Colin McRae Dirt 2

[SuperShouden]

You could use the Toyota FJ Cruiser.

 

[Dragonistic]

Haha. I think we need to use some different vehicles, the Hummer is fairly boring now.

It's not really the vehicles that bother me in that, though I'd prefer Trophy trucks if it wasn't for the f'ing Toyota which will come in and just leave everyone standing with no chance to smashy smashy them. Buggies might be an option and is worth a trial at least 👍.

 

[SuperShouden]

I think it's cool that Jesse James Baja truck (which, btw, is the one he built on Monster Garage. After the episode he took it back to his shop, gutted it and rebuilt it so it'd be better. Now he races the Sutka every year at the Baja 1000.) But, Trophy trucks would be cool 'cause everyone could select their favorite one and smashy smashy.

The stadium truck by default has really poor acceleration compared to the rest of the trophy truck group, you could easily get off the line before them and smash them as they try pass. It is only if you let one slip through that it probably won't be reeled back in.

Vehicles however I was thinking of something faster, I can never build up enough speed to hit Fernaldo hard in the Hummers. Trailblazers would be funny to smash because they are so massive.

 

[SuperShouden]

you could use the slide happy Bowler Nemsis.

 

[Talon]

When are you going to join in on the mayhem SuperShouden?

 

[SuperShouden]

Next week sometime. Probably Friday the 6th.

VW is more slide happy.

Seriously? I think there's more then enough heavy contact speedwise. We can Trailblazers though I'm game as we never use them, infact I'd be game to use them for normal racing as well but yet again there's the Dallenbach, hopefully it won't have the same advantage on the tracks we run but I suspect it will, I urge all GTPers at least to avoid that vehicle should we use Trailblazers.

 

[Aldo]

But it would be good for kinda scooping people up....

 

[Cale]

I'm game for trailblazer. I'm not that fast but it's fun.

 

[Cale]

I found someone else I can invite. He races clean and he's pretty fast. We tied in the results and it all mattered who got out front first. Neither of us would gain/lose on the other. It was annoying but fun.

 

[SuperShouden]

too bad you can't race against AI drivers. It's always fun to have a CPU bash.

 

[crazytortise]

I picked up Dirt2, 2 days ago because it was well, dirt cheap

Anyway what's the racing you guys do? I'm still a beginner but will learn fast racing with you guys. It's a big difference to playing GT5P.

 

[Aldo]

Hi CT!
Racing here is pretty casual, with Dragonistic winning everything...
It basically starts with someone posting on here saying "Oi! Anyone up for a race?" or someone says "I'm on" and people come and join.
Please tell me you have a headset? It's more fun with one

No I don't have one because I can't spreken zee english

I'll go pick one up so I can join in with you guys. Will be great fun. Dragonistic wins pretty much everything he enters into

Drag has like 25 losses in 1070 races or something..

 

[Aldo]

Well you don't need a headset. Only myself, Drag and a guy called Trolley Burgers have one. Good banter though!
Yeah he's a fast **** isn't he?
Most of his non-podiums have been in the destruction derby type things we occassionally do...

 

[boiltheocean]

You can also chip in with the occasional smart-ass remark using the in-game chat, I do this often.

 

[Aldo]

^Lol
Oh, and you'll be assigned an F1 driver name... I am Fernaldo Alonso, Drag is Phillis Dragilton, and there are a few more.

 

[SuperShouden]

And I'll be Shouden Wolfe 'cause it's cool and it sounds like a F1 name.

 

[Talon]

Hey! I never got a name.



I have no idea what it would be anyway, I'm not very into F1.

 

[SuperShouden]

I'm not either.

 

[motortrend]

anyone up for a race in about 12 hours?

 

[Dragonistic]

Myself and Fernaldo are about to go on now if anyone is interested.

 

[Cale]

I freakin missed you guys by 3 minutes. I joined another jam session though and after winning every race by over 19sec I switched to the Eclipse and was taken out every single race.

 

[vompatti]

Give a shout in here next time you are heading to track. I might join in if I'm available.

 

[Cale]

My DiRT file has now corrupted for the third time.

 

[Sureboss]

Reminds me to update mine tomorrow.

Seems quite strange to have corrupted three times, have you asked them about it? There might be a known issue/cause tha wouldn't be public.

 

[SuperShouden]

Dirt 2 is officially ordered. Went down to GS today and traded in a plethora of PS2 games. Was going to get Dirt 2 there, but they didn't have any, so I went on GS's website and ordered it from there. Tomorrow, I'll be getting the PS3 and MCLA Complete Edition and $20 for the PS Store. But give me a week and I'll be playin' with you guys on Dirt 2.
