There are game studios/publishers that give the gamer an avenue to address problems such as this using Twitter, e-mail and even 800 numbers.

I have no idea why PD doesn't do this, but I'm getting pretty tired of seeing videos of rock-star Kaz racing and going to car shows all over the globe instead of getting this game working.

Kaz, you're not a rock-star, you're a game developer, now finish the game you've been working on forever.

Kaz: Just wait for GT6!! It's going to be awesome! :sly:
 
Plugged up my DFGT for the first time in about a month. Joined a 500pp lobby. LFA , NSX, NSX, 86 GT, 86 GT, Civic. Signed out of my GT5 account and played Skyrim.
 
Any action tonight?
 
I will on in a few myself...
 
Created room:

1472-6399-8880-6896-4089
 
watching the new Top Gear, then i might hop on if i'm feeling inspired :D
 
Anyone racing tonight?
 
I got the fastest internet time warner offers in my area, 30down/5up but now my PS3 won't stay logged into PSN :yuck:
 
Aside from the Lemons series and maybe some impromptu racing, I think i'm going to stay offline until the next update. Whether it's PSN or PD, the system is seriously ****ed.
 
It must be how it is interacting with certain setups. I personally haven't had any problems.

Well, haven't had any more problems than usual.

I hope to be online tonight for anyone that wants to. I really wouldn't mind a theme if anyone has something they want to do. We could do FF hatches, or wagons, or sedans. I really wouldn't mind doing something like Grand Tourers or V8 Coupés (though at 500 to 550 PP), or 2 Liters, or Nissan only, or 90s JDM.

Ehh I'll be online, I just won't plan my evening around it working. I might create a new account and work my way through a-spec again.
 
Any interest in Grand Tourers: 600 HP, 1600 Kg, SM or SS tires. Should it be limited to FR, or are MR and AWD okay?

It is probably a bit much, but there are such big beautiful cars and I'd like to drive them.
 
Fwiw I liked the muscle-car no abs enduro last week.

Too bad everything sucks now.

GT5 froze on me the other day. I went in to check on which stage engine tuning my lemon beetle had. Go to shut off GT5, it hangs and then about 5 seconds later, takes down my PS3.
 
hmm.. grand touring races seem fun, actually. I have a good deal of cars ready to run this. Maserati, Aston, Jaguar, etc.

GTs are like muscle cars, but with real suspensions. You might be able to take a Camaro or a Corvette if you want.

I am not a big fan of the whole ironman-no-ABS thing. I suck, why make that more obvious. I also don't mind allowing TCS. I suck, but the two times I've tested, I'm faster without it. Why should I mind if someone else uses it. Hopefully it keeps them from crashing. Possibly into me.

PS: I'll start a room in a few.

PPS: 600 HP might be a bit much. If you want, I can cut that back a bit. It will mean the 599 needs to run a limiter.

That was a reply to Huyler. I already knew what a GT is.

Havent raced with this group in a while. Joining soon.
 
That was fun.

Maybe because we all had different cars to run. Different than the norm.
 
not used to fast cars with slippery tires!
 
That was fun. That was intense. Lots of very pretty cars, that sounded very nice.

We had a couple pubbers come into the room, but they never entered the course. I think they simply didn't have any cars that heavy.

After I left the room, I dropped the extra 80 Kg from my V12 Vantage. With 602 HP and 1600 Kg:

Ferrari 599 '06 is 542 PP.
Aston Martin DB9 Coupé '06 is 552 PP.
Aston Martin V12 Vantage '10 is 549 PP.

No idea if using HP/Weight is better than using PP. I didn't really do a lot of side-by-side comparison. I did think the 599 was easier to drive. The DB9 did fly, but for some reason I liked the Vantage better. Maybe because I had to put an exhaust kit on it and it sounded fantastic. Maybe because the brakes were better.

There were other cars that I wanted to build out, but I didn't want to spend all evening doing that. I'll have to do that for next time.

I usually run a lot of different ranges of power/weight and Grand Touring cars are definitely up there in fun-factor. If feels great throwing the weight around the corners.

Were you having problems last night connecting? We saw you enter the room once, but never saw you get on track?

I will definitely have to do that again.
 
I'm up for racing again tonight. What's the car criteria?
