Hajime Racers Team: Touge, Wangan and Drift!Open

[Obelisk]

Techically it's on topic since last time I check the Miata was a car...
But whatever

On the topic of Haime Racers.


Hey guys, I'm being pretty dead serious when I say this:

I'm going to commission an anime-style introduction for our club. Now, I have most of the character designs already barring a few of the new characters and Steel/Aria. Now, I was thinking of a walking sequence that started with Dag walking left with race clips in the background, then Steel and Aria pop in a bit later. After a bit, the screen swings left to show the big three Hajime Racer members: Kaage, G and Ryuu walking to the right. It ends with a larger picture of the two groups walking to a car on their side (512BB for Shadow Racers and whatever car the Hajime guys want that represents them), and then a freeze frame of the two groups by their cars looking at each other.

Sounds complicated to me.

Thoughts? Any other ideas?

 

[Yusenkyo]

its impossible to hate the mx5. The miata is always the answer.

That's so true..

I wanna test drive the new one but i doubt they'll let me try out the club edition

that intro sounds intensive to draw unless someone is very skilled..
But would look great though ^^

I guess it sounds alright, but please remember that the story line is mainly about the rivalry between HR and The Divine 12. So this "Shadow Racers" team will be, well, shadowed by the other two since it wasn't an original rival for the original Hajime Racers. In other words, it has nothing to do with the story's plot or Hajime Racers as a whole. Also you'll proably won't get much help from anyone of us unless we're willing.
If you think I'm picking on you, your highly mistaken. Kaza texted me this morning to say this since he can't due to college. He'll probably add on to this when he's free.

Well, don't forget that D12 hasn't been officially introduced yet.

Also, it was because of Dag's actions that some people decided to join HR if I remember right.

Do we have any images of the D12 members?

As I already said, I don't know the details, just that Kaza isn't really supportive of your or Dag's actions. I would show you the actual text message, but you might get more offended.
Edit: I mean one of the reasons I think why he isn't very supportive is because of how the reunion is going. Originally it was meant to be a just a happy chill night with a few guys and girls. But now it's almost like a 007 mission, where there's a spy from an enemy firm there.

Just PM me the message or his contact info.

i've been thinking, i've been thinking...since i have NFS Shift 2 Unleashed, we can do a few chapters called RAMGarage: Project for the ultimate Wangan weapon. a car that needs to be highly balanced testing and tuning cars with crazy engine swaps and such. opinions?

How would the premise work? I like the basic idea, but I feel like if it has no direction, it won't go past the first turn.

since Ryuu makes time attack cars, why not experimenting different cars on different tracks. however, NFS Shift 2 doesnt have too much japanese circuits (Auto Polis and Ebisu, sadly), so we have a hole in there tho. maybe Bathurst but nah, the "concept" of "Hajime Racers" would be a bit damaged. but if i browse and i find Tsukuba, Suzuka and Fuji...

EDIT: oh, wait! Suzuka is in the game, tho. well, i think we dont have to worry about a bit. but without Tsukuba and Fuji...

I feel like you'd do a better job with this wirh something like GRiD.

the difference is that in Grid, you dont have to tune cars, no engine swaps and no gears, suspension or downforce settings, unlike Shift 2, where you can put a 20B rotary engine on a Miata and squeeze it to 955 HP while the car can weight less than a ton, or a Supra with the V10 of a Lexus LFA and squeeze it to over 1000 hp+

At the same time, Grid has touge courses.

yup, but its just different roads of Mt. Haruna. while in NFS SHift 2, there's something called "Ebisu touge circuit". pretty tight and its purely hairpins but no straightaways

 

[Obelisk]

yup, but its just different roads of Mt. Haruna.

If you're looking at wangan, I can definitely do photos from Forza Horizon 2.

Yep, I couldn't get on with my time to get to college. I was running late.

But yes, as Ruwan said, the Divine 12 would need to be shown more with the Hajime racers, as the original idea was that when the new Hajime Racers gets up again, the Divine 12 will be the first to know of this, and what follows will be them versus HR. (Like back in ye old' days.) I mean we'd be ok with your team being in if we did an intro, but I will talk to you about this via a PM Obelisk.

I sent a PM already, waiting for you so we can discuss.

yeah, that should be great. NFS Shift 2 and FH2...

Rotary engine on miata.. check..
LS1 in s2000 .. check..
V12 in a fiat heck yeah

V12 in an old Fiat 500. Oh heck yes.

 

[jackknife]

that's just so crazy .-. the game aint like that tho..you can swap the engines but just engines made by the same brand e.g the S2000 can only have the V6 of the NSX (and with twin turbos, of course ) while you can swap the LS1 of a corvette C6 for the engine of the C6.R or even swap the R8 v8 for the V10 of the R8 LM

I don't think this will work well. Although the concept is ok. We could do a sub-story after we do the full Hajime Racers storyline (Season 1).

Anyway, cars can technically be made like this on GT6... (You just gotta imagine them in the story ) It's like I did on a colaboration chapter with Kakashi & NS. The K-Tune DR30 Demo car with a RB26.

FH2 has cross-brand swaps. Yiu can drop the four-rotor from the 787B in the Nissan Silvia Club K's.

yup. even a RX-7 with a LS1. however, if you want the sound of a high-pitch engine in a Audi, the v10 of the LM would be the correct choice. its like a demon that screams you for more and more and till you...(wait, no, no. that's erotic literature and hell, its awful). the point is: the v10 of the LM sounds like the 4 riders of the apocalypse, screaming under the hood, with words in a language that the human being can only translate with the exhaust pipes, and the high pitch means that they are hungry, no matter what cause, they just wanna run till they stop.

3, 2, 1 and we're back on topic.

Club room up at the touge.

Edit: At wangan now... Also so much for being back on topic.

Edit 2: Lobby down

Be there soon.

I'm sorry that you have shift 2

wait, what!? why?

Don't mind Marc. He's a bit...inebriated

Shift 2s handling is god awful. Your guy has a seizure every 5 seconds. It also feels like your always drifting.

Unfortunatelly I have to agree with this. I've bought the game and the classic cars pack via psn,so I'm still miss the money I spend on this. Most likely it was my worst and dumbest waste of money with a game,in years.

The visuals,carrer and car list are very decent,but the handling... And that "blur" on the whole interior while you are in high speed...

It could be an awesome game,but in the end they just 🤬 it up. Sad but true. Anyone thinking about waste time with NFSS2,I would suggest to just get over it.
