Like the title says what will you be doing first?

I shall probably do a few races then do some exploring of the map. Maybe climb a mountain.

They reckon it will take 2 and a half hours real time to drive accross it, it will be awsome

Wow, that is pretty damned big if it will really take 2.5 hours to drive it. I wonder if it will be so big as to be repetitive and unwieldy?

yea its seriosly massive, actually this game has gained a guiness world record for bein the biggest open world game money can by at the moment

Well, biggest is not always best so i'm assuming there'll be a fair few 'dead' areas on the map. Still, I like an open world game.....I just hope its as good as i'm expecting it to be.

Your point is well taken. Sometimes a map that is extremely huge can also be very repetitive and exploring becomes tedious. I remember playing the original True Crime: Streets of LA, and originally I was really excited because the map was massive, particularly for that time. After driving around a bit, though, it became absurdly boring because all the streets and areas looked very much the same. Exploring was also no fun at all because there was nothing to find, no cool areas to see, no collectibles or incentive to free roam. I really hope that this isn't the case with FUEL. Because if it is then the huge map will actually be more of a liability than a strength.

I have this on the 360 and it is NOT boring at all, I've spent hours driving in the one little place you start in and now literally just unlocked the second little bit...

I wouldn't like to drive from one side to the other mind... would take ages!

Well the first thing i done was have a drive around and then found all the Vista points on the first camp.

Great Game. Took me 30mins to get from 1 camp to another.

Just got this about 2 hours ago and lovin it so far
