Camel

:damnit: Whenever I buy a season pass it goes on sale a few months after. Whenever I don't buy one but want one, it doesn't go on sale until after I buy it. *flap*

I take back what I said, I hate this idea.

Microsoft represents the weekly Deals With Gold -sales as usual, and apart from few other Forza deals there were a quite good deal for Forza 6's Car Pass.
 
If you are a Gold member and have thought of getting some of the DLC cars or maybe even the car pass, this is quite a good chance! I don't think it is going to be any lower than this.
 
Regular price (in €) rolling around 29,90€ and the deal takes the tip off of it, so it makes about 20€ with the deal. For those who know math, the deal is -35% off from the pass!
 
 
Other Forza related deals this week:
 

Forza Horizon 2 + Forza Motorsport 5 all bundled up: -50% off
Forza Horizon 2: Porche Expansion: -50% off
Forza Horizon 2 VIP Pass: -50% off
Forza Horizon 2: Alpinestars Pack: -50% off
Forza 5 VIP Pass: -50% off
Forza 5 Nurburgring Booster Pack: -70% off

 
 
Quite nasty deals in a good way, pick yours this week! (Starting to sound like a hired promoter :lol:)

I do appear to have forgotten to post them...

Only a couple more, but a couple more none the less!

I like this. I shall attempt it shortly.

I hope you enjoy this video that I recorded from DRIVECLUB.
 

 
 
It's pretty decent for what it is, although I honestly do struggle with twitchy gamepad steering and 30 FPS. Rusty doesn't seem too bothered about adding supporting for Fanatec wheels either (pCARS managed it somehow???)

Enjoy this week! A stock car was requested so a stock car it is. :) Although I may have shot myself in the foot.
 
What's this about?
 
 
 
Think of it as turboduck's own Rivals, but with some proper rivalry in the community. (Camel smells awesome) :evil:
 
The Rules:

You must use the car (or a car that meets the restrictions) and track chosen by the previous winner.
Tuning/setups are not allowed this week.
Dirty laps do not count, stay off the lawn kids.
Laps do not have to be from a standing start (flying laps count).
If you already have a faster lap recorded outside of the competition, this does not count, you must record another and take a picture for proof.
If you win, don't forget to chose a car/track for the next week before Monday!
Make sure to do your times in RIVALS (or free play), they will not be recorded in test drive.

Mine is very slow too and it takes about 5 seconds just to load up the friends panel on the homescreen after it has booted. No where near as fluid as the PS4.
 
But the extra features are pretty good. Really like what they've done with the upload studio for video editing.

I really waited for this updated once it was announced, and maybe even before it when I got my hands on the Windows 10 -app. It is way more useful and user-friendly interface than the previous one. It just feels a bit heavy for the console, I don't know if you guys are experiencing it, but hopping off from the game by tapping the Xbox Button takes about 3 seconds for the pop to actually happen. Same goes for turning off the console or the controller, few seconds for the popup to load, when previously that was about instant.
 
 
Old interface could've been better for Kinect, but who actually uses it?
 
They should at least drop its price from 150€ to something like 80€ and I would get it just to try it out in games like Alien: Isolation and so forth, where the voice capture could bring somewhat different experience.

1:27.925
 
Nailed the first 2 sectors, or at least it felt like I did but I cocked up the final sector and lost a few tenths. Everytime I do a good first half of the lap and do a bad second and vice versa. :panic:
 
My attempt at Xbox DVR. :hmmm: Trimming the clips is difficult. And it would be nice if rivals mode replays didn't show damage from previous laps...
 

For the movie it has got to be Minions! Best film ever. *is actually wearing a minion t-shirt at the moment*
 
As for favourite song. Tough one as I listen to a loooot of music and don't really pay much attention to new released. If I do notice one I shall post again.
 
For the album I was gonna say Arctic Monkeys - AM but then I checked and that was released in 2013. Time really does fly. My search through my Spotify library has brought to my attention some of my favourite bands new albums that I've not got around to listening to yet or even knew about. Thanks Myk!
 
Found one! :panic: The Prodigy - The Day Is My Enemy. Love it but thought it was from 2014.

Or does the Miura have a PI bug?
 
Whenever I've raced hassan he's either been sideways 20 feet in the air or trying to eat tyre walls. :cheeky:

I have a serious thing for Legacy estates, such a beautiful barge. :drool:

Did a wee test video thingy, want to do this for the winning lap of every week if the game allows me (sometimes the replays aren't there). Here's Mell's previously fast lap:
 

Want to know what's happening?
Read the full schedule here: Full Schedule - CES 2016

 
 
Want to know what's happening even fasterer?
Read this brief article on the homepage: Consumer Electronics Show 2016 | turboduck
 
 
 
Rather watch a video?
Well, ok then:
 
 
Want to leave this page without posting a comment? :ban:

The sessions size is indeed 8 but you can only have a crew with a maximum of 4 people. Kind of like the session locking in TDU but it only works with a max of 4 people. You can have 2 crews of 4 in a sessions but the 2 crews can become separated and end up in 2 different sessions at any time.
 
I wasn't aware of a way to lock a session of more then 4 people which seems a bit daft.

Here's my car. It turns out that the car handles terribly when you replace a wheel with a light bulb. :( Live and learn I suppose.
 

 
Nearly took my ear off on those nails on the wall. >.<

She's keeping you in the garage? Poor thing :pathead:

Happy new year everyone!
 
I have a feeling that we're coming up to our mid life crisis fairly soon as ducks can live to 20 years old and we're nearly 9 already! Will you be getting a golden beak?
