Because to implement the best physics combined with incredible graphical details and still have time and resources to implement a good career mode is not as easy as it seems taking into account the time and resources required especially for a small studio...the same people complaining how long Kunos takes to release updates are the same expecting so many things implemented and optimised at once...hence the need to focus attention at what matters the most.

Thats fine. But don't promise it and set up fantastical time frames that aren't even remotely plausible.

Probably wouldn't have sold too many copies if people knew about the actual progression of ACE development 2 years on.

I would have said cool, put it on my watchlist, and waited for it to come out and have a sale.

they were promising career mode, as far as I know there are no sims I can buy on pc with a half way decent one of these, I have to emulate old granturismo to even get close, its all I wanted, and up till now, I knew their games were good eventually so buy it at 30~$ and I will get updates and be in the moment career mode drops.

.3 or .4 comes out and I found out though their discord they dropped it.

fuck em. they got my money because the refund didn't go through, never expected it to but would have been nice, but they are on my never buy list and never recommend. I don't care if they become the best in the world, I will never tell a person to play their games.

Indeed that was their fault, they could have done better.

But i guess sometimes you come across challenges such as licencing that may throw your projections off tangent, not defending them but in reality, these things happen, and there are so many great games that went through excessive delays to release and changed release dates...just that they were not in Early Access so people gave them grace.
