DTR a Masterpiece?

12 posts by 9 people · 04 Nov 1999 - 05 Nov 1999

Hmmm. this demo is looking mighty good. With full simulation turned on and AI at 50% I cannot keep up with the dirtbags. This sim is really fun, graphics are some of the best I have seen. Maybe not a Masterpiece, but then again we have yet to see the sprints. USAC and Outlaw sprints on dirt. We may see a Masterpiece out of these guys yet. Rick Sweeney

I had high hopes for this Demo and all I can say is that it's everything I hoped it would be. The gameplay is so good you almost forget about the crappy sound <G>. Later, Joe

It's a blast! It downloaded quickly from simracingnews.com and installed and ran flawlessly. This is gonna be the best $20. I've spent in a long time! Those late models are TOUGH! Jim

It's a total blast online. beat's Nascar BIG time in the online fun factor. Even saw someone with a 900 ping and he didn't even warp and that's with 10 people on the track. Great online code. > BTW....I forgot to say that's 100% AI and 100% realistic handling I used on my > 6th placer. > Dan Belcher > Team Racing Unlimited > http://members.xoom.com/simcrash1/simcrash

Things you CAN'T say about DTR: - Alan was only faster than me because of all the warping. - Alan only beat me because it was so laggy. - Alan finished ahead of me because he was using better setups. [NOTE: Alan only has the demo, and you can't tweak the car setup in the demo -- but you CAN in the game, and it helps, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to keep up with Alan! <G> - JB] -- Ringer The poster formerly known as John Bodin ;-)

Had fun racing you and the others tonight. I didn't know you posted here at r.a.s. The online code is definitely excellent. I saw no warping at all in any of the races. David G Fisher

When did I miss you David, or did we race against each other ? I did some quite long racing on the main server last night, which became my server a little later. -- -- Fran?ois Mnard <ymenard> -- May the Downforce be with you...

That was BIG fun last night JB!!! I was there - handle FERKEL. Good clean (mostly) racin at the WWorksDEMO server. Some other groups were a bit rough but ya take what ya can get when ya GOTTA RACE! Hope to see y'all again tonight if there's another chickflic on to keep my wife occupied.... she's already wanting to race online but I told her she has to get some more laps in OFFline first. She ran a "Lightning" at easy settings and was so e***d her leg was shaking by the end of the race. GREAT JOB Ratbag!!! Can't wait for the Sprint version.

I was there from about 11:30 pm to 1:30 am. I didn't see your name on any of the servers though. David G Fisher
