Nope! Free Steam key for the V16s will be redeemable form your user control panel once it is available.
Cheers!

Re: V16 edition steam

V6s are the first to come, that will happen before the tycoon mode is done. The rest will be added in a big content addition phase after that!
Bodies will be added with every bigger update.
Cheers!

Plans changed, as we realized V6s were more important and there was a lot of demand by our fans to get them sooner. So we listened.

Product development is not about being hypocritical. It's about coming up with different ideas and different solutions. Plans change - this has nothing to do with hypocrisy. I would think, if anything, you'd be happy about news like that. I know I am. (SHO here I come!)

By your definition, GM was "hypocritical", "teasing", and "trolling" for considering a mid-engine C7 Corvette, and then coming out with a front engine one. :roll:

Re: V16 edition steam

After being warned for the unacceptable behavior before I perma-banned the character today.

To Daffy's comment I would like to add a different view: I still think we SHOULD do I3s first, but do not have the means to do so because we only just got the sounds for V6 engines (don't have them for any other types yet). They are the most requested engine type too, so it seems logical to do V6s first instead under these circumstances. If we had the I3 sounds ready, they would go first because they will be an extreme point in the campaign balance.

So since you already have the sounds for the V6, then I assume you also already know what the angle of the V6 is going to be? I sure hope its the optimal 60 degrees?

Don't you mean 90°? And aren't we drifting into the sea of another topic now? :D

60, because a 90 v6 is just a v8 that someone stole a pair of cylinders from :p
