4 Robbers
6 Cops

Place: Nurby Nordy

Aim

Robbers;
To get round the Nurby Nordy back into pits, the "escape zone."
If you are rammed off track, you are out.
If you slide off track by your own mistakes, you can go back on.
If you purposely cut the track, again this is allowed so you can get back on track.

Cops;
Ram all robbers off track before they escape.

Rules.

Robbers;
300BHP limit (tuning down is only allowed if its no more than 100BHP higher, eg Clio V6 400 to 300 (Y), Gallardo tuned down to 300 (N))
Weight 1000KG MINIMUM, no lower.
Cutting Track is allowed.

Cops;
600BHP limit (tuning down is only allowed if its no more than 100BHP higher)
Weight 1000KG, no lower.
Cutting track not allowed.
Going backwards on the track is only allowed to set up road blocks, not head on collisions. Once robbers stopped, or gotten through, they must wait for the chaser cops to appear to then be able to go after the robbers.



Original post

I came up with the idea to play this game with a few friends in the open lobby, and it worked out very well, providing you were honest. We would set up restrictions that was honoured by the robbers, and the same for cops for example, 200hp for robbers, and 500hp for caps, all within the same weight eg 1000ish with 100 leave-way.

The game was set on the (using someone else's words here) the Nurby Nordy with the GP track in it, and we had short and long races, the short with robbers getting 10-20 secs head start depending on the powers and finishing when you enter the Nordschlieffe part, and on the long version 1 minute, with 3+ for the X1 if we let them be used.

Robbers would lose if their cars overtaken, and win if they pass the line to the "escape zone."

Cops vice versa.

All in all, it was a very good time, and I thought it was worth mentioning on here for others to try. Imagine if Kaz implemented this into GT5, being able to choose teams, and then the host able to force restrictions and times, so no cheating would be done, and when robbers were overtaken, the cars engine would stop working, so the would have no means of moving till the chase is done. I think this could be very interesting.

It was incredibly fun, as for that other thread, it looks as if it has stopped because the last post was done on the 5th of jan. I might organise one of these lobbys, but not tonight as I've done it already, feel free to organise one yourselfs, but I will probably organise one tomorrow if you like? put your names down if you would like to join. Details will be done later.
 
Looking at that video, it looks as 2 ideas can be done, the one on the Nurby Nordy, and passing a line to win, or doing the same on the video. fun fun fun. :)

for the Nurby, another way that you can win is to enter the pits without being overtaken.
 
I think it would be more fun if the cop had to ram the robber off the road. It would cause for a late lap frenzy and some insane manuvers!
 
That would be fun! create this on GTP feedback and send link to this thread! Im sure some people will vote for it.. this is brilliant idea! would bring some arcade game feel to GT5 and in this case in a good way!
