Προβλήματα στο Online
Η Atari θα κυκλοφορήσει patchάκι για το Online mode του Race Pro, για όσους αντιμετωπίζουν προβλήματα με το lag.

Following the worldwide launch last week and subsequent sales success of Atari and Simbin’s RACE Pro, some players are experiencing problems when playing online. Some problems are created by the sheer number of people who are trying to play online at the same time, a situation which is unfortunately impossible to appropriately simulate in pre-launch testing.

Other difficulties are arising because of the specific way the multiplayer gameplay mode is designed. To help players quickly get to grips with how to get the most out of the online mode until changes can be implemented in game, we have produced a Guide which is now publicly available.

We apologise to players for any inconvenience or poor experience caused by these unforeseen issues, and we would like to reassure the community that we have been focused on solving all the known problems since the game’s North American launch on 17 February. To this end, a Title Update is planned to be available to all players connected via Xbox Live as soon as humanly possible. In the meantime, we would like to thank all the players who are already having a great time with RACE Pro on and offline, and we promise full continued support to the rapidly expanding community of players.
