Sidenote: how are you guys getting those lovely victory screenshots onto GTP? I would like to gloat like you on these rare occasions ^.^
I linked my ps4 to a facebook account.
When I hit the share button and take screenshot just share to FB and then I use ps4 browser to copy paste the FB page straight into post.
Maybe not the best way, but nice and easy.

I put some decent laps into mount panorama quali this morning and got the Viper down to 2'12.6 and the F-type down to 2'11.6 I'm quite addicted now and reckon I can take a few more tenths!... will try the Audi next but the F-type is smooth as silk and I highly recommend anyone who hasn't tried it to give it a blast

Here's the lap I uploaded to my youtube channel in chase view to show I left no scratches on the Jag :D:tup:



Great track this :bowdown:

Road to 2.10 boys!
 
GT Sport now deleted from my console. A rank drivers are the dirtiest, nastiest racers i have ever come across. No manners and no care for anything except for their own points. If you play project cars 2 (that offers sim) see you online. Good luck for those doing nurb n24 next week, i wont be there. Gt sport caused me nothing but grief, anger, frustration, insanely amounts of laughs and of course people talk to me horrable after race chat so i do it back lol. If anyone wants my gt sport psn account let me know and i will send you the details. Profile can be checked at kudosprime. GT_Spec_Racer.

For those who dont like been overtaken or undertaken get a grip and learn how to race, kaz just lost a next top rank racer.

Wow great lap. And I’m stuck in the low 2:14’s my optimal is only 2:13.8.
When my delta is looking good over the top of the mountain i get excited and screw up the exit onto the conrod straight and lose it all again. There is no room for error here.

Gaming should be for fun. If GT Sport is causing you grief, anger and frustration then you are right to step away. I'm not sure you'll find PC2 online any cleaner but good luck to you anyway.

Don’t let it get to you mate. Just enjoy the game and ignore the abuse. Maybe take a break or play offline for a while. Be the bigger man and don’t respond to them.
If you have an incident in a race that isn’t your fault, or caused by someone on purpose don’t worry to much. It happens. Tomorrow is a new day.

Re-install, rise and even your DR rating and the field calms with you.

To bad. As I say when I pop into a race, be the racer you want to race. I have accepted that each race will be different based on loads of factors. And I just let it slide when someone shows up that lives a crappy life and has to compensate by letting others feel his pain..

And sometimes I just post a replay here and let the world know how tiny people there exists..

Good luck
 
You have sense about n24 and two laps beem to short. What pd are actually allowing is for the rammers and cheats to dash race which is why top rank is to full. One race per hour for n24 is needed. That would filter out the awlful racers as they would never keep up with us there.

Two laps is pretty annoying too with no stop attempts holding up traffic in the 2nd lap. Tire wear seems low though, I think it was 13x last time with chice of mediums, so maybe with 7x hard tires and 5x fuel no stop will be the default. Pit stop in a 2 lap race is stupid anyway. The one that doesn't stop gets the FL by default.

3 laps GR.3 is maybe too much for lower ranks, yet 3 laps GR.1 should fit. 2 laps GR.3 leaves just too little time to qualify in between. If you leave the lobby straight away you might make it or get interrupted in the final corner.

Back to the mountain, started on pole in the Mustang, first race in SR.24. A Huracan behind me stayed within drafting range for a bit, then fell back for an easy victory with 3 sec lead. I touched a wall once evading the Huracan, no clean bonus, still +9 SR to 33.

@Lancer_R It can be rough, especially A/S. Is PC2 online any better though? Screw ratings, they don't reflect your skill. The game can take your DR and SR away but you're still the same driver racing the way you want to race. I get more frustrated from the AI in racing games, bad programming is worse (cough cough penalty system) than natural stupidity :lol:

Second race, a Brazilian in a Megane bumps me off at the chase. I get a penalty for it, plus another car bumped me twice for SR Down, back to 23 SR. Penalty system hates clean racing.

It only happens when i get to a rank. Few local people where i live sent me nasty messages threatning me if i win them. They also have multiple profiles, i know as i sent my cousin to someones tuturial lessons, there are people on gt sport that need to be banned. I got police involved now anyway, deleted from console. Me and alot of people here even a cop have deleted the game. Project cars 2 ai only runs smooth on pc, ps4 is laggy, try it in boost mode for ps4 pro, give it few races and it settles down. Online its ok, its fairly quiet, most play career mode. As for assessto corsa competizone, upto yet only the ps4 could handle their ai etc, gt sport is only option for serious online play. Project cars you need to lower ai to about 48% and it slows it down and makes less mistakes. Most use 0% skill but thats not for me. Plus project cars gt4 gt3 cars are stable LOL. Dont forgot though, grid autosport is out september, thats one sim arcadish fun racing game everyone loves :) ps on bathurst project cars 2 gt3 cars will get stuck in the cork screw section, highly amusing. Turn skill down to 28% for bathurst get pole to start lol, it does eventually move though. Gt4 ai seems the best. The ginetta gt4 is overall the best too, without any settings its still a winner but its ginetta, of course its a winner :)
 
You called the Police?

Regarding messages from people as players, not the game itself lol. Sorry if i worded to make it sound that way. I have to go now, got alot to do need and view the g29 wheel, used one though.

If they sent you threatening messages on psn you can report them to Sony and they'll get banned. Reporting in game does nothing, but Sony does take it seriously.

I tried project cars, kinda sucks with a controller. Dirt Rally is fun, no one else on the track!
 
As photo shows the daily race error is back Plus the guy in p1, blocks you in to slow you down. Hate racing with it. Last race he went wide, i tried a overtake, he blocked me in and got the penalty luckily then he quit. Why i dont like been a rank, the skill level of arragance is disgusting in alot of a rank racers. No offense to the clean ones but after this week been in a rank has put me off sport mode and its awful poor skill. They swerve to block you in, let their pals past and claim the newer racer caused the crash. Full ghosting please polyphony just like GT6 to teach these non skilled drivers a lesson so we can drive through them and leave them for dust.
AGREE the racing in sport mode is at an all time low.. blocking ,dive bombing, causing contact then leave the track so you get the penalty, etc ,etc, etc
 
Some people just have no clue. 3 races in a row a drafting Lancer keeps bumping me from behind to create an opening and give me SR Down, He calls it fair racing. The penalty system gives him thumbs up. He better not be in the next race...

Next race, he's not there, I start second and get dive bombed by a Brazilian in a Megane. I get SR Down since he cut the corner before hitting me, makes sense. I drop to 8th in the sand, make it back to 5th with the fastest lap. SR.C is hell.

I checked the profile of that dirty Lancer driver, yep up down up down, nearly weekly resets. It looks like another ambitious driver that has given up on driving fair and now just bumps his way to victories using the penalty system to win.

Just when I thought it was getting cleaner, down to SR.A now. Mainly due to the penalty zone creating accidents. Last race a slow car swerves last second after he unghosts, I evade into the grass as only option, but the WRX doesn't like grass, veers back and I end up with a 2 sec penalty, which turns into 6 positions lost, over 4 sec lost in the next penalty zone. Those 6 create chaos, I pass a few only to get rammed from behind 3 times. -13 SR for one race.

The penalty zone at the chase is in a terrible spot. Every race it's chaos with traffic going at different speeds, gambling if they can still pass before the kink, or two penalty servers slowly driving side by side unghosting at any moment. Last week it was Goodwood where the penalty zone created chaos in the 2 high speed turns, before that Monza in the narrow bit otw to Ascari, and earlier Sarthe with 3 penalty zones so unbalanced that in one it takes double the time from you while in another it costs less than the penalty time to serve a penalty.

I'm starting to think it's not all that much better than what we had before.... Just different with new problems. One of which is people keep ramming and then quit when reaching the penalty zone as 'revenge' for ending up with a penalty. Just add it on at the finish, stop with the nonsense!

Next race, I know how the system works and why this happens but I still have to vent.

Another race ruined by an idiot that was never going to make that corner.

I was already slowed from all those flashing penalty cars in front of me running into each other, but mr hero diver behind me thought he could make the corner at top speed. Of course the penalty zone turns those 2 sec in 4 sec lost so he gets in front of me, reward for reckless driving. 70 SR left.

Lol down to SR.B now, from 70 to 40 in one race from endless bumping. Total chaos, that was not a race, full destruction derby round. And the one that started it, was the one that said let's have a clean race at the start... Always is. Time to walk the dog.

SR.C, and it's time to qualify. Impossible to race from the back at lower SR. Half the people stop to pick up hitch hikers along the way or to take a picture, wth. 24 SR left in 4 races lol.
How about adding it to your time at end of the race like you said or you have to do a drive thru in the pits as being the only way to get rid of ptly that may stop all the on track chaos.

Yep, I've been saying that for a year, and before penalty zones I always took penalties to the finish. Penalty zones have made races worse for me. Trying to drive clean from the back gets you in trouble at the penalty zone when all the 'naughty' people are getting send to the back, while driving from the front, you get send to the back after one unfair penalty.

Ugh, Mustang dive bomb in T2, I get SR Down again and end up in the wall. I got back to second with fastest lap yet this is getting tedious. It's pretty much impossible to get out of SR.C when one hit from behind or dive bomb means almost no SR for that race.

I think its about the points for people to get that ss rank lol. I deleted psn friends as they had multiple psns signed to one manufacturer, you just dont stand a chance. Got dirt 2 on the cheap anyway, very complex game to learn, i can see alot of practice will be needed to even get a win and thats good :) as i downloaded gt sport and delted it i wont be re downloading it, it would take hours lol. I set good lap times and others ruin, time they forced one profile per person and see if the blocking etc stops as sounds like other drivers are using other accounts to keep their place (just a wild theory but could be true)

ALSO I think when people get sent to back from the front via ptly zone it riles them up and they try to get back to the front at all costs aka known as dirty. I am starting to feel the way lancer is feeling getting sick of the win at all costs mentality or your not passing me mentality or i have to pass you no matter what mentality..

That's frustrating. With SR changes that steep it's really obvious that he's gaming the system. You'd think they'd have a basic algorithm to spot steep SR changes like that to issue temporary bans.

There is a video on youtube i used for ds4 pc2 settings, its dated october 2017. American guy done the set up.
 
Next race ruined by a Brazilian in a TT Cup. He got a penalty when he ground me into the wall in the cutting. That upset him so he started brake checking and ramming me, as well as another car that came up from behind until he had over 10 sec in penalties and quit at the penalty zone.... I finished 4th with fastest lap again, +4 SR, penalty system got it right, which made it worse :lol:

It's Friday, morning time, supposed to be cleanest time of the week....

A different Brazilian in a TT Cup...
uHtcPVK.gif

Cost me the race again, made it back to second after the penalty zone dumping me to 3rd, fastest lap again, but -3 SR from that. Stuck in SR.C hell.

@Lancer_R Can't blame you for giving up on GTS, the penalty system is a complete joke and gets abused more every week.

I have little faith it will be better next week on N24, here's my compilation from last December on N24

I'm still going to try to get a clean race bonus with all GR.3 cars, not sure if it's better from the back or front, SR.S or SR.E. I managed on Monza with over a 100 races, N24 might finally beat me with a mix of no stoppers, draft bumpers and penalty zones on a narrow track.

OK I am in the Megane so reserve your hate but I thought i raced well here, lots of really close quarters racing where i did not touch anyone and was nerfed twice as I attempted to pass.

Two incidents in this vid, admittedly both are risky places to pass but i get well alongside, hug the inside line and am turned into like i am not there.
