Goddamit I went home on my lunch break and my copy had been delivered. Left it for more than three hours to start on the update... 1.2GB is all that's been done since I left..!
My internet isn't THAT slow, the download must have slowed to a crawl. Thanks shitty fucking PSN. I just want to play... Needless to say pausing and resuming and away it goes, 36 hours left down to "just" 4... FML.

ehh... it's ok. Lack of rain effects on the windshield (dripping, smearing from the wiper, etc) doesn't really sell it though. I want to see some proper rain.

Nice one. It should just work like it does everywhere else in the game then.

The below gif is from the GT5 weather trailer wasn't it? GT5 still looks amazing in those conditions!

Huh? I'm finding the single player to be excellent.
It would solve a lot of the wailing and gnashing of teeth if people just saw it as an online only game.

That's the thing though... it's not online only, and has been a relatively prominent part of how they've promoted it.

Just up the resolution of the rain drops and I'll be satisfied with this honestly lol
Interesting statistics tweet from Sony regarding development of GT Sport: https://twitter.com/PlayStationEU/status/920291332605612033

Penalties seem a little more fair online now.
In addition to there being far less wrecks, I didn't seem to get penalized for being lightly clipped while clearly trying to steer around the nonsense, even slowing down to give them time to sort themselves.
Feels good.

Ah yeah lol, I completely missed the kmh difference. Still can't quite figure out what I'm doing incorrectly that keeps me from going below 14.9 seconds, though. It feels like my full throttle speed is cut in half compared to the tutorial video. I believe Auto-Drive defaults to off on intermediate. ABS is on by default in settings.
Good to hear, what about getting rear ended?

Someone mentioned earlier that the other person was penalised in this situation.
I am sort of concerned about someone breaking too early into a turn. That can cause a lot of problems. I guess we just need to keep a safe distance back. It's probably my biggest issue when racing online.
Safe distance and I guess ready to brake is all you can do. Probably where the sportsman ranking will be in effect more.

You better check that Auto-Drive setting, in demo mine had braking on despite choosing the option on the far right that was supposed to not have it on.
New download.

Small world eh.
Well, good session then, still having fanatec wheel issues after updating fw, but might have needed a ps4 reboot.
Can see myself putting in a good few hours into this game.

I'll probably never race online.
GT3 custom races in various tod erryday!
The beta got me super hooked on the missions too. Very creative races in there. Some remind me of the clever Test Drive:Ferrari Racing Legend career races-
Mind your fuel and tires, don't lose too many places, etc.
Sure is a hell of a lot better than 3,500 3-5 lap races smashing your way to first for XP.
This is almost too accurate a description of what I've been doing in FM7 all week. LOL
Yikes. Gotta wait then. Damn near at my dat cap =/

if your drafting and don't have a long enough run to overtake just sit off their left or right, if they break early you beat them and if they break correctly you can release sooner than them and get past them before the apex. That should work with nearly everyone assuming they know the lines (and your good enough to pull it off).

Finally climbed back to SR B, got rear-ended twice but didn't get SR penalty.

The old formats are such a slog.
I found pCARS career simple and refreshing.
And I haven't played a GT game since 4 so this SP stuff is great, really addicting. Loving the circuit portion mode too.

SR ranking is kinda strange.... someone rammed me away and took my spot and I got SR minus and had a red B at the end of the round though I didnt hit anyone all race, only got bumped into from the rear multiple times.
Also he got a 8 second penalty for ramming me away and I was 2 seconds behind him, he still was in front of me in the "final" rankings???

Switched to X/O for acceleration/brake and got Silver on my first try with the license challenge. It was a night and day difference. Looks like my R2 trigger might be failing on me as it seems to only register up to half pressure rather than full pressure. RIP my launch DS4
Fortunately, I see it as entirely off on my end. Appreciate the heads up, though.

My workday is dragging along. Seeing all these beautiful screenshots isn't helping. 😂 I can't wait to get home.
Looking forward to it. My all-time favorite GT is A-Spec. 4 was fun, but started to lose me, and I completely dropped off during the PS3 gen. I really got into Forza during the 360 generation and it became my favorite series for a while. This generation has been a strange one for me though. My interest in Forza has waned, and while I'm still quite skeptical about GTS, I'm hoping this new approach does something for me that this and other similar series haven't in recent years.

Question for you guys. What level is your HDR intensity set at?
It seems at startup when they ask you to increase the slider until the checkered boxes are barely visible, mine ends up at HDR 5. If I push it a little bit higher, I think my TV can hit HDR 6.
What's yours at. I have a Sony Bravia X800D.

Where do you find that, settings? Or during the boxes set up?
Hm, mine I think had to be set to 15. I'm on the same set as you actually.

Woo...medal chasing on some these Arcade single races is intense!! Professional difficulty gives no quarter and you really feel the marathon chase through the entire race clawing up to first, often to the bitter end.
I'm finding it far more satisfying than blowing past the competition with a tuned car on calendar events within the first lap in prior Forza/GT games. Actually really just digging these challenges overall, feels like pushing through the checklist of an older PS2-era racing game, but obviously with physics and road grip unlike any other game I've played.
Having a wonderful time and this is coming from a total Forza fanboy that has generally disliked GT in the past. (I do wish I had an HDR supported TV though, some of these blinding sunrises over the crest of the track...I just imagine they come across more natural than how I view them)

You received the wheel already, didn't you? Get on it!
