Then I will say this right now.
WHY SHOULD I HAVE TO BUY A STEERING WHEEL JUST TO PLAY A GAME THAT I ALREDAY BOUGHT?
Why should I have to pay arround 200 pounds on an additional peice of equipment just to fully
enjoy a game costing just 30 pounds? And how is using a KEYBOARD in a COMPUTER game competition
CHEATING? Its not as if I have just gone out and bought myself an advantage over everyone who
can't afford a steering wheel. And it's not as if you havent got a keyboard either. Or do you
use your steering wheel and pedals for your word processor as well? If you want to play with the
steering wheel then fine, but please don't *** about other people playing with a keyboard,
espically when sitting in front of your computer is A KEYBOARD! In my opinion it would be stupid
if the steerng wheel is faster, because that would put everyone who could not afford a steering
wheel at a disadvantage. Don't forget that using a steerng wheel is an OPTION.
Maybe you should write to who ever is running that competion for two classes?
note:- I know you said that using steering help was cheating (not using the keyboard was
cheating), but since steering help cannot be turned off with the keyboard, my argument still
stands. (in my opinion steerng help is GP2's best feature)
By the way - has it been PROVEN yet that keyboard is faster than steering wheel?
