Tonights Burnout :>

It's no joke people - ~J~/Whiteroser has mad hackz :(

Must say I had fun joining some random ranked games earlier though - whiney teenage Americans that can't take it when I slip in front of them at the finish by taking the shortcuts :>

At the start of the race, press X X X, B B, RB, RT, RB, RB, A, A, B and hold Start for 2 seconds (do this before the timer gets to 1).

Then, each time you're within 100metres of someone, press the Y button to take them down*.

* that is a joke btw for all those that still think I haxx0r it :p

we all know its the truth dude :) jk, you just good at it. Need to play this again tbh as i ahve been caning DOA4 a bit too much. That makes me think, i so need that acheievement where you have a takedown on everyone, i WILL get that.

Oh yer, played this game on my uncles huge HDTV and you can see so much more when playing, it amazing. So again, those using HDTVs are cheating and will get -ve feedback from me. :)

So are the people i get loads of takedowns on (J, MadFruit - where r u dude,JaggedDan) up for a game soon?
 
Mondays and Tuesdays are always a busy night so hardly any 360 action, but rest assured my engine is been tuned and take-down pedal oiled.
 
Might be on tomorrow but that'll be it till Monday night :)

Packing up to go to a LAN this weekend :>

XBox 360, PC, 24" Widescreen monitor = winnar :>
 
We on for tonight?

I feel the need to crash fast cars without whiney americans claiming I cheated :D


(for the record I took a shortcut :p Central Route Long R)
 
Yeah some good stuff :D

Most fun I've had actually on Burnout - notice I've gotten a tad better now ;)

How I survived that Vertical Takedown attempt on Eternal City Long F when you were red I'll never know :o

For those not playing:

J shunts me on the raised walkway thing, I dodge the archways and drop back down to road level. Somehow J does the same and I get a takedown!! Score Settled!

Getting excited now as I'm 2 takedowns (needed Dolmio Chips too) off 'Most Wanted' I keep driving. Jump down the steps and aim for the shortcut at the bottom. Miss to the right and smash my car up and block the tunnel. J hits my wreck and we both respawn.

Boost away from the crash and straight over the jump. J's car comes in right over the top of mine, lands awkwardly touching the wall lightly and I somehow get a takedown when he was on top of me :o


Pretty intense 30 secs of Burnout right there - great stuff :D
 
LOL - good racing yeah. About the takedowns though, I think the 'problem' if that's what it's called is due to how the game is handled.

I was a bit miffed last night with one of the racers where I 'nudge' them or they 'nudge' me, no damage no nothing, but or 3 seconds later I crash yet it's classed as a takedown.

Over the last few nights been kinda keeping an eye out on these and it seems that if you crash (a genuine crash) within 3-4 seconds of been hit by another car, then that car gets the takedown.

I can understand why, perhaps the logic is saying that "whilst your opponent didn't wreck you direct, the result of your crash is based on actions as a result of the contact with the opponent" so 50/50 on the fairness of that tbh.

Last night (and maybe showing my weakness here), but it definately went to show the advantages and disadvantages of the Plantronics and the other cars. It was a piece of cake to do the vertical takedowns, dodge the crashes and take the corners as if I were on air, but the SLIGHTEST knock from another car caused big damage.

Was also nice to have a fellow teammate (Dolmio Chips) who, whilst I still had 2 takedowns over him from a previous game when he was on the opposite team, still played as a team and moved out of the way, didn't attempt any revenge as was proper team work. Not often get that on the Red v Blue so cheers for that mate (although I fully expect some downright nasty action on a clean race ;))

Got tomorrow off work so if anyone's chucking a sicky from work, gimme a shout.

Well its a team game so theres not really any point in taking out your teammates!!!! Will definitely be out for revenge though in non team races.

I work from home so if the schedules not too bad I should be able to get an hour in at some point tomorrow. Let me know what time you'll be playing.

After you left the game last night I entered a 5 round race with loads of high ranked players and finished joint 2nd. Took my ranking from 43000 to about 20000, was well pleased.

One question, my reputation went up last night after playing, do other people have to vote for you or something for it to increase??

Well I voted you a preferred player just incase you're online and the chances of me joining a random game with you in are higher But unfortunately you'll get some sour-faced muppet that will say you've been trash-talking, quitting early or what-have-you even though you've played perfectly legit, so be warned on that one.

*** other damn annoying thing (which you found last night) is people who just quit because they are losing. I mean yeah there's some skill involved in the game, but there's also a matter of luck most of the time and just because a player is 1.8miles behind everyone else doesn't mean they'll come in last. There's a strong, very strong, chance that they'll catch up if other players crash.

But will be on most of tomorrow on-and-off so will keep a look out for ya.
 
Yeah I gave you positive rep too :)

Your damn good tbh - although I had some crazy lag last night. Would be stuck on the grid for a minute then it would start and I'd be 3 odd miles behind :o

I won't be playing from the LAN either though I'm sorry to say - 56k dial up iirc :( Don't think XBL will hang together much over that :p
 
Cheers. I had a bit of lag but only at the start of a couple of races. Also played a few games last night where people deserted after they started losing, bit pointless in my opinion.

Just trying to finish off the rest of the single player at the moment. Theres a couple of burning laps and that road rage in eternal city that are doing my head in!!!
 
Good luck :p

I'm lucky my sofa is only 5 feet away or I might have been on my 10th new controller by now :(

That Road Rage and the Motor City Burning Lap had my ready to tear the house down :o

Did you get all the Signature takedowns yet? I managed it about a week ago - awesome feeling tbh :>
 
Don't know what ya missing mate!

Just look at the excitement on this finish between us....
