  1. So how much time did you spend on that track :p Nice job, must've had almost all corners perfect there
  2. Changing hosts file is easy, people can do that themselves. I'll pay attention if someone can get a hold of the TDU server software but the odds of that happening are lower than the chance of TDU3
  3. I'd be with you if this was Eden, but these guys have been around long enough to know how this stuff works, plus they have a lot of "in-drawer" tech which they can efficiently plug in. Subscribe to the threads that show progress and they're moving very quickly. What do big companies with big marketing budgets do these days anyway that would make such a massive difference besides TV advertising? With all the hype the community is capable of building, excellent user-made trailers that don't take up dev time, and the many online blogs that report on all the news there's a decent amount of word of mouth. Just like I'm reporting on this forum about pCARS there are many doing similar on their communities as well. YouTube will help us out a fair bit. And then there are those who will just see the game on the shop shelf. The graphics are already top-notch for tracks that aren't brand new and the co-op features are somewhat revolutionary. Will see what happens. Distribution costs come out of revenue before profit is split up. Ian's been great so far and has earned plenty of trust, especially from the senior managers. A year's worth of development to go still so plenty of time for things to be built and polished.
  4. Please don't, other WMD members have access to it as well
  5. Any 5 digit return for my $2.5k is a good return for me. With 3m sales I'm looking at just under $23k, but I may yet buy another 1 or two manager packs to make that 34k or 43k. Then if they sell 5m that could be.. I don't know because someone keeps editing the file on me :p
  6. Try this: Microsoft SkyDrive - Access files anywhere. Create docs with free Office Web Apps. Then click Edit in Browser and sign in
  7. hehehe I like how pyrre is slowly catching up to my time but isn't posting his times until he beats me (assuming he will soon) :p Was a 6.44 before and now also a 6.38
  8. This is just for some fun, and my sums could be wrong, but I've made up this Excel profit calculator for you to play with. Just enter in how many million copies of the game you think will be sold, then enter the QTY for each tool pack you've purchased, then enter your exchange rate with the Euro and see what happens. Again if this moves you spend more money I won't be held responsible for the outcomes :) Feel free to share your estimations if you want Download here I sure hope it sells as good as NFS Shift did :lol:
  9. Well I should get it fairly early being GMT+10 but then I can't play til I get home, say around 7pm, which is still only 10am London time :)
  10. My calcs were off a bit but the end result is largely similar based on the current numbers. The more you spend, the more "shares" you own (pretend each 1 Euro is a share out of the total 3.75mil) and the more you will receive back. We could be looking at a 3.5x to 4x return for every million units sold if someone else's calculations are to be believed. But let's try to to get too caught up in that as it's all speculation and there's still a year of development to go before anyone buys anything. World could end or another much worse recession could hit in that time :p
  11. October 19, eh? Well at least I'll have one week to play it :)
  12. Last time I had a wristband on was many many years ago and it had a cool feature of being able to tell me what time it was
  13. I've just spent some time making an Excel file to work out potential returns for my "notInvestment" and the results are scary... good scary. :eeek: All depends on how many units are sold across the 4 platforms (PC, PS3, X360, Wii U) but if it's as good as NFS Shift then... I'd rather not say actually, but if you really want I could share the Excel file so you can work it all out for yourself.
  14. Have you watched this series of racing tuition videos? iRacing.com Driving School Chapter 2B: Vehicle Dynamics - YouTube

  15. Unless staff make an exception, and in this case I did (just like when other games are coming out i.e Forza Horizon thread). ;) Embed vimeo videos exactly the same way as youtube - {video}URL{/video}
  16. Fan-made video trailers will be posted here [media=vimeo]49717388[/media] [media=vimeo]46406757[/media] [media=vimeo]47730294[/media] [media=vimeo]47012065[/media] [media=vimeo]49895210[/media] Will start off with these and add more later
