4 player lan?

[Jameshkim87]

Hello, how can i lan 4 players on gt5?
I have two ps3, two gt5 and two tvs. Is it possible or do i need four of everything?

It says it is 1-2 players, so i would think it would be possible, but then again it says leaderboards and those are nowhere to be found, LOL.

You need four of everything and a true LAN isn't possible - all the machines need to be connected to the internet and, short of unique PSN accounts which only have each other as friends, there's no way of stopping external machines joining your room.

Which is exactly what we did for the UKGTP14 LAN, only with ten of everything.

@ fAMINE.
If i go through community and then coffee cup to set up my online lounge would i be correct in assuming only people on my friends list can enter the lobby and race.

Thanks.

^That.
Create an account with only your four friends added and it WILL be impossible for others to join

That is wrong. It will also be open to friends of your friends, friends of those friends, etc.

Not since the most recent update - only friends of the person who created, or currently owns, the room in a Private lobby may join.

For UKGTP14 we set up LAN-specific accounts. No-one but the other LAN attendees was on the friends list of the accounts. It meant populating them with cars, but a bit of B-Spec Remote Racing and a gifting chain meant we got all 40 cars in all twelve accounts (that's 480 cars) in under two months including the PSN hack and outage.

The only thing stopping you doing it with 2 of everything is the fact that there are no 2 player online races. (on one PS3)

Thanks guys; its confirmed then.
Gt5 has no LANing capability... That sucks, i hope they add this function in Gt6.

It has no specific LAN mode, but you can still create one.
