Got bored of SweetshopUnion lately, it's way long just for mentioning to someone and everyone always asks why the name so I have to explain which is a fairly long story.

Ahh cool!
You have done pretty much the same as me today... Bought Premium then changed your name :P (I ditched the '001')
 
^Haha. I'll send you an invite next time i'm on Floats. If the weather round here stays like it has been the past couple of days (crap!), i'm going to have plenty of time to play this with you guys again. ;)
 
Myself and Fernaldo are going to head online reasonably soon, I'll be hosting as usual though I'm not sure what cars/tracks yet.

I think I'll start off in Rally cars on mostly Rally tracks and as more GTPers (aka reliably clean racers) join I will add more simultaneous stuff to the list and possible some Trailblazer action as in my mind it's like a modern Group B.
 
Good races guys, shame I had to leave fairly soon as I'd like to of contributed more to the in-race discussion.

Also did you have anymore trouble with that Xab guy? I think he raced fairly clean but would just spin at the start to try gain an advantage, whenever I passed him mid-race however he was fine. Just those starts which made me suggest a new PSN for him.
 
It was a good discussion about how disgraceful Golfman's life is Codemasters and these awful graphics are... :sly:
I sorted that guy out for you...
Very good mic banter tonight! Very, very, very good!!!
 
We BOTH sorted him out Aldo! ;).

Great stuff, one of the best online sessions i've ever been in!.:lol:
 
Definately one of our better sessions, mainly down to the banter.

[Sarcasm]It's a shame we're playing such a god awful game by such morons who clearly don't know what a real racing game is.[/Sarcasm]

This inside joke is going to run on for a long time isn't it?

Nah, it's not the quality of the game that's the problem, just the lack of Volkswagens. Clearly these idiots haven't listened to our demands. Again.:rolleyes:

Yes.
 
Nice avatar Tommi! Probably the best car in the world right there. Shame Codemasters are too 🤬 up their 🤬 🤬 to include them.

Lol!
I mean, where is my Golf with super economical Lupo engine?
 
sorry I didn't join you guys. I was working on my Level 30 Online trophy...which I got. :P one more left. and it should take another week to get it. stupid Tourneys

At least the Touareg Is in, with it's eco-friendly and frugal TDI motor, far superior to all other vehicles as the others are not in anyway related to VW who of course manufacturer the best car in the world, the Golf. If the Golf was in Codemasters unrealistic piece of trash it would not be good as they make everything wrong and can't do anything anywhere near properly like VW. The graphical quality would most certainly not live up to the Golfs smooth lines (especially the curvey Mk I) as there would be jaggies and screen tear everywhere!
 
It really is a shame isn't it :(
Such a fine car will never be able to be viewable with such low resolution. Bad times :(

Thanks!. They were too busy preparing to make a mess of Dirt 3 when they were choosing cars for Dirt 2, so simply forgot.

Or maybe VW didn't want the best car ever in the crap pile that is Dirt 2?

I just had to jump in
 
That's the spirit lad!
As you can see by my avatar, the golf is such a good car that every owner takes brilliant care of it.
 
I maintain Codemasters are just to ignorant to even know such an amazing engineering triumph exist as they are clearly stuck in a gutter of awful ideas and stupidity which results in such terrible video game entertainment products as the DiRT series proves.
 
I do have to admit that the car selection in Dirt 2 is a little wtf-ish. I mean, a couple I can understand like the Solctice...and I guess the 350Z would be in for the same reason (refer to drifting), but...I mean...the BMW Z4? The 350Z? Solctice? Dodge Power Wagon? Honda Ridgeline? Hummer HX? in fact all the Stock Raid trucks are kinda out there. I guess, though, Honda and Hummer REALLY wanted in the game though.

Dirt 1 had some wtf cars, too, though. Mainly the Lotus Exige. (the TT wasn't so, WTF mainy because it's an Audi.)

I mean, I really don't mind having the usualy cars. I think it be cool to have an "Exotic" class or something all the weird cars in it.

It's a shame that I can't race with you guys on weekdays (or weeknights for me, anyway). Hopefully I will be able to go online on Friday/Saturday night. Would anyone be interested in trying some team races?

Also, what is wrong with the VW Golf. They (especially the GTi and R32) are quite good cars in my opinion (although not the hottest hatchback ever - I would give that award to the Focus RS500).

Nothing, as you can see from our avatars we absolutely love it. It is simply the hottest hatchback in the history of motoring.

Maybe you'll be able to hear us talk about our appreciation for it on the weekend.

;)
 
wth is going on here.

I was waiting for someone to ask that :lol:. There's like 3 threads we've made reference to all this in, some people know what we're on about, some don't.

Just like Codemasters clearly don't know what they're doing but VW clearly do with their magnificent Golf range.
 
:lol:
This is EPIC!!!
No screen tearing, jaggies or low resolution in the well made Golf that's for sure!
