Pd or kaz said that doing that thing will make the game faster , ok thats worked for me i noticed that BUT there a small thing i made up and i dont know why it makes feel good

the installing thing i do it every few weeks and i dont know if thats help
but i do it any way

what i want to know is it REALLY help to make the game faster ???

note : i'm doing right know ^_^
 
You re-install every few weeks?

I installed the game after a few days of playing and it did improve the loading times for me.

I don't understand why it would need to be done more than once, do you know something I don't about this matter?

I was thinking about it without installing it you see a small icon " installing " or something ok ?


soo when you buy a car or finished an event or anything else you did a new thing and changed few things in the game soo when i install it again i think it help the game getting faster ( in my mind ) .

i think this sound wierd
 
I think that installing message means that the HDD is being accessed in a similar way to the save message, like a loading message in other games. I could be wrong but this is what I thought that message meant.
 
I'm sorry that I did it. Took me five months to do it. I think it actually slows down the game. I think it actually adds more glitches. I've experience things like hang ups since I installed it. Installed because I was hosting races and thought it might help. Bad decision!
 
Not installing the game is supposedly faster, but it apparently hurts your PS3 more, and that hurts much more in the long run, doesn't it? :D

Besides which, I've had my data installed since November 24th on release day and I've had no real major problems with the game.
 
GT5 Has 3 Loading systems.

  1. Perminant installed data with extra installs of commonly used data as it goes. After all the commonly used data is installed you wont see installing text untill you go to a uncommon event it then uses.........
  2. Tempary installed swap disk data per session.
  3. BD only data.

With perminant data the game only loads that data from the HDD.

With Tempary installed swap disk data, it installs the data needed to the HDD for the races and Menus, per session, This means the BD is not used during the RACE.

IF you don't pre install the PS3 has to install All the race data in to the swap HDD storage area, This takes longer per race loading, With tempary data storage, the BD is not accessed during the hole race.

If you don't pre install and don't allow the swap disk function as you turned them off in options, only basic & patch data is installed on HDD and the BD is used constantly on menus and is perminantly active during races.

People who do online alot want BD access combined with HDD patch data as its faster (online is not on the BD after all). If you pre install the BD is not used as much and the HDD has to load all the Patch and normal race data buy itself.

Because there has been so much extra data patched, the performance of HDD loading all of it has passed a point where BD+HDD loading is now faster on SOME systems. Slims BD drive has got cheaper more nosie and slower access time as more models get released.
