Updated NASCAR '14 Patch News, Free Daytona 500 DLC Pack Arrives After Patch Releases

[Steve_OS]

In early March, the NASCAR '14 team announced a patch was coming soon. Earlier this month they revealed some more details and stated they have moved onto the final testing phase.

Today the team has stated they will complete final beta testing tomorrow with final QA and submission to follow.

Unfortunately, it looks like it might be a while longer before we see the patch. For those of you that are waiting for it to finally arrive, they also mentioned a free Daytona 500 DLC will arrive shortly afterwards.

Wait, so we are getting specific races as DLC now? *facepalm*

Back to Nascar Racing Season 2003, where I don't have to pay DLC for specific races.

No... you can race any race in single player or season mode... The DLC is typically re-creating moments from the races already run for you to replay, and try and create new history, or re-create it. That's likely what they are referring to here.

Actually, in this case it's referring to paint schemes. From their FB page.

I've waited this long, I guess I can't really say much else. If I was going to return the game and complain I should have done it a month or more ago. Here's to hoping the patch comes out soon because I really miss playing this game -- it has tons of potential once the CPU AI and aggressiveness is fixed.

Did this patch ever come out ?

I have been thinking about picking this up after it does.
