It might have been the shopping cart. I was about to give the preview a try, but when I went to steam, there was an update that removed the preview, and in the game the Shopping cart was gone. I guess this means /hijack?
oh it's gone again? well, then i just tell you. the easter egg basically was just having PS2 era graphics filter
The question on my mind is whether we'll see the release this year or next. I'm not sure which would be better. If they take their time and release the update next year, that would undoubtedly be better for the quality. On the other hand, we've already been waiting for quite a while. I wish it were real!
Just found this scrolling through the leaderboard database in the browser. I guess this is a track for the training of the Drift Brothers? No entries with Drift cars either though. Strange.
I guess I wasn't the only one who did not expect news from the DTM eSports stream today, so I'll quickly sum it up here: Ranked UI championship addition These were shown in the stream: Not sure what to think about the 'Laguna' and 'Zandvoort' but hey - still work in progress probably. DTM pack (?) 2026 Chris Wacker-Bauer talked about Mustang, Aston and Temerario being worked on, and 'these cars and the liveries of the 2026 season will be ready in June' - he wasn't sure about a car pack, so I'll just assume (!) the Ferrari topic is also still work in progress and it's not sure the 2026 season will have a complete car roster. Again, just my interpretation, I'd love to be wrong. Edit: New Manthey Porsche liveries were shown as well.
One could discuss if that would be an improvement or just more confusion and more series. If you ask me, LFM should somehow be integrated into the community server tab or get its own tab on the very right. In both cases it wouldn't mess up the ranked system ('I rAcEd OnLiNe BuT My RaTiNg DiDn'T cHaNgE') but accessing it would be easier. Anyway, we don't even know if the pictures above resemble what we will actually see. It doesn't look finished at all to me.
For me, when clicking multiplayer in main menu there should be a menu with 3 options to click and not this super long bar with 7 options and community servers at the end super hidden. Just 3 tiles, Ranked, LFM, Communities. easy. And then each with it's own submenu.
car next to "Exclusive Livery Pack" reward tab looks like AI Mondeo btw this whole thing is interesting, seems like vRP rewards are back like it was during Ranked Championships IIRC (hopefully this time automatic not with 3 years delay) + on first screen u can also see additional license system
I'd love to see a new system that is based on licences similar to iRacing, but it could also be your 'Time Attack Division' displayed there.
they literally said that some sort of license system is coming why would time attack rating that has nothing to do with rankeds be displayed in ranked tab, doesn't make any sense
