So, About March 11th

[Steveyk]

I'm a little confused about this announcement. Is March the 11th a release date for "The Breach" part of the game or is it just a video with an overview about what is in the next release? I know some in the know might find the question odd but the vague "March 11" with an announcement of an overview of the next release has left me a little confused.

If it's the release of "The Breach" then I would like to know so I can book holiday and become obsessed with this game again.

There isn’t enough information to provide a definitive answer, but I believe it won’t be launched on the same day (Hope I'm wrong).

"Our next Wicked Inside Presentation is on March 11th with The Breach launching shortly after!"

What is confirmed, is that the next update, 'The Breach,' will be released between March 11 and April 18.

[DeadJericho]

reads like all youre getting is a deep dive of what the breach contains

[Stribbits]

March 11th is a "more information" day.

[big_pimouss]

March the 11th will be the day of the annoucement of the day of the relaese date of the trailer of the Breach , After that ( in month ) we will have a relase date .

The announcement sure made it sound like it was coming on the 11th but they are now saying that they haven't given a release date.

Another bait and switch.

I've not played the game in over 7 months and thought I might reinstall it today in expectation of "The Breach", coming in a weeks time, but now it doesn't seem like there's any point.

And I wouldn't believe anyone telling you a date at this point. The devs haven't stuck to anything they've said so far, but people keep on believing what they say.

That said, I'm sure if/when the Breach finally appears, it will probably be good, although from the list of things they've said they've changed, the game might be totally unrecognisable at that point.

No, they never said or hinted The Breach would release at March 11, it's misleading or dishonest to call it "bait and switch".
Call them slow, silent, bad communicators.. but they have been saying they will reveil the release for next update (The Breach) on March 11 - at the next Wicked Inside event - for a long time now...
I see how that is confusing. And it is "an annoucement of an annoucement", which is kinda meh... but, let's see at March 11 what they have in store for us.

Their wording is very vague but I think March the 11th is the date for their big reveal.

Also lol at: "From now on you can also expect more constant and frequent communication on all of our official channels leading up to and beyond this big beat."

Also lol at SGT Jesus on there fighting the good fight calling us all 'bozos' - you love to see it.

I stand by my words and i didnt refer to ALL of you, just the usual trolls saying the game is dead, its a scam, or yelling nonsense at the devs as soon as they post something, i know Mahler is not the best person in the world, but if you want devs to post here more often the least we can be is civil when voicing our criticism.

The game as a whole is not a scam.

The way they handle early access is for sure a scam, publisher struggle or not.
You can't shill that away.

What they offer right now is simply not worth the asking price of $40.
Path of Exile 2 charges under $30 and offers easily 5 times the amount of content.

NRFTW is one of the most unreasonably priced EA titles ever, while having only very little content and communication for almost one year now. And is probably forcing a third-party account requirement soon on Steam without disclosing it to the customer before buying. If that's not a scam, then what is ?

[Jim]

I don't care about the lack of content earlier on - When I bought EA to the original Assetto Corsa we had 1 track and 1 car, all good.
What Kunos then did was engage with the community and updated us often, rolling out patches and generally giving a crap what we thought, it was a good time watching the game come together and they are still seeing the rewards for that today, the game is fun, vibrant and doing well all these years later.
So essentially the exact opposite of what we have all been stuck with here lol.

Nobody is shilling anything, scamming is a crime, and as much as anyone here is pissed with the delays you have no evidence at all thats what they are doing or intend to do, so no, its not a scam, they had problems, you guys refuse to believe what is there for all to see, the selling of your publisher mid development is not a small thing so you can just discard it as an excuse.

But how much did Assetto Corsa cost with 1 track and 1 car ?
Certainly not $40.

The release version of Assetto Corsa is priced at $ 19.99.
It was released 2 month ago.

You are absolutely shilling.....even down to the point of calling people "bozos" , "trolls" and "♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥" , for simply criticizing the game and its development practices.

Getting personal and name-calling others for criticizing your favorite game is typical shill behavior.

Only if the legislation makes laws against it.
Which isn't always the case:

Selling people $25–50 skins in Fortnite, Apex, COD or Diablo 4 is absolutely a scam.
But it's not considered a crime, because Governments around the world arent making laws against it. Well, some of them do.

Turning young children into gambling addicts with lootbox mechanics and online gambling is absolutely a scam and should be criminal,but it isn't.

Selling people printer ink for $60 a cartridge with actual production costs of $0.23 a cartridge is absolutely a scam, but totally legal.

Charging $40 for such a little amount of content and no meaningful content for almost one year, despite the initial roadmap saying otherwise is a scam.

Problems or not.

If they can't deliver on their promises, because of publisher issues nobody is hindering them from refunding us.

No, I mean the OG Assetto, it came out in like 2013, it could well have been £40 though, I honestly don't remember.
My point is, after a few weeks we were up to like 10 cars, then that kept happening, constant updates, felt good, fun and vibrant. It was a real good EA experience.
