it is because the developers left the game and they only care about their racecraft thing. Victory has a lot of issues, so don't worry, we all have them

Hello guys,
unfortunately we're a really small team (8 people) and we can only focus on one game at a time, especially if that's the one that pays our bills.

We're really sorry for the inconveniences which sometimes occur, but the only support we can offer at the moment is the weekly restart of Victory servers. Hope this helps.

Today I managed to get into one race out of ten that I tried to get in to....the other nine tries to get into a race I got "cannot connect to server" errors.and lost by ten meters! Seeing that I, for one, prefer Victory over the (unfinished) Racecraft, perhaps when you reboot the servers you Developers could make sure the connections are good? I am no IT Pro, but I imagine it would not take more than a few hours to test said servers? Or maybe reboot twice a week? A month ago, there would be about thirty people racing at any one time...now the players number between eleven and up to twenty-six that are on. Mostly around ten people are on at one time.Not that it matters if we cannot connect to the servers to facilitate racing. This game is anything but dead as evidenced by the new level one plsyers that are driving for the first time. Devs, if you put a DLC with more stuff on Steam I am sure the sales would be brisk for at least a little while. I mean, remember when there was over two hundred people on at any one time? The amount of players is directly proportional to the players ability to race together. Again, players are leaving because they cannot connect to your servers. Please fix this "cannot connect to server" issue and don't turn Victory into a defeat.

Hello plasmajam,
we understand your considerations. The only issue is, as said before, we're a really small team which could stay focused only on one game. Victory, unfortunately, doesn't generate any revenue, so we need to focus on what is going to pay our bills.

Any hour of development spent on Victory means losing money for us. :( For a team which is so small and strapped on cash, hours are really precious.

Maybe, in the future, after releasing the full version of Racecraft, we'll get back to Victory, but this is something we can't do now, except for rebooting servers once in a while.

I accept your expanation. As I am a non-professional, I now understand a bit more the realities your team face daily. Thank you for the honest reply. Sincerely, PlasmaJam

Yes, I would say that Victory is in a league of it's own...so accessable, simple car set ups but very difficult to find the "perfect set up", awesome sense of speed, totally awesome players on the tracks and the amount of cars you can make and customize make Victory one of my all time racing favorites. Hey, Devs, how about shelving Racecraft for now and push out "Victory 2"? I would buy it in a heartbeat.

If you have 1 million Euros to give us and finance the development, we would do that in a heartbeat. :)

The "work around" I did was to start a public "test" server that quite a few people were able to get into and the racing was awesome. For some reason the connection issues are transient..they come and go but they are REALLY hanging around lately....I never know if I'm going to be able to join a certain race or server. Anyway, I got some good racing in, when I started my own MP race in-game. Hope this helps. PS: just don't turn collisions on, plz, I just painted my car.

Well, the racing is back to it's normal reliable state...at least for me, as of last night. Thanks, Devs! I got into every race I tried to get into. No connection errors at all! Unfortunately, I lost all the races i DID get into...eight in a row!
Devs!!! Your game is NOW making me lose all the races that I join...FIX IT!!!!
