I wonder what that means. Looking at that list it becomes quite obvious SH4 hit the market a wee bit earlier than it should have. But all is well and good. A patch is on the way.

Im assuming it has to do with crew member efficency in relation to there "training".

Oh thank you JESUS!!

Sorry guys,(ubisoft) we are dumping this peace of sh@t and stating from scatch w/ a new engine....:rotfl:

stuntcow · 03-21-07, 12:28 PM

Day after release, right on time..... For all the crying, it would seem that the dev team have been working on a patch since the sim went gold. Thank you to them that have not givin up on SH4 as some of the "Fans" have....

I notice a miles instead of KM, but strangely not a feet instead of metres. otherwise, it's a step in the right direction alright.

....and a new chassis, new muffler, new tires and a sleeker aerodynamic appearance. However, not all is changed as we are keeping the cool looking hood ornament and racing stripes!

Thanks for the information on the upcoming patch! I am still waiting patiently for my copy of the game, maybe the patch will be available in time so that when I get my game I can patch to 1.1 right away!

You're right and it doesn't surprise me that they're that fast. SH devs always seemed very dedicated and caring about their product.

I wish some of the 'fans' would give the game a chance before thy start slamming it.

Given up? It's a not a race lad . Some people simply don't want to part with their cash until they know it's worth it, other are pragmatists such as myself, and some are just fans who want it regardless.
