dandannieldanok Posted 16 September 2008 Posted 16 September 2008 Yeah, and you can put the mechanics thing at 100 in driving style. Is there anywhere that actually tells you how characteristics affect the sliders, I fear I'm missing an opportunity. Joined a public game, bagged a Ferrari. Why am I never that lucky, everytime I go to join the crap cars are the only ones left.
Asha Posted 16 September 2008 Posted 16 September 2008 Why am I never that lucky, everytime I go to join the crap cars are the only ones left. When the new game appears, there's hundreds of other players waiting to bag a decent car. Within seconds, Ferrari, McLaren and BMW are gone and password protected, so even a slight pause like thinking about your characteristics costs you. After about 10 minutes it's down to just Honda, SA and FI.
lildave3 Posted 16 September 2008 Posted 16 September 2008 Why am I never that lucky, everytime I go to join the crap cars are the only ones left. I always seem to have a Ferrari or Mclaren, or at worst a BMW
dandannieldanok Posted 16 September 2008 Posted 16 September 2008 I always seem to have a Ferrari or Mclaren, or at worst a BMW I'm not amused <_< I've had to be Toro Rosso and Super Aguri so often that I'm not actually allowed to be them until I use some different cars! I would if I could.
Floating Fox Posted 16 September 2008 Author Posted 16 September 2008 Both spots at Spyker are free atm. Sam wanted to play, get him on-board DAVE?
Brainy Posted 16 September 2008 Posted 16 September 2008 Is there anywhere that actually tells you how characteristics affect the sliders, I fear I'm missing an opportunity. Not sure how old these are Thinker - Car Setup Pace Pole Sitter King - Qualifying Pace Concentration - Overall Pace (Dry) Wet Weather Warrior - Overall Pace (Wet) Mechanical Sympathy - Mechanical sympathy (might help with tyres) Committed - Pit Stop Speed (You) Charisma - Pit Stop Speed (Team) Control Freak - Race Start Cool - Aggression Aggressive Aggression Spatial Awareness Aggression Super Fit - Avoids slowdown at the end of the race? Consistent - Levels out lap times Speed Demon - Probably just a general speed bonus Lucky - I guess just a way to reduce accidents etc... Bender - Good for blocking/taking out other drivers? Wisdom - Increase general skill?
Brainy Posted 16 September 2008 Posted 16 September 2008 I think thats why you sometimes see "Matijas is out of the race! Southam laughs it off" or whatever.
AoWW Posted 16 September 2008 Posted 16 September 2008 Bloody male drivers who can't do a simple thing (like steering!) without running into folks. Hmmph!
lildave3 Posted 16 September 2008 Posted 16 September 2008 Qualified 4th in my first session in a Ferrari.

dandannieldanok Posted 18 September 2008 Posted 18 September 2008 My word, 5 seconds off the pace in practice, 4+ seconds off the pace in warm-up, this car is painfully slow.
