I want my Rt 35 now....

I agree with pretty much everything here, really annoyed at the missing specs in general but like you said street spec should be available on every car. The lack of traction is definitely a big issue with the game. I hate how on high level cars, perf spec especially, how hitting the nitrous while driving in a straight line causes wheelspin no matter what speed you are going. I don't think there is any car on earth that has enough torque to create wheelspin at 200 mph. Also my 458 oversteers on any corner with even the slightest amount of throttle, pretty uncharacteristic of a Ferrari. Been enjoying the game the more I play it, but there is a lot of stuff that needs to be addressed, and sadly I don't think much of it will be.

Sounds like the same issue I'm having, do you get kicked to the main menu when you finish a faction mission?

Yeah that's my guess, pretty unimpressive that Ubisoft would pull that move. Especially since you can drive some of the missing specs in the story missions. I think it's a little underhanded to make us wait 5 months for content that has been finished since before day 1.

Yeah, once you have enough power to loose control of it feels a lot more engaging.

Unfortunately that's an issue I've been having. I pre-ordered the gold edition on psn and while all the bonuses and season pass are showing up as registered to my account, I have none of the stuff ingame, no street editions or season pass cars. After playing the beta through 4 times with the cars available at the start I was looking forward starting out with some new cars, but I'm already to the point now where I can just buy the full versions of those cars anyway. On top of that, for most of today I couldn't even play the game because of some issue retrieving my save data from ubisoft. Also whenever I finish a pvp event or faction mission I get disconnected from the game's servers before I can get the XP/Bucks/Rep for completing it. No pvp or faction missions also really limits the amount of money I can make right now. So for the moment, I am limited to just the story missions and whatever cars I gain access to normally and can afford only making about a grand per story mission. Anyways I'm having a very, very hard time trying to enjoy the game right now. I'm sure once/if all these issues are dealt with it will be fine, but if anyone is reading this who hasn't bought the game yet, based on the experience I've had I'd suggest you wait another couple weeks or so. As it is now the game just feels like it's in the next stage of beta testing.

Good lord that was impressive, some of the best CG I've ever seen. Trailer itself wasn't half bad either. Anyone ingame yet? I still have to wait til midnight for my PSN digital copy to unlock. :( Going to be a late night tonight.

I wondered how that was going to work, sounds like a pretty reasonable approach to the online aspect of the game all things considered.

The 427 is an engine yeah, one that was put in the MKIII Cobras. Don't know if Shelby ever put it in any other cars but the Cobra is mentioned in there so I'd say it'll be in the game in some form. Didn't even notice the SR mentioned there. Doesn't this game have enough Mustangs already?

Just took a look at the game's credits myself and noticed a couple things. The Zonda is mentioned by name, as well as the Shelby Cobra 427. I'm guessing the Cobra is either a roadster with a hardtop or a Daytona coupe, since we haven't seen any open top convertibles in the game. Either one's fine by me, gives us one more car to play with. Edit: Actually here's a pic from that same reddit post that shows that stuff.

"the credits also confirm the GT-R R35 to be making an appearance"

I'd hardly call those "patch notes". Still though, I'd be interested to see a full list of changes for the launch build of the game.

Don't forget we didn't have daily salaries in the betas like we will in the full game. And I'd imagine some of the faction missions will probably offer bigger rewards than what we've seen so far. Not sure which betas you've been in but the in the last console beta the rewards from pvp races were raised about 2k over the PC betas, dunno if it was the same in the 1st console beta but either way, I appreciated it.

Pretty sure I voted then posted. Maybe when Mercedes-Benz's vote was switched mine disappeared with his. Mercedes are known for electrical issues after all. :D

Weird, when I voted there was only one other vote, so maybe things hadn't quite "initialized" yet. I thought maybe I never hit submit too but there was no option for me to vote today. Maybe I'm just trying to inflate the positive votes on here to make the game look better mwahahahaha.
