Isn't that excluding some form of payment or such?

What do you mean?

I'm excited about the forums, I'll keep you updated here

There was something a while ago about the amount not taking into account a certain payment type, I can't remember.

PayPal

EDIT: Just noticed in my Spam email folder the forum invite, woo!

 

[Sprite]

Yep got my forum invite, so keep your eyes open for me on thier forum as I'm using the same user name as here.

I'll keep people up to date here unless I've been beaten to the punch by any others.

That forum is a pain to watch on a mobile phone

I'm also in it with this username there

Agreed on being a pain with Mobile browser.

Wow, this thread sure has gone quiet... Are you all too busy with the forums now? Well, here's a new Drift Stage T-shirt:

@Niku Driver HC to be honest I've not been on their forum much either. I think until the testing starts its going to be a bit slow.

I did ask Charles about the amount of polly's he was using per car & he was kind enough to reply. Aparently around 800 to 900 triangles but some are not optimised.

Can someone ask the devs if players will be penalized for ramming AIs or other players?

That's one ominous picture... 1h and 20mins for something mindblowing about to happen?

1 day 20 hours?

 

[Niku Driver HC]

1 day 20 hours?

That's another way of looking at it, yes. If it was 1 hour, it would something that would happen at 9:00 hours in the morning (American time, I think). It would be too early...

 

[yabiggoose]

It was posted 15 hours ago lol

Haha, I missed that one. Never mind. But still, I wonder what this picture means... A new feature? A new car? A major announcement?

 

[yabiggoose]

Fastest lap in the alpha?

 

[Niku Driver HC]

Fastest lap in the alpha?

The driver would have to be a pro racing driver to pull a time like that... What is the fastest time in the alpha demo, actually?

 

[yabiggoose]

I don't actually know to be honest, I know people have done 1:2x.xxx so I thought it's not a huge stretch?

But maybe lol, I don't pay attention to my times because I know I'm not that good.

You have a point, but I still find a 1:20 time to be rather unlikely to execute... I know I can't pull a time like that, that much I can tell you.

Let us wait and see what comes out of this...

I'm more than willing to admit, I'm probably far off.

It's just it's been 15 hours so your idea, which I thought made sense, isn't too feasible.

Who knows though, it could all just be a joke, haha.

 

[Downhill Dino]

Fastest times in the alpha are in the low 1:17 range actually.

Maybe that's one of the ghost's times? Expert?

Course Maker?
More songs?
Livery editor?
More cars?
Another demo?

Most likely the expert ghost; the Expert ghost was a BMW M1 and you can catch up with him by the 1:2x range..

 

[yabiggoose]

Maybe I'm not so wrong lol

 

[Downhill Dino]

On their forums I've been holding a leaderboard for times. Here's the latest one as of today:

That Shirt looks so awesome

Nothing more to say

Wait... Is that the improved handling model!? Praise the lord above, they do listen (although I do know that already, haha)! 👍 It looks smoother than the alpha, can't wait to test it out myself one day. Maybe it's the result of professional feedback by their partner? (the drift racer, can't remember his name)

 

[Sprite]

It does look like the improved physics. Personally can't wait. Beta testing isn't far off so it's getting close and I'm getting excited.

edit

I can confirm its new physics. I've been reading the dev diary and there are a few more gifs showing off the new suspension model and turn adjustment via throttle feathering.

Had my Kickstarter email through yesterday for my address and t-shirt size. I also bought Myrone's album/EP from bandca the other day, it's well put together.

Very interesting, I am liking these develpments. Just asking out of curiosity, where is this "dev diary" you speak of? I am eager to read that article. Can't wait to see people playing the beta, and seeing what has been improved.

Also, congrats on your purchases, especially that album, how is it?
