yo m8's..
I gave chimpster our website because i have driven with him in his room a few times and he is an exceptional driver from england like limpindog.Not too many people who can run side by side and still maintain full control of the car.Even though we ran in rh2004.I can see he is not only fast but fun to drive against(BAR vsBAR).So he will email me a password to drive with him again next weekend.I gave him permission to come to the NAR practises as he has a great connection and is respectable in not cutting corners.I hope to drive with him more often because he can stay right with you and not hit you.That in itself makes him an above average driver...keep it up chimpster...excellent driving

I have not tried CMR2k5 yet (is it out for PC yet?) but I strongly suggest you try Richard Burns Rally before you spend the money on CMR... RBR feels more "sim" than CMR.

ah....here's that thread.....hehe....I had to look it up. Cause I remember you saying something about Richard Burns Rally, Bilbo. I installed it today and it is really really really GOOD! But super hard too....FINALLY! CMcR is not even close IMO. Last time I felt this way about a rally game was Rally masters a few years back....1999 or something.......the WRC series for Playstation is good too.....IMO.....

.....and someone made a multiplayer-mod too I think.....but I havent looked it up yet.....and if you are a 3D-studio-max-wiz you can make your own car....

screw x-mas....game on!

Bilbo · Post by **Bilbo** » 25 Dec 2004, 00:59

Hehe, exactly. RBR is like your first time driving with no aids. It's very hard in the beginning, and then it's soooo much rewarding, it's like you haven't lived before...

It's even more worthwhile in a rally game as the vast majority of rally games tended to the arcade side more than the sim side...

There's effectively a multiplayer mod (RBRnet) which enable live "ghost mode" racing against another player but I haven't tried it. In fact, I haven't been able to play that game as much as I would have liked but then, that pretty much sums up my life these past days/months/years...

yooo guys . after completing all driving trainings at richard burns rally for a gold star , and got some wicked cars ill say that game is SUPER great !
after completing all richard burns challenges , i started doing rally seasons , THERE u really have to stay cool, and dont do anything stupid,but as u guys know stupid is my middle name so aint too easy for me not to make any mistakes

... this game is THE best game for people WHO THINK they can driver ,got SEVERAL friends laughing when i hit the trees for 5th time in 10 mins . then just let THEM try , and have a laugh urself , and they will be quiet

... well now i got to the point where i cant play it anymore , simply cause its a SINGLE payer game. no internet game , which isnt the best for a game i think ...well NOW i tryed another game (mod for f1c) its porche carerra cup 2003 , its probably known to u all , but if u dont know it TRY IT , we raced on a server yesterday , 16 ppl close to no lag . and 14 of 16 cars ended within 7 seconds in a 18 lap race , NOW how MEGA is that ???? , defenetly i had a few bumps and scrapes on the bodywork , but hey it aint a singleseater , so i would prefer to get my mirrors taken off for less drag and higher top end speed

hehee .... well if any is a bit tired of f1c , or like me just wanna practice some tin top cars u better try it , especially if u dont have GTR ... merry xmas all , hope to see ya on a porche server soon

.Nar member forever, Sirsmoketoolittle AKA Dennis Johansen !!!!

Woohooo!!!!!
I tried 1.7 or something and back then it was only 2 players max, this is GREAT!
I am currently on Japan on Veteran difficulty (the toughest) with my Peugeot 206.....damn hard.

wow....ONLINE! I hope it works well....its 3.40 am here.........hmmm........sleep or rally???

Bilbo · Post by **Bilbo** » 06 Jan 2005, 05:21

Rally then no sleep because of adrenalin high...

carrera · Post by **carrera** » 06 Jan 2005, 16:20

well i will have to say...rally.....because you don't need sleep if you can still drive...save the sleep for when your driving in real life.oh and make sure someone else is there to grab the wheel when you start to go off road...after all...real cars are not made to go offroad right??...thats for virtual cars

hehe...yeah....good piece of advice there Carrera.....good to have you on our team, hah!

I DID infact sleep actually....but woke up "early" and tried it today. Verdict: still needs tweaking....and there wasnt that many drivers there when I was on....when the ghost cars were turned on there was some warping but perhaps it will get better....

still a damn fun game, I hope they can sort it out so multiplayer works good

ok......back to C&C Generals Zero hour.......we're killing them ALL!!!
(10 days left until school starts.....huah)
