Having trouble staying in my pants when I imagine a laser scanned Nordschleife finally in a sim with proper physics. Oohhohoo...

Go on guys, go on.

Applied some sparse-grid supersampling AA with Nvidia Inspector, looks so good now.

Made a new drift video at Mugello, maxed graphics replay again.

Because AC.

PCGW seems to have a fix for that.

Yeah coal is what I ended up using as I spent the available trees in torches, it just takes a lifetime to collect enough of coal to get out of the solar system (200 fuel IIRC).

I had it pretty rough with my first charecter too before this patch. Started on a tiny little first planet with only like 5 trees in it, no NPC villages, no structures or dungeons or anything. Of course it was also the only planet in the whole solar system so I needed lots of fuel just to get out of there. Hard knock life, man.

There's supposedly a charecter wipe coming with the next game balancing patch, I hope I can still keep the stuff inside my ship... it's FULL of precious loot.

Edit: Patch went live, all old charecters and ships wiped.

Heh Tristan, I've found it to be completely opposite regarding street cars and hotlapping.

The E92 GT racer and the Formula are propably the worst cars for me in AC when hotlapping because they're so easy and drama free, then again they also punish you the most for small mistakes. Street cars have their own floppiness and a wider margin for error when tickling the limit of their chassis' that gives me an epic adrenaline rush, both in real life and sims.

Quote from Scrabby :

A GT86 would have a greater chance to be in the game then the Silvia

Actually nope, as Toyota didn't qualify in to the second round of voting while Nissan did. Sadly it'll never get more votes than that GT-R race car.

I'm also going to get a lot of flak for this, but while E30 M3 may be iconic, it's also a shit car when it comes to technical design. While BMW gave it a different floor plate and chassis compared to standard E30's, they still stuck with the catastrophically bad suspension geometry that all E30's share. If given the choice between stock E30 M3 and a S13-S15 Silvia in AC, I'd take the Datsun ANY day.

Real life doesn't have an endless free supply of fresh tires or fuel. Real life doesn't allow you to travel around the worlds racetracks in seconds without paying yourself sick for ferries and flights. Real life doesn't allow you to change your cars setup by clicking your mouse buttons a few times. Real life doesn't allow you to trash your car around without a single worry of your safety or what happens to your car.

Seriously BF, we all know your stupidity is beyond human measures, but atleast try to think for once.

Quote from BlueFlame :

There are many people still driving stock E30's but I honestly have never seen a stock Silvia of any description in my life.

Quote from BlueFlame :

Key word : Average.


It's gonna be a stock Silvia. Why would you want that? Nobody wants it. A stock Silvia is a boring car just like any other average model from Japan. Any Silvia you see on the road has been tweaked.

Is the AC drift spec E30 average too? Silvias are good for one thing, and that is drifting. No way in a million years would they only include a stock model of that car.

I found my stock'ish S13 plenty fun to drive on twisty roads however, same with the stock R32 GT-R.

TIL that I can just "step outside" to try an Alfa 4C or a GT-R and track it without any cost.

Silvia needs votes badly. Why are people so much in to hardcore race cars? I find them the most boring to drive in all sims. With the exception of that Group B Audi, that one got my vote.

Pretty good theory why GT sounds as bad as it does.

I just finished setting up a potato farm inside my ship, can travel around without worrying about food now.

Starbound is a 2D indie game, kind of like Terraria but you can travel around with your spaceship to other procedurally generated planets and explore them. Clocked over 35 hours of playtime already and I'm loving it, even though the beta has some bugs. Anyone else been playing this?

I love the 12c and the Evora, they're so damn forgiving. Though the 12c does bite hard when pushing it very far beyond the limits.

Drift E30 is the star of this patch though, I was grinning ear to ear by pulling some manji drifts at Silverstone straightaways, what a car...

While I've accepted how LFS ended up (although I'd love it to be much more than it is) the music disc comparison doesn't really make much sense.

When you buy an music album, which is a completely different medium in both usage and pricing in itself compared to video games, you ARE buying a complete and finished entertainment product.

You don't buy an album and expect to have it missing certain instruments or vocals from some songs which may or may not be added later after you've purchased it.

I think downloading source SDK is enough to run it, but don't quote me on that. Garrys mod is part of the new humble bundle anyway.

Quote from Hyperactive :

It is imho just mind blowing how pd managed to take the worst parts of gt5 and make it worse. Force players to start with nissan fit. WHY? How could anyone at all think it is a good idea? Best part of the whole gt series is finding your first car with the little money you have. I still remember all the first cars I've bought in every gt game. First game I bought a mazda demo. In the 2nd I bought crx. In the fourth one I bought wv lupo or beetle. Didn't play gt3. And in fifth I bought a mitsubishi fto. Now the game forces you to buy a car that is way too fast and expensive for the novice races... and is a car nobody wants.

Totally agree. Not giving an option for the first car is the most retarded thing PD has done to date, and they've done a lot of stupid crap. I still remember the red RX-7 convertible that I bought as my first car in GT2 and the AE86 in GT3, those were good times.

I was 50/50 about buying GT6 on launch, now after reading first impressions around the web, I have no desire at all to get it.
