What mode do you play on? Easy, hard, professional? I dunno what modes you have.

Oh btw, didn't take me long to get back to playing well on cod. Played one in the chamber, went 11 kills without dying. <ok>

There are different level settings. The difficulty setting effects the computer operated cars, this can be set to automatic, easy, intermediate and hard I think. However, there are also setting for your own car such as the racing line on the track being shown, braking assist, transaction control assist, etc.

We had the opponents on intermediate in the co-op season we finished last night. However, DR and I choose different settings for our cars. I think DR had full braking assist but partial racing line. I have the full racing line and medium braking but will be lowering this to low from now on; I had it on medium because I didn't know the tracks. Not that I know them like the back of my hand but I have raced them all now and there is only one step forward IMO and that's to just do it. No doubt that will mean me majorly ****ing up in some races.
 
Good shout on the qualifying and only one of progressing <ok> My problem with the one lap is my competitiveness, I want to be on pole and probably try too hard to get it which inevitably ends with a **** up putting me near the back <doh>

Not sure if it would be different online though as this would be a bit silly. If I get chance, I'll have a read on the website <ok>

I like the Lotus but, performance wise, I'm not sure the Lotus would be much different to the AMG? Yeah, lets go McLaren <ok>

Mclaren gets our signature then!

We come as a pair Mclaren (they only wanted you to sign <yikes>)

Thats what I mean, would be good if I could go to another team, Redbull and you race for Caterham <whistle>

Did you say Red Bulls are **** to drive, are they?

I once went no braking assist you know, what a joke that was. Its v hard, have you tried it all yet?

1 lap good as like you say one **** up and your back of the grid

Im not sure about this ghost car stuff, I know it makes more sense for online play but takes away some of the realism you get on one player

I do hope not pal <ok>

I brought it down to high, practiced a bit on med and it was to much. High for me is a step forwards trust me!
 
Your off work tom arent you?

We need to start booking the same days off mate, you send me any more days you have off <laugh>
 
Not sure how it is for the UK but aren't the new consoles meant to be released next week?

Not sure mate, Enricky will know more. Ive not paid much attention as i always wait (usually teething problems first 6 months or so) and I cant afford one yet! But its not high on my priorities atm

You always get everything before us though over the pond! <grr>

Not sure mate. I'm a bit ****ed off with the xbox one anyone. It's costing a small fortune and alot of the 'special features' in it's selling points won't work in the UK and are specific to the USA anyway so I'm not sure why the price is so high over here <grr>

Like what?
 
I normally wait to DR, but do have the green to make it happen. Tempting I must say!
 
Like you will see they are still selling it over here like it includes all the features as 'it's part of their vision' even though it won't actually work <ok>

My mates the same, he does it with every Xbox (pre orders). He had 4 new 360's! <yikes>

You get a guarentee obv so if it does break, and you can be arsed sending it back etc fill your boots! <ok>
 
<ok>

Oh well, I only play games on mine. I watch a dvd on the dvd player, I watch tv on my tv, I listen to music on my stereo etc etc

Same here to be honest.

It just pisses me off they we are paying more for the console than the US and we aren't getting the features they are getting. So what exactly is the premium price for ? I find it hard to justufy the best part of £500 for a gaming console.

Absolutely but it will come down in price

Have you seen the trailer for Titanfall? That looks a good game (Enricky brought my attention to it)
 
What console have you got ghosts for? 360 or Xbox 1? Because they're releasing one on one console and then on the other ****ing blagging batards

None, I'll get it on ps3 (pre ordered that too). Dunno what Xbox are doing but if you buy it on ps3 and you want it on ps4 then it's just a £10 upgrade, so you don't have to fork out £45 on the game again.

I imagine xbox will do that tbh.
