J-F someone needs to get releasing news to the established sites, similar to Eurogamer. Let them know about the competitions and that people can play these for free (then get the racing bug and buy some content). I haven't tried it since I have a wheel, but you need a really good controller set up so that as many punters as possible can dive in and have fun, all would surely help the player base. Accessibility is key.
Just looked at Steam Charts... Last 30 days... Average players: 325.1 Peak players: 863 Both all-time highs.
Yes great to see R3E continuing to grow. I am creeping up on 100 hours since they started supporting VR and can't get enough. Sector 3 keep up the great work.
the more audience, the more criticism so keep pushing -> you're on the right way! plenty things to do anyway
Agree with this...especially when the new MP ranking system comes out...that can be your snyper shot ace in the hole if done well should attract a ton of the already established sim racers playing other sims.
wow... seems that the update was very welcome for alot of the R3E-Users... today Raceroom reached a new top on Steamcharts.com with 886 active players today on 20:00 o'clock CET
It seems many people like the GT3 overhaul. I've certainly had some very nice MP races the past couple days with cars that have some major differences in their driving style. Makes it quite interesting when you are battling a car that is a beast in the twisty bits of a track, but you out power it on the high speed sections.
Hmm, you should still be able to join any server you see in the server browser even if it doesnt report a ping value. What happens when you try to join a server that doesnt show a ping value?
Hmm, that doesnt sound right, so something must be going wrong. I know that for me, I would say that not even 50% of the servers show me a ping value but I can still join any of them. If you wouldnt mind trying this whenever it is convenient... Would you mind launching the game, going into the MP server list, and try to join a server that does not have a ping value? Once it shows that error message, exit the game. Then if you could attach your game log and MWTransport log. They are listed by date and time, so it should be apparent which is the correct log. Those are located in: My Documents / my games / SimBin / RaceRoom Racing Experience / User Data / logs. I'll share those with the devs and perhaps they will be able to see something useful in them.
Cheers, I'll toss these over to the devs to see if they can find anything in them. May not be immediately since there was just an update and lots going on behind the scenes to correct some outstanding issues, but they will be looked at.
Also getting "Server not responding" quite often. Some servers works fine but some doesn't. But yes been alot of ppl playing this weekend. I've had a blast and some really good MP races.
We need to get this over 1000. Set a date and time for as many forum members to go online as possible?
I get the server not respond issue here and there, on a few servers. But, i logged on last night, sunday night in the US...must have been 100 players on line!! Usually its more like 5 or 6! Interesting.....
It's getting closer to the 1000. Today Raceroom reached a new Max with 910 players... so maybe we can hit the 1000 in the next days?
