Great shout! Where you had the little defending men firing from the turrets of the castles!

Lol! I remember a rolling road day in Padiham where they were sat on the front wings in order to help the thing gain traction! That must be 11 years ago now. I thought it had gone to that great big Scrap Yard in the sky by now?? :up:

Showing your age there m8! If we're going down the Cinemaware route, I'd love a revamp of Rocket Ranger and It Came from The Desert. They did a rehash of Wings! on Steam recently and it's very faithful to the original game. Played that thing to death on the Amiga.

HOLY s**t...... :hushed:

It's night and day difference having a wheel - it honestly is. Get the feedback setup right and you can feel when the front end is getting light or you cut across the rumble strips. As you've probably seen in the options menu of Project Cars, it supports plenty of wheels right out of the box...

Yeah - don't go for auto m8 - they have the awareness of a blind sloth, fingering its own hoop. You might get the next gear in the next second or a week next Thursday. I actually find the auto box more of a pain for not downshifting enough - or keeping the engine in gear long enough - dependent...

I liked black on mine so much, that I had it done twice. With a decent clean and some tyre gel on, it looked amazing. As in other threads, I borrowed some 2118's in white once and they looked great too. If I was having the OEM ones refurbed, I wouldn't go for standard amphasite. No point. I...

Really struggling with network speed. I know my internet connection is dogshit, but even on 16-player maps - the orange connection symbol flashes up every now and then. 24 player is very touch and go - 40 and 64 player ones are a pipe dream for me. :pensive:

Haha! I love the bots - they REALLY should have them in an SP/co-op option. Pretty sure I had a 70+/0 K/D ratio from the Titan Mode in BF2142 too. But as I spent the whole round in an underbelly turret of the Titan, raining death upon the opposing team below, it wasn't that much of a challenge!

It's gripped me more than BF4 ever did.

Wha? Were you in a vehicle to achieve that? I did manage a K/D of 99/0 once against the bots in BF2.... :P

Hi m8. Yep, not worth it for the campaign mode alone - although what is there, is certainly enjoyable. You do get an unlock for finishing too, iirc? Had a dabble online and managed a K/D of 2/14 - by that, totally useless! Combination of zero map knowledge, far better players and the icing on...

Lol - while I agree, there are some truly awful and expensive systems out there. Some of those Buddy Club things on EP3's sound crap. In fact, beyond crap.

I'm slightly dubious with the VR stuff - until I have a proper go with a decent setup. My main concern is the actual interaction between you and your immediate environment. VR would work amazingly well when you're 'fixed' in place - say with a wheel and pedal setup in Project Cars. Glancing...

Started downloading it again last night - more to see the eye-candy on the 1080 compared to my previous SLi setup which The Division seemed to constantly like breaking.

It has a campaign mode? Nice - one thing I thought was missing from the original tbh. PC players can get the original game for £4.39 off cdkeys at the minute - if you want to get a feel for the game. Origin are giving away the season pass for free too - so that's a lot of game for less than a...

I can see the problem there m8 - you can't be expected to know everything about several ranges of cars. But arguably, the RS section is the flagship representation of the brand and at a place such as Goodwood - there really should be a handful of dedicated staff there. These dealership tents...

I like that twist at the end of the air campaign with the main character. Quite clever! Looking forward to see what the next war story bring. Not gone out of my way to collect all the journals yet - but I might try to reattempt some of the challenges.

I disagree with that in a way. Goodwood is a Mecca for petrolheads. It's not the usual country-bumpkin farm-fare and as such, you can expect the majority of attendees to be focused on all aspects of cars. A manufacturer (Renault) then bestows a select group of people to be stood near or hovering...

Strange - I thought the UK was one of, if not THE biggest RS market for Renault? edit - @OssPoop beat me too it.

Still on the campaign - completed the 'air' section last night and have just started in the Alps as an Italian in what appears to be a juggernaut suit. People who solely go for MP in these games are missing out. There's a good selection of back stories going on, along with opening up the game...

When online play works - it really works. Unfortunately, unless there's a close group of mates who can commit availability to going online (and let's face it, we're not always in the mood) - you're generally stuck with lone Rambo types - or murdered repeatedly as some mid-Western American kid...

I'd say not - purely as it's an extended means of showing you the mechanics of the game. It does frustrate the hell out of me though, as to why bots aren't included as an SP option. Funnily enough, not every FPS player wants to go online. Bots don't have to geniuses either - just an apparent...

The same issue I have. My works phone (in various guises) has been Android and I just can't get on with it. The phones - in particular the higher-end ones are very good pieces of kit. If I could just get iOS on one these and it work as flawlessly as my iPhones have - I'd be happy!

That's not bad for the total cost on that image. To buy a Plus one outright is £919.

Finally in the air with the campaign now - a blind one armed chimp could fly those things. Piece of piss! No doubt I would get utterly schooled online though.

As you're paying in Euros, check what the current price of GTX 1080's are over there. Since the knee-jerk panic of Brexit over here, they are north of £700 for the likes of the EVGA FTW version. I paid £570 for it a few months back. Clearly a big chunk out of your budget, but it will certainly...

Still liking the campaign mode so far - I'll be completing before venturing online. All the controls seem fine with K&M on the PC except the inventory! For crying out loud DICE, how difficult and how many hurdles do you have to program in place in order to make it the mess that it currently is...

Exactly. Isn't half the fun of these games finding out what works for you and what doesn't? I remember on Bad Company 2, THE gun to get was the M416. Once a few people had it - EVERYONE had it. It was a shite period to be playing BC2 online, tbh.

Always, always do the tutorial and/or campaign in a game like this. Or you get shafted. Thoroughly.
