NASCAR The Game 2011 Interview (Part II)

04:49 PM - October 27, 2010 by RaychelSnr

In part two of our exclusive interview with Ed Martin, Ed really helped us to understand the mindset of the developers at Eutechnyx and the direction in which the studio is heading with NASCAR 2011. (Check out part one here if you missed it.)

Operation Sports: Ed, could you talk a little bit about the multiplayer aspect of NASCAR 2011?

Ed Martin: Well, for Xbox 360 and PS3 we will have 16 players online at once who will be able to play in a variety of modes. There are private games for those just looking to race with friends, as well as public races. We have leaderboards so the very best drivers can earn the respect of the NASCAR community. We also have two-player split-screen modes across all consoles for those wanting to play with friends offline.

OS: What about the possibility of online leagues for NASCAR 2011?

EM: We currently have no official league support within the game for NASCAR The Game 2011. However, outside of the game we are already seeing a lot of websites forming leagues in preparation for the game's launch. So those looking to be part of an organized event should check out our official forums! We are looking at how to integrate league management within the game for the next version though.

Good stuff.

I like they are looking into adding saves for races. Would love to do an actual full length season.

Great stuff, thank you!!

Yes, Feb is a long wait! I wonder if this will beat GT5 to the stores? (sarcasm off).

# 3 8 @ 10/27/10 05:44 PM

can't wait!

# 4 BurghFan @ 10/27/10 05:50 PM

Looks good. It seems like they are off to a really good start considering this is the companies first foray into NASCAR.

# 5 statum71 @ 10/27/10 07:30 PM

Bummer.....Still no presentation info.

Thanks for answering my question about in-game saves, I'm glad to know they're working on it.

I'm not exactly sure what is going to make this game better than Nascar 09. Considering that game sells for $19.99 and this game will come out at a much higher price point, I'd like to know what is it that is going to make this game better other than a update of drivers and cars.

I do not think that is a question that can be answered yet. Let's give them a chance to get the game out first, then we can make a judgment call from there. I think there are a lot of great idea's that Eutechnyx has, now we need to see how they were implemented.

Slightly concerned about the somewhat vague response to career...that they are looking for feedback from the community for where to take it. I certainly like when they listen to our feedback, but I'd like also like to see them incorporate a really robust career mode right from the start.

Obviously, just need to wait and see how it comes out. I do like the idea of rivals though, as long as it's not overdone.

Maybe I missed this, but are we a driver AND owner? Or do we act as just the driver and sign with owners? It would be fun to start with a small team and move up to displace Jeff Gordon on Hendricks' team.

Thanks Blue for everything. Hope the move went well for you and the family.

Looking forward to February.

# 11 Perfect Zero @ 10/29/10 03:28 PM

Wow, this is looking really good so far. I hope there will be more information about the online aspect as well as presentation, but I think this will be a fun game.

Thanks Rules..........

The move went as well as a move of over 1100 miles went bro. We will be settled into the new house in the next couple of weeks(once ready) and things should be back to normal.
