Picked this up last week. Having a blast so far.
Online races with 20 people are a scream.
If anyone wants to add me as a friend or rival :pac: my GT is below.

Can't see your GT for whatever reason. What is it?

Also is anyone doing some of the single-player and up for friend challenges? Multiplayer is quite addictive tho, it's a pity the splitscreen isn't online too that'd be perfect.

Had a few games of this last night. I am enjoying it. Only had 3 races online and got creamed two times. Now to start leveling up and get a few cars.

That's the thing as well - you have to level up for cars (and even more importantly mods! They can be crucial at times). Then there are the individual car challenges - the last two rewards for many (for racing / winning a number of times with them) is extra health or extra speed! Not a massive fan of that. The last mode they should have put in was fully customisable racing - set limits, mods off, no challenge boosts, etc (a promod essentially).

Seems as you're on the friends list I must rival you (easy achievements more than anything )

His GT is gobsheen, you have signatures turned off in your control panel On the split screen note, anyone know what the story is when you system link - still four to a console or is it ridiculous and revert to one per console?

Just picked this up int the Gamestop 20e deal. Really liking it, looking forward to giving the multiplayer a go

How does the rival thing work? can you only have one at a time?

So is this game freezing for many people here?

When I'm playing online it freezes every 5-6 games.

Also how do you set someone as your rival? I can't find the option.

It says to choose a friend from the leaderboard to have for a rival i think. Not sure how it works!

Thanks. Found it last night.

I played the Multiplayer demo of this yesterday and instantly wanted to buy it. Looks like a whole lotta fun

Lamposts

Got it today. Great game. If anyone wants a few games later on tonight. Give us an add.

Anyone keep getting the lost connection to server message?

Picked it up yesterday, it's tougher in the single player than I expected, but that's no bad thing. Didn't get a lot of time to play as I was headed to RATM last night. The Beetle Rat Racer is a lot of fun to drive. Haven't quite figured out how to drift properly yet, the handling of the game is strange when you're coming from a Forza background Hoping to get stuck into some multi player action tonight, but I've got a PC to format and Windows 7 to instal, so I'll be on and off for the night.

tman

Think I've completely missed the point of this game thanks to my live sub running out last month and me not bothering to renew it... I've beaten all of the career mode 1 on 1s and just can't be arsed going back to it now, glad that I only rented it in the end now!!

Singleplayer is fun for a while, but overall a fairly disappointing follow up to the almost flawless PGR4:(

Shiminay

The multi-player's where it's at tman, it's a very good laugh. It'll be a great one to play with your mates on split screen too - think of it as being more of a Mario Kart than a PGR.

That's so true ... It's an action arcade racer and the multiplayer is where the fun is to be really had. 4-player local split-screen or online races with 20 people (hectic, but fun).

Still think it's a pity they didn't put all / more of the game modes into split screen - would love a good team battle! Amazing how your finishing position can change from race to race. Won two in a row....and then finished last

I see the leaderboards have been hacked already. Legend 10 in 0mins - hmmmmm

Had some great games with Parawind & Corcaigh last night. Good stuff.

I just finished the single player the other day. Have to say I really enjoyed it. Can never seem to play online though, it always disconnects me. Never had this problem with any other game, just blur. Any ideas as to whats stopping me ? The demo worked perfectly
