  1. Just done my first stage on it, massive massive massive improvement over Dirt 2 and 3 :) The car feels much weightier and it's definitely a lot harder now lol, almost feels sim and I'm thinking with a wheel it'll be amazing :) Had the AI set to Professional and I finished 51 seconds behind haha!

    If F1 is anywhere near as good in terms of realism it'll be a great game.

    There's punctures! Hit a banking a bit hard with left rear and heard a whoosh of air, the car kind of pulled to the left but it was manageable, a few corners later, pop! Spun out like crazy lol. Carried on to the finish but it was difficult and the noise of the rim scraping along was excruciating lol. Damn good job this time CM :)

  2. Bit of gameplay footage. Been reading good things, a fair few people are saying the cars aren't stupidly twitchy anymore and that they feel well weighted, and also that it's hard (which is good!). I've even seen a few people comparing it to Richard Burns Rally in a good way... Could it be that CM has finally decided to ditch all the gimicky crap and listen to what the fans want?

    Trailblazer is coming back in a future update (they will be using Pikes peak) and also Rallycross is also coming back in a future update.
    Neither is what I'd consider gimmicky :p I meant all the 'bro' voice-over and flashy menus.

    Haha, showed that to a guy at work and he's considering buying the game now, if he does I've already told him he's joining us for heists lol. Tried the game on my laptop now, it runs! Settings all at lowest but at 1366x768 it looks roughly on par with the 360 version :)
    You up for messing around on it tonight? If not no worries :)
    Sure am dude, just accidentally spent $50,000 showing the guy Online so I gotta make it back :p First heist is 2 player so we'll do that :)

    @SynGamer haha 2 last places in a row - I came last at Malaysia. 

    Edit: I think mine and Syn's championship points are typoed?
    I can't see any issues with your points? Someone point out to me the errors please, I'm quite busy so don't have the time to go through everyone's results
    I think he means that 4th and below aren't in order in the championship :p Only the top 3 are in the right order.

    @Hughesy My race is nearly ready dude, it's fairly high speed :)
    Cool, I look forward to racing it later  :D What time are we meeting up, about 7:30? Then wait until whenever Dan come on. Hope we can do the heist with a mate, as randoms are weird, and the Dutch guy seems to make the game lag for some reason...
    And it's finally finished lol. Yea sometime around then I think dude, we'll just do a few missions if he isn't on when we are :) I'm hoping we can get Krazy again, the first guy who joined us, he was a decent guy!
    See, you spend ages making a race, it's fun isn't it :) Do you mean the first random guy? He was ok apart from getting on the wrong bike lol. When we did the first heist, that bloke that joined was good. It was your brothers mate, hope he plays a heist with us again at some point. I'm thinking about editing my crazy race, put jumps on the downhill section for extra craziness, also changing a few checkpoints and the end. :joy: 

    Might make a race on the beach later as well. I'm hoping they let us create our own heists at some point, that would be awesome.
    The funny thing is I had my route planned out since last night :p Spent 15 mins or so putting down the checkpoints, then about 4 hours fine tuning all the little details like barrier placement and other things lol. Stuff we'll barely notice at the speeds we'll be doing :p But when you whizz past a concrete bollard and the stripes on it are facing in the direction the course takes, spare a thought for me going round and making sure they all point the right way lol. 

    The guy from the first heist is Krazy :p He's the one I meant. He's online atm so hopefully when the 3 of us are he'll be up for it :) And I'd love to make heists lol, but considering they don't even let you create a proper mission it may never happen unfortunately. Eating soon, will be on ASAP dude.

    Played GTA Online for about 9-10 hours today with @RevolvingPrawn  :joy: So addictive, I could tell I was getting tired as my mouth spasm gets worse and worse lol.
    The awesome thing is we still have loads to do on it lol, definitely gonna try making up some races and things :)

    This has just shot to the top of my likely to buy list :)

    It does look awesome doesn't it. Kinda reminds me of Rage, but actually being able to build your own ride is cool. The only problem I have is knowing who's making it. Yes Just Cause is an awesome game, but the driving physics were the worst I'd ever played in a game. The rest of it made up for that short fall, so I hope they've acutally spent time making the physics enjoyable in this game. Then maybe use similar physics for Just Cause 3. :)
    Rage was one of the first things I thought of :p For me though, finding out that it's open world and there's an in-car view was probably enough lol, GTA of the dystopian future? ;)

    And yes, the Just Cause physics were awful lol, but don't judge before you play! Remember Dying Light? :p 

  11. I consider you lucky @Hughesy :p I have to leave my bedroom window open just about 24/7 so my cats can get in and out so it gets freezing! Even on a day where the skies are blue and the sun is blazing I'll be sat in there with a fan heater on wearing a thick jacket haha.

    @RevolvingPrawn Not that you need it, but here's Nvidia performance guide. I read it all just go see the small differences between settings. I was right, there's no point enabling HD shadows when using Nvidia's PCSS shadows. :)

    Been looking for that :p I'll go through it later and configure a few bits. Cheers dude!
