Keisuke Klan Krisis

That's right! The KKK has come to town :0!

Not really..but what this post is about is...well...muilti-clanning.\

Honestly, how many goddamn clans to you have to be apart of? Isn't the whole point of being in a clan to beat others, make a name for yourselves and support your clan mates? Apparently not, or at least the way things used to work have completely disappeared. How can you honestly be in 14 different drift clans at the same time? You can barely fit 3 tags at maximum in your game name, so imagine writting that down as a whole...jesus shitburger!

The suspect today is the modder Keisuke, who plays a perfect example of ridiculous multi-clanning:

GTA Crews I'm in :
[RS] Red Suns
[SSD] Street Style Drifters
[HRT] Hachi Roku Team
[GDT]Genki Drift Team
[BLITZ] BlItz Team
[MET] Monster Energy Team
[TFD] The Fastest Drifters
[ASS] Akina Speed Stars
[RD] Rotary Drifters
[TSD] Top Secret Drifters
[TSET] Top Secret Engineering Team
[ZDT] Zero Drift Team
[SSR] Seven Star Reaf
[PI] Project Inertia

.....Now for his full name

[RS][SSD][HRT][GDT][BLITZ][MET][TFD]Keisuke[ASS][RD][TSD][TSET][ZDT][SSR][PI]

He's a cool guy and what not, but don't you think the clanning is a bit overkill? It's kind of like having a 14 winged spoiler on your car...even Disney couldn't add that many!

One last thing brought up by Vertex,

[RS] = Redsuns
[ASS] = Akina Speed Stars

Wait a second..he's in both...is that even possible? Takumi is going to get his AE out and wup Keisuke's butt.

Mod Failure

I was looking on GTAInside when I came across this



Tom2 claims it as the "most best s13" for GTA. What it is = The entire car is a convert, with a mass amount of Polywaste that will lag your GTA, and over-stuff your IMG with a single DFF of 12k. What makes the car even worse is the scale. I opened zmodeler, imported it, and then imported a bunch of GTA cars.

As big as the buffalo? Hell no!
As big as the primo? Not even close!
As big as the bobcat? Keep going..
As big as the previon? ...
AS big as the manana? Close.

Yes, this car is smaller than the Manana, which is already the smallest >car< in GTA. I'm suprised CJ can even fit into this little kart.

And there's one more problem! It's as skinny as a fish! It almost looks like an Acura Integra instead of an S13..

TDU 2 Beta

It's ready to be launched, and Atari is sending out the application forms! Follow the link to enter.

http://www.testdriveunlimited2.com/beta

Not a very hard sign-up, meaning that they will most likely not even look at your application and just draw straws. Even still, I'd answer honestly. Even your age..of course.

Proof

That GTA is going backwards in time!



This video looks as tho it would be from 2006, but it's from 2010! GTA really is going back in time isn't it. The only thing left to happen is have the noobies leave, and the fun times begin!

GTA:SA Popularity Boost?

I don't know why, but for whatever reason it is, GTA SA (or SA-MP) has been gaining a lot of popularity lately. More servers and being created, and somehow they are actually filling up. New modding sites are coming up, and mods are pouring out. Map mods for some reason have gone on a major increase as well. Whatever, this means SA probably has another 2 years of life left in it! I'll be playing SA-MP, drifting around Muholland when the world ends in 2012. Woooeeoeoewoeow

SA-MP Forums Comment:

Holy fuck.

You people really haven't made it anywhere in terms of drifting. The fact of the matter is (The Law of Drift):

[b][size=10pt]If you cannot drift with Nitrous, you cannot drift without it. If you cannot drift without Nitrous, you cannot drift with it.[/size][/b]
[b][size=10pt]If you cannot drift with a handling, you cannot drift without one. If you cannot drift without a handling, you cannot drift with one.[/size][/b]

Honestly, how thick-headed do you have to be. If you would actually take the time to go in-game and try each one out for yourself (Stock, Nitrous, Handling) or watch several others do each, you will notice one thing: You will still drive the same driving line, with equal quality drifts.

Drifting itself is completely controlled by the driver. The driver is the only thing that really matters when drifting happens. If you happen to adjust your suspension or drift with nitrous, it is only a matter of the >DRIVER< adjusting to the new feel, and after the driver does so, he will be able to do drifts of equal quality as he was doing before.

[b]YES.[/b] People use handlings and nitrous to make their drifts longer and with more angle, but all in all if you had someone rate the driving, it would all be the same.

A description of the "modern" GTA Drift scene:
-A group of people who continually strive to be the best, but constantly get side-tracked and start spending all of their time making repetitive video's, downloading the latest car and map mods, learning how to steal parts from other cars and make ricers for their movies, joining a ridiculous amount of clans without even knowing anything about it (What the letters stand for), and then bitching 24/7 on Forums, blogs, websites and even on the in-game chatbox about how Stock beats Nitrous and how Nitrous beats Handlings and the opposite ways around.

I've had the "great fortune" of watching the drift community grow since GTA Rumble, GTA:T, MTA:Race, SA:MP 0.1b,0.2.1,0.2.2,0.3 and every day / week is just gets more pathetic. It was actually something to look forward to being apart of back in 05-07, but when 2008 came, people invented these fucked up mind-sets like those already discussed.

The point: Shut the fuck up, grab a fucking elegy, Lamborghini, Ferrari, buccaneer, whatever the fuck you want, and go slide it around a corner, make some friends, and make videos that are actually worth watching.

Mod Leak?

I've been looking at some S13's people have been making recently, and I'm starting to notice some odd looking stuff. I won't say any names at this point, but some of these s13's coming out have deadly similar parts to my s13. By that I mean that the polygon's match up perfectly, and the detailing looks exactly the same. Looking closer, I notice that if indeed one of my s13's was leaked out, it would've been one of my older ones, possibly before it was an Onevia. Pieces like the Rear Bumper, Sideskirts, Rollcage, engine parts and even the steering wheel are starting to appear on some other peoples cars, or some mysterious very accuritaly duplicated look-alikes. There is only a handful of people that have I have personally given any of my cars to, and each one was told specifically NOT to share it. If it was you, do tell on MSN or the shoutbox and get your slap to the face. I won't be suprised if the whole car is used in someones next mod.

TDU 2 Location

Is the island of Ibiza. Google it!

Test Drive Unlimited 2

Yes! Yes! Yes! It has been official for a while now that Atari would be creating a Test Drive Unlimited 2, a sequel to one of my favorite car games out there.

Only recently have 2 trailers been released of the game, and I must say it looks absolutely beautiful.



In trailer one, we see a variety of locations.
Mind you, TDU 1 was based completely on 1 Island. This one appears to be on more than one, or possibly just one masssssiivveeee one. The reason I say this, is because in the video, you see:
-An area that looks like Italy
-An area that looks like Costa Rica
-An area that looks like the Arizona desert
-An area that looks like Miami

If they managed to put all of that in 1 Island: Badass.

The graphics look better, but my main 2 concerns are:
-Road smoothness. In TDU 1 some of the roads were smooth such as Highways, but the rest were really rough and bumpy
-The cars. I hope they have a tiny bit more variety in this one, seeming as TDU 1 was completely limited to sports and super cars, with an exception of the Nissan 350z, and hopefully there is some type of tuning for suspension, the engine, and exterior. Altho I wouldn't really care if ricing was left out >:)

Trailer 2:


Same shit, but more cinematic

It appears you can have parties...maybe some Skinny dipping if your lucky eh?

"Okaru" map beta

For anyone who has been looking for a new touge, I guess here is one.

Sarah posted a little link to a video with an un-developed touge, and that touge is now finished. I found this beta on the the submotoring blog and decided to post the DL link here.

http://cid-2f57312ed8cc1ce4.skydrive.live.com/self.aspx/MAP/okaru%5E_beta.rar

However, there's a problem. North American users will have to get the map from someone else, as the connection from here to Japan isn't exactly top notch, and the download becomes corrupted. Europeans may have better luck, but I do not know for certain.

The map is not very long, and you are constantly surrounded by grassy hill-ish walls, but they spent a lot of time just adding little signs the WHOLE way down.

Rating:
Better than Akagi - Yes
Better than SAkina - No
I would have to say SAkina is still better, for it's quality, skill level and the fact that it's actually a whole 3d island
This map is a bit better than FantasyHill, and a LOT more user-friendly then SAkina. Expect drift morons to go nuts over this map...as they do every map.

Drift Andreas sets 100 new BigEar world Records?

This one will make some of you laugh your heads off.

I joined DA just to drift for a while, when I heard Serravitor talking about the new NDT clan and how hard the test to get in is. So I asked what it was, and yes, it's a very hard test.

In the test, you are required to:

QUOTE:

Complete Big Ear Course In 1:55 or better!

Complete Atleast 10 Succesful Chain Drifts In San Fierro City!

Drift Around An [NDT] Member For 30 Seconds!

Complete The Whole Of SAkina In 3:00 Or Less!

Complete The Whole Of Akagi In 1:26 Or Less!

End Quote

Considering that the average BigEar time for a professional is 1:56, I doubt this clan will get many members.

Continued from that, Serravitor later said that he has done BigEar in 1:50 or lower.

Lets recap for a second. The only people to come even near that were Sarah and Kassik who made 1:52's. Now this guy claims to make 1:50's? I said bullshit, so I jumped in his car and he did a run. It was very evident right from the beginning that this wasn't a stock elegy. On the straightaways it went noticeably faster and it slowed down, and did big drifts on the corners. Nothing of the sort can happen on the elegy without using Nitrous.

The funny part is, people actually believe him. And whats even WORSE, is that a whole bunch of other people from Drift Andreas are claiming to be making 1:52's on average as well.

Seriously? Has everyone been smoking Time Attack drugs?

Even the best drivers on SA cannot do 1:51, let alone 1:50 with a stock elegy and NO nitrous.

Next time you see Serravitor or anyone else claim they made lower than 1:52, don't believe any of it.

...Iyiyi, this bullshit stinks.
