Just played PGR3 online for the first time

[Mannginger]

Had my ass handed to me of course - but it is addictive isn't it?

In "arcade" mode do the kudos points get added to your total? Also - if you play several games in a row, do the points mean anything in the game or is it just ranking on that game?

Finally - I'd love to play against a few of you folks, is there a PF server or anything like that? (Is that how it works!?!)

Cheers

From experience, most of the muppets online cannot drive.

Myself and a few guys I work with tend to have a bit of a session on Tuesday nights 9-11pm. Usually a bit of cat and mouse, a bit of hard racing and a lot of abuse.

Add "Gridlinked" to your friends and if you're online around that time give me a shout. We may well have room for a couple more....

From years of playing online games I've found this to be the best way. There are plenty of idiots around but you can cancel these out easily. When you get to know the people your playing with it ends up to be a bit of a pub atmosphere, top laugh. Cheaper than going to a pub too.

Way to many morons on pgr3 Live these days (and on all games it seems). Loads of PHers were playing most evenings when the game first came out. We used to race together.
I've only raced 50 or so times in the point scoring races and countless times i've had wins snatched from me by idiots. So i only race PHers and TTR clan members.

no arcade kudos does not add - only online career...

And i found online I either got thrashed - or was surrounded by people who thought it was demolition derby (and couldnt race without cheating) or were utterly useless...

When i met people of similar skill or just clean racers i could just about keep up with, it was enjoyable...

I heard some of those TTR members are just annoying kids that trash talk through the whole race, does this hold water with you ?

Not saying they have members like that, just heard.

You have a real mix of members. You have 14 year old kids who are somehow unreal at games then you have your older members who put in the hours and are good lads. I only race with them. I don't bother with the kids.
I'm sure you've seen or heard of the TTR member Mclaren F1. He is only 15 year old! One of the best racers on pgr3!!!

[:J:]

I have seen Mclaren F1 residing at the top of most of the TT boards. I have also seen him exploiting every wall hit/glitch available

Outside of the glitches though, he is f'in quick !!

True, he does do that which is a shame but these guys will do anything to stay at the top! Have you been playing on there much recently?
