Dirtfish AND VR? I'm certainly jumping back in over the weekend!!!

I've been binge watching Hoonigan's YT channel recently and Rhys Millen does a great job at explaining the corner numbers in rallying for anyone interested (time stamp embedded) :

I did feel that Gymkhana 10 was a bit of a letdown, not really sure why though. I think its because they've pushed the boat out more stunt wise each time but this one was a little more reserved. Possibly due to the multiple locations but I did feel that watching the series first then Gym10 again was better. The Focus definitely seemed to lumber around in comparison to the smaller wheelbase of the other cars, one of the best looking though in my opinion.

I watched The Gymkhana Files over the weekend and it was heartbreaking watching Ken having to tell Bakkerud that the Hoonigan RX team was no more. You could tell how much he loved it by how upset he was. Man that was one hell of a docuseries, would thoroughly recommend to anyone.

Yeah me too, I guess its easier to access for most people though as its in front of them and a lot of people use it anyway. I just forget its there half the time lol.

I did wonder, I don't use Discord all that often especially that chat which has so many people and moves so fast

This video is great! I'm also apparently the 10,000th viewer which is quite satisfying lol

His liveries are very out there and most would say obnoxious but I just love them. Whoever the graphic designer is does a fantastic job I just see it as another source of fire spitting 😉

Oh damn that is THIC

Ken has come across as a humble dude, he's never been a guy who tries too hard or thinks he's a great driver. He's a guy who's earn't his money and is enjoying his passion, something 99% of us could only dream of. He gets hated on by jealous internet trolls with nothing better to do. Fun fact, when I went to watch the World RX Championship at Lydden Hill and he wasn't racing at the time, I saw Ken standing on his own next to the track for quite some time just watching the racing. I didn't see any other drivers around doing the same, maybe for other reasons but he just looked like he was enjoying himself.

I've still not watched that, keep meaning to! Who knows. as much as I think his car looks dope, I hope they aren't "bastardising" too many originals. I don't even know how many are still in the wild lol

He's already had one but crashed it and it burnt to a crisp:

Very important life lesson: Don't believe everything you hear. That's how we got Brexit.

Don't believe anything anyone says about stuff like this unless they can back it up with a source, I'm including myself in this. I heard we are going to be getting an open world Wales instead of dedicated stages plus PSVR support tomorrow.

Are you kidding me, that is just speculation, don't throw around things like this if its not been confirmed by anyone from CM!!

Where did you read it?

None of that is game-breaking, myself along with plenty of others are still enjoying ourselves with what is on the whole a very good game.

In this case, I would expect every single one of those bad reviews to be turned into positive reviews once they fix the issue. I guarantee however that will not happen and this will reflect unfairly on the game.

Why has this made you change your preorder?

I admit I did get heated beause it felt like a lot people were throwing their toys out of the pram for one thing that didn't work smoothly on release day. I do understand that it should be working and maybe it was a fault on CM part to make sure this did really work properly before offering this incentive. I agree that it should hold onto times until a connection can be established if necessary, anything to not break the flow of the gameplay for everyone. However I do not agree that compensation should be offered, the Deluxe Edition isn't just early access but includes future content. Having it implemented in a way where its required to have progress saved, that is a pretty ridiculous way to do it, especially if people are having these net issues. I'd also like to expect that DLC locations will be integrated somehow, maybe as standalone championships? Not sure. I haven't actually tried the career mode yet except RX so not sure of the format. Unfortunately this was exacerbated by the fact that Racenet was dodgy, if it was fine I don't think most people would have noticed this integration. I definitely sympathise with those who are unable to play the career mode at the moment, you bought the game and you want it to work but yes, people need to be patient for these things to be fixed. Thanks for the reasonable reply @RodgerDavies ❤️ I can respond to posts like this as they have thought and reason behind them.

It's quite possible thats just a car they used for testing since it was in both DR1 and D4 but I live in hope. I live in more hope that we'll get the blob or hawkeye 😞

When did I sway away from the fact? I said quite clearly here in the below I don't think its a good design. If you're going to argue then at least read my previous points: Anyone else want to ignore what I've written?

Ok mate, the feeling is mutual.

You're telling me you spent an extra £15 just to play 4 days early? Not for the DLC that is coming out down the line? It is entitlement, its not CM fault that today is the only day you can play.

Wow, the entitlement is strong. Why should you get compensation because you haven't played immediately? What compensation would you like?
