Minor Gran Turismo 5 Update 1.12 Now Available

Gran Turismo 5 September 3rd, 2011 by Jordan

In a surprise move, Polyphony Digital has released a new GT5 update less than one week after 1.11 brought a batch of bug fixes and a Jeff Gordon driving suit.

Update v1.12 continues with the bug-fixing theme, though the only documented change is a correction to a glitch with the Limited Slip Differential controller for FF cars. As such, this update is very light, weighing in at only 13MB. Thanks to all of you who sent this in so quickly!

    The AT gearbox still bit f’d up, because when slightly pressing throttle it should change upper gear. What it now does is sticking at high revs. I noticed this because i wanted to race in normal tires in wet but it is impossible this way.

    There are two features I would like to see in GT5. Caster settings and tire pressure adjustment. I think that those two featurs would make GT5 more realistic.

      Tire pressure is probably the most important set up.

    Then why don’t we have a little series of GT5 races to settle this. Me (Mangusta36) and magic ayrton versus amac and tj?

      That has to be the best idea i’ve ever heard :D A GT5 showdown…. :D No driver aids allowed , real grip , 3 Lap Nurburgring24H ……
      Now you have 2 options , in adding TJC_69 ( My main account ) I cannot use that account until the 29th of this month , I was temporarily blocked for reasons I cannot disclose here. But I will let you guys add it and you can check out my stats out on the 29th……

      Any races will have to be done through my duping account , TJ_McBigCack ( No stats as I never use it )

      So boys what will it be ? GT500 ? This would have to be clean , fair & respectful tho , as I do not race with Top Gear Test Track noobs.

      :D

      I don’t have time to do it for a few weeks, but honestly it won’t make you any righter Mangusta, you are still going be a wrong out of touch air head. Plus you would easily me nothing to me Mangusta I am fairly certain. Just in my 100% stock Peugeot 908 I can run 3:27′s on also of La Sarthe without pushing hard, and I run easy 1:27′s at toyko, up to 3:26′s and that is with a controller, as my wheel won’t be ready until the end of the month.

      We have to get the other. Two.

      I say recommended list NASCAR at daytona, pagani at monza, sls amg at nurburgring ( non 24 hour ), and karts at autumn ring.

      TJC_69

      I can wait until the end of the month , thats no problem for me as I will have access to my main account. I say we teach them a lesson Amac….

      :D

      Those races will take too long I think , a 3 lapper at Nurburgring24 hour will suffice , 20 minutes , 1 race. Ring is King.

      Amac500

      Again Mangusta, it can’t always be what you want. Why would we race your exact preferences? Plus drafting at Daytona would so us nothing. And is Mr. Ayrton even doing it, no.

      If you want to talk about retarded comments MagicAyrton, then how about these beauties that you’ve dropped….

      ” Forza 2 was the best one…. ” ( Then what are you doing here?? )
      “I am not a forza fanboy but you most certainly are a fanboy…. ” ( You can’t take the truth I see , and your reply is as lame as your opening denial )
      ” No DLC Cars/tracks….. by Christmas then I am one of the first to stop buying GT games ” ( Bye Bye, you won’t be missed :D )

    Then why do they have the 2005 le mans track? And yes I see the repley button, plus I’m not weird, just stop acting like retarded fools and grow up.

      I also don’t live near a golf course, plus, road atlanta is only 20 years old, has no significance, and I never said anything about spa.

      Le Mans 05 / 09 is featured as it’s one of the most famous racetracks and racing events in the World. I remember hearing about this track when I was 5 years old .

      I never heard of the track you mentioned ever before , probably because it’s C**p.

      Why are you talking about this disused track anyway ? It’s never coming to GT5.

      I didn’t say you lived near a golf course , reading before you post may help you.

      * Wild Applause * Took you long enough to find it….. ( After I told you twice lol )

      Your’e not on the same intellectual level in any subreference plane as my train of thought entirely escapes your most basic grasp of the hitherto conversational reality dimensional subspace.

      Dock face ? Are you 12 ?

      Ring, ring***** this is common sence calling you again Mangusta. Le Mans, the worlds most famous and popular endurance course. The 2005 version was on GT4, which at the time of release was the surest Le Mans track. So just like they included the GT4 cars, they included the GT4 Le Mans layouts. No surprises there. So clearly your home track of Like Rock and the Thompson golf coure will not be included in the game. There is 0 reason to put them in the game, and te racing leagues you think should be in and think mater won’t. No British touring cars and MX5 cup won’t matter to anyone now and forever, unless they race in it, a even if they do they would rather be higher up. You are just jaded by yourself and have a huge sence of entitlement you stuck up little snob.

    I know an obscure track that I would like, the Pikes Peak Hill Climb (the WHOLE course). I will admit that it is local to me, but it is fun on the very few games that have it. Any new tracks would be good though!

      Colin Macrae DIRT the very first one, Pikes Peak in a Peugeot 405 T16 is awesome!!!!

    Spa and Pikes peak, RUF RGT-8 and Multi layered sound using exhaust, induction and engine note for that one car as a showcase for all future premium cars = My happy christmas!!

      Your happy xmas is Forza 4….. You’re not fooling anyone.

      Enjoy your rewind feature when you crash.

    And it is not a high speed style track. It has the esses, chicanes, fast straight, slow straights, tight bends fast bend, various degrees of banking

      TJC_69

      Still can’t find that ” Reply ” button huh ?………. /Facepalm
      Yes , just like High Speed Ring then !

      Amac500

      You continue to appaul me Manguesta36. You seriously say a track that doesn’t exsist anymore and Lime Rock should be in the game over big international tracks like Spa and Road Atlanta? There is literally 0 good reason to put one of your ideas in the game in any capacity. You want an unrealistic amount of things added and they are all little tiny obscure things that would make 0 sence compared to more ILMC tracks and Le Mans cars.

      TJC_69

      LOL Amac ! xD
      I think the only reason he wants it in the game is because he lives near there or likes golf courses or…… something ??
      Strange guy……..
      Who incidentally can’t find the reply button looool

      Forza 2 was the best one, FM3 and 4 will rob the sound department to feed the graphics department!.. that and it looks like a cartoon and feels like mush.

    Hey Kaz and PD! How about you fix the bug where hard tires wear out faster than medium and SOFT tires. That is a huge bug that you ignore!

    • September 4th, 2011 at 11:38 pm - #
      daics69

      you need to warm up hard tyres for a couple of laps before you can properly push. glitch? i don’t think so. don’t burn up your cold tyres and they’ll work fine

    • September 5th, 2011 at 7:38 am - #
      daics69

      the game doesn’t need to be fixed, your driving style does. and i don’t mean that in a bad way friend. peace

    Mangusta36

    Tj, you’ve got to be kidding me. Thompson was a technical course, unforunanately, there has not been a race on the road course since the late 70s. Thompson had three road course layouts. Two were connected to the oval, and third road course, the most challenging, very very technical track. It us next to the little t quarter midget track. You can the remnants on both golf courses, (both sides of the street)

      1. There is a reply button , located in azure blue over here —->
      2. Ring is King , there is no comparison to your High Speed Ring style track
      3. I hate golf

      :D

    I’d consider this seasonal with David Coulthard driving the merc to be features/content…….PD just create all this hype with statements that could have so many meanings. After 2 weeks off GT im getting back into it now although i cant actually define what the 2 recent updates have done as i havent noticed anything different.

    Well some of you guys keep saying that PD should fix the black screen problem, but its due to connection problems, not yours but others players can have problems and that affects the hole server,.

    and for the stuff coming soon i would like to see
    at least 2 or 3 more cars, or more RM for some cars new tuning parts, and ability to choose the rims you want from a aftermarket rim list like in gt4, also at least make some standard cars Premium/standard :)

    if you dont know what a premium/standard car is, check the r35 prototype nice HQ model from outside view but no interior. :) at least that.

    • September 5th, 2011 at 5:36 am - #

      There were 2 versions of the black screen before the update . The most common one was when your lobby started to fill up and you encountered players with different quality broadband and / or nat types. The race would often start for a few people but the rest would be stuck on the grid with the black screen causing even more issues as the black screen guys still had to finish the race….

      The other version of it would occur after disconnection from a lobby and on trying to rejoin the same lobby it just wouldn’t load in visual , audio always seemed to connect though.

      Haven’t seen these again since 1.12 but we will always have a slight issue with nat types as no server is perfect. I was in a championship lobby with a large group of people on patch release day and it was my best online GT5 experience to date , very smooth quality .

      I love the race mods , I have all 17. Wish there was more to race and collect.

      I have that car also , it’s kinda weird driving a premium without a cockpit view isn’t it ?

      :D

    scoop2004

    So Treyarch have released 3 SETS of new maps for black ops (along with patches to fix bugs etc) and PD have so far just given us new suits and helmets whilst fixing bugs (seasonal events dont count as updates since theyre just code)

    GIVE US SOME TRACKS PD, EVEN IF THEY ARE JUST PORTED GT4 ones!! And some new cars!! (or premium up some standard ones!!)

      And the award for the most silly comment goes to Blackex99, I am not a forza fanboy but you most certainly are a fanboy.. I’m glad that you’re content with the same old rehash. Most of us others aren’t.. and it’s because we love the series so much that we want it to evolve. So STFU.

  19. September 4th, 2011 at 7:25 am - #
    Magic Ayrton

    Here it is simply put.. No DLC Cars/tracks and better sound (induction for example (faceplam)) by Christmas then I am one of the first to stop buying GT games. I mean they are making fun of us. “Just give them some old rehashed rubbish to keep them sweet springs to mind, they seem to take two steps forward, 1 step back in this series.

    • September 4th, 2011 at 9:32 am - #

      Alot of GT5 fans feel this way Magic Ayrton , you are not alone in feeling that. I hope we do get some nice things added this month/next. Let’s wait & see :D

      @Magic no one cares you Forza fanboy. How are they making fun of us when everything they give us is free.You on here complaining like your even good at the game. Go troll somewhere else or buy Forza 4 and play with dollar store steering wheel.
