Question for Mario?

[wingding]

Hi Mario,
One of the things I'm looking forward to with the upcoming release of MCC is the chance to view the surroundings of all those Australian tracks I've wagered at over the years.
Flemington and Moonee Valley in particular.

Can you tell me if there is some type of free roam or flyby function within the game which will allow a player to view these beautiful courses?
Or can we only view them whilst races are in progress?

Thanks in advance,
Wingding

There is no freeroam function, sorry.

However, you have the opportunity to view the race from ingame, via race coverage and in the introductory flythroughs.

Thanks for the prompt reply Mario!

Can you elaborate a little on this Fly-Through aspect of the game.
Is this an automatic feature, activated when a track is selected or will it be accessible in some other fashion?

When you go to a new race event, the relevant information is shown onscreen while a camera flying around the track is shown in the background.

is TV race coverage a fixed camera from 'go' to 'wo'

or does it change and zoom in on some parts of a race - like the trendy free to air coverage we see, with the moving camera that rides next to the pack and shows close ups of the positionings

i prefer the sky racing - fixed camera, where the same camera sees them jump, and the same camera sees them round the bend in the distance, and the same camera then sees them pass the post

Yeah same m8 i prefer the sky way 2. It would be cool to watch your owned horse race in the melbourne cup as if you were watching it on TV.

Mario i have a question also.
When your horse is running on a particular day, can you view all of the day's races at that course or only the race that your horse has been entered in?

ie. If your horse is running at Flemington in race 3, can you watch races 1 to 8 or 9 also? It would be like your there the whole day, rather than just for the one race.

Cheers
