Its never good watching someone crash.

How about that Cal Crutchlow, he's amazing!

I use to think his gibberish was cute, now it makes me want to puke!  Crutchlow is a a blow hard.  Can't wait to read why he wasn't on pole today, obviously no fault of his own.

Hawk,

I agree about advancement. Look at Iracing, don't they have it all figured out with commentary and spectator live streaming etc?

If you truly want a broad audience then there has to be a middle ground. Where a simulation falls short, no matter how realistic it becomes you still have to allow weekend warriors to enjoy spinning around without penalty, that is reality. Those are the ones allowing us to have a fighting chance in a niche genre.

Its sort of like- You need Metallica to find Napalm Death  ;D

We been saying this sort of thing will happen for years now Pib...... Do you still think online racing and championship facilities/utilities isn't a main priority for GPB?

If GPBikes was rock solid stable and V1.0 you could've stood a good chance being noticed for such an interest from these guys wanting to create online championships; still could in the future if you can speed up development of GPB.  :)

In the meantime that piece of crap(MotoGP from Milestone) is going to get all the glory and in a lot of respects ruin the foundation for realistic online motorcycle racing championships. Notice I said, "Realistic"? This is where your niche is and what you should concentrate on for the online championship capabilities and not the Gameboys that will use Milestones MotoGP. Keep it real!  ;D 8)

Hawk.

At the moment there isn't enough money around racing eSports to justify the creation of all the tracks and bikes for a full season.
So the only option for Dorna is to use a game that already has the license and all the needed content. Plus, console versions.

The real question is: how many will be interested in following that championship? Does it have a future?
eSports sustain themselves with viewers, that attract sponsors and media coverage.

What do you think?

I'll tell you what I think. Its almost down right dead and boring how many times I have mentioned to developers @   "later Climax"/Monumental/Milestone/Capcom. I practically wrote books on the success of the first 2 Climax MotoGP offerings netcode, by Shawn Hargreaves.  On GP1 (Climax) every night was like a Friday night out with your friends. The scoreboards were the carrot and the competition was insane!   

You can make the greatest simulation/game but the most important part is creating a robust netcode the way Shawn Hargreaves did. All the features where there and no one beyond Shawn capitalized on his work...

A server that runs all platforms be it pc/xbox/ps etc with resettable scoreboards. Its the drama of a collective interest and the micro social bubbles. Having your name at the top of a scoreboard is like being a mini Rossi. It allows those who take virtual racing serious to a level of competitiveness not found by simply racing on line and crashing into each other.

On NetworkChallenge.org we kept the Climax series alive for years on PC until Gamespy ended.

Even if this NEW thing they wanna do is brought to the table they will ruin it. They just don't understand that simple is best and looking back to the past is the key!   :(

i'm pretty sure (at least, i hope so) that the eyeroll wasn't meant as such, more likely just a bad choice of emoticon....
i can't see anyone 'eyerolling' someone who is lucky to be alive.... :D ......

Feeeewwwwwww, I sure hope? Man thats rotten  ::) ;D

I have no hopes... If he would survive he would be seriously disabled... If he survives... So sad...  :'(


In 1989 I was in a bad accident and was gone for 4 mins and spent 10 days unaware of anything. They explained to my family I may not make it through the night  and now I'm here with you guys 100%!!!!!!

We love you Nicky!

Wow, I did not expect that  ::) However, we all wish him the best for the future

Double Wow! I didn't expect a reply with an   ::) eyeroll.

Personally I would like to see Rossi close out his fantastic career with a 10th title  :)

I have a gut feeling he is in the cards, after all he has been placing 2nd in the championship for a few year now. He's just one place away with one thing on his mind!

I will point out this, I'm glad we have some great talent ahead of us for the non Rossi years to come. I was crushed when Simoncelli died!

If you consider consistency then again Rossi. Lorenzo will be teething as well as Vinales and everyone else who changed manufactures.     

Iannone is an animal!

Wow, just don't get it.

Food for thought- In life there will always be a "know it all" its the quiet/humble person who holds value. Its OK to grow and resist, its part of finding your way.

That being said, there are rules to follow!

topic closed. :(

Interesting, I see a trend going on here. It seems as if a thread go's in a bad direction as of lately the name (Urban Chaos) seems to be the in the middle of it all?

Other than the Fox eating popcorn there is nothing good about this thread! Another wasted space on Piboso.com.

So who should we blame and tell me who is the victim? 

Its a good thing I'm not Admin as someone would be typing their frustrations else where for a little while until they learn how to play nice. This is getting really old  ::)

Urban- you have just as much say as the next person here but arguing is getting old and maybe you should cool it man? For everyone else, if you have a problem with Urban, then please ignore posts that allow Urban to gather power over the situation.

With Love-

Hmmmm, this again?

Another wasted thread of tit for tat.  So who is the victim this time? It wasn't very long ago I deleted an entire thread due to vulgar language. Why is there a need to be right? I vote on the need to be educated. When people are not willing to learn they shut down facilities, so don't cry when forums such as this are gone because of wasted space filled with nonsense.

Please try to respect one another and opposing opinions. Rather than resort to foul language and name calling why not show your true intellect with an assertive idea/opinion!     

Booooooorrrrrrring!  :(

Bug Reports / Core.exe @ will
December 22, 2016, 12:02:05 AM
I can make core.exe crashes happen over and over again at Limerock, simply by driving off track to the boarder where the graphics end. This leads me to believe that "core.exe" could be simply a graphic error. In MotoGP 1 (Climax) there was a feature you could turn on called "wire frame" it allowed you to see places where the track wasn't complete such as in certain corners hence being able to glitch through the given corner and be warped on the other side of the track... Not sure if there is a correlation here but felt I should point this out.

Piboso?   

I will see if this is possible elsewhere such as Victoria.

How about this-

Strange I thought your link was to the G920, this picture is the G29. ??? Maybe I worded it badly it is 1am here yawn 😦


Nick, I noticed something I felt I should bring to your attention if you don't already know?

The G29 also is compatible with PC and I've read it works right out of the box where as the 920 for xbox/pc works obviously but not without tinkering for some reason? Just thought I would point that out as I think I'll get the G29. My struggle will be getting it to see FF in Linux.
