When EA have finished messing around:
http://largedownloads.ea.com/p ... on/NFS_Carbon_Demo_EU.zip

Oh dear...
now you have to play LFS instead of NFS... 0.o

seems to work now

yay! i was right .. what a good day for it to come out on too, its crappy outside (has been all day long; rain has been comming down across half the nation the past like 6 hours lol

oh god.. nevermind lol it says its going to take 24 hours to finish HAH!
7 kb/s lol..

oh dang screw that!
i just waited like 20 or so minutes and got to 2%, and just went to gamershell and within 1 minute im already up at 2% with it
http://www.gamershell.com/news/33885.html
servers are probably not feeling to good lol but if you want it bad enough.. thats the place to get it

(getting it now at around 360kb/s .. as compared to 7kb/s lol)

I tried it for fun and it's total rubbish... Completed the 650mb demo in ca. 10 min

The physics are waaay off...

Dude, it's an ARCADE game, not LFS.

I might download this demo.
I mean if I do buy it i'll buy it for PS2 but hey, I gotta find new ways to mess the computers harddrive up.

I tried again and its gonna take an hour to download, but better than the 12hours i gave me before.

170 kbps

have a nice german site
for those who can understand lil bit bit german http://www.k-files.de
they give always max download speed (for me that is 700 kb/s)

the drifting is deffinetly wierd, and i definetly dont like it (it has completely different physics than when your just driving around on a racetrack)

but whats really fun is taking the SS onto the canyon run in the demo is a rush .. it slides everywhere its awesome

well IMO....NFSU was better :worried:

plz tell me this was a joke and ur not serious

On 80% now. Should be finished in about 15 minutes. Only started it about 30 minutes ago. It actually says it should be finished in 9 minutes.

Anyway, I bet it doesn't work because it'll need some drive that I haven't got or spmething like that.

worked fine here; i can run everything at max at 800x600 (i could run AA but i choose not to.. 4x doesn't make much difference at such a low resolution apparently [or didn't seem to])

the only thing is that it wont let me turn on motionblur, nor road reflections.. so
which i could have both on for all the other NFS' starting with underground

Uh, not for me. I liked the 2 NFSU's, but this, just like MW, doesn't tickle my fancy one bit

I find it better then most wanted. but you can't beat the first underground

Just as I expected, mine won't play. I start it up and everytime, it says it's encountered an error and needs to close. Happens everytime I download a game.

All I get is stuttering sound any ideas how to fix it?
Iv'e tried updating sound drivers.

D/L'ing now from gamershell.com @ 440KB/sec. Should have it in about 20 minutes. I've been playing a lot of Most Wanted lately and having a blast.

I got fed up of EA's dl so I got it from gamershell (took bout hour and half)
And the problem with my sound was dxdiag had sound set to no acceleration so I put it to full

The Camaro is sick!, in a good way (you'll find out )

The game is complete junk as usual, the stering is ultra delayed, it looks like crap, and the drift mode is a joke

BUT there is one good thing about it (LOL!! )

i saw that too lol

i almost said something but then i saw "top" in the middle of it

the drift mode is weird.. there is no countersteering involved, you just.. turn into the turn for as long as you want and then try to get the timing for the next; but outside of a drift.. its correct and feels right so.. im still waiting for the game

what are you talking about orion, the graphics look amazing

"if you have what it takes to balance the gas and brakes through a perfect apex"

:ices_rofl

Tried the demo, deleted it 5 minutes later. 'Nuff said.

Maybe I just don't "get" arcade racing games.

amazingly blurred and crappy... real life doesnt look like this

I disabled all effects and set the res to 1600x1200 - much better than 1024x768 with all those effects.
