When you are feeling like you are losing control, sometimes there is a knack to equal out the skid by turning the other way; Don't. Instead this what happens when turn more forcefully, in that direction, then take control of the turn. Also it's not good practise to turn and accelerate or decelerate really.

Is it as difficult to drive in real life?

no clue. also I can’t remember which elise is in GT5, so maybe it’s a more powerful model

before GT5:P, it did not have a reputation, in my mind, as being tough, like old TVRs, as an example.
 
VITTUSAATANAPERKELE! FUCK YOU IC-1 LICENSE TEST, FUCK YOU IN THE ASS!

After a few hours of grinding that sonofabitch trial, I got it to 26.703 ->26.701 and now
26.700. FUCK YOU BRAKING TEST, JUST FUCK YOU!

Phew, got that out of my system. Feel better. My apologies for the hars language. I think I will open a beer to congratulate myself for golding that one.
 
i have had MR-S turbo, and I can assure you, high powered MR car is very easy to slide.... you need to be extra careful with the inputs.

just seen a few minutes ago on spanish TV, madrid event and ......translator-san

Holy shit, anyone else using a DFGT during the night?

I swear I'm gonna wake the neighbours, Is the Force feedback meant to be this loud or is my wheel broken?

I have my sound all the way down and haven't noticed it during the day.
 
i got the game yesterday and fuuuuuuuucccckkkk at night racing with weather on lemans. the whole time i spent on that track i was saying what the hell.

The Top Gear special event with the Lotus Elise is impossible. It just fucking spins out on every turn. Are it's wheels made of stone or something? Even with ABS and TC on I still cannot make turns.

Then there is that one turn you can usually flat out after hammer head and the other turn but if I do the car spins, spins and spins some more. What is wrong with this god damn event!!??


fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu.jpg

I have the same problem. That Elise is a nightmare to drive.

BTW the picture upload stuff doesn't seem to work right now, and I want to show off my Ferrari 599 so baaaaaad. :(
 
The top gear thing also kicked my ass when I tried it. Not in a rush to go back to it.

Time to start up for the day again. I did random early a spec stuff last night instead of trying to progress forwards more.
 
Oh I also got that Dodge pick-up from the IA license but winning the Daytona race with that thing is impossible. I tuned the shit out of it and it still can't o past 210 km/h. This makes it impossible to win on that track when all the other cars have a way higher top speed. I also can't cistomize the transmission although I bought the expensive thing.
 
Has there been any confirmation on whether the stealth cars will be available via DLC later on or not? I know the CE chrome-lined cars have been confirmed to be exclusive forever. Just wanting clarification for the stealth models.
 
You know what I love about this game?,

It makes you think about the simple act of driving on a whole new level, during the license tests for example you'll be shown what seems to be a stupidly simple little bend that you have to navigate, you think, "ok, piece of piss", but then suddenly that simple bend becomes an obstacle that requires thought, precision, and finesse, combining rate of acceleration, brake control, gear control, angle of approach and exit etc, nothing but GT does that for me, this game has it's faults but the driving experience isn't one them, and at the end of the day that's what this game is all about.

yup it is a driving game after all
 
Soooooooooooo funny to see all these people around the world bitching about how they miss gold at the license tests :lol. Just awesome lol. What a great game it is :D.
 
Well, ordered the Driving Force GT wheel from Amazon since it went down to $99. Should be here Saturday with one day shipping. <3 being a Prime member.

It'll be my first racing wheel, so I'm excited to see how it works for me.
 
Has anyone been "stuck" in an online lobby? I literally couldn't join, spectate, anything. The absolute only thing I could do was complain via chat to other people :lol
 
Wow, the course creator is a bit disappointing. I wanted to make a kart track go around the start building of the Tokyo kart track, but you can't do that. I guess LBP/MNR raised my expectations in user generated content too high. :(
 
About GTTV (probably the most overlooked feature yet lol)

You can export the movies to PSP - but in fact you can watch them on any portable device.

It's an mp4 file in 420x270 that you can copy from the XMB to an external HDD/PSP etc.

The same thing happened to me. I also got stuck in an online race that would not let you exit the race. I had to completely quit the game to exit the lobby.

i haven't bought the game yet but it seems like pd just grasped at way too much while making this game. still stoked to get it though.
 
So it took me 70 tries in a row to get A-8 licence gold and the game crashed after I went plast the finishing line. I've tried a further 40 times to no avail. Can anyone give me a slither of help please?
