I'm not seeing the problem with load times people are complaining about... they're better than GT:P imo.

I get annoyed at GT because most races are only a lap or two... which makes you have to switch the track often. So it can seem like there's a lot of loading. But the actual load times for a track aren't obnoxious. Nothing about the game is obnoxious.

What's the most realistic/best Force Feedback setting for the G27? And why is this game so awesome?

Well I have g25 and I found the default of 5 to be way to strong/unrealistic. I tried 4 and was happy with that, still a bit strong but much better. I might try 3 later on .. but that might be too weak.

I've also got the steering set to pro, It's just what seems to feel best ... though I have no idea what the steering settings actually do. Anyone know?
 
So I just found out that there is NO OPTION to disallow tuned cars in online racing. We had a race going on, limited to Audi R8 or BMW M3 and some guy came in with a fully tuned M3 and obviously smoked us. I was baffled and asked him, he told me he was able to use his career mode M3. THERE IS NOT WAY TO RESTRICT THAT. FIX THAT SHIT POLYPHONY. What a great way to ruin the balance.
 
I have got a question... What is the purpose of sharing a driver and a car if you can't use them while you are sharing?
 
:lol :lol They thought 500k would be playing? Jesus, way to low ball your own franchise but at least they are doubling the cap.

Really good to see that PD will support this game well after release, it's why I purchased the game instead of renting.
That and I will be putting well over 50+ hours into the game :)
 
Damn it seems like you guys are having fun.
THINK ABOUT THE 2D TREES AND TEH JAGGIEZ !!! >8(
Stop having fun !! Guys, stopit !

calm down, they are going to add in restrictions
 
Would it be ok to add you peeps to my friends list?

I wanna do some online karting with you all.

Did some races earlier but they where a disaster.......miss matched cars, dicks doing donuts on the exit of 130R etc.

Edit: My PSN ID is in my profile.(Yes it has a typo!)

What is the force feedback level you guys use for the DFGT wheel?

FF is purely a personal preference. But you generally want it to be at least at 5. Just test that and the higher levels to see which one you like best.

Oh man, you can turbocharge the 787B :lol

:lol

Still have memories of taking this "tuned" beast around Le Mans on GT4.

I´m glad those supercars can still have their turbos upgraded.

Unrestricted turbo pressure FTW!

<--- Add me up, ID is my username. I'm hoping to get some karting sessions in today, I haven't played online yet.

Yeah, after the poor AA implementation in GT5:P, this game does indeed feel much cleaner in the IQ department. :D
if you have a sony bravia a newer one anyways. head over to the av forums for settings. i have a ex500 1080p 120hz, and i use sharpness 5. should not be higher than that for most modern lcd's.

edit: technically should be 0, as sharpness is legacy crt bs. but, somehow having it up a tad helps for menus and such
 
Who else has CGTS? (Chronic Gold Trophy Syndrome)

I get silver or bronze in a race/test. NOT GOOD ENOUGH WILL NOT QUIT UNTIL I GET GOLD :lol

Yeah I have severe CGTS. I have to be extremely frustrated with a challenge in order to pass on the gold and move on to the next one.
 
I need a damn 458 italia...........

280,000c needed, I have 220,000c

And every time I get a little closer to the needed amount I have to spend on tuning :(

Oh and Toyota Celica 1600c (1969?) with a spoiler is EPIC!!!! :lol

Yup.

Doesn't help that there is a trophy for getting all the Gold. :/
 
Only played for an hour today. Completed the 90's Japanese challenge with my Lancer Evo IV, which I tuned a bit (more hp, less weight). Feels much better now, even though it was only 30hp extra an a slight weight reduction. Then I also did a few license tests.
Going to try B-spec next time!
 
I have read that setting de DFGT in proffesional or simulation doesn´t make a difference because those options are only for old wheel models. Is this true ?. Makes the change really a difference?. What about "assisted driving steering"?. Makes turning the wheel less hard?.

I really don't even see jaggies. 4xAA. Turn down your sharpness.

same here.

I'm playing at 720p on a 50" screen. my head is around 7 feet away. I can't see jaggies during gameplay.

I see a little tearing (only a little on the non city tracks.) and the shadows are ragged, but I don't see really rough aliased edges while racing.

And i rally like how upgraded the London track is, visually. it's brighter inside the car, colors seem more vibrant and i think they changed the time of day a bit as it's not as shadow heavy.
 
I feel like Japanese developers will never get shadows this gen :(

DMC4 and MGS4 omg :(

To be fair, very few western powerhouse studios have even gotten it. ND has it right. And not many others.

Severance blade of darkness got them 10 years ago with a TNT 2 ( Castlevania lord of shadows creators by the way ). I tend to think today´s algorithms for shadows are under-studied...

GOWIII also got it...I think they had one guy that specifically coded shadows.

It doesn't work that well anyways.

Bumper cam is superior anyways :P
I like the cockpit view much more and it really, really sucks that the head tracking only works in the arcade mode. What the fuck?

I got it to work very well, but head tracking is not as exciting as I thought it would be. Maybe if they patch it to work in GT mode I will give it another chance.
