Next time we play, may I suggest that we spend more time just shooting the shit rather than getting into the challenges right away? I found that the random pointless wandering was just as much fun as the challenges.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Online Marked Man is actually kinda bogus unless the non marked people are REALLY GOOD at working together. Because you don't get the magical rubberbanding that the marked man guys get in the singleplayer, all it takes is to peel away from everybody once and you're pretty safe the rest of the way.

Not to mention my favorite strategy of guessing when I'm going to be the marked man and leaving the chase to start off way far away from everybody, making them waste half their time just getting to me.

The fact that they give the chasers infinite boost just doesn't quite balance it enough. Every time we've played it it's ended with everyone going "Well, that was... OK?"

omg Shin y u diss

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The thing about team chase though was that it rewarded teamwork. Because in Marked Man in the end everyone is out for themselves (only the person who takes down the marked man gets the points) it doesn't do nearly as good of a job of encouraging you to work together.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I really like the design of the city, after exploring it for a while. Its color palette and overall design sense are significantly different and are really nice, and the retarded jumps they managed to build in are awesome. They definitely weren't kidding when they said they were designing the city around being full of tricks this time.

Also I ended up buying the legendary cars. Holy shit having that hovering DeLorean is amazing. It even leaves little fire trails behind you when you boost!

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
