Time the pre-order cars were for everyone

nixonatorpx · 16-11-2006, 21:24

Come on Atari its time that the pre-order cars were made available for everyone. Its been nice driving my Lamborghini Gallardo, and thanks for the gift for my pre-order, but I think its now time that everyone got a chance to own one, and I got a chance to own the other pre-order cars

. I wanted to make this a poll but not sure how

I've managed to get them all, but totally agree, to add a poll i think you press forum controls at the top of the page

Thanks for the tip

DRIVEITLIKEUSTOLEIT · 16-11-2006, 21:49

Why can't we trade ANY downloadable car in trade?

nixonatorpx · 16-11-2006, 21:54

i think its becase the person buying won't have been able to download the car so their games doesn't have the car

BTW how did you manage to get all the cars? I though the codes would only work once

I pre ordered from game, so got the LM, then in October every1 who pre ordered from game got the Spyker Spyder aswell. I was given the Gallardo by KristoferM (see signature) and won a Zonda in a competition!

I will upload pics once photo uploads are working...

Sh4dow_racer · 16-11-2006, 22:22

Totally agree. I didn't get any pre-order car (a part from the skyline and the audi for the first poor dl pack). I'd really like something new for the game since I lost interest in it, I haven't played for at least 3 weeks now :/

I lost the will and motivation to wait for the next dl pack anyway...AND I payed the high price for the game cause I live in Europe, not like the US people who got it for what, 30 bucks was it?

Don't mean to start moaning 'bout the whole dl pack release and all but still, kinda bored with all that's happening...

reece_sis · 16-11-2006, 22:57

I agree. We have been messed about

NEIL12345 · 17-11-2006, 13:01

I want them all I think atari should issue them as a free dlc for a limited period as compensation for the patch delay and the DLC delay.

N1PPER · 17-11-2006, 13:06

me too, but hey we cant control them, they are a law unto themselves(or summin like that)

momoghal · 17-11-2006, 14:17

Guys, the only way this would EVER happen is if people stopped playing the game altogether. Its a imple business technique, you add updates whenever interest becomes low to give it a bit of an injection. That lasts for however long and then when it dips again, you add another. Very common technique.

Only way around it is as I say, once the game becomes VERY old and nobody plays it that often anymore (maybe a couple of years, or when TDU2 comes out)) then maybe they'll offer all the DLC's for free.

(Just to clarify, in noway am I saying stop playing this game NOW and they'll give in and offer it to us free)

Sh4dow_racer · 17-11-2006, 15:06

This is exactly what happens! I'm sure I'm not the only one who finished the game in less than a week and bought every single car already in the game! So then you play for some time on live, it is actually pretty cool, but then my gold membership trial ended and I didn't see any reason to renew it because after more than 5000 miles traveled, there's not so much you can do in the game...plus there are like what, 3 pre-order car? A McLaren, a gallardo and a Zonda, I think they could really let the people get them...at least it would stop some of us (including me probably) to moan about the next dl pack

EDIT : youhou, 200 posts

Crazed_Dodgem · 17-11-2006, 16:11

personally i'm not fussed about them.

if there is a DLC pack with all 4 pre-order cars in it then there would only be room for another 3 (maybe 2!) brand new cars in the pack. and because cars arent sold individually people could be paying for cars they allready own.

not good!

the gallardo coupe isnt that fantastic anyway

give me an MGB or an Austin Mini Cooper over a gallardo i allready own any day

Not what I meant

@Lwsbrck : yeah, I know those pre-order cars ain't anything fantastic. But still, could be a nice gesture to make them available for each and everyone

Ok...I haven't been here for a long time. You guys still haven't got the downloadable cars yet? Is the trade up?

Trade works. But you can't trade pre-order cars.

I wouldn't mind seeing the Spyker Spyder available.
