So, when should we start racing?

How does this friday sound? At 17-18 UK?

[COOLMAN12234555896]

Sounds good.

Oh great, I'm alone with Andy again

I'm not digging the traffic settings, high traffic in 4 races. And traffic on in all the races? It's never been like that before in the Racing League has it?
If we are hoping to be 8+ players in all the races, this certainly won't help the lag issue, and lag really is a issue in racing. Also this really takes some of the skill out of it, since traffic is unpredictable and anyone can risk getting hit by a retarded pedastrian driver. I don't think it's a good idea with traffic at all

[ajbns87]

lol @coolman - I'll be shocked if Dr Mayhem ever shows up !

good teams in general though, surprised i'm with Grease and not against for a change, but it is a nice surprise

think Cake has a very good point about the traffic settings, if it does make the game really laggy and problematic for good racing, i'd strongly reconsider your initial settings Andy

Also I'll do my best to be there this Friday, but no guarantee, next week definite yes though

[AndyGanteks]

Race days 2, 3 and 4 won't have any traffic in most races, this is just for the first racing day, which is mixed vehicles+endurance on Alderney tracks.

Another reason why i added traffic is to spice up the races more, since they are all quite short with 2 laps, so i don't think it's going to cause that much of an issue really?



If traffic causes mass lag after the first race or two, i'll remove it for the other 7-8 races, if it's such a big deal, but i think it won't, and that it'll work smoothly.

I understand that you wanna spice things up and traffic can be entertaining at times, but at least keep it to low traffic then. High traffic with this many people racing will be horrible at best

[Dr-Mayhem111]

I'm down for Friday. When does it start in American Eastern time?

[AndyGanteks]

11:00 EST or 17 UK.
I'll be online tomorrow at 17 UK. Hope to see enough people show up, so that we can do race day 1.

Whoever invented the lamp post:



Other than that, good races. There were some connection problems and some dirty race going on, but it was good.

[CakePicnic]

f*cking piece of sh*t internet and PSN

Also there isn't a single lamp post left standing in Liberty City after AJ's been there

Good races lads, I'm getting my internet sorted out at the meoment so next race night I shouldn't be dc'ing every single race.

Idea: Lamp posts should be an option in GTA V MP Race.
N I love rain. I want a Dukes + Rain combo in the next race night.

Constructors standings. Thor Toys had 3 today, while all the others had 2. Hopefully next time we're on full roster!



And Gangs' standing

Traffic - Definitely Medium and High isn't working. 2 races with it, cars exploded in front of me ...so yeah. For next races, off, parked or low. I hoped the Max and medium may work due to 2 laps, but eventually, they didn't. Oh and those darn lamp-posts.

I'll post details of the Race day 2 soon.

[DneroJohnson]

Hurr durr...

Anyways people, let's not forget who's in your team and who's not.

What I dont understand is how the ground was wet under the freeway in that last race we did.
I thought R* was going for realism in GTAIV

@Dnero thor toys ftw

[DarkKingBernard]

Cake was being raped by sh*tty connection. He could have been 1st I think.

Traffic is only good for trucks and motorcycles.
