I was well over a second behind you and I got my e-mail last night, you may want to check your junk mail etc if you haven't already.

I was well over a second behind you and I got my e-mail last night, you may want to check your junk mail etc if you haven't already. Yeah done that, twice, lol. I sent an email to support but there contact web-site is such bollocks I just posted in a place that seemed kinda right, not got an email to confrim that's even been accepted. I got the email to say I signed up to the autolog obviously i'm in the top 10.
S.C.G Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Summit Assault Time: 1:30.56 race shutdown New Personal Best I'm loving this challenge lol.
teknomonky Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Hey guys, How do you know you were top 10? im trying to find out a leaderboards site or something to know what I need to do. Im not expecting great results as I am currently 3 seconds behind your summit assault time but would be nice to know!!!

Im not expecting great results as I am currently 3 seconds behind your summit assault time but would be nice to know!!! You needed to register about 2 weeks over at ign.com for the compo. It is now the second round, the leader bored was poster for the first round on Friday.
S.C.G Posted January 30, 2011 Posted January 30, 2011 Damn... Seacrest Tour is challenging, it's the last racer event and I'm trying to get gold on it, I've done a few complete runs of it but never placed first and quite often when I'm in 1st my cars already at critical damage so I end up getting wrecked even in the Gumpert Apollo which is built like a tank lol. Fun times... :/

Fun times... :/ Agreed it's tough going - got a silver on it must try for gold. I'm still on track for the platinum trophy got about 8 event events to get gold on! I'm really disappointed about how few PS3 owners on here have this - I thought the competitive nature of autolog would be fantastic on here but we need more of you playing. If you liked burnout then you'll love this (unless your Daft). I implore more PS3 players to get this it really is that damn good. It's insanely fast, graphics are top notch and the racing is spot on. One of the Criterion dudes on Neogaf has also said expect as much support and add ons to this as burnout - so come on people buy this game you won't be disappointed it has Cookyman's seal of approval. It also has Daft's seal of of meh but ignore him he's wrong!
MATtheHAT Posted January 31, 2011 Posted January 31, 2011 I need to get into it, I've only played it for half an hour. I know that is not enough time to make a proper judgement, but it's not as good as that place where the grass is green and the girls are pretty.

NFS is Burnout 2s pursuit mode expanded in to a full game, and it rocks hard.
Cube Posted February 1, 2011 Author Posted February 1, 2011 You mean worst Burnout ever? I don't think he's talking about Revenge, Domination or Legends... This is a great game, but it has nowhere near the longevity of Paradise. I don't think I'll hit 100 hours on this, let alone over 1000 like Paradise.

No, racing in an open world was a bad idea as far as I'm concerned. Paradise may have had longevity in as much as you can just drive around and do what you like and all that, but the actual race events were shit, you didn't know what way you were meant to go, and the indicators telling you the way were far too subtle. Would have been so much better with a Crazy Taxi style big green arrow pointing you in the right direction.
MATtheHAT Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 Bognor Regis? You got it on the PS3 Matty? Come on Cooky, give me some credability. Of course I have it on PS3. Just give me some time to get Mass Effect and Dead Space 2 out of my system, then I shall be owning every one of your times on Autolog. You mean worst Burnout ever?NFS is Burnout 2s pursuit mode expanded in to a full game, and it rocks hard. No doubt it rocks hard, just not as hard as Paradise City.
Cookyman Posted February 1, 2011 Posted February 1, 2011 I shall be owning every one of your times on Autolog. I don't think so! Nah - seriously thats cool. Autolog is fantastic and I expected more people to get this so we could all talk shit about each other!
Cookyman Posted February 3, 2011 Posted February 3, 2011 At last, after lots of blood, sweat and gears - I've got the platinum! Chuffed to bits.
S.C.G Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 Congrats on your Platinum Cooky! as a side-note has anyone actually managed to get Gold on all of the Super Sports events? If so then would they mind telling me how the fuck to complete Pushing The Envelope as it's easilly the most frustrating challenge I've come across within the game so far.

I'll keep you posted on that one!
S.C.G Posted February 6, 2011 Posted February 6, 2011 (edited) I don't... fucking... believe it... Pushing The Envelope Gold Time - 3:38.00 My Time - 3:38.05 fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu! Edit - My New Time 3:37.81 Helllllls yeah! Edited February 6, 2011 by S.C.G
S.C.G Posted February 7, 2011 Posted February 7, 2011 I'll keep you posted on that one! Seems like I beat you to it as I've finally got gold on everything including the Super Sports pack and now have every achievement. :awesome: I've enjoyed the game and I can see myself playing it some more every now and then, especially when more dlc hits but for now I'm going to do what I should have done a long time ago and take an extended vacation to Paradise City... I hear that the grass there is green and that the girls are apparently pretty. : peace:
Oxigen_Waste Posted February 8, 2011 Posted February 8, 2011 I lose track of time on free ride. Lol. Soundtrack off, my stereo on... yellow camaro... kick ass! Ever since I got the Camaro I haven't completed a single event, lol. That was 3 weeks ago. All I do is drive around.
Dan_Dare Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Been getting in to this again lately- though I merely put it down rather than giving up or anything. What a game
James Posted February 9, 2011 Posted February 9, 2011 Made it to the final round of the ign challenge(got an email this time), In france next week so am gonna have to try and pound it in the next two days, for shame.

Nice, I didn't get an e-mail yet, was kinda half-expecting to get one though... what was your best time for the second round btw? also what's the final challenge? if I don't get an e-mail within the next day or two I may have a go at it anyway just to see how I do.
James Posted February 10, 2011 Posted February 10, 2011 head over to Memorial Valley and complete Double Jeopardy in the quickest time possible.
S.C.G Posted February 15, 2011 Posted February 15, 2011 Need For Speed : Hot Pursuit V1.2 update is now available on Xbox Live... Although I may hold back on downloading it due to what happened with the V1.1 update - data reset glitch for some before it was sorted out - plus it doesn't even say what's been added just 'this adds the latest game-changing updates' like the previous one did. I think I'll do a bit of reasearch before downloading but it's worth noting that it's there.
