The game includes two new courses and new cards. Will try and get more detail before the end of the year. |

IDW Expert Member Group: Members Posts: 111 Member No.: 19,435 Joined: Aug 10th 2006 Location: Update Profile | The quote from the source says it is a software update - that the game has new courses and cars and will be on full test end-of-the-Month, aiming for 2008 (AOU'08) show appearance. This source is very good and is why I have posted it now rather than wait till 2009, but the exact number of new tracks and cars is an issue - I have heard one source say more than two, but again too early for confirmation.

IDW Expert Member Group: Members Posts: 111 Member No.: 19,435 Joined: Aug 10th 2006 Location: Update Profile | Sorry my typo (all thumbs today) yes CARS not CARDS - though I know the cards have been hacked I think Sega dealt with than in the ID4 v1.1 update (that was the release version in the UK)? On how quick - the game has not been as popular internationally as first hoped. I saw numbers that had MT3 doing better revenue numbers - for operators with ID4 it would be a quick LindBergh.1.1 update. I asked about it being at ATEI'08 but no answer.

Editor, if you can find a way to suggest the aura levels and ranks for the international version, that would boost more popularity for the game. Even that alone for just now. | ||

IDW Expert Member Group: Members Posts: 111 Member No.: 19,435 Joined: Aug 10th 2006 Location: Update Profile | Why not get the forum to send the comments to the ID4 ranking site at SOJ - they always like suggestions. The R&D team will be at AOU, but I am sure they would reply to forum member suggestions. I have zero influence as I only write in the scene. |

IDW Expert Member Group: Members Posts: 138 Member No.: 27,644 Joined: Nov 30th 2007 Location: Singapore | Wow, looks like really good news on the new version of Initial D Hmmm... in that case, there may be a need to transfer data from old cards to new cards because of the new courses |

Diesel freak! Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,948 Member No.: 25,899 Joined: Aug 15th 2007 Location: Malaysia | Cards only holds personal data such as particulars of the driver (avatar) and the car[s] an it's respective tunings. Maps are stored in the machine hard disk itself and there's no need for a card transfer. We'll have to change card ONLY IF there is a card system/structure revamp. |

IDW Supremo Member Group: Advanced Members Posts: 752 Member No.: 26,858 Joined: Oct 3rd 2007 Location: Update Profile | well...if we really add new courses...thats mean they need to add 2 more slots in the ID4 card....which mean we need to get a new card anyway...correct? |

The Dozuki Master Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,688 Member No.: 20,372 Joined: Sep 21st 2006 Location: Makati City, Metro Manila, Philippines | i really hope that's a typo error, otherwise i'll just observe IDv4.1 from afar if new cards would have to be made... it would be better if these would happen to IDv4.1 -- it's basically my ID5 wish list... --the return of the "lost courses" from IDv3 and ID special stage (at least tsuchisaka is fine for me) --the return of the "lost characters" (at least tomo and the 2 evo punks) --BGM select --battle level/aura system --no more godly AE86 trueno game physics can stay as is (in other words PC, in-in-out, and the like can stay), otherwise it'd be a huge flop... |

Request Title - PM Mods Group: Members Posts: 309 Member No.: 25,618 Joined: Aug 1st 2007 Location: Hong Kong | I think what he was trying to point out was that on the current cards there are only 6 courses that each time 1 is cleared it would be crossed off, if there was 2 new courses, how would they put that on the cards? unless they disregard the current cards and only future card renewals would also have the new courses included aswell. |
