has the patch fixed the game invite function? in v1.2 you could only invite a friend into your game if it was unranked (didnt work for ranked games), so just wondering if you can now invite friends into ranked games...

Thats so gay that you have to have version 1.3 to play online, the stupid patch won't install for me. And where the hell did my avatar go? Now I got to find it in my computer and put it back.

I remembered I had the DVD crack on, so I got the original exe, but now the patch installer freezes. I tried reinstalling Carbon but Autorun from the DVD won't even open. I can't find the NFS Carbon uninstaller anywhere either.

IMO this patch is completely worthless, it doesnt address the most common problems that people are having with carbon like random crashing everywhere

Yeah, seems to be addressing online play mostly. Hopefully they'll soon release a patch addressing the REAL issues.

Don't get your hopes up man, EA will do the same thing as they did with MW. They will ditch the game and stop supporting it, because they feel like they have done there job and support for Carbon now when they have released this utmost STUPID patch :evil:

I hope my post doesn't offend any one because my last 2 was deleted, the first one i can understand because i did use the F word and EA together ;) but the second one did just get deleted for no reason by the moderator :?:

I don't really play much online, so until they release a patch that actually makes the game more playable (i.e. removes the crashing-to-desktop bugs), I won't bother updating either.

Nice to see that EA have listened to their customers' concerns as usual :roll:

Maybe you should get a new graphicscard, or maybe a new set of glasses??

Anyway, i got a question: i got the Dutch version of Carbon. Do I need the dutch patch?? If yes, where is it??, i havent found it yet....
Who found out you can get milk from a cow, and what the hell was he doing at the moment?

i've seen it on a gf 6600 gt (or sth like that...) and it still looked like a... i don't know.. Bugs Bunny cartoon? Lots of silly colourful lights. Cars are made of something similar to plastic. If You want to see a good graphics buy yourself a nfs:most wanted or toca: race driver.

btw i have a gf fx5600. Is that a piece of sh***?
100% dissapointed :/

Maybe thats why it looks like crap to you, an FX5600 isn't exactly good.

add another 2000 to your 5600 then it will be good, now its just acceptable for Carbon

so how can we fix the stupid black box that disappears after 2 seconds.
