It's probably coming either as DLC or a new WMD Project after CARS or CARS2.I'm not really into drifting but no rally is disappointing. Why were those two forms dropped?

I feel I should share something with you guys: I've never not been a pCARS member
Andy Garton already knows about it and we seem to have an understanding if I screw up again, I'll be fully IP-banned.
Pft, the 'I play at my friend's house' was a classic.
Too bad their business thinking is not as exciting (and here you can include the majority of the WMD community).
Damn, BMW coming to everything!
Has anybody else noticed this recently? BMW seems really interested in advertising its cars in PC sims.
Damn, BMW coming to pCARS!

So hyped.
Yeah, that's even a bit odd as the Design Document did have both BTCC and DTM as possible series, but so far we've seen at least 2 BTCC cars and 0 DTM cars.The DTM car would've been nice, but I doubt they didn't try to acquire that one.
I don't think I would have replace anything with it.
Oh off course, silly me. Yeah that's a bit odd then, maybe the BTCC version could be eventually modified into the DTM car?1 DTM car, not licensed yet though.

DLC, doubtfull mod support, your regular big publisher kind of thinking in general. I have been over this many times. So let's not derail the thread yet another time.What do you mean?
BTW: 10 BMWs announced
http://www.wmdportal.com/projectnews/slightly-mad-studios-welcomes-bmw-to-project-cars/
It seems very unlikely that it will. And what kinds of cars would you be interested in? I think pCARS currently has the best lineup I've ever seen.

...hopefully Logitech might have a new G-series wheel out by then.
To you maybe, to me the list is extremely lacking, i dont see how this list is even close to Forza (absolut best and getting better) or even GT5 carlist. Thats why i want mods or a very good carlist.
Ferrari, Lamborghini and Mclaren are my favorite cars (and Porsche, Jaguar, Ascari, Bugatti, etc) i also love classic racing cars, i dont have much love for F1 cars except old one like the Tyrrel P34 (this game has a few interesting cars). In terms of racing series BPR 96 is my favorite by far.
At this point the only car i REALLY want from the list is the M1 PROCAR, the rest is in Forza.
Too bad about the cars right now, i game were i cant drive my favorites means little to me.
Oh...I was aware they were in some trouble, but wow, that's pretty bad :/As I am informed, Logitech stopped any development of new wheels in 2010 and in 2011 they've completely backed out of the wheel peripherals until further notice.
At this point they're only selling stocks, with majority of European stocks being transfered to US market in mid 2011.
I do not have any official links to back this up, but my source informed me about this in October 2011.
It's a racing game it's not a driving game. Comparing it to Forza or GT is irrelevant... Both those games' goal is to get as many production cars in as possible. That's what people want out of these game, to be able to drive the car they have sitting in their real life driveway. pCARS, iRacing or rFactor are racing gamings in the sense that they are there mostly to simulate and represent the professional racing happening around the world. The fact that pCARS has some "normal" production cars is just a nice little extra but it's not the focus of the game.
You could say that BUT Forza also have lots of race cars. And if we are talking about race cars theres not reason for not having a the Mclaren F1 GTR winner of Lemans, a Ferrari F40 GTE, a Diablo GT-R, a Murcielago SV-R or R-GT, a Ferrar 512M , a 330 P4 and several important racing Porsches.
I could make a big list of my favorite racing cars and see that this game lack most of them
Also i see you guys quite happy about the Huayra which is far from being a race car.
Yes Forza have a lot of race cars, but you can't do real race with practice, qualification and race more than 4 laps lol

Wrong!
You can do 5 laps.......
Seriously though, expecting a car count similar to Forza or GT is very wishful thinking.
A good amount of variation and quality is more than acceptable for a game like this imo..

Track selection is more important to me too.
Here is something wild... why we cant have BOTH? i dont think anyone would be sad if we get an F40 and some of the other cars i mentioned.

Yes, there iis: budget. I'm not saying we will not see them, but asking a car selection akin to Forza or GT is nuts. Those games have titanic budgets behind them.You could say that BUT Forza also have lots of race cars.

From back in I think April:I wonder if Pirelli knows about this...
'Horacio Pagani, founder and chief designer at Pagani Automobili said "With the support of our technical partners Mercedes-AMG, Brembo and Pirelli, our engineers are working closely with the physics engine developers to create the most realistic experience possible.”.'
Exactly, games like GT5 and Forza have at least 10 times the budget pCars have, I'm pretty sure even both Shifts had a whole lot bigger budget even though SMS' development method is very cost efficient.Yes, there iis: budget. I'm not saying we will not see them, but asking a car selection akin to Forza or GT is nuts. Those games have titanic budgets behind them.
I don't really care about the car selection as long as I can race true to life races.
That said, mod support should be a must. Mayebe not at launch, but maybe half a year later.
Since Project CARS and Test Drive Ferrari Racing Legends come from the same developer...
They probably used money from FRL to put towards pCARS? Ferrari probably commissioned them to do a Ferrari-only game?Since Project CARS and Test Drive Ferrari Racing Legends come from the same developer.. why they didnt make a deal for both games instead of wasting the license in the Test Drive?
Im sure if they ask people to pay for Ferrari people will pay.
If not then i hope for good mods.
