What changes have you noticed since the update (08/01/08)?

Just list whatever changes you've noticed.

1. It is no longer possible to powershift with the G25's H shifter + clutch. Powershifting as in never lifting off the accelerator, and just punching the clutch in and out and changing gears. This will make things more even for everyone. It is still possible to shift quicker, but players have to be more careful now as misshifts are a lot easier to attain.

2. Is no longer possible to quit online races. No more disconnects unless the host has real bad connection or physically turns the PS3 off.

3. You can actually hear the turbos spool and the Blow Off Valves (BOV) now. The Amuse S2000 sound amazing. Exhaust noise seems to have increased too.

4. R3 tires really do feel like soft compound tires now.

5. I can't confirm this, but I think punters and the like get black flagged now. Their car gets a permanent ghost effect.

I'm loving this update so far. Now just get GTTV PPV going PD so I can download the Ferrari movie!

Thanks for the info! Is appreciated!

wow!!!!this all sounds very good indeed!!
cant wait to try everything out....

spyrrari.

Confirmed the race exit. I see cars stalled out on the side of the road now instead of people leaving the race. I take it even if the host leaves the race still goes on? More reason to keep going and not give up!

Black Flag unconfirmed.

The updates 2 and 5 Threshold mentions just sound like the best thing since sliced bread I know he can't confirm number 5 but damn they sound like just what is needed in the event running up to private rooms! looks like we will see some manners from the random idiots at last

Oh no! I wish this would be in place just in online and TT because I like to slap gears especially while I fool around.

Ford GT is now easier to handle. Even with a N3 tires, I can control better than I could ever drive ot with S2 tires. It's easier to get out of the sand pit without getting bogged down in it. Dust off the track no longer has the square pixel on them. Cockpit view shadows isn't as jagged as before.

The list of events!!! Please

Glad to see that they're always improving the sound ,I konw they already did it for the Europe GT5P's release ( in addition of Zo6's digital HUD et C4's Steering Wheel) !

if they get black flagged, this will be a good start for online playability...even in the expert events this is happening to me...ruins the race. however if the car gets a ghost effect for the entire race, i could see these type of players using it to their advantage

Any news on in game music? before anyone posts, i know lots of you don't like driving with music but, I do. Can someone check please.

Thanks

Wall tapping seems like a BIG No No! BARELY scratched it on the oval 600pp and took a 4 second. Looks good on that. I just drove through a guy when I was trying to pass on the grass. It was weird but I was close screen view so I didn't really see how close we were. No penalty and no tap. I don't know the ghosting is strange.

Can someone confirm better handling with a SIXAXIS/DS3?

4 seconds isn't enough to stop the wall surfers at HSR, 10 seconds would probably do, and more of a loss of control of the car when making hard contact or sliding across the barrier for a long amount of time. penalties should be judged by the angle of attack and speed

for expert - PP600 Daytona oval
- PP750 Fuji
- F430/GTR/Z06 High Speed Ring

TT - 600 HSR
600 Eiger
700 HSR
700 Suzuka long

lol Both events are Perfect for Wall Riders...

Thank you!

Any of these is a world event, or are all of them region-locked?
