I was texting a friend of mine today and he was lamenting that he's getting bored with FPS and I said that I was sure he wasn't alone and that the future of FPS was definitely a more immersive, interactive environment, perhaps even 360. I'll look like a prophet now when I forward him that video. If I can convince him to set that up in his basement I might get back into it myself...:idea:

It sounds like you've more than thought about it haha. Throw a paypal donation link in the OP and see what happens :dopey:

I'm personally a little hesitant on investing all the money needed with GT5's less than desirable network. I wonder if the money would be better spent purchasing a decent computer for PC racing...thinking out loud...

The eagerness to turn in is what kills me with the Alfa, I end up turning too early or getting over confident and leaving it too late. It seems the more aggressive I am with it, the better I drive, which was the opposite of the cappy. If I was aggressive with that, it tried to kill me. I'm still having trouble with it, except that test we did round tokyo. I killed that circuit for some reason.

How the :censored: is that supposed to discourage me?!? Lol The added sense of speed from the side monitors is just incredible and adds so much to the experience. Obviously it wouldn't be quite as good as the triple projector iRacing setup but it would still be an order of magnitude better than what I currently have. That Sebring/iRacing video is the best setup I've seen though, almost looked like a 1:1 scale to real life.

If I invested $600 now I'd probably be able to get almost half that back in a year or two if I decided to sell them or needed the money. Oh crap, now I'm justifying it!!!

Back to Alfa discussion before I do something expensive/stupid. :lol:

LMAO @ Brandon

Just do it... Don't torture yourself. lol

This is where smoothness comes in and using the throttle to control the attitude of the car, something I thought was missing in the Cappy...lol. Messing with the brake balance might help too.

Another tangent...is that your Evo in your Avatar Jeff? Looks real mean, loved that style.

Lol!! something tells me we are gonna be seeing pics and video from someones new setup real soon...

I'll wait for a better technology ;)
Something along the lines of 3d glasses.

Yes. Thanks, I do believe that was the cars first trip drag racing with me as the owner.

Anyone doing any testing? I need to get used to this car! Haven't yet driven it at all!

^ There might be some tomorrow, I suppose.
Otherwise jump into one of the ORCA lounges, post here and someone might show up.

Id be up to take out the alfas, post here if u wanna get on, I dont want to go upstairs if I dont have to

2.02 seems cool. A lot more options to removed HUD parts. SP kart isn't a shifter. No idea what it is SP.

[AngryTeenagerRant] Damn it... WTF! [/AngryTeenagerRant] lol

:lol: Sorry, but this really made me laugh.:lol:
STI must have an entirely different meaning over here!

The SP kart has a different paint scheme. It goes away if you paint it. I am disappoint.

STI is the super version of the Subaru WRX. Subaru Technica Internationale


Well, this new update brought some nice features that we'll be able to use for our league but it's also given us one gigantic kick in the crotch; DLC tracks can no longer be raced online by people that don't own the DLC tracks. Since we have Spa as one of our scheduled tracks that puts us in a real bind if some of our racers don't own the track.

This boggles my mind, it has essentially made the DLC tracks next to useless. No A-Spec events for them, no Seasonal events for them and now we can't use them in a league because some people may not own the track. I don't know why I'd even bother buying any new tracks if this is the new policy. Luckily I have Spa scheduled as the final race for the season so maybe this policy will change before we get there, but it looks like I'm going to have to find a "Plan B" track to have as back up since Spa will most likely have to be removed from the schedule. :tdown: I'm so massively disappointed by this that I can't even be excited about all the other great features they've added/fixed.

Anyone going to test in ORCA lounge this afternoon 14:00 GMT?
