Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 Q&A and Impressions

Hey blue one other thing. Is the Green-White-Checkered, Yellow Line rule, and lucky dog rules all in the game?

I saw it at Bristol about 5 times today in 60 lap race only seen it a few times at other tracks.

if any of you guys are on 360 and want to race with me, my GT is MIZ2OU, i also am running an online league, 2 spots left.

I read earlier in the Q&A that getting airborne (blow-over) was difficult to do. Any success with this yet? Do cars get "light" or even lift a little when they turn around at high speeds? If cars do get airborne, is it just the player controlled car, or can AI get airborne as well?
The one unique thing EA Sports did achieve was allowing computer opponents to get airborne if you turned them around at a high enough speed. In Nascar Racing 2003 etc, only a player controlled car would experience the "lift" effect. Basically, how does Nascar 2011 go about the airborne effect?

BTW, Rocky Rococo is the best pizza ever!

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 Q&A and Impressions

Ok I am really concerned about this game. I don't play that much offline on nascar games. I love the online and competition it brings. I have a few questions.

1. Is Multiplayer activated yet? The next questions can be answered if this is a "yes"

2. How does it compare as to say Nascar 09. As bad as I hate EA Nascar Games its was really fun racing online. Well when the servers was running good.

3. Can you have "Fixed setups"?

4. What about hardcore mode. Is that a option?

5. Online Leagues?

Thats it. Thanks for all the insights to everyone here at OS and the forum members for giving me a insight to the game.

1.On the 360 yes it is.

2 Game wise cars drive million times better, online as of right now before any patches no online practice before a race. There are 0 AI cars in all modes. Only raced a 2 player race so cant say much else about it.
3.yes
4 I dont see a hardcode mode
5 there is no section set up for online leagues

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 Q&A and Impressions

Thanks alot mason. These ease my concerns. I wish there was a hardcore mode and online league, but maybe a patch later on.

So you can turn off all or the vast majority of that goofy HUD stuff? Also, a controller is better than a wheel? Are all of you on the Xbox? Hope that's not the case on the PS3.

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 Q&A and Impressions

has anyone made it past one full season in career mode yet? I'm really curious to see what happens after the last race of the year and how/if it transitions into 2012.

[Aggies7]

Anyone see a response on pit road. When you pit do you see all the teams working on the cars.

Yep, Blue confirmed that you can turn the HUD off. I'm pretty sure he said everything too.

Re: NASCAR The Game 2011 Q&A and Impressions

I have a HUGE very important question. I swear I will freaking scream if the LOCKED the save data to ps3 were we cant back it up on our usp drives. GT5 did that then the IDIOTS realized to unlock the save data in a patch. If they LOCKED THE SAVE DATA well Im not buying it. Im sick of stupid developers pulling that UNCALLED FOR CRAP. Whats the point of playing a game on a ps3 for weeks advancing to get a corrupted harddrive by random chance and all those hours invested in a game save WASTED. Oh I wont join PSN PLUS just to be force to pay money to save the copyproted save data online either. Thats stupid when all along these games should be LOCKED to our PSN accounts not the console. So please tell me they DIDNT system lock the save data cause Nascar 09 might of sucked but we could save our data ALL OF IT to any usb drive. I want this game I've been excited but this problem shot my mind just now in worry.

Nope you just see your team working on your car. I think you see the other cars on pit road but i'm not a 100% sure on that.
