don't think he'll be able to.

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 Q&A and Impressions

No I have not done that yet. I am only on the fourth race of the season. It is my understanding the career mode is not going to progress. You basically play through a season, finish it, and then start another one.

Ugh this is what I've been hearing and fearing... I dunno who was saying earlier that you can play multiple consecutive seasons, but this is a real issue for me. I'm kind of on the fence w this game, and I think that limitation to "career mode" (it should really just be called "season mode") makes me not want to spend the 60 bucks

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 Q&A and Impressions

After about an hour racing with the Porsche Fanatec GT2 wheel, I can honestly say they that the sim to arcade ratio definitely goes up to about 75/25. The game feels much better now with the force feedback, the only thing is the wheel does not produce force feedback constantly.

I was told the same thing happens with this wheel in Nascar 09. I had no problems like that while playing Formula One, but for some reason this tends to happen after a run or if I pause the screen. I hope this can be fixed with a patch but for now when it works, it's AWESOME!

hey guys,

Anyone else experiencing freezing when playing this game? It has happened to me 3 times now..all while designing cars. I have yet to have any freezing while actually racing but the game has frozen 3 times while in car designer (and it sucks cause I lost my work each time)

just wondering if anyone else has seen this. trying to determine if its my xbox or the game.

thanks

I haven't but I really only designed one car. There will be a day one patch which could address any freezing issues, if there are any in game.

So how many consecutive seasons would you realistically do? They would have to have drivers retire which means you would be racing against jimmy john stock, which doesn't seem fun. Now if the game doesn't keep track of all your stats, and resets after a season, that to me is a problem.

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 Q&A and Impressions

I will ask AGAIN. Does the ps3 version of this game LOCK THE SAVE DATA TO THE CONSOLE. Can we back up our very important save data to a usb? I'm still shocked NO ONE has even asked or looked by now. Also many of you are claiming on 360 your able to get online. Ok, my question on that is, is it like Nascar 09 online were idiot jerks can easily KICK YOU from a room for just being faster and get pissed we are winning then kick us before the race is over? In Nascar 09 I have over 90 ranked wins BUT, due to KICKERS kicking me before I got to the finish line I have lost over 50 ranked wins. So please tell me its not as easy for jerks to kick us like GT5 and NASCAR 09

Relax, man. Bob is probably out with his wife today and will not be back online until later today or tomorrow. Chill with the caps.

Enjoying the look of the game so far. Can't wait to get my hands on a copy! How does the scheme unlocking go? Say if you're running the 24 do you first unlock the 24's extra liveries or are they just random unlocking?
