the anticipated size of the download together with any hotfixes could leave us in a bit of a mess for this race. Could always start Steam in offline mode and download after the race if need be, AC still connects ok with Steam offline.  |

Is the big update today then? Time I set was in a z4, the lotus wasn't any quicker driven by the Ai, in fact top 4 places went to z4s in my offline race so had assumed it had the edge, but sounds not in human (alien) hands.  Hope race goes ahead, was looking forward to some track fun. |

Haven't seen any conformation of a release today. I rather race today and get the update, if there is one, tomorrow. That said, it will only work if everyone puts steam on offline.

If you allow Steam to run at start up you'll have to unplug the network cable or it'll update before you know it. |

Not sure where your getting your info from, the forums are quiet to me. And all i can work out is that a review is published today, no mention of any release candidate. You would have expected an official response surely?
Sounds like the RC and early access are separate things to me.

AC release candidate 1.0 is now out  Not sure where this puts us for tonight's race as my steam is already updating and doesn't look like it will complete in time. Time to break out the beers tough I reckon |

Steam downloads can be paused, then restart in offline, it will pick up where you left off when gone back to online. 3.1 gig will take hours on my comp so gone off line with Steam and will download after racing. If everybody is ok with waiting a bit longer for the update, the race should be ok to go tonight??  |

With a download that large and requiring files to be copied up to the server it means I'd not get everything ready for a race tonight.
Thus the server is up accepting bookings using the old version we raced last week.

I went for the clean install option so I won't be making it for tonight's race (didn't know you could pause and play midway through an update  ) Have fun |

Seems like what ever option is taken some will have been able to update and some not. Bit of a pain releasing it on a Wednesday - we changed from Friday races to beat the updates on race day issue and they still get us. It'll all be better next week |

I had booked my place on the old server, then went and had dinner and now it won't let me start AC without updating it! I press PAUSE on the download and it just keeps restarting when I press PLAY game.

I updated as soon as I could and hadn't seen the latest posts in this thread. Now I can't connect.
