    First you promised to release PVP on 24th of August, it means today. Now you have changed it. People are not blind.
    did we?
    You wrote on your dirtgame.com page at timeline section "Scheduled date August 2015 for PVP and Rallycross expansion" long time ago and it stayed like that for a while. Today morning it was changed to 24th of August on both of them, a certain date i guess. I took that as an announcement and hoped to get some great updates for this epic game already today. Now it is changed back to "Scheduled date August 2015".

    Actually i was on my mind to take time to write somewhere about short time to the end of August and two upcoming updates. It sounded like during 9 days players get two massive updates, little bit silly? Ofcourse it depends what we take as an update and what we do not. Maybe it comes 2in1.

    Nevertheless, players pushing themselves hopes too high is not good idea, but playing with releasing dates is also quite unrespectful against the consumers. If you would not changed this, what i described before, you could not have this post for sure.

    Peace.
    There is still a week to go for August.

    I can't think of any other use for zero cars, and would be really surprised if they put S2000 cars in the game, I don't see where they would fit in the timeline.

    I think S2000 cars have a perfect place in the game. Not as 'modern' content, but as 'iconic' content. The game's car choices have been all about capturing icons from memorable eras, and the IRC battles between Peugeot and Skoda (and Fiat) were certainly one of those.

    I think you might be mixed up though; general consensus wasn't S2000, I don't believe, but a 2000s class; WRC cars from 2000-2009.
    Wouldn't that fall under the Modern masters update?
    Depends how modern the modern masters cars are ;)
    Guess Codemasters view on modern is cars from the 60s to today ;)

    Too bad you'll not be there, I'll have to sit alone gaming then ;)
    You're going to Hell @Benniz ? Entry list looks really strong, should be a great weekend. Don't forget to take some pictures! 

    I'm hoping DiRT will be at Lydden so I can finally have a go at the rallycross! :smiley: 
    I will be in Hell working as a photographer for the picture agency McKlein, so I'd better remember to take some pictures ;)
    Awesome, look forward to seeing your shots!
    Hansen should have some great shots too ;)

    Re downloading Theif, as I lost my save so never completed it. 19.8GB downloaded in about 45 minutes, been waiting for this day for so long. That would have taken hours and hours before, my upload speed is actually faster than my download previously was :D
    You should move to Australia, we are still using copper lines with fiber coming soon lol

    It's Monday morning and I'm totally not jealous of those of you who got to spend the weekend playing the rallycross. 

    Sort of on topic, who watched the Canadian round of the World Rallycross Championship?
    Unfortunately I didn't catch anything. Will hopefully make up for it when they get to Hell (<LOL)
    Worth watching the finals (you should be able to replay the livestream). Some unusually unsportsman like behavior from Petter in the semi...

    I couldn't quite believe Petter's view on the incident... It was clear he turned in on Hansen.. No doubt about it...

    Anyways, back to the Gossip. There's one bit from the Kick It with the oh so pretty @KickUp section, which sounds intriguing:

    'Last up I’ve been brushing up on my rally theory for a bit of a feature I’m working on. More on that in the coming weeks but it’s starting to come together rather nicely. '

    What could this be?
    A rally school?
    Probably better pace notes ;)
