Whats up with major teams not participating in the AG leagues lately? Where is Auricom for the FX350?

Most likely coming in DLC, just like it did for PULSE.

Jus think, everyone. If it hadn't been put back, it would only be 6 days until release... :(

Heh just think, they're probably going to make us pay for the exact same ships they charged for in Pulse, hows that for, you know that feel of value. Now why aren't all 12 ships from Pulse included, not finished? Don't buy it...

So there's been some kind of official announcement that its not going to make the may 29th date? I will cry.

Well if you ask Colin Berry (He works at Sony Liverpool, don't remember for what though. Sorry Colin ;)) about it he seems pretty sceptical.

As long as it doesn't take quite as long for the DLC to be released(compared to Pulse in the US anyway):frown: I'll be busy with the ships that are included, even though having access to all the teams would be great from the start.;)

I'm pretty sure it's 8 tracks 8 teams.

Okay. The tears are flowing. Why do I have this eerie feeling that it's not going to be out before September?

Sorry about that :P I was looking for some kind of backstory as to why some of the teams aren't in the game... Auricom of America is slacking this season! And what's up with no team for Greece?! Icaras and Triakis are Greek words!!!!!! And Im Greek!!!!! GIVE ME A GREEK TEAM!! Ok. Got carried away there. But yeah.

I'm interested to know the meaning of Triakis and Icaras. Might be something as simple as "Trident" and "Icarus" (The man from the legend) but still I'd like to know. ;)

That's exactly the origin of each, good guess.

Well, If I had to guess....

Auricom:They are preparing their "Qirex Kicker 5000" craft down to the last minute detail.

Icaras: Probably trying to see if they can break some kind of land(air?) speed record of some kind. But, it takes time get it right.;)

Harimau: Not really sure what's up with this team, they seem to be the PETA of the 2200's, so...hmmm...

Mirage: Having made mag-strip technology, wouldn't it be hilarious if they couldn't get their own craft to work with it?

Just guesses tho...

BTW, sorry for the off-topic-ness Lance. No hard feelings right?:g

From what I remember, Triakis came up from the name of a shark, although obviously the shark got it's name from elsewhere. Could be wrong. I know SOMETHING came up from the name of some ancient shark thingy. Big bugger it was.
