Yeah I've heard reports that he was told many times to move but didn't. This could very easily create some awful press with the new cars, and the fact it was broadcast live on tv. Just depends how much research the wankers at the daily mail put into it -
I'm not posting the pictures, but you can clearly see someone stood where Paddon hit the wall at the bottom of the hill from the onboard. He could have gotten out the way, but still. But if anything it's better that the papers report that he simply fell rather than being hit and launched up the hill, which is what I think happened -
He was stood on the outside of a bend covered in black ice, no cover, and no where to escape. As I suspected, the papers are already picking it up, the mirror in the uk has wrote an article, fortunately it's just factual and well written, but you just know a shitty article is on its way from the daily mail -
Hyundai confirmed, spectator has died. Very sad day -
Yeah, he did have a bit better road position as he started back with the wrc 2 because he got held up in ss1. Tomorrow we will really see how everyone fairs! -
I'd imagine that's from Paddon'a press team, doubt he would be in a position to post that yet. And he wouldn't be allowed to comment on the spectator at this time, not his job to say such things, nor would he probably want to -
Nothing official. A lot of unofficial reports suggesting an air ambulance, and a few French and Spanish press saying a fatality. We will have to wait for something official, I'm hopeful for good news, but I doubt it will be -
I'm hoping he fell, but it's really not looking good. The onboard definitely shows a person there, and the outside shows someone falling violently down the hill. There were people rushing over to the person as well. Hoping for some good news soon -
I hope it's true, but I've seen a nasty picture on twitter which I won't share which looks like a person being hit by the car as it hits the bank :( hipenim weong though -
There's an oboard and you can 100% see that there was a spectator in the ditch where Paddon went off, and can then see them faking back down after on the outside camera. Unfortunately it's not looking great at the moment. Sad for the spectator, Hayden and John, and the sport as a whole -
Have all the sub section headings on the forum disappeared for anyone else? Seems only on the mobile site though -
There may not have been pizzas or kebabs, but The burgers at the end of the day were very good! -

When the day does come, it will be worth the wait and teasing! I'm very much looking forward to being able to talk about it!KevM said:

It's fun when you know when certain road books containing certain information are going to be released!

I played it a few months ago because it was the free game of the month on Xbox. Don't have a wheel so I haven't tried, but I just really didn't like it! Oh well, it was free so I only wasted time on it in the end! I am missing a proper driving game right now, is love grid autosport on backwards compatible! Wasn't the best game, but there was some pretty good racing to be done in the touring cars -
I can kind of see that, I'm probably the opposite though. If it's aracade but still feels authentic and behaves how you would expect, even if dumbed down a bit. It's when nothing reacts In any way remotely similar to real life I struggle -
You can play the crew but not grid?! I'm a bit biased because I was a huge fan of grid, but I couldn't stand the physics in the crew, just found the cars unpredictable to drive. Grid is very arcade, but I always felt it was a solid handling model that was easy to learn and difficult to master. -
I was getting ready to run!tbtstt said:
I saw the whole thing from across the room.

I put it down to being an Xbox player and having no idea of the PlayStation controller layout!

Haha, nope, I was taking about when I played PSVR dirt rally. It was the first time in over a year that I played on a wheel, which is why I found it so goodbogani said:
Hmm. FFB on loose surfaces is ok/good. On tarmac it's much too vague.RallyDriven said:Being a controller user, playing on a wheel at codies the other month I was amazed by how the wheel reacts to the game, and how genuine it behaved. It really felt like an actual rally car
The way the the wheel returns to the center during transitions isn't really fast enough imo.
However, you might have played something else to what we currently have ;) -

It's definitely very playable on a controller, and you can be very quick, but you will get more out of it on a wheel! Wish I had the space for one in my room, I'd definitely get one sorted! -
Are you playing on a wheel on XB1 or a controller? Because you are an absolute mile ahead of me on most stage times! Then again, I do t play an awful lot as I've been trying not to learn the stages as best as I can, I prefer relying on the co-driverKevM said:I used to really enjoy the immersion of using dashcam with DR, but with a single monitor, it was restrictive and not as fast as bonnetcam.
id quite like to give VR a go, but I'm xb1 now, so that might be unlikely -
'Plenty of people'? You're talking about very few people, and a shit tonne of money!EDDSkitz said:Lol... plenty of people build their own cockpits and hardware even... console jockeys not need apply.
And yes, I play console. If I had the money and space for a gaming pc, wheel and peddle set up and VR, or in your case a life sized model of a fiesta world rally car, then I would. But sadly I don't. I do however compete in real rallying, and have experienced dirt rally in VR, and it was pretty dam good!
