Race Driver: Grid

ive had some cracking races online over 7 laps with damage on, but tbh its pot luck whether you find a decent bunch of like minded peeps who want a proper race ..

the full game will apparantly let you have private race sessions and tons more options so for now i'd just perservere with online shenanigans knowing the full game will solve these problems.
i guess the people who mess around arnt the people who are going to buy it

still going to buy this tho ill be happy with the single player if the online turns out to be a mess

havent had a decent racing game for a while now
 
I lost my entire weekend to the Multiplayer on the demo. Its great fun and I can actually win! I have pre-ordered this for £20. Cant wait!

Lol, this is true. I love racing sims, but I am just having a blast playing something more forgiving. It's just plain fun.

This is the game where I am even tolerating (and in some cases enjoying!) the presence of idiots! I find immense pleasure in being able to navigate a smokey graveyard of cars at full speed.

It's great that most people don't know not to fully rev your car on the starting line, feels great just tanning it past 3 or 4 cars straight off the line. If you start off in last, it's pretty important not to try and find 1st straight away. If you take that first corner a little slower and as close to the inside as possible, pressing look back to check out the steaming scrap yard as you floor it is emense.
 
small config change and vrooooom

Open with notepad
Find <postprocess enabled="true" blur="true"

Change to <postprocess enabled="false" blur="true"
Save

You will lose motion blur & depth of field as well tho.

it was quite straight forward, ingame create nickname and password and off you go ...
 
I think if it's telling you unable to create account it might be because the name is taken. It doesn't specify. I tried Lyon to no avail, Lyon85 worked fine.
 
Is the full game out yet?

I am running on the demo and it never seems to save my custom control config :\. Seems to perform ok, 8xaa, 1680x1050, shame there is no other settings, gets laggy in smoke though, so I will stick to 2-4xaa.
