exactly. i thought that with the extra monhts, they would hav eruna beta to stress test the server since the daly was for the social aspects of the game. Failing to work at launch is quite embarassing due to teh extra time they had to fix any issues. 

yea and  they said that those who can play online that it going ot eb rough during that time. i hope they do not break it even more. 

By the time they fix this people will forget about this game. Luckily it didn't meta at like 95. At least its not a killer app that none can play

exactly . If it was 95 and had this, the shit storm would be even more lol. if they had released the free edition during this problem, i would imagine their sales for the full game wouldn't be to high. On a positive note, i heard the game already sold 1 million copies which is good for the developer.

Online still only works half for me. No challenges, sometimes the multiplayer race menu loads. It's getting a little better every day, still a ways to go. Luckily I'm having loads of fun with the single player, lvl 43 already, can't get enough of racing the awesome tracks. The 5 locations are all great and very different, keeps it fun. Night time racing is perfect. It's one of those games where you get stuck in the loop of 1 more time, just 1 more race, ok 1 more.

Another day in this evolving thread: Does the story continue to be ridiculous?

Played some online, man its really so much more fun running live opponents.

Lol they really screwd the pooch on this one, poor EV studios....can you recover or are you the next Zipper.

At this moment in time, nothing drastic has happened from EV studios . They did however released this following comment :

This has been almost as bad a launch as Sim City :/

Can't wait to play the PS+ version but at this rate I'm not expecting it to hit until November

this is soo fucking stupid now. sony would be justified to close evolution studios after this wreck.
