Added on April 21, 2008, 10:20 amOh, i dont see why so many people feel the GTR35 is difficult to handle. It's easy !!

Try Ferrari 599 ! tongue.gif

Nizam would agree ! Hehe


Added on April 21, 2008, 10:24 amOr better yet, try the Ford GT.

Seems like everybody also can't get Gold on "Overtake everyone with 1 lap using Integra" and "Cappucino time trial"

For the cappucino one, I got Silver coz the AI BANG me from behind on the straights (dumb AI driver) and I got a speed boost of up to 180km/h from that incident, but still cant get below 1'40". Was really laughing hard on the speed boost.
*
Integra one is easy.. no brakes, no release accelerator... flat out all the way, with the help of slipstream... easy easy only lar... make sure you dont come in contact with any of the AI.. if a slight nudge.. might as well start all over again. REMEMBER : FLAT OUT !!! Without getting hit or hitting, easy win. smile.gif

And yes, i play only in Pro mode.

imho, maybe you are trying too hard to be fast. when trying to pass AI cars, try to keep to the racing line as much as possible smile.gif

The Beyond the Apex docu is a bit short to me. I personally like the " Making Of" docu included in PAL GT4 Prologue - it shows much more of how PD tested cars on the track and its narrated by the sexy VBH  wub.gif  wub.gif  Plus they even did some of the Prologue test in real life smile.gif

Too bad there's no Making Of in GTTV. Also, i think you meant GT5 Pro..

Wow... yesterday online race all the way !! Haha... Kena kick butt like nobody's business.

Respect Japanese gamers... they dont simply langgar you one.. they are always very patient to try to overtake you very cleanly. I love it. The only person keep on langgar me is US one. Adui..

BTW, a first place is 5 million. Got twice... and whoa, yesterday alone, playing 2 and half hours to 3 hours online... earned 50 million already..

haha !! Did not win all lar... but low placing also more money than single player... nice !

At the moment, cannot host yet.

It's all random matchmaking.

Chances of joining a race are higher if you see more "people icon"

100% success so far for joining 2 "people icons" , 1 icon, will take at least 2-3 times of trying to connect.

3 icons, mostly difficult, as there are too many people accessing. Nowadays, very seldom see 3 icons lar.

Most popular event is the Suzuka one.. always 12-16 players one..

damn nice.

The online races are classified by "Performance Points"

Pro Mode ... most of the online races, are 700 points maximum. So everyone will tune their car to the max and you'll be surprise to see how well these dudes drive. They are amazingly quick !!

A GTR35 700 point car beat my Amuse 690 point car by 24 seconds.

Hahaha !! And oh yeah, i was starting from 4th. Was dropped to 8th in 2 laps.

Ok.. the trick is... the icons does not mean 100% you'll get in.. it's either someone is racing... and by the time you connect, there was noone else connecting.

Just let it run by itself,,, eventually you'll get in. Get errror, connect again.

A good cue is, after the "X" button disappeared from the screen... have a look at your line connection, if it stopped blinking, means you will definately not get in.. if it keeps on blinking like crazy.. means, you'll be in.

Aaron, come on la don't say that, bro..

My Amuse S2000 Vs Your Nissan GTR: Its obvious that my Amuse is lighter and can accelerate faster. To add to that, i'm on R3 tyres. And i notice that your GTR is not tuned to the max yet coz its only 618PP, compared to mine which is 700PP. nod.gif

Yesterday, you give me chance right? brows.gif  brows.gif

ADDED: And in the race at Suzuka, did you notice my M3 slowly crawling out from the sand laugh.gif haha... the first turn at Suzuka has always been my weakness.. kept missing the braking point. LOL I finish 2nd last in that race.
*
I saw you off to the sand. tongue.gif

I was 6th for that race.. from 16th... hehehe...

Was lucky also la.. a few people went off in front of me, and i somehow managed to avoid any collision with them ... tongue.gif

Nice race though.

My best finish in suzuka yesterday was supposed to be 2nd from 10th place... until some idiot knock me off in the straights. Argh !! i was freaking mad !

lol.

And yeah, i was on S2 tyres and zero tuning.. i actually forgot to change to my "B" settings. hehe. When i got connected, i was shocked 600 something points only... aiyoh.


Added on April 24, 2008, 11:19 amCool_Knights : Yea.. manual all the way since GT1 days. And i'm still using DS3 too. Only matter of getting used to it.

But i'm definately gonna get the new DFP GT though.

Easiest way to practice is use the Suzuka/Fuji (as there are twist and turns and long straights) circuit with a slow car, a cappuccino or something.. a swift maybe. Once mastered that, do the London track. With a lot of shifting due to tight and slow corners.

With enough determination, it's not that hard. You'll get used to it within an hour of practice. Also i'd recommend you use the right analog stick to accelerate and braking for a much more precise application.

You'll be able to play F1CE with manual with no problems after that... and F1 cars requires a lot of quick shifting... like Monaco. haha

Aaron, ya, between S2 and R3 tyres is a huge difference. Wah, u mean u start from 16th in that Suzuka yesterday? U know what, i start from 1st.. i was so happy that in the blink of an eye, i end up eating sand LOL... good lesson for me. Then all the cars started overtaking me like water swiftly gushing out of a tap. laugh.gif Tried to catch up, but the cars drivers were obviously faster. Nevermind, tonight we race again. thumbup.gif

Cool_Knights : Yes, i use manual transmission too. And i use a controller.

Yeah, that particular race , i started from 16th. Ended with 6th... brows.gif

That race, your PP 638 i think.. and M3 where can lari with the GTR, Amuse, GTs etc etc.. ? haha
