Well, give us a quick review when you can.

Also, did you ever get your merch order? (I got some hint that that sight might be shipping from India!!)

Impressions so far?

I havent had a chance to fire it up yet. I haven't seen hide nor hare of the merchandise. I figured it would get here when it got here. On top of everything else our major mail hub in Kansas City that everything routes through is so backed up it still has two items I ordered three weeks ago rolling around that hub somewhere that I ordered from ebay. I do not have high expectations for prompt delivery of anything right now.

I have a short review. The opening was pretty sweet, via the opening music. It allows you to set up whatever peripherals are detected and it detected my setup but was buggy when trying to set some buttons. the ones on my wheel were not recognized even though the wheel and pedals were. The beginning car was a Fiat 500 Abarth and we all know how sweet a car that is to drive. Not a lot is implemented yet. But you can tell there is going to be a lot of choices to be made and thats always a good thing. There was only one track and I didn't get to race because the pedals set up backwards. push down was cut throttle and release brake and un pushed was throttle and brake. There was a button there to reverse axis but it didn't work. It did operate on screen but no function yet. The sounds from the car (when I did start on track) are excellent. very realistic. It's like you are there. I see a lot of promise. As they implement more things Ill update.

Sim Magic released a new patch to work with AC EVO. I patched last night and started it up after we raced. It works now. The feeling was very much like AC but with the latest graphics. If this is an early beta it bodes well for the game. With a current release date of fall 2025 it's got some promise.
