wow u guys are damn good, i only managed like 7:43 for nurburgring with a tier 3 gtr vspec., and u guys can do better with a tier 2.....

The tier is not really an issue. THe real issue is wether we can control the car or not
If you ask me to play those supercars like Zonda-R... I can only get about 7:20... suck because hard to control...

I watch some video on youtube, but unfortunately, they get good lap time due to turning on all the assists (you can see the 3 assist icons flashing at bottom right corner)

Basiclly I don't like to use too much assists, cuz it make the driving feels weird... Currently only using Low Steering assist (cuz I play on keyboard...)

Ya hardcore racers will try to get the hang of not having ABS,TC and SC..
Kinda hard at 1st as you can't do heavy braking if you're not driving str8, but slowly you'll get used to it

Yes indeed, I started playing SHIFT with all the assists off. But found that it really no way to control even a tier-2 car without turning on streering assist...

Driving the crazy Zonda-R, careful not put your rear tire on the "road-banks" (the stripe things, what it called?), else it will almost guerentee spin-out when you tap the brake ><"

I tried a stock GRT Spec-V on that... what name again (quite a hard-to-read-name) track, only did it 7.40, not a clean lap cuz not familiar with it's handling yet...

here's my personal advice, DON'T use steering assist even if you are keybod warrior.. I started the game using keybod, NO steering and NO braking assist, or else it won't be fun, it'll be like the system controling the car for you.

The only assist i used during keybod days was TC,SC and ABS..

Now that I'm on steering, I prefer to off all assist..
Keep in mind this game consist the simulation element in it, so don't bring the high speed arcade racing habit of other previous NFS to this game, its not the same..

with 50% arcade too

the arcade part was intended to provide the "fun" element into the game..

what steering u use now? got any diffrent before this?

hi guys, got question..
why i can't play this game with joystick? xbrand one. or this game not support joystick? i play nfs undercover before n can play ok. huhu.

thanks

Check your controller status at Game Controllers under Control Panel. Check functionality of all button there, make sure all button function. Inside game, go to Option > Game play > Control. Edit controls there for your button configuration that suit with you. Hope this will help a bit

judging from the mininum specs, my lappie just a lil above that. LOL.

tried the *ehem* version first, and i manage to run it... until the first corner of the 'test lap'. it crash. then i repeat the step. 10 times.

so i just dengar je la "the best car, the best driver bla bla" 10 times. LOL. and it pretty sluggish. so i think cannot play la. thx for the feedback guys.

i think im revert back to ProStreet lah camni

Ahaha, heeeheeheehe...

Please update to latest patch~ Kalau tidak you will just keep crashing...

I actually drive with all my assists off (despite being on keyboard), and as a result this made driven RWD cars much much much more challenging than driving a 4wd or FF car.

Especially in some tracks with tight corners (especially bloody S-turns or Z turns), I literally just fly out on the 2nd turn, because car just becomes nigh uncontrollable.

Perhaps my settings is the root of the problem because I left them on default... (i drive a stock cayman s on nurburgring and the laptime was only a lousy 8.45), or perhaps my driving is not very refined for RWD.

Maybe you guys can give me some tips on how to set up my car, and/or my driving.

RWD ... I rather kill myself lolz ...
Even the "slower" RX-8 giving me lots of trouble trying to control it... Need lots of fine-tuning over the suspension to make it stable enough.

Ironically, I have the same problem hahaha. RX8 was not a big problem with tier 1 upgrades (in fact I found it quite driveable). However once tier 2 upgrades came in it started to scare me. And tier 3 was nearly undriveable...

I WORK converted it.... it so shake shake when on low speed~ EVen I try to eliminate the oversteer, but it still keep happening... duh~
