I see this as an Very High Enthusiasm to taste the REAL DRIVING SIMULATOR Online Play...., (day one remember??, they save the completion of the game for later.., because most people want to FEEL the sensasion of realistic driving online play...)


I have a feeling online play will be a bloodfest, so I haven't played it D:


I bet that would be bored and blood thirst COD hardcore fans or kids who frustrate finishing the license then go f*cking around...

i've been doing some maths... and i think we could see 2M first day sales, easily.

"Naturally the common people don't want war: Neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in Germany. That is understood. But, after all, IT IS THE LEADERS of the country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is TELL THEM THEY ARE BEING ATTACKED, and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. IT WORKS THE SAME IN ANY COUNTRY."  --Hermann Goering, leading Nazi party member, at the Nuremberg War Crime Trials

They probably did not expect 500,000 people playing online

i have the game but didn't go on-line yet... but once you start the game he ask you to build your profile and to post it on-line (so that maybe count as a connection)... maybe they wasn't expecting 500K connections at once.

if they ship more copies than that is because they believe it will sell more than that... the problem is that maybe they didn't have the time to setup all the servers in time to handle the 500K connections...

So over 1M day one is very likely.



They are fucking retarded to think that one of the most anticipated games is going to sell and be played online at less than 500000 prepared slots on day one. I don't think even the creator himself understands how popular GT really is or how much people play online these days.



I'm guessing they figured not that many people would bother with online play the first day of release, mostly playing through the single player GT mode.  Just helps show how big online play has become.
