That looks fantastic. Still planning to get the this game soon.

Will future disc based versions of this game have the patch on the disc, without the need for installations?

Its a shame reviewers review a game once and then move on - if DC was reviewed today with all the add ons and improvements I'd say its a 8.5-9.

Yeah definitely.

Btw did Polygon update their review again once servers started to work, or did they not?

Just had a look on Polygons site and their last review was in mid Oct when they marked it down to a 5.  Hope they and the industry get round to updating reviews.

They took no time to downgrade the scores when servers were not working, but its been weeks now since the servers started working and yet they aren't willing to upgrade the scores. Seems like they have an agenda.

Whats 2 months late? Weather wasn't meant to be released at launch, they just said that it will come before the end of 2014 (Which was the truth)

I don't particularly care for how the cars control and the AI is awful, but the weather may just get me to jump back into it.

What are you saying? The car controls are wonderful for an arcade racer, and AI is subjective, though its always quite aggressive in Evolution's games.
