I respect you for that. Magic was way too weak in oblivion

Agreed. Oblivion felt like a watered down port compared to Morrowind, that had a magic system that made you feel like a magic user. I'll wait to see what else they take out before buying

Wish they'd put Mysticism back in....That'll hurt mages.

(I went through Oblivion as a mage. Ouch)

Quote from ATC Quicksilver :

I still rate my passenger plane service quite highly, making about £100,000 a year with 7 planes now.

£145,000 a year with 10 planes, £2,000 a month with trains, £60 a bus route

Disegea 3

Watch for him to charge to the front

Quote from DieKolkrabe :

Not got any of that

Advice to start out with? I got 100,000, cities, but no rail links

And as soon as I post that......I get two cities with a coal mine and a power station each. Figures

Not got any of that

IMO Kahne's gonna struggle this year

Quote from UncleBenny :

I thought Bayne signed up for Nationwide points and isn't eligible for Cup ROTY this year.

My bad he isn't. I thought he was eligeble.

Quote from SidiousX :

My picks.

Brian Vickers(FTW!)
Jimmie Johnson
Jeff Gordon
Carl Edwards
Trevor Bayne

Trevor Bayne was the only decent driver I could afford after picking the first four. We'll see.

Auto-ROTY much? Go Vick, JJ can pull a Chicago Bears and choke in the Chase, JG can win and Carl can finish second to Jeff

@Mutt: Lol, optimist! WTH MENARD?!

Quote from UncleBenny :

Haha well yours sounds similar to mine. I have:

Stewart
Jr.
Martin
Ambrose
Logano

Copier!

Cpyingmy lineup much?

Jr
JPM
Ambrose (roadies)
Newman (cut, replaced by Martin)
Jamie Mac

Quote from PMD9409 :

Bumpers should be fine, testing how much the engine can take is the deciding factor.


Also: Check the league, you are now able to choose your drivers for Daytona!

EDIT: Price of drivers determined by Championship position from last year it seems. Jr is cheap!

JJ is expensive. I got Jr too, he's my dark horse pick along with JPM

2000-2001 aero package plz NASCAR

I'm thinking NASCAR needs to take a look at the speeds, 200 is where it ought to be I feel.

You still need original TTDX to play right?

Quote from Nathan_French_14 :

Am I the only one enjoying this game?

I personally think this game is a huge improvement over TDU1. How on earth can you guys say the graphics look exactly the same as TDU1? Are you running it on a bad computer? Are you Blind? Sure, the game does have some graphic similarities to TDU1, but overall it's a much nicer looking game. For a start, the interiors textures are not blurry and low-res anymore (At least not on the cars I have driven!). Driving along a twisty mountain road in an Alfa Romeo at night is awesome.

It's the same things with the Physics. I had a play with the settings, and after I done that, I found them much better. I can drift (And yes, they are hard to catch, but it is possible.), I can light up the rear tyres of my Mustang with ease and pour smoke everywhere. I get lift off oversteer in my Alfa Romeo Mito. My Lotus Espirit is twitchy as hell in corners, constantly transitioning between understeer and oversteer (All common characteristics of an old mid engine sports car, some would say?). Gravity is much better, as the cars are much less prone to launch into the air with the slightest of humps. These are all things that TDU1 did not have. Sure, the Physics are not the best, but what do you expect from a game that is made for people of all ages to play?

The Storyline. It can be a little tedious at first (The licenses REALLY ANNOY ME!) but once you get past the intro, it's quite fun. It gives you something to aim for. Another great thing is the quests, like finding the junk cars! I'm really enjoying trying to find them all. I already found the Buggy and VW beetle, and I'm currently looking for the 4 others in Hawaii. The great thing about finding these junk cars, is that some of the routes you have to take to find them are really epic. There is one road in Hawaii that is all mountain/dirt roads, and stretches from one end of the island to the other. I done the whole road in a Subaru Impreza STi with one of my buddies, and it was epic! One of the highlights was my friend doing a long drift in front of my car, only for someone in a Audi Q7 to come round the corner and plow into him, sending him flying down the mountain. By the time I spun my car around to see him, he was still barrel rolling down the mountain, and continued doing so for a little longer until he got wedged into a Tree. It was hilarious.

Another thing I love about this game, is the improved social aspects. The servers are playing up a little at the moment (Atari are currently fixing them.) but when they were working, they are great fun. I spent a few hours inviting friends to my recently bought Mansion (You can now decorate your Houses on TDU2, as well as adding custom pictures and paintings.) and they were free to roam around it and look in my Garage. We then decided to take a cruise down to the Casino 35 miles away. I put some music on, one of my Friends hopped in the passenger seat, and we were off. When we got to the Casino, we did some Poker, Slot Machines, bought some clothes etc. It really has improved in Social terms, and you can do a lot more with your friends now.

There are some things I dislike about the game though. Despite the graphics being better then TDU1, there are two issues that really bug me. Occasionally, you will see Trees on the horizon appear out of nowhere as you get closer to them. Also, mountains will sometimes lose there texture quality for a few seconds, then go back to high resolution. This has only happened to me once though. Apart from that, the game suffers from the typical TDU glitches. Some cars have incorrect gauges (The Buggys Rev counter goes 1-2-3-4-6-5-6-7 ) and others will also read the incorrect speed/RPM. This doesn't really bother me too much as I am concentrating on the road, but it can be annoying. Not being able to get rid of competitors cars (I now have a horrific pink mustang in my garage full of exotica. It looks great...:really and the on/off pedals are annoying too, but I'm hoping these will be patched later on.

So hate all you want, but I absolutely love this game and I am well and truly addicted. If it wasn't for my TV deciding to spontaneously combust earlier Today, I would still be playing it.

QFT

I can spend hours driving about or messing with stickers

Carl never lifts though, did you actually EXPECT him to get out of the throttle?

I thought JJ moved over on Carl just befoe the big one and touched him, anyone else notice that?

Also......Our league starts next week. All 4 of my picks wrecked >< (I went for Conway, Montoya, Jr and Logano)

Quote from Rappa Z :

Find all the car wrecks and you get a bonus car!

A VW Beetle.:banghead:

Either its a hell of a Beetle...or my Merc's slow around bends. Dune buggy's beast offroad however. Not too shabby on road either

I forgot about AJ, and agreed, NASCAR needs to come down hard on any driver who gets a DUI. Why? Well. Rumors were (later confirmed) that Aaron Fike used heroin prior to races and that (unconfirmed) both Jeremy Mayfield and the late Tim Richmond drove while high. Now, imagine if rumors start about a driver with a DUI driving while drunk?
