The island is so vast that it would take between 20 and 30 minutes to walk from one end to another (the most direct route) and 40 + minutes to go around.

 

Yay walking! Lol, hopefully it's meant to be drive around, and it takes 2hours 30mins for the 24hour cycle to complete, not bad :)

[Who]

Is that yellow car the new McLaren?

[Narwhal]

The end,this is it.I am buying this game.I wanted to hate it,but that McLaren,and SLR,I can't resist it.Damn.

[Penfold]

Woooooooo, I'm getting more excited each day now with all this new information and pictures.:excited::excited::excited::excited::excited:

[Eudemon]

That guy who wanted the TT-S/TT-RS is going to be hell to keep calm now. lol

[Who]

Carlist has been updated :D

[Eden1238]

That guy who wanted the TT-S/TT-RS is going to be hell to keep calm now. lol

 

I bet he will look like this when he see these news ->:monkeydance:

[Mb]

Schweet.

Peking to Paris ftw. :lol:

[T1M]

Holy cow :eek:

 

McLaren MP4-C12? :bananadance:

 

Looks amazing! Atleast the Pekin to Paris gives us a hint about SUVs, even if it a strange looking thing. :p

[Skepsis]

:DAwesome!:D

[Camel]

Holy cow :eek:

 

McLaren MP4-C12? :bananadance:

Strange looking is an understatement. :p

 

I hope that all the different magazine reviews have different cars to reveal. And thanks for the translation!

[CarMadMike]

One more thing to add, the Auction house that will be used to download DLCs will not feature when the game is released, It will come after (When the 1st DLC arrives I imagine).

 

And thanks mellors, np.

[Lambo Llama]

McLaren:drool:

But I dont like the sound of Club Exclusive or whatever...That gives me the feeling that I probably wont be getting one:( I prefer cars for all...

[oldi]

Audi TT-S? Hope there will be also a TT-RS:D

[CLR-GTR]

Is that yellow McLaren shot ingame?... If so, I'm about to loose it :D

 

All sounds very very cool. Now I really can't wait anymore.

[GTAMADDOG]

Day/Night cycle, weather, damage, indicators and car customisation?

 

They've already sold me the game.

[HOAX]

Aaamaaaziing!

 

Thanks + rep :)

[t.]

This is great, I'm liking the inclusion of multiple Spyker's and the new McLaren! :D

[Mielie_NL]

Thats all very good news, but servers for 8 players??

[HOAX]

Thats all very good news, but servers for 8 players??

 

It's 1 server for all players but A race is limited to 8 players, and you can create a server with up to 8 friends/people. I think.

 

 

EDIT: it's an thrilling thing to read that there will be turn-signals
