Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.
Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
The PGR4 Thread. Oh god it's pretty.

Not to mention it is sooooooooooooooooooo much fun to bump people around online, often times causing them to spin out and lose the race, and have them get so pissed off at you that they yell obscenities over their mic.
Yes, I'm an asshole.
I wish I had some 3D glasses lying around
Keep it. Have you played "bulldog" mode online yet? TONS of fun
I actually kind of sort of started to get used to the bike cockpit view when I was forced into a Suzuki for a career invitational event (and I decided to take the game's word for it that I was doing an off-the-seat stunt), but it was a pretty wide-open and uncomplicated St. Petersburg track. I'm guessing I should keep Dramamine handy if I want to do that Shinjuku track with the 360+ spiral ramp.

It's hilarious! I feel like I'm driving the world's fastest vacuum cleaner. And it only has two gears.
It was really confusing playing with no HUD. More than normal I mean.

The demo is meant to be up sometime soon. I read a story to say as much a week or two ago.

Yeah..i came in dead last and lose the championship..i managed to struggle to the last race getting first and seconds with many, many restarts but finally i just gave up..i'd picked the Benz CLK-DTM AMG..which it turns out i can't drive at all, ev ery turn no matter how slight or how slow would send me into a series of power slides which would cut all my speed before i got out of them..i was all over the track D:

If you want an easier time in the stages, pick a vehicle that has a rating of easy. That doesn't mean it lowers the difficulty of the stages, it's just the difficulty in using/racing the vehicle.
That car is pretty easy to drive if you use the analog control on the gas. Like don't either just be gunning it or not using the gas at all, ease onto the pedal as you start to accelerate.
It's region free, at least the NTSC version will play on PAL as I imported it also and it's running quite nicely at the moment.

You don't get to break your cherry on a car and get used to it, they're just thrown at you randomly. The track map in the lower left corner is small and un-detailed that you can't get a feel for what is coming up most times, and there are so many cars being thrown at you that its next to impossible to find your niche car and stick with it seeing as physically you don't get the same cars.
Score one for a should of rented.
I just bought the car pack with the 4 high-end Ferraris, and I can't wait to give 'em a whirl.
I dunno, I play with the map off entirely. Have you tried both the zoomed out and zoomed in map options?
You can usually choose from the set class in a championship, so theoretically you could have an F car, an E car, a D car, and so on to get used to and really good with.
i'm on that right now..its fun..but..i keep losing by a margin of 1-2 seconds and its driving me crazy. But i love the whole "drift?! NO DON"T DRIFT!!! aww fuck i'm going backwards again" feeling

It was hard at first, but eventually you just start to get the hang of how you're suppose to handle that car. You'll still screw up sometimes, but with far less frequency. It's pretty easy to beat, actually. They give you more than enough time to beat it. I had several minutes to spare by the end of it.
Now the hard one is the time versus kudos challenge. The race is timed, but you can stop the clock by earning kudos. You're tight for time the whole race, and I beat it with only a second to spare.
I did that last night, I drove through it all at a pretty moderate speed, and I thought I was doomed to horrible failure, then I finished it with over a minute to spare. Kick it up a notch guys. :winky:
pfft, drive through at a moderate speed? I'm a man, its full throttle or not at all

even in forza i'm on automatic right now. I never remember to shift gears when using a pad. I need a wheel.
This is in spite of driving an actual manual car all the time.
So, nerf cars, mirite?
Heh, I blew that race by a full minute. I only completed it because I thought I would be able to keep the 10k kudos that I earnt even if I didn't finish the race; this was not so.
With practice, I could have completed it in time. That car gets a good top speed, but man if you so much look at a curve the wrong way, it's donut time.
the only thing i can absolutely never win with a bike are those speed camera events, with where they're usually positioned on the track i find it almost impossible to get a bike up to a comparable speed i'd be able to do with a car for the majority of them

Oh man, you're sporting a FUMBBL sig, do you still play that? Edgie has been bugging me for a game lately, that's some fun stuff.
To keep on topic, I just did the Lambo Concept M invitational, that was some slip slide hijinks.
Go to your gamer profile settings, where you can change look inversion, difficulty, etc., and I think it's there.
Also fuck time vs. kudos challenges. Why do I suck at them so much?
yeah, i still play the odd game on weekends..although pubbies kinda suck because..well..i always lose D: ...and..on pgr4 topic... i've never played one before and it took me an hour of googling to figure out geometry wars waves was in the garage :oops:
