Come up and bang if u have to..

I wonder if this has been mentioned before.

Now we all know that the disadvantages of Auto gear is that if you tried to manually shift the gear it'll drop back to the current one.

But as I was playing just now I noticed something. It only returns to the original gear IF your RPM doesn't satisfy the current gear, therefore if you time your shift up time properly you can change gear manually instead of waiting for the auto gear to do it for you.

didnt notice there is a new pgr3 thread

anyone played online carear mode? it is quite challenging as all the opponents are from worldwide. i've been addicted to it.

I just started playing the online career mode tonight and my ranking is around 500+

u need to see ur rank on what league...its not actually the rank worldwide as what i thought when i first played..

but online career mode u get to meet some really nasty players..even more ganas then .. u know who ..

yahoo, I've unlocked the Gothem hero archivement after a race in online career!!

but i got 3rd in that race wondering how the system measure it......

Yeah, i tried it last night..some people kick u when u don't talk to them

Also it seems like they all like the Nurbuh..(spl) track. Most of them will love to spin u and 99.9% of the time they'll use the Ferrari. Its kinda fun though, I got a badge for racing "clean".

Oh, strange thing is, I often get connected to people from France.

tomorow Jan 30 i will go to KL and i wanna buy some 360 games anyone can help me at there?? and how much the PGR3 price??

arj would u help me??

not sure if there'll be any game shops open by tomorrow at KL..

damn... me also wanna get some games today but doubt any shops will be opened today PGR3..

I don't think they'll be open tomorrow. They cuti at least 3-4 days

Most shops closed at least till Friday.

tomorow i go there jalan-jalan cari makan dulu then FEB 2 i go lowyat buy some games they sure open...

So , all i need to do to unlock Gotham Hero achievement is to play online career? This will be the very first thing i will do once i get back from this stupid work trip.

so tonight got pgr3 session or not? hehehe i cabut lari from my parents home...

You get Gotham Hero if you get featured on GothamTV.

cant get this game anywhere also... everyone said havent released yet when i went around yesterday

are you referring to pgr3?

are u sure the PGR3 not release yet?? or out of stock cause i going to KL tomorow.

most of us here are playing pgr3 ntsc/j every night lah together on Live so that means sure already released

shops that said pgr3 still not released yet... are shops that no use so next time dont go there

pgr3 should be mostly out of stock and limited stock in some places because when it arrived here in kl that day most of use grab everything already. the supplier brought in small volume. maybe better you just pm djinn and ask him about the stocks right now.

PM already still no reply.. how bout u help me contact DjiNn thx

ok another perfect solution... you find djinn's latest posting and look for his hp at the bottom of his posting

lets see... i went to sungai wang and lowyat... all shops like dun have it le.. after new year cari again

hmmm should be out of stock lah i think... that day when pgr3 arrived everyone here were panicking because not enough for everyone.

PGR2 also like this .

Hmm couldn't find the MR1 for the Exotic Badge. Does that have to be unlocked via Kudos? Anyway practicing for manual not great but getting there prolly do it when we do online battles again

I've read about this glitch from another forum where if you were to complete the World Tyreburn Tournament on Hard (Gold) difficulty, you'll receive 5.85 million credits. I tried it a few moments ago and it worked!

Be warned though if you finish it again with Platinum you'll LOOSE over 5 million credits!

Bye, wanna go fill up my garages with my newly aquired wealth

I don't think there's an MR1; only MK1 and ZR1 and you don't need to unlock either one of them.

Hmm could I get check on the exotic cars that I need to buy then please

According to the guide on gamefaqs.com, you need McLaren F1 LM; Shelby GT 500; Ford GT-40 MK 1; Corvette ZR1; TVR Cerbera Speed Twelve; RUF CTR \"Yellow Bird\"; Callaway Sledgehammer Twin Turbo

I'm stuck at cone challenge, this mode restrict me to unlock the platinum. What car u guys using for this mode?

I use the Ultima GT. Apparently the best car to use for the cone challenge according to those that have it is the RUF that you unlock when you reach rank number 1.

my favorite car... ultima gtr.
very good in drifting

played the demo after downloading it... 1.25gb... all i gotta say is that the graphics rox.. was expecting more for the size, but only got to try 1 race and 4 cars..

hey ppl after 4 days without lowyat im back heehh...PGR3 session tonite?

Ahh thanks Arj

helo guys,anyone up for pgr3 tonight?

im up,but waiting for sis to get off the tv...hehehhe,i shall be the ganas boy i was that night...hhhe

lol
Ganas boy

having nuff fun with u guys and hopefuly tomorrow we can have another session again.

Let Ganas Boy duelling with Welwitchia... we will see who is really ganaz...hahaha

Welwitchia love my rear car... always knock me out early...hahaha

7 more cone challenge to go to unlock the platinum.....very very hard

Fulamak! I can only dream of going that far

Here's some tips on how to get the Style Racer Badge if you don't already know how to achieve it

http://forums.xbox.com/1181644/ShowPost.aspx

got pgr3 tonite??

I'll be on for PGR3 later.... now busy filling up my garage.

Im in! Makan first around 8pm and then crank the engine!

bro string is back sure got pgr3 session lah

Even though i suck at the game. Sekali skala tu ada ler dapat number 2, tapi kena keep on smacktalkin' and jivin' to keep those hungry for my position at bay. Number 1? Kadang kadang tu ada cium bau ler, bau ekzos, tapi tak pernah dapat!

How do you get Gotham Heroes nyer achievement again? I tried Online Career but never could be featured in Gotham TV Live. Is it random?

im in as well, about 10 pm,first nak warm up....string ko org aper?chinese malay indian?japanese?

Orang bunian! Macam biskut Chipsmore, skejap ada skejap takder!

I'm Malaysian, PSP_boy, and a damn well proud to be one.

The most common reply to that question on other forum is to just keep on playing online and you'll get lucky one day

good,good,

ugh orang bunian fikir about that fikir my ustads story orang bunian...gives me the heebie-b'jeeebies...

LOL! Just like how you try intai peluang masuk TV , kalau lucky dapat masuk Malaysian Idol lah, cenggitu eh?

PSP_boy, i AM scary to certain few people around here. :pNOt related to any Gunung Ledang descendants whatsoever though....

bro string is back, lama tak nampak, minyak hitam sudah tukar ka, nanti kete tarak power, jari-jari jgn kasi glitch, sudah ramai pro.... pro langgar lari pun ade...hehehe

About Gotham Hero, i'm not sure how to get it. But i think if u race online career with Pro/Expert and been broadcast, maybe can unlock it.
BUT sometime Pro/Expert cabut when they see we are still novice...hmm

Another tips to go fast, check the leaderboard & beat the no.1 (friendlist). Mesti laju lepas nie.

Yeah

Another tip to increase your chance of being on TV is to play when there's not many people online like during the wee hours of the morning, US time.

okie then,what time u guys going LIVE?hopefully im not as bad as yesterday...keep on getting bullied haish...u guys nih,asyik talk bout me huh...wait till i get a mic....where can i get the mic ah???braper ringgit??ingat i saw one kat ansys...but anywhere else??

IIANM, any headset mics which can plug into the port at the end of the controller can be used. Some brands like Plantronics and such, which coincidently also make aircraft headsets. Wonder if i can songlap sebijik from the Engineering guys at work.......

Tonight, after makan im in. Like bro MAdnoren says, kena tukar minyak itam, tune enjin skets, pastu put the second coating on the cars,*bior silau mata sumer, senang aku dapat number satu, muahahahaha! *, then baru race.

PGR3 really brought the masses together, but guys, what about other games in your possession? To keep PGR3 fresh, we need to alternate lah, one day PGR3, the next day DOA4 ke, then PDZ ke, then COD2 ke, then RR6 ke. I really dont mind PGR3 every night, im just afradi we might hit the "burnt out" phase too soon.

lol...they should give us some rebate...

if team race, make sure u r on my side....

BUT if u knock team also, don't know what to say lah...

hehehe... if you call them ah... they will ask you do the following,

1. shutdown your pc and your modem then restart again.
2. then ask you to plug out your network cable and replug again.
3. do direct connection from the port to your modem.
4. then they ask your dsl link stable or blinking...

imagine lah everything we call that's the SOP (standing operatin procedure) so if the session hang also which is their fault, they need to reset the system and we are still required to do all the above... damn stupid lah tmnut...

so on my side everything i call... sure S.O.B

How about we start a league? Two types one team base and another individuals, divided into groups. Top 2 in each group meet in crossover semi finals best of say 10 races. Then a final and playoff for 3rd and 4th. Prizes for 1st to 4th.

For teams top drivers are team leader then the rest are pooled and we draw to find which group they go into.

Willing to sponsor 1 prize say price of 1 game for individual. Team maybe we have medals and trophy and do it annually? Anyway open to ideas

Sounds good. League of Extraordinary Gentlemen LXG anyone?

i agree... even though i wont be winning

for the modem blinking problem... just get new one cause my streamyx come with modem also have same problem every 7pm start blinking twikle twikle little star~~ then 1 day the thunder blast my modem boom!! not blinking anymore the 3 light just hang in there without blinking me and my bro go get new one then nothing happen when we get the new modem is was smooth~~~ cheap but smooth~~

Well that's where the team competition could work in your favor, teamwork, everychance to win something! We prolly need to work on a set of tracks so no one has an advantage. If everyone knows which track would give time to practice so no advantage or surprise.

Seems like a dream but if we did this and maybe get publicity for it, a possible rethink on Xbox launched officially here. Of course that would be a dream huh, but something good for the console gaming arena

A track that nobody has an advantage of? Custom Routes! Like mine?
OR i could create one just for the league.

As for MS rethinking on not launching here, i doubt that is gonna happen. Even with the relatively-cheaper version of MS Windows XP Starter Edition with quad languages support here getting next to zero response, i doubt they would think Malaysia as a viable market segment. The gaming populace here too proudly proclaim their love affair with the Dark Side , so.....*shrugs*

PGR3 should allow gamers to add all possible routes from all 5 cities to make one single custom route, that would be awesome. Imagine one minute , you're driving night time in London, then turning 720 degrees in that parking ramp in Tokyo, then move to long straights in New York, next moving in hotel lobbies in Vegas, and to top it off, driving in part of The Behemoth in Nurburgring. That would be KILLER~!!

*starts polishing the Mercedes*

Yeah, the Mercedes is my next favourite car after my first investment, the Ultima GTR. I cant drift to save my life, let alone take a corner nicely in PGR without spinning out of control, so the Mercedes is a perfect fit for me.

The Mercedes is like the Nobles somewhat. Huge turning radius. Once you spin, that's it, takes forever to turn around. Sometimes have to do 3 point turn also.

each team creates 5 custom tracks and use all 10 tracks from both team.. that sounds more fair i think..

Let's team up 1st, then we think how to run the league.

My suggestion:

TEAM A
1. Jaylike7
2. Judge
3. Shumaky
4. Ganaz Boy

TEAM B
1. Calvin
2. Jijobest
3. Zaakath
4. Tailgunner

TEAM C
1. PrinceOfPersia
2. Welwitchia
3. MK84
4.

TEAM D
1. Madnoren
2. Stringfellow
3. Arj
4. Bansai

If not enough, tambah lagi.

Remember, to run the league, everyone of the team member have to be online. ME especially would run into complications with my roster, where i have to be away for long trips without my 360. Camner?

OR is the race date dynamic, meaning can change to suit everyone's attendance?

Errrr, Team B too overpowderful Calvin, Jijo and MK84? Jijo is DA MASTA in NFS:MW(altho i have yet to race him,...anyone raced him?), and last night, MK84 shows his fangs with his Mercedes.

Reshuffle!

The easiest and definite way , the way i see it, to see who should go where is through time attack run on a selected course. That way, we know who ranks better, and we could reshuffle the teams balanced-wise.

P/s: Can we name the teams, instead of alphabets? Team Book Two perhaps?

Maybe we need a website for PGR3 Malaysia...

me in team D put me in team D

i mean team C team C

This post has been edited by tailgunner: Feb 2 2006, 02:26 PM

Mana satu nie...C or D

Well its 8 max for online so for teams we prolly have 4 in a team so looking at players we have max teams we could have based on our number of players would be 4 teams (16 players in total).

So going forward we would have 2 types of competition

Individual

1. 2 groups (eight in each group) the 2 groups will battle over 10 races (set of 5 played once each week)

2. Top 4 in each group advance to final

3. Losers pool will have a competition and winner win a prize. Gives something to look forward for the not so pros

To determine the 2 groups maybe we have seedings. How do we do the seedings?

1. 5 races put in 2 groups ( random draw) top 4 join winners pool and losing 4 join loser pool.

2. Have another round of 5 racers and the winners pool will have seedings 1-8 and losers pool have seeding 9-16.

3, Once the seeding done the number 1 seed and number 2 seeds will be kept in different groups so hopefully they make the final.

4.Races will be held over weekend or an agreebable date (ppl like String fly)

Custom races sounds good Basai but maybe one from each team for the team races. Could be the ace in the hole to beat the other team. Will come up with something on teams later.

Anyway that is my idea on individual feel free to comment and input. I will sponsor some prizes not all (have a few ideas). First of all need to know who would be interested If there is enough peeps will need some help from others to form a committee to make this event work
