Project CARS 2 Announced, Project CARS Will Continue Receiving Updates

Seems like the people (buyers & supporters of PCars1) are voicing their opinions -- yikers. You can't just do your fanbase like this without some sort of backlash.

I disagree with all this anger and complaining; they haven't stopped supporting PC and will continue to do so. A portion of the SMS team is beginning work on the next edition.

All sports games and annual shooters do this. If you like the series and genre, you should be excited that the game is selling so well the next one can be planned for.

It doesn't list a release time frame, I doubt it'll come out in 16 (probably 17) but you never know.

Saw on the official forums it's slated for a 2017 release. They're aiming for 2 year cycles for the series. That's fine by me. Initially I thought it was going to be 2016 and didn't like the idea.

But every other year is perfectly fine by me.

So basically, Project CARS was the beta, and this will be the real game.

If what people are stumbling across on message boards is true (that the game won't be out til 2017 or later), then the developers need to make that clear in their press release ... and they still have not. It's just bad PR, and it's completely tone-def to a community that has just purchased your game a mere 6 weeks ago.

This is truth if you've played the Xbox One version of Project Cars, which was released practically in beta.

Io For me the biggest weakness in Project Cars is the lack of cars. No point introducing new disciplines then just throwing in a handful of cars to choose from. With it being announced that Forza 6 will include 450+ cars this issue will become even more of a concern if not addressed.
Despite the assurances I doubt we're going to see too much support or additional content for the existing game.
