I enjoyed the lan :> Still thought the competitions have issues but that is something that cannot be helped delays and such, everyone knows it is going to happen. Best thing is for everyone to stop complaining about it and try and make sure their shit is together so it runs as smoothly as possible. Big issue for me is that i missed ALOT of announcements. I missed the GRiD comp and a few others, not to mention poker. With competitions that you are down on the intranet for the respawn notifier didn't work for me in that sense. I only received two notes on that which were general ones sent out to everyone. As for I.esus, you setting up your racing wheel is your perogative but don't get cut over it. Honestly that's just selfish of you, you can play them with your wheel. You pay for your spot and to be honest i would rather the rows as they are now then more space and less players. Next time try to reserve a spot in the annex which has more space  I also don't understand your hatred of GRiD lol, I assume it's because you're bad at it? As you should be aware GRiD and DiRT2 are both made by the same studio (codemasters) and have the same engine, physics and interface. Only difference is the STYLE of racing. DiRT is made to be a rally game (just in case you missed that) and that is almost the only form of racing GRiD does not feature for obvious reasons since rally games are fairly popular standalone. Credit to the eats of tank, food and drink were well priced as usual. I missed the bacon, pancakes and baconcakes at the morning bbq  As for the whole seating arrangment issue, i feel this needs to be sorted out better for next respawn i understand that this was a trial. I feel that the prepay system is good for respawn to ensure they get the money they need to run the event. Lets face it, they need money to run a great event which it normally is. Respawn has always worked on a first come first served system for registration. While this is not a perfect system IMO it is the best. So keep the prepay system but PLEASE only make the prepay option to the top 400 or whatever the player cap is. It is unfair on those who get bumped down because someone in the waiting list prepays. IF you want to come to respawn you should pay attention as to when the registration opens. If you are unable to register at that time for some reason, either use your phone which most people can nowadays or get a friend to do it for you. This is probably the topic which annoyed me the most because you werent guaranteed a seats unless you were in the top 200 when registration was opened. Besides that great event guys, and i look forward to attending again  P.S have fun at reloaded guys

DiRT is made to be a rally game (just in case you missed that) and that is almost the only form of racing GRiD does not feature for obvious reasons since rally games are fairly popular standalone. I am aware GRID and DiRT 2 are made by the same guys, and that they use the same engine... but they do not use the same physics. Actually, some big name rally guys helped out on DiRT 2 to help tweak the car physics to improve the feel over the really bad car physics that DiRT 1 had. It's quite different, though I feel the cars still don't slide enough, but it's fun for an arcadey game. Oh, and I am fine at GRID when using a controller or keyboard... but the car physics still suck, and I do not generally like arcade racing games. DiRT2 is about the only exception. As for setting up the wheel, what's selfish about keeping the player count at 400 and spacing out the aisles a bit more, to give more walking room for everybody, as well as a little extra general room for people in a position such as my own, who may want to set up a wheel, but currently can't due to space issues? Either way, it was merely a suggestion... but if it is not taken into consideration I will book seats on the side with the huge walkway next time so I have space to race.
