Why was the green car removed though? Having him as a constant danger was awesome. :cry:
This is a regression. Everything else is cool though.
Oh the amis asshole on the highway or the lil green car on the country road? If it's the latter I can understand cause he keeps getting stuck anyway and he doesn't fuck off when the rally starts.
If it's the green menace I would assume it's the Eurodeath machine. Since you can now hitchhike from the country car it's unlikely it would be removed.
Well I guess I can worry less now about some asshole being on the wrong side of the road.

There was a pretty neato interview by dome few days ago [url]http://muropaketti.com/dome/peli/artikkelit/my-summer-car-suomalainen-hittipeli-syntyi-autovaras-sarjasta[/url] It's in Finnish but google translate will probably do fine. Though I'm bored tomorrow and might do a translation.

I cannot phantom how fucking terrible the van drives. I use the sewage truck to drive around the map, no fucks given about the fuel consumption. I've parked the van in front of the garage so it serves as a floodlight during the night, and I'm using the tractor if I crash the sewage truck and I need to get it. That thing is a deathtrap on wheels :v:

Had my buddy over and he tried the game >goes into the living room and taps F to open the present >drinks the booze by accident you know this is gonna be good now >fumbles to the kitchen and grabs the crate of beer victory beer >goes outside >slams the beer crate through the van door >hops in >punches out the windshield and flips it off victory beer >spends 5 minutes trying to start the van, more tipsy than standing in a canoe victory beer for starting it >slams it into gear, hits the house, does 4 donuts and eventually drives down the road, takes a right to go to town, drinking beer as he goes Me(with an evil grin): "lets try second gear" >Bombs down the road, hits a hill on the left, flips it, rolls it twice, van is now on its side .... victory beer :v: >manages to flip it >slams it in reverse by accident >drives it down the right side of the road, on to its roof Ends the night with drinking victory beers until he blacks out Come my turn I take the septic truck for a rip. Get to the highway, about 7 beers deep, drink the booze bottle.... get up to 6th gear... reach over to the passenger seat... ... drink the second booze bottle from the wood shed :v: sweet mother of christ it got scary after that, I couldn't see a thing. There was a green blob I swerved to avoid, hit a hill on the left side of the road, and launched the truck into the trees I fucking love this game
I don't think I have the patience to build the car myself. I always try starting on the engine then get bored and quit. That doesn't stop me from having fun in the game though. I just spent half a hour causing car accidents on the highway! A) Fill the van full of firewood. B) Make piles on the highway C) Watch cars launch in the air or flip multiple times on the road. I wish we had the NPC's vehicles. They are much more durable. The white car with the shop salesman was all bent up and he managed to drive off easily.

Man, I'm so disappointed. I took my trailer with ramp materials to the highway and was causing more crashes. I crashed the yellow van man and we were going to be best friends at my house [IMG]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/168156416797881072/9F2468EDE63D7EE80AF15DFB92A9DEB590AB8A74/[/IMG] but..... he disappears when I try to take him back to my place.

It's weird how everyone manages to find novel ways to die in a game with relatively little content. I got killed on the highway in the shit truck recently because I drank an entire case of beer on my way home from Teimo's and tried to shake the bottles off by opening the door and doing an aggressive lane change maneuver. I had the rear axle up and 10k litres of poo on board so I lost control and crashed into a van.
Oh man. Today for the first time ever, I managed to get the engine up and running. I was excited, so i took it around the house. I'm not good at the gear changes so it was a bit stuttery, then it died. Okay whatever, I expected this. I stop, restart, and it won't move. The gear linkage has broken off and phased through the ground. After a further 10 minutes of tugging the car to my garage with the van, then pushing it in, I closed the game. Went back in later, and the gear linkage had reappeared where it broke off. Success! So I go and reattach it, making sure to attach the small bolt I missed the first time. And it goes! I made the terrifying voyage to Fleetari. With my wheel alignment garbage, and carburetor not tuned, it was a constant struggle to keep on the road with loud bangs every few seconds. Then in the distance I can see that I finally can get the car it took me so long to make tuned and ready. Fleetari has locked up for the day. So I stole his muscle car and went home.
Havnt touched it in a bit the gear changes were brutal as in good look getting it into first ever.I should start a fresh game.

The long, straight tracks are pretty nice for taking shortcuts. I imagine they won't be so nice once we have trains shooting down them.

The fucking railway[sp]ends in a tunnel, I died embedded in a wall. What the fuck does the wall at the end say?[/sp] EDIT: [T]http://images.akamai.steamusercontent.com/ugc/83716862577294368/87DDD926E537EF7C17DAA9CF41894AFD42DD1332/[/T]
I set up my Logitech MOMO Racing wheel for the game since I finally figured out what force feedback is after installing the wheel's drivers (:v:) is the force feedback supposed to be quite choppy? like, when I turn the wheel, it feels like it's struggling to pull through something really chunky, when I'm just at a standstill
