I really like this game. It's fun just as an off-roading game. I downloaded the official map pack, and i've been having a blast cruising around in the Tatra 8x8. It's a cool game, but it could still use a lot of work.

it lags so badly on the computer i use now (i have two)

[Relys]

1 Lag's computer. 2 The physics a fricked up for me.

[leon kennedy]

damn this slowed down 56k broad band (bloddy telstra slowing down ou... *mumbles off*)

[Stigern]

Vell, the game has pretty advanced physics, so it demands quite the powerfull computer.

EDIT:

But, it depends wich truck/ you uses. The more complex vehicle, the more lag.

[leon kennedy]

well im screwed then <edit>,but im gunna download it any way

[Beakless]

Well, not really..
Rigs of Rods has a huge selection of special features you can turn off if you are getting lag, it all runs fine for me.

[Dj Demetrius]

Almost doesn't work on my 2GHz computer I use for web browsing, maybe i'll try it on my other one..

[jaybud4]

Runs fine on my 3 GHz. Gets somewhat laggy when you use that huge plane, though.

[Bobo00711]

This boring after 20 minutes

[mister.x]

damn this is too laggy

[jaybud4]

It's fun though, although crash something too hard and the wheels pop onto the other side and it becomes unusable... I was having so much fun with that monster truck, too!

[Amynue]

This game is AWESOME.
Full destruction

RoR is quite fun, in my opinion. I think it needs a couple of Ferraris, though. To balance out all the rigs. It's a bit rough around the edges, but I think it's a very promising project, though, and really want to see where it goes.

My only problem is that when I crash the Airplane, the screen always goes black and I have to hit Esc to quit the game. I suppose this is rather realistic, as an airplane crash would be pretty fatal, but it's also kind of annoying... Anyone else have that problem?

[Stigern]

Yeah, it also happens to me. Hope its fixed in the 0.31 version.

[Relys]

For me it's like: OMG THE GAME JUST FORZE. OMG I CAN BARLY MOVE IT'S SO LAGGY. OMG MY CAR JUST RAN INTO A VAN. OMG MY CAR IS ACTUALY "GOING INTO" THE VAN WITH OUT MAKING A DENT . OMG NOW ALL THE TEXTURES ARE GONE! OMG I THINK THIS IS THE FUNNEST GAME I HAVE EVER PLAYED!

[jaybud4]

OMG YOU NEED TO TURN OFF THE CAPSLOCK
Lol this game is fun.

[Relys]

Why? I can't distory ANYTHING!!1! IT SUX0RZ!

[jaybud4]

Upgrade your computer then. Get one that's not from 1990 :P
Just kidding, but seriously, it's your comp, not the game that's causing that.
Also, spellcheck for the good of the community.

WOW! that game is awesome!!! except it lags real bad on my 256 MB of RAM.

[Shephard]

Game runs great on my computer. Can't wait for the boats and waves. Next I hope for debris instead of rods and the skin stretching. But all and all a very fun and addicting game.

AMD 2.6 dual
4 Gig ram
ATI 1800 512mb (looking at the new GeForce 8800)
500 gb sata hdd

[CapnRat]

Running well on my computers. I'm really liking how you can import you own vehicles into this simulation. Time to make an FJ40!

[ego5000]

Hmm... Lag on your computers is interesting because i have 1,7 GHz and it lags only a little. (really little)

Edit: Grrr... How to add avatar? I searched about hour where to edit profile :P

[leon kennedy]
