Codemasters - Grid 2 - 2013

[Darr Drifter]

So a guy was bragging that if no one else has a GT-R that he was going to win this TA well I beaten his GT-R with a Challenger by 2 seconds.

No better feeling than beating someone with a lesser car!

Nearly done Season 3...what can I expect from the last 2 seasons?

As soon as you're done Season 3, it's all about the WSR (in other words, Seasons 4 and 5 are entirely composed of WSR races). I guess I'll say that there are no more clubs to rope in by then.

So a guy was bragging that if no one else has a GT-R that he was going to win this TA well I beaten his GT-R with a Challenger by 2 seconds.

Overconfidence got the best of him, I take it. I remember beating a group of somewhat dirty drivers with a Caterham SP300R in a race...by about 7 seconds. And I didn't have the lead until a little bit into the last lap.

Again, more evidence to suggest that some peeps don't know what brakes are but I think it's just becoming obvious by now.

 

[Rainbow Dash]

I'll give the guy credit though. The people behind him were far behind & it took me to the last lap to beat his time. I found my line & hit it hard. The game seems like a horrendous slide fest but once you learn to drift/grip just right it becomes fun. This game feels more & more like Criterion had an influence on it.

And the Challenger is low in Tier 3. I think the stock NSX has better stats.

I thought the Challanger was teir 2 or did you upgrade it and now its teir 3

Finish every race and every promotional event. Don't have to but you get maximum fans from it.

In Seasons 1, 2, and 3, it's all about winning over the select continent's racing clubs. Get all of them on board and you can begin the World Series Racing leagues.

Just keep racing.

I've done all the races & promotion events but can't get any further.Have been redoing them but cant get any fans so I cant progress any further in the game.

 

[Dean]

well..it's mega different.

Hopefully, that's in a better direction ?

Are you sure you've done ALL the races and not just the first race for each club/location? Remember to scroll left and right on the race selection screens.

I won 7 playlist races in a row a couple of days ago, and in only my second day of online gameplay! I never expected that to happen!

The Challenger + Tier 2 + city track = win

Also, have you achieved the sponsor objectives?

 

[The Stig Farmer]

Also, have you achieved the sponsor objectives?

I found that they weren't that vital actually...

Thanks for the help guys,got it sorted now.Time to go racing I think.

Every little helps... Personally I haven't been fan numbers limited at any point, Close to completing Season 4. Glad they have kept online separate, I wouldn't normally bother as I'd either be bored by that point or feel like there was little objective except avoid the crashes. Gutted to only have 1 season left and glad I will get more plays out of the game!

Just waiting for a CodeMasters game that I will still be playing a month after release though...

What was the issue?

 

[anim8r_uk]

See. I told you things like that was happening. What I do is make a lobby, and then race til I get back to green or white.

 

[Rainbow Dash]

Custom Events are a waste because of the miniscule XP & cash rewards. I get that they were stopping boosting before it starts but with how badly people are on this game I feel like I'm boosting every time I race.

 

[The Stig Farmer]

Looping loading screen. Urgh.

 

[Silver-Sylph]

The rating system needs to be worked on. I just love when i go into a race white and then just gt hurled around like a pinball and then i come out with a yellow rating.

I use a custom lobby to get my impact rating back up.

Sorry I couldn't join. I had just been called into a Battlefield 3 match.

That first round of Faceoff matches were super close and alot of fun. That was my first time driving the Focus to.

Just bought the Focus what do you think of it interms of the grip cars ?

 

[Rainbow Dash]

The Focus drifts better then most RWD|DRIFT cars.

Why? Just do alternative or everything playlist. Over half the event types have you rolling start apart, 1v1 or stage start so getting back to white is easy & could net you a nice cash plus XP reward.

Well, I be with friends and new people. It benefits us all. I'm level 28. It's not like I need much else.

 

[prisonermonkeys]

I need to find a good racing game, so I'm seriously considering this. I'm just concerned by the rubberband AI and the "hard" difficulty setting that looks outrageously easy in YouTube videos.

I found out 2 days ago that not only is there "Easy/Medium/Hard" but also "Very Easy/ Very Hard"

Although the rubber band AI is a pain. Especially in the last sector. Ill be 3+ seconds up then across the line we'll be neck and neck.

 

[prisonermonkeys]

I don't mind them coming back at me late in the race - it's when they slow down so that I can catch up that it becomes a problem.
