DiRTy Gossip about DIRT Rally Games

After reading a few things lately about how the WRC driver's not having splits in car on rally Sweden made for better action, I was thinking it could be a good idea to have an option to turn splits off in the game. Make it proper rallying, no splits or ghosts of other competitors online!

Agreed on both counts. Sweden was a cracking rally and I think the idea of turning splits off could work really well based on what we've seen of the game.

@evilsmurf @Rallycameraman @gentlenameMVB @Rallydriven - You dudes still OK for next Monday?

[RallyDriven 398]

I still haven't got a proper timetable for Monday yet, but as long as I have nothing important on in regards to coursework I should be fine. Hopefully I'll find out soon (this is the problem with going to a small university!)

Mate thats ok don't worry about it - School is more important than messing about having fun and eating pizza with us while playing video games.

You never mentioned pizza before!
Uni work it different to school work, it's a million times harder and you have to do it with a hangover!

Mines a pepperoni! Yeah, I'm all booked in and will be there on Monday. What time would you like us?

That's a little creepy.
It's too much like the pictures they paint on jets, to mark combat kills.
That, and I'd swear I used to own three of those cats.

Either you stay awake along enough to do coursework, or you get drunk enough to find scooby doo funny at 4am

Can't deny I'm pleased that # DiRTy Gossip is spreading and that maybe I'll get to hear that sound next week :)

To be fair it's from the Buy My Volvo video by Castor. This guy made an ad when he was to sell his old car and he got Volvo so impressed that they sent him a new car to do a similar video for it. And sold his old car to be used in a Forza commercial. Quite amusing!

That's the last time I'm using the forums whilst drunk

interesting what would sound so good to produce such a reaction?

[gfRally 449]

Well, PCars is now putting up video of their career mode/interface, its a fairly informative 4min video.  They have a few things that are mentioned in our DiRT wish list.   I know I'm beating a dead horse (maybe not best expression) even mentioning the obvious but I hope someday we see some similar videos from DiRT team.

@justbiglee I can definitely come on Monday, for the first time in two years I'm on top of my coursework, and my lectures are just covering stuff I've already done :)

@justbiglee hah! prokys! Same word Frost uses for lies! Do you happen to watch A Touch Of Frost? Or is that just Southam slang? Or old people slang? Inspector Jack Frost is pretty old..

[VirtuaIceMan 92]

I suspect it might be Cockney Rhyming Slang, i.e. Porkies pies = lies
