How can you not like Citizen Erased man!

Recorded a lap 0.062 slower than my WR, how's that for consistency!

It's boring, that's how!

Damn, was hoping that lap time was a fluke

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

Orgun likes their Twilight songs probably.

Can't wait to see your lap then fail to imitate it!

 

[Arucardo]

Might as well help pad the list with my 2:02.634, might be able to go under 2 minutes but we'll see if I have the time to even try on Friday.

Also, markao seems to be gunning for Dilly

 

[Dilly]

He's probably going to win anyway, I only adjusted rear downforce and general gear ratio. Good setup on this track will be a big advantage. The time I have now is pretty much all I can do, I just hope he doesn't beat it by too much!

-edit-

Vid's up:

[Polyphony]

Holy shit at 1:25, I never took the corner that way... Gonna put a lap in this afternoon.

 

[Arucardo]

Damn, awesome lap Dilly. Looks like I need to play with my gear ratios a little, I used 2nd gear in a few corners that seem to be faster in 3rd, probably more stable too.

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

You're so fast on that downhill section. It's where you gain so much time over me. Not that I can match your pace anywhere, but yeah.

 

[Polyphony]

markao has entered the building.

 

[Dilly]

0.011, oh for crying out loud!

[Foliorum Viridum]

I just sold Phleg on the game. Watch out boys, you're going to have more competition now.

Spoiler

If he can figure out how to cut corners in this game too the cheating son of a ...

 

[Mad_Ban]

FV managed to talk me into buying this, and seeing how quick you guys are is very intimidating! But I'm looking forward to trying my best at these time trials to see how bad I truly am.

 

[Polyphony]

6 of the current top 7 drivers are from GAF. But there's also 5 seconds separating them, that's huge.

Current time is 2:02.976

Poor mark didnt' even make the top 5?

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

He hasn't posted his time so I haven't added it. Posting your time when you want to be on the board is the least you can do I bet he's waiting to improve it more before he posts it.

 

[Metalmurphy]

Someone make me look less shit please. Orgun?

Gonna try to do some runs now, and possibly stream it if I can figure out how to not make the framerate go to shit.

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

Has it been optimised more lately? I was getting 50fps in DX11 with everything on Ultra and 2xAA.

That's with FRAPS recording, I mean. 60 solid without it on. Really impressive compared to how it was. The first TT challenge I was recording at around 30fps. Not sure if it's just the different tracks or if they've done more crunching.

 

[Metalmurphy]

I think it's just the streaming app that's messing things up. With fraps I can cap it at 50, which is acceptable. But streaming it just goes all over the place.

 

[Dilly]

YES, YES I DID IT! ALMOST 0.5s!

1.57.514

 

[Metalmurphy]

Blergh... even at 800x600 it's capping at around 35 fps ( http://www.twitch.tv/metalmurphy/b/315938092 )




No streaming for me, I'll just record on fraps instead.

 

[Lucius86]

I don't have evidence, but I got a 2.02.8xx.

Need to record a vid, because the online recording business isn't working for me yet.

Just screenshot it When you load the track up it will show your best time there in that car, so there's your evidence! My times don't always upload either, but I record my laps so I don't really care about that.

Also, above picture is class.

 

[Polyphony]

Or you can log in here. Sometimes it takes a few minutes to retrieve your latest times, but if the lap was valid, then it should be recorded eventually.

 

[Dilly]

I'm going to be sad if markao beats my new time.

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

Mine isn't on there and I did it hours ago. Maybe because I alt+f4'd?

 

[Polyphony]

Hmmmm... that's possible! I always exit the game through the menus and I never had that problem. Maybe the game sends your time to the server upon exit.

Lol, Dilly and markao are making the rest of us look like a bunch of noobs.

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

I always alt+F4. Impatienttt!

Clearly my 2:07 was so fast I've obviously faked it and that isn't actually my video!

 

[mclaren777]

I always alt+F4. Impatienttt!

Yikes, I've never known anybody who does that with PC games.

 

[Metalmurphy]

Yeah it won't upload it if you ALT+F4. Happened to me before. Probably only does it once you're in the menu.

Ooops.

 

[_machine]

Couldn't resist having a go with the pad: 2:07.623

Love the track and car combination; the twisty bits are great for keeping your heart pumping and it's fun to blast through that straight. I probably would've nicked at least a second from the time If I hadn't spun on the last corner and ragequit'd. Now I just have to not be a lazy ass and set up the wheel.

Say what you will about the FFB, but for my crappy Momo it's easily the best FFB I've ever had with the wheel. I haven't tried nKp or iRacing though.

 

[Foliorum Viridum]

You realise you just went faster than me with a pad?

Man, I need to jump back in this tomorrow and set a respectable time. :'(

 

[Dilly]

I want a GT1 car.

 

[markao]

I'm going to be sad if markao beats my new time.

The previous lap had some room for improvements, so I might get close. For now my best is the 1.57.9 lap posted earlier, will see if I can get closer to Dilly's time and capture it in the process.


Have to say that Badhurst starts to look really nice, had not driven it for a while and even though you know everything is W.I.P., it still surprises me how much progress they make.

I want a GT1 car.

Me to, or GT3, some nice high powered endurance cars.

No! Stop!

 

[Lucius86]

I feel like the biggest idiot ever.

I just watched Foli's vid and I was going round the track in reverse - hence why it wasnt recording my times.

:-(

We need to get Lakitu added to the course, so if you're driving backwards he flies in front of your car and waves a sign at you.

Be sure to use the Time Trial mode instead of practice, you get warm tires and a running start.

Ha, I am such a numpty.

 

[Mad_Ban]

I'm happy that my style transfers across well to this game.

I just need to stop crashing under braking here. Bathurst is a trial by fire!

2:03.642

Still faster than you FV when I am going the right direction.

Video is uploading now - I want people to pick it apart because I am struggling for pace here (6 seconds from Dilly is not good enough!).

Edit And here it is - click away!

 

[Metalmurphy]

I GIVE UP!

The only single freaking lap I actually "finished" was a 2:03:456 but I hit the wall in a way that was in no way benefitial, specially since I had messed up the turn anyway, so count it or not I don't care.

Not sure I'll have time to do more laps but I know I can do better then that.


Uploading a video now.

 

[Arucardo]

YES, YES I DID IT! ALMOST 0.5s!

1.57.514

Down to a +0:00.065 gap now, lol.

 

[magawolaz]

Thank you Foliorum for giving me the reason to post this video again.

Dude got balls. No higher res?

 

[Mad_Ban]

As fun as it is doing this and this, I doubt it's going to get me very far time wise in this game.

 

[Metalmurphy]

How do u see full lap replays? oO

 

[Three60]

I'm at 2:02.311 at the moment, will try few more laps tomorrow.
