    Jesus Christ, every time I see your signature I want to put a gun to my head.

    Anyway to be OT, I discovered it from Rigs of Rods.

    I discovered NG through the Cryengine video back in 2011.

    I first got ror. In November 2011. My god when i first drove the Honda i was like omg. Then the rest of gabes awesome cars. Then i was thinging ror is getting old. ( bags no huge updates ect) So i looked up new car games with car damage. The first beamng video was found. Just one day after it came out. Then i found the fourm. Then join when beamng came out. And so far beamng is awesome ( if i can get the update to work )

    Description of this video back in Oct. 2012. Was looking for Minecraft content and this was Kurt's newest video on my first visit to his channel.

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bQkWQmethEY

    Promptly forgot about it after getting RoR until I registered my account.

    I found it through that nerdcubed video. Didn't expect so many people to find it through that. I'm very glad I watched that video... :)

    I was just browsing YouTube and a video showed up about it on the recommended videos. Finally YouTube did something right :)

    Heh, I'd only been on ROR for about 4 months when I saw the BeamNG thread. Came over, watched the first video when it was at something like 20k views and waited. August 2013 came around and I bought it within something like 6 hours of release. Used mobile data to download it. :p

    Yep, nerdcubeds video got me hooked, downloaded the demo the same day as he posted the video. Proceeded playing but unfortunately got a very large boner. After righting my desk and placing the monitor and keyboard back in place I had to smash the take my money button very very hard.

    I still remember the release.. I downloaded the demo first and it downloaded pretty quickly since I was one of the first and then I bought the game and played the demo while it took a long time to download.

    I watched the countdown end on my phone in the middle of a water park an hour away from my house. >_>
    That was a shitty trip. Would have rather been home playing Beamng.

    I was on the Rigs of Rods forums when I found the post of Gabster saying "screw it" and had the unfinished 2 cars there in the attachment. One I forgot what it was called the other that Mitsubishi space wagon. I checking that forum sometimes. Eventually someone said that he went over to beamng. So I checked it out. And then I was like "HOLY CRAP"! I check this game and the dev blog frequently to see if it updates. I should really get a better motherboard though. My graphics card is in compatibility mode and is as powerful as my old one, but not horribly laggy.
