[Billy Elliot]

I took the liberty to create a league for the game.

https://www.dirtgame.com/uk/leagues/league/14920/specialstage

League is there, I'm setting it up for a 6 stage rally, once a week, for four weeks. Should start Saturday. I'm allowing a complete event restart in case you drive it off the road on the 3rd turn, since I don't anticipate a whole ton of people on this, would rather have people finishing events to get good more total scores.

Week 1: Greece
Week 2: Wales
Week 3: Monte Carlo
Week 4: Wales (long)

Here is a list of drivers and their forum/steam names:

Signed up!

Looks like a fun idea Billy! I'm still dodging intermittent dreaded "error 41" but the championship has worked most of the time I've tried it. I'll see if I have the time to sign up and get it done (been a hectic week, but should have at least a little free time to play).

 

[Phr00t]

Signed up and ran my stages, good luck!

 

[WorldHazard]

Okie doke. I'm in. Give it a good 'ol college try I suppose.

 

[KTurner]

spin spins spins... getting the hang of the escort. stratos seems a little better planted. need to go and play with the steering controls since it doesn't seem like any input is required compared to RBR even though I'm using the same wheel setup.

 

[FableRT-CoDriver]

I manage on the first stage to loose my front right wheel. Apparently my driver knew how to put back a wheel in between stage. ahahah
Stage 4 got a flat too...

 

[WorldHazard]

Is there a way to review past events standings? I didn't get a chance to compare times on the 2nd event.. All i can view from my profile page on codemasters is the current event...

 

[Morpheus]

Just joined! let's see how well I do with a keyboard -___-

 

[Morpheus]

Ran my stages in Wales. Also ran my car into some logs at 80-100kph. But i still managed to get 1st somehow

 

[Billy Elliot]

For the next event, any thoughts?

Was this a good pace? More stages? Less stages? Shorten the season? Lengthen the season? Etc

I was thinking 8 stages per event next season. I was running 4 short 2 long stages. I'm thinking 4 short 4 long stages?

Also, what we think for car classes? I'd be willing to try 2010 next time around, or GpA.

 

[KTurner]

6 stages was good for me. open to any class really but enjoy the older ones.

 

[NateEllis]

I pretty much quit any event that had rain or snow because my system was glitchy with it.

I too like the older classes.

 

[Phr00t]

I really enjoy the 1970s or the Group A cars, the rest feel weird. And please no rain on Wales, like Nate, it glitches out my system.

 

[NateEllis]

How is the pikes peak pack? Been away for a couple days.

 

[WorldHazard]

I like the current class. Or group A as well.

I'm not a fan of the group b cars, they handle very.. well i guess like a group b car should??

Like the other said, Weather stages make my system freak the ef out. Night stages seem to be a hit or miss with me as to glitches or not..

 

[BobOfTheFuture]

I think it's time to run something rip-snorty up the peak!

 

[KTurner]

Setting weather graphics to Low seemed to fix the rain problems. -1 for Pikes Peak, I have absolutely zero interest in that.

 

[WorldHazard]

i've got all my setting custom to OFF (where possible) then ultra low.

I'm kind of bummed about PP only permitting insane hillclimb cars. I was hoping to mob up it in the mini.

 

[Billy Elliot]

Ok, I'll run some clear/day stages for the next event. I'm going to run 70's cars this time around. I still wish they'd put in the R2 Fiesta. I think that would be a real good car to run! I'm thinking GpA next? Should be close to having the tarmac terror pack, so I'll try to make this season last until then, we'll do 4 events, 6 stages each for the month of June.


Also, everyone put up their Steam tags so I can populate it on the front page so we know who people are that don't use the same name as they do here (like me).

Me = fuct/herpderpenberg
