Re: Newbie Group for online sessions wanted?

If you do add him, be prepared to receive some condescending in-game messages telling you to quit playing Uncharted on a friday evening and play Burnout instead.

Re: Newbie Group for online sessions wanted?

Hi all,

I know I am a bit late but I am also looking for some help with the online challenges. Assuming nobody minds I will add the IDs listed above and hopefully meet some of you online in the coming days?

Cheers,

Re: Newbie Group for online sessions wanted?

Can I feel free to add any of you guys to lend as hand.

I previously had this on the 360 and got about 30% in without really scratching the surface of the online content. I traded it in ages ago cuz i was skint but Ive got hold of it again on PS3 so I'm gonna hammer it this time especially the online stuff.

The additional content looks awesome and the bikes feel far from just tagged on, they sound and handle really well.

Re: Newbie Group for online sessions wanted?

Completed this bad boy many moons ago, but still playing it. There is a good community of Burnout players here who are top geezers, SlyFly, Battle, Hellscovern, Hulligan, Teggs and many more. Add me i'm up for it (after I have re-completed the game...again )

Hey,

If any other newbies want to add me feel free. I'd probably class my skill as average at the most!

Re: Newbie Group for online sessions wanted?

I'm revisiting Burnout after playing it on the 360. Can't say I'm any better than average (and that would be pushing it!). Happy to support some online activity, but I am headsetless. Feel free to add me:

TheFuggler

Cheers!

Re: Newbie Group for online sessions wanted?

I add you guys if thats o.k? I am going to be playing burnout for along time as I downloaded the game via psn, so have no chance of selling it (not that I'd want to)

Re: Newbie Group for online sessions wanted?

Agreed Wamps.

What I'm finding now is it's hard to get all the right people in the right room at the right time. Inluding Bruce Willis.

Last night I was fortunate to join Flocketoffel who had an AMAZING set of 6 other people who all had 400+ challenges each. It was a breeze doing challenges with them. And that's not just because they had played the game a lot, it's because they WANTED to do the challenges.

If you guys don't mind I'll be adding Ed_the_Penguin, The Fuggler (who I'm sure I've played with before), and chui12.

I'm now back up to 302 challenges, after having deleted my 472-completed-challenge save game.

Please do - I've played on the 360 before but not the PS3. Need to crack on with the challenges!

Sly Fly, cheers for the invite (and the patience with my performance) on Saturday night. As I said, I'll hopefully be on Thursday, depending on whether my mate rings me and wants a game of GTA!

Re: Newbie Group for online sessions wanted?

Are you guys playing on Tuesday night? I'm really stuck at around 415, with the last 80ish challenges seeming virtually impossible, due to all the complete mupets that seem to be online these days (No offense SlyFly)

I'm on most Tuesday and Thursday evenings from about 6.30 pm, but get bored and leave if there isn't anyone about who wants to do challenges after a while.

Rich, add me (cos I'll probably forget to add you!) and I'll see if the missus is going out - we've only got one TV in the house!.. I can't promise anything, but I'll do my best as I've got a hell of a long way to go!

EDIT: Yeah she's out tonight, and I'm normally on Thursday nights as well, so if you fancy a go tonight I'm up for it.

Re: Newbie Group for online sessions wanted?

Great game lastnight fella's
'Ed the Penguin' is officially a LEGEND in my book , after trying for days to get the last 25 or so 6, 7 and 8 player timed challenges and only ever having complete muppets join my game. I managed to get about 1/2 of them done lastnight in the game 'Ed the Penguin' hosted.
I've only got about 12 or so to go now
I should be online again tonight, about 8:30pm or so, but if not I'll definitely be online on Thursday for challenge night See you there.

Hey, I only hosted.. I wouldn'nt have managed half the challenges if a few of the guys (Including yourself, DJ_Bucho) didn't help me through them!
As said before, I'll be on again tonight for challenges! I may be on Thursday as well, but I think I'll be catching up on some single player stuff as I need some decent cars - I've only got about 8!
