Ive only played the training, and it rocks!

Cant wait for this. Just played some GTR. Way to serious. Last lap with a 20sec lead and before the last corner the freaking engine blows.

Need some wacky fun to calm me down.

@ DEeRaY - Sweet Avatar, dude! Why does your name tae so muck longer to type that any other name? Anyway, I want in on the action too. What time do you guys start playing? Where do you usually play?

Thanks man! Ye we play in the RSA server... Usaully pretty busy, its good practice but u get tons more points on the overseas servers... i think its cause we dont really have that many players yet...

But ya come join us... good clean fun

Screeper · Post by **Screeper** » 14 Feb 2006, 09:33

There is really only ever one SA server running. So just login and under Suggested Servers there will be one called Shrimps SA Server or something like that.
We'll all be in there.
Pretty empty in the afternoon but from about 5pm onwards it gets busy.

A good clean evenings fun

capanno · Post by **capanno** » 14 Feb 2006, 09:35

I couldn't see the RSA server in the suggested servers box last nite. I opened all the servers, click on the "looks like 2 folders" icon on the left and the it brought up a list of all the countries with the amount of servers, I then selected RSA and then Shrimps server.... I was the only one there for about 2 minutes and then all of you started flooding in...

I'm running on an iBurst 1MB line... Not perfect for gaming, but does the trick....

Mal · Post by **Mal** » 14 Feb 2006, 10:18

Just downloaded it! cant wait to play! too bad im at work!

Screeper · Post by **Screeper** » 14 Feb 2006, 10:30

Yes it is an very well designed game in terms of connections. Even the grimest of connection speeds still seem to work just fine.
Would imagine with the slower speeds, the auto updates that sometimes pop up as you connect will take a while but in actual game play it seems no problem at all.

See you all this evening, altho i'll be late - Valentines meal with gf comes first

DiMitRy · Post by **DiMitRy** » 14 Feb 2006, 10:36

That goes for me too... Dinner with gf first & then gaming...

TX...it wasn't aimed at you thou!

Screeper · Post by **Screeper** » 14 Feb 2006, 23:01

All it takes is practise.
The more you're there the better you get. Once you know the tracks then you can concentrate on improving your lines and stuff.
The first few are bound to be terrible cos you can never remember whats coming round the next corner.
I find that sometimes stopping just before a section that is troubling you and watching the good guys come past helps a lot with chosing the best lines. Watch for RSA TURBO in particular, that guy is a freakin rocket!
