  1. got a fuck-load of crashes to start with, then i actually read the instuctions and installed the new version of directx 9, got 1 more crash a min after that, and then everything was great. (lots of maps wouldnt load on the race server, but that may have been an irrelevant bug)

    got the verification bug, along with everyone it seemed...

  2. unfortunately, i believe the problem is exactly that. the fps does affect the speed of the game, play mta race and play on a server with lots of players, at the start of a map, watch how fast everyone starts moving, some are really slow, some a pretty fast. anyone who isnt the fast ones cant actually reach the 25 fps limit imposed. if so many are already unable to reach the limit, it would be unfair to increase it, as it would give those who can even more of a head start. if gta was designed with multiplayer in mind, it wouldnt work like this, but it does, and the mta team arnt going to rewrite the game engine now.

  3. A: if that's him drifting off into space via the garbage shoot that was behind him, then it appears, yes.

    Q: do you like my new avatar*?

    * my avatar was created because I recently reread a Terry Pratchet book that points out that due to the transcendental nature of space-time and the reasoning behind chaos theory, it is impossible for anything to be completely devoid of the chance of containing nuts, nuts could quite easily come into spontaneous existence anywhere! and therefore it is our duty to forewarn those with nut allergies of the afore-mentioned danger, this, I believe is also the reasoning behind food labelling nowadays.

  4. A: dont worry, i just got here, i went shopping on the way, got clothes, milk, a pie jar with 18 key safe with titanium locking mechanisms so that we get some pie sometimes and, of course some oil for my uber-cool robot suit that i got when brophy ate me.

    Q: doesnt the ship produce pies after useing ham? or was that the old one?

  5. no, it is no-where near. however the mta team have been posting pictures of them testing it, which may have been what was confusing you.

    it could be many months before its out, nobody knows, so dont ask.

    mta race is out though.

  6. hmm.... maybe because i got the tv 4-6 years ago? before hd. it was the only digital tv in the shop. i think there may have been hd plasma tvs around, but i wasnt going to pay £20000 for one!

    and its never going to be fully superseded in terestrial, there just isnt enough bandwidth, even with analog gone, only a few channels will be able to have hd.

  7. I doubt it will be 18 years. Some countries will be stopping analogue broadcasts in only a few years, and will probably start broadcasting in HD formats.

    digital isnt hd, i dont plan on a new tv for a long time, it has digital, so it will last until they stop broadcasting non-hd, which should be in many years time.

    but you are right about analog going soon, and hd will start about the same time. most things arnt even filmed in hd yet, so i doubt it will become the only option for at least 10 years.

  8. Except that everyone on the team always say its amazing and make it sound finished, of course, people who waited for race have learned to take that with a pinch of salt, but new people will think its practically finished.
