I may be a new member to Hydro but to my knowledge Hydro will return but I haven't heard much from Slash since this new site update. I do have GT6 but I don't have a functioning PS3 at the moment but I hope to see a lot of old and new faces on the strip when I return

 

[zMystery]

Ohh OK cool yeah looking forward to playing with them again hopefully soon I see a lot of new faces on the game which is a positive thing just miss playing with some of my old buddies

Would be nice to get the gang back together; I'm still working out which cars from GT5 are slower and which are faster, along with the new ones and where they fit into the mix. Seems like muscle is mixed solely upon which cars actually hook up and which just spin out for half the 1/4.

Yeah the HP in this game is a bit of an issue, I've been watching one of my friends play and the cars just don't grab traction because they have such high HP now and then there are the nitro users, that is just as bad as hacking or using SRF if you ask me, probably even worse than both of them combined seeing as how thrasher has someone timed his cars and his Mustang GT500 is running .300-.400 faster with nitro than without, when I run lobbies the nitro will be restricted out otherwise whats the point in drag racing, nitro is just to much of a crutch and I think PD needs to just get rid of it but that's just me, some people like but I don't lol.

I think if the nitro can be restricted then it's not a problem, but then again like someone stated before it could be interesting to have an EVo/WRX on spray race against a much faster car like a Corvette, Viper or anything in that like, just my two cents.... I know we can go on on this but it is what it is...

Agreed, but it's a shame in my opinion.

Agreed if nos is used correctly makes it a lot better like a zr1 with spray vs a gtr without it would be interesting

I'll try my best to get as many cars as I can as fast as I can when I get on GT6, my PS3 is currently broken so I can't really do much right now but believe me I'll be on this game 24/7 when I get a new one

sounds good. i would like to start recruiting actually but i cant get ahead of myself lol. so, if anyone is looking to join mine and slashfan's team, please contact me via pm.

 

[cgg]

I'm not feeling drag racing in the same way and I haven't even got GT6 yet, but I really want to tune the 1966 1200 Beetle, just like I did on GT5.

 

[Slash]

KT is spot on, hydro will be returning for sure but in a new light. Everything is under tight wrap right now but I can assure you, you won't be disappointed. No date is set in stone yet. Either I or KT will make the formal announcement soon but that is all I'm disclosing at this time.

I think it's best that we work on the kinks in the game before we make a formal gathering.

I agree, I'm going to be a bit behind on this game unless that money thing still works when I get on.

 

[Slash]

I don't even have it yet and I probably won't have it any time soon.

 

[ryzno]

Nevermind, dumb question.

Hey guys how are you doing on this fine day lol, just thought I'd let all the Hydro members that read this thread that I'm getting my new PS3 tomorrow and I should have a bunch of cars and be up and running in a few weeks time, I have finals coming up in a few weeks so I'm not going to have to much time to play until the end of January.

Awesome to hear bro, glad you'll be running with us again soon. Right now things are smooth sailing but we are taking it all easy.

Check out the new thread as well when you get a chance. It's not anywhere near finished like we intended to be (more of a placeholder right now), but it's up, nonetheless.

Great to be coming back, can't wait to get into it full force again.

Which thread is this, I didn't see one for Hydro. Is it the Team Eclipse thread?

 

[Slash]

Yup. Me and KT decided to revert back to the original name that I used, oh hell, probably 3 or so years ago before I went on hiatus and then came back 4 months later with Hydro. Eclipse was one of the biggest names at the time, and one of the first GT5 drag teams, and given the history behind it, we felt it would be cool to resurrect it for GT6.

You can even ask KT about it, the first time he ever got ahold of me to request his addition to the team, he said he had to make the PM look so formal it wasn't funny to make a good impression, and that he was shaking like a mother:censored: from just uttering my name

Now look at him

Cool, I have a look at these threads sometime, I'm about to head out to get the PS3 in about an hour. What really sucks is that I have to take the mountain bike across town to get one because none of the cars are hear this morning (insert angry annoyed face here) and it's only 30 degrees outside, ahh the things I do for video games lol.

 

[Shells N Cheese]

Well GameStop managed to P*** me off once again, I walked in there with an entire backpack full of stuff to trade in and walked out with $19.50 and angry. I started by trying to trade in some PS2 games, 2 8MB PS2 memory cards, a PS2 DualShock 2 controller and an RCA cable that works on PS2 and PS3, well I was told right away, (and I quote) "We don't accept anything PS2 anymore", and in my head I'm thinking well that's funny because there is a shelf to my right filled with PS2 games, controllers, memory cards, and consoles, the only thing I got money for out of that first batch was for the RCA cable and that was only $2 and believe it or not a few of my games were worth less than that cable. So the second batch was my old Nintendo DS Lite system, the top screen is broken but it can be fixed easy and I was told (and I quote again) "We don't accept them if they're broken" and again I said to myself, well that's funny because your website says different, according to the website they do accept broken systems, if I can't get money for a broken DS than I sure wont get any money for my broken PS3. So the third and final batch was PS3 and XBOX 360 games, I traded in 7 PS3 games and 1 XBOX 360 game and only got $17.50 for all of them, (the other $2 was for the RCA cable). My copy of Forza 4 was brand new, payed $40 for it and only got $2.50 back, they disc didn't have a scratch on it and was barely even played, my copy of NFS Shift 2 was brand new as well, payed $20 for it at WalMart and only played it twice, I only got $2.50 for that as well, my copy of GTA 4 was the same way, brand new but played a lot more and still only managed to get $1.50 for it, it was the same for NFS Shift 1, only got $1.50 for it too. NFS Undercover was brand new and I only got $2.50 for that. I had a copy of NFS Hot Pursuit Limited Edition with the online pass unused and I got less for that than I did for NFS Undercover at a mind boggling $2. And now my last two games, I had a copy of NFS The Run Limited Edition with the online pass unused as well and only got $2 for that too, the last game, Midnight Club Los Angeles which is a game that is older than most of my other games and I somehow got more for that than I did for anything else at $3 (whoopie). Now please somebody explain to me how a game that is older than most of my others is somehow worth more, that says a lot right there, I should've gotten WAY more cash for my other games seeing as how they are newer. So, all in all, I walked out of GameStop P***** off because they are cheapskates, I know for a fact that they do still accept PS2 games and accessories because they sell them all over their website and in their store and I also know that they do accept broken consoles and fix them up then resell them. If you ask me GameStop should be sued for fraud, ripping people off (because we aren't stupid we know what things are worth but you can't take them anywhere else because no other store really accepts them or at least not where I live they don't, GameStop is the only one that takes used stuff around here) and the last and one of the biggest reasons is false advertising, saying on their website that they accept broken systems for cash but they when you go to the store with one that story changes also the website says until December 29, 2013 all trade ins will receive 30% more cash, well that is false as well, because if it were true I would've walked out of there with $25-$30 but instead they lie and I walk out with $19.50. Sorry for the LONG post guys but this is the reason why I still don't have a PS3. I do have $120 on the way to my wallet so I will get one I just don't know when. Sorry for the double post mods, this just needed to be said to the team.

Damn that sucks bro! My problem is I have the game but I am always working, on my way to work as we speak. I'll be home this weekend so hopefully I'll have sometime to take a crack at it. Also I need to finish my Batman game too ahhh!

That is why you sell online.

 

[Shells N Cheese]

That is why you sell online.

I tried selling the PS3 games online and nobody bid on them so that was a waste of time, I would have one right now even after that really worthless trade but the sale ended and the systems went back up $50 and I ended up being $40 short.

 

[Slash]

My ex gf took a brand new, still sealed mic to Gamestop to try and get the money back (worth $30, and I was lowballing it) and they offered $7.

LOLNO
