You still have historical championship to play.

 

If codies are going into esports requiring connection is needed. It's 2019 FFS stop comparing it to CMR 2.0

For career mode, it’s no need 😡

i want to play that solo mode when i want and offline.

Wait, it's 2019...?

As well, thinking about it:

If race.net is already collapsing in Early Access, what will happen in 4 days at release?

At this point I really wouldn't be surprised to see a loooooooot of red ratings on Steam and metacritic in a few days......

Aussi, en y réfléchissant:

Si race.net est déjà en train de s'effondrer dans l'accès anticipé, que se passera-t-il dans 4 jours à compter de la publication?

À ce stade, je ne serais vraiment pas surpris de voir une loooooooot de notes rouges sur Steam et métacritiques dans quelques jours ......

Hope they will repair this for the 26 for me and hope for you, must soon as they can!

Oh for Christ's sake, Racenet is not early access. Its a system they have used for a few years now, this is effectively the first day of release of a new game on the system. Give it some damn time to sort itself out. It is a new game with a load of new users in a short space of time, how many games have ZERO issues with online connectivity on day 1?

I'm not saying this system is good. The fact that it completely stops you playing career is not a good design but just wait for a response. They are probably working flatout to get the problems fixed.

They could give a word about that.

But hey, it's okay, take your time

[JackKey 23]

Dirt Rally 2.0 is in early access..... it also says so in the store page.

not race.net....

before you get angry better reread again.

 

All I am saying is:

- if race.net is already collapsing right now -> it will most likely collapse on release day

and if people can't play -> there will be many downvotes

this is just whats going to happen - an objective truth

no emotions involved in this post

it will be downvoted as hell if its not up to good on day 1

-> if it gets downvoted as hell, less people will buy it

-> this means this design choice was a bad decision by codemasters

Dirt Rally 2.0 isn't in early access either, where are you reading this? What store page?

Also, maybe you should read your own comment again.

If its collapsing now, they have time to sort it for release day. If people downvote it to hell on day 1, then they should really evaluate their impatience rather than just throw toys out of the pram.

stop trying be perfectly correct in a multi-language forum...  dude

I am just saying what is going to happen

I love codemasters, I will always buy their games

but that will not stop them from getting bad reputation....

You said I should read again, I did, you said something different the second time. Its not my fault if you asked me to double check and I did?

[JackKey 23]

btw: its written IN THE STORE

That isn't the same as actual early access, it just means that Deluxe Edition players get to to play it 4 days earlier than the full release.

If they are following ubisoft policies with mandatory connections i will stop to buy their games 😡😡

[JackKey 23]

Obviously, but its called officially Early Access.

So it gets called early access because it is early acces - even if it is not what epople commonly understand by early access because they have been used to understand it as something else.

More and more publisher sell "early acces" nowadays as premium...

sort itself out? Really?

I think some sort of compensation for Deluxe buyers is in place here!

Wow, the entitlement is strong. Why should you get compensation because you haven't played immediately? What compensation would you like?

[MarcoMaas 60]

something with we spend our hard earned cash on it? 10 Euro's more than the normal version, at least

This has nothing to do with "entitlement" - get off your high horse there.

I'm on MarcoMaas side here.

I bought it to play it early. This chance is now gone, since I only had time today. Thanks for nothing then.

Don't tell me I get early access if I don't get (full) early access. That's false advertising.

 

It wouldn't all be that bad if at least someone gave us a word of sorry. But nothing from CM (that I read).

You're telling me you spent an extra £15 just to play 4 days early? Not for the DLC that is coming out down the line? It is entitlement, its not CM fault that today is the only day you can play.

[Ruehling 13]

God almighty.

You only read what you want to read, so there is absolutely no reason to discuss further....

I don't care for the extra Porsche or whatever comes with it.

 

And IT IS CMs fault, who's would it be that RaceNet is mandatory (and down)?!

This is my last post in your way, it simply doesn't make sense talking to you.

[SirPhilMcKraken 279]

Ok mate, the feeling is mutual.

Partly yes.

 

Stop swaying away from the fact that it is just bad design to require an internet connection for single play. For multiplayer and online challenges I totally get it, but for single player carreer it is just bad design.

Having racenet unavailable makes this all to clear to all of us except you.

[Ruehling 13]

Playing online without Racenet really wouldn't make much sense.

I bought Dirt Rally in Early Access too as soon as it came out, I don't even know if there were RaceNet problems, I just played the career at the beginning.

It wen't really smooth back then.

[JackKey 23]

dirt rally 1 had no issues from the very start

because single player was single player and multiplayer was multiplayer

no single player gamers that flooded the multiplayer-servers

[Ruehling 13]

Just one more thing:

It was said I bought the deluxe edition for the DLC.

Guess what else is unavailable when RaceNet is down.........yes, the garage.
