Bloodyhell D-MVN i just cant hit teh sweet spot on the first corner on that Daytona Road track with the R34, no abs so i seem to lock the fron up = no steering and aaaaaaaaargh its doing my head in!!

Ur 1.5s faster and i know where i can get half a second, if only i can get the first corner right....... if only.

D-MVN im coming for your lap time!!

Have you got a Wheel?

I think we need more CS members to go for this lap record. Just dont know what other ppls Online names are.

Mines EZRA182 and im a GT5P addict.

I'd beat him with ease so I'll allow him a bit longer before I steal his crown........again

For only £17.99 I'm not complaining, I actually think it is great value and an excellent game. If others disagree then that is their right.

The G25 combined with a Playseat is a great way to play the game. I've found the cars to be far more controllable when left foot braking combined with the accelerator. Previously I had been right foot braking but the cars were less stable going into corners.

Too much weight transfer with right foot braking. 1st game I've played where how you brake actually affects the attitude of the car.

I got mine on saturday, and only done one race on it so far, havent really had the urge to put it back on..

I got the F430 last night, sounds good (i'm only on TV sound at the moment until my longer optical cable turns up).

 

[sneeks]

The F430 is a fun car to drive, some great powerslides to be had

 

[Dansta]

is there someway to cheat online?
A few times now i have been gettin ready to start a race in whatever position im in... its scrolling across the front of the track shwing everyone rolling and suddenly some f**ker goes flying through everyone even though we haven't even started yet, and the sod ends up miles ahead when the race has started and the rest of us are left with no chance of catching up...

Anyone?

 

[sneeks]

No I've never seen that happen but I've only had one online race using the UK version.

my misses is gettin bloody good at it lol she said "wow its got the noises off the first GT" i was like :S of all the things to remeber lol she is very random tho.

 

[BIFCAIDS]

Yeah i believe a wheel would be more forgiving,

Thinking im going to get one of these G25 tings, its quite hard to try and get my thumb pressure just right for the throttle and steering is near impossible with the analogue stick.

its well easy with the pad dont use the buttons for the gas n brake change the triggers to brake (L2) and gas (R2) then change the right analoge stick to up for shift up n down for shift down simple.

Also on that matter after reading some past posts on page 14+ do you really have nothing better to do the game looks bloody good n at the end of the day ITS A GAME, not real life. yes its nice to have amazing graphics but what does it matter as long as your having fun, space invaders, best game ever cos its so addictive graphics are crap tho but who cares your tryin to kill the aliens your not bothered about how detailed the lazer beams are or the colour of the flying sorcer that goes across the top lol

 

[Mack]

I use right analoge for gas/brake and left for steering, seems to work well and feels intuative with gear up and down on the shoulders, and you get good control. Then I set square and x to look left and right to admire the interiors of the cars.

Im loving the game, graphics are amazing, especially the interiors, which I love, always been disapionted by games just using bumper cams. I think they have made a huge improvement on the handling. In past ones you could floor in in a zonda on a second gear corner and you would get nothing but understeer, do that in the M3 on this one and you are going sideways/around. Its a lot less forgiving now.

It seems quite tricky to build up cash, as winning races is hard (which is a good thing really). I also think they didnt want everyone winning all the cars quickly so online has more variety of cars. And how hard is it to get gold on the lap time ones!? I tried for ages in the capachino and got within a few tenths, but that was getting lucky drafting a huge pack of cars, im miles away from the M3 one, almost seems impossible (I know its not).


Onlines the only disapointment, but I have never been impressed by any racing online since drafting nose to tail with 43 others from across the globe around daytona, laggless, back on Nascar 2003 (The last of a great racing series before EA raped the licence)

Eryl I don't think he is saying that gaming is a unhealthy addiction, I think he was simply commenting on people picking the game apart for some graphic issues rather than just enjoying it.

[Eryl182]

I kinda have a tendance to read things and my mind puts it together as somthing else.

So SneekyB are you going to Venture a lap @ Daytona in the R34??

 

[Dansta]

Played last night... 1st place on the final lap... LAST CORNER and some funking t**t smacks into me which causes ME to get a time penalty.... go see through and 5 f*****s overtake THROUGH me!!!! ARRRRGH! pmsl

[Mack]

Thats what you think lol. The update usually fails at least once, mine did about 10 times. Aparently it does resume the download though rather than starting again.

 

[riz]

i got the dc5 then gtr, what should i get next?

 

[Andy_J]

you'll also need a cappucino and an evo IX to do all the races in A&B

 

[Mack]

and an M3 and F430 for A.

 

[sneeks]

You'll also need an American Muscle car.

 

[Andy_J]

[Andy_J]

So i've to save for a F430 then, how many credits do i need for one of them?
