Drift 19...

[d0x360]

So this game was originally called Drift 19. Then they changed it during early access to drift 21 for obvious reasons.

So it's been in development for roughly 3 years at this point and it's barely a working "game"

Devs... Is this game actually going to get finished or is this just some kinda test bed for things going in the companies 50 other yearly racing games?

I just don't get how so many games can be pumped out a year but this one game is taking longer than Forza Horizon 5 in terms of development time.

So based on what I can see, This development team only has 24 employees. Turn 10 who makes Forza Horizon has 141 employees.

Missing the point entirely but that's fine. Also the dev team has constantly changed in size because they move people around from game to game so team size goes anywhere from 18 to 120.

Even with just 24 people this should be nearly finished based on the time they had. At the very LEAST the drift mechanics, physics, vehicles and a couple tracks should be 100% complete. They already had the engine so they didn't need to worry about that they just needed to make a drift game.

Jesus I've seen single developers turn out more and higher quality work than what they have managed here... It's a joke. Eventually the game will have another name change and it will be Drift 23.

I don't see how anyone can defend this. It's horrible in essentially every way.

I'm not following. I get what you are saying but the game is released?, And.now it's a matter of tweaks, content updates bugs and the like.

So, what are you talking about?

Maybe the production took so long, because in addition to games, the developer is also developing a tool for the unreal engine called Gear Shift. The tool is to be based on real car driving measurements. From what I associate, this project will last a while ... at least that's not their last word :-)
