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 reported a guy named childMolestir and sony msgd me that they got the report but never msgd me that they did anything about it. They seem to care more about messages as they actually take care of the issue within a day usually.

PSA: if you join my cruise lobbies with a jabroni name like that its an insta kick and report. That **** isnt funny.

Finally made it under 2:01! Obviously it came much easier to other people, as I really had to put in a lot of work to get it. I wouldn't mind being critiqued about how to do it faster. But don't bother mentioning trail braking or throttle control, since I'm still using the X & [] buttons. Also, don't worry about the route I took after the final turn. That's just how I drive. 👍

Tried to race this morning. But had an issue with my wheel. It wasn't letting me turn the TCS up/down with the dial. No issue while practicing only when I entered the race. Shut down, I'll try again later.

Good job on the time. Very jealous.

There is a video on youtube i used for ds4 pc2 settings, its dated october 2017. American guy done the set up.

Then please post a link if possible. I‘d like to play PC2 more often in a serious way than just running private tests for the joy of driving an LMP2 or Group 5 Monster. Unfortunately for me it seems the idea behind PC2 is that of a puzzle game where you got to find the best controller settings. And I‘m still stuck at Level 1.

Is it a g29? Cause the dial sucks donkey dongs imo, mine worked half the time for mfd. A few weeks ago I switched my mfd controls to the l3 r3 for left and right with plus minus for up and down. Wayy better.

Yeah G29. First time it's done this. Probably just needs a re-boot.

Last night was cancelled because of psn network..
Tonight had the enrgy to try better qualy time for race C.
I think that it went quite well.
Not many mistakes, and over all smooth drive.

I too have an ongoing history of being punted off by Brazilians.

Yeah there is a striking pattern but apparently we cannot talk about it (or at least I can't ). There seems to be a dogmatic reluctancy to countenance such supposition. Perhaps in a couple of decades the politically correct web of silence will be a thing of the past.

I will send you the video link as my project cars save reset when i changed psn. Probably be tomorrow when i get around to it. What i do know from pc2 players is that the only decent wheel to use is the logitech g29 and they have a g29 online competition coming up. Am skint so i cant buy one and used ones look a mess. Project cars three is also going to adapt pd way of adding fun into handling, pc2 is aimed for wheel racers and full on sim and tuners, youd be suprised how many people are in career mode offline and they mostly use the g29. Very little use controllers. You can also go to leaderboards and it shows images of controller used either a wheel or ds4. Send friend requests to controller users too and ask them for their settings, they got same ones i use to use. We use to photo and send settings via psn message then gt sport came out and assetto corsa stream and lost touch with alot fellow racers. Word of advice is dont buy the tgt if your not staying with gt sport, it has calibration issues in other games and its not predicatable. It can ffb to much and pull side to side.

Just see next week combo . I called my Psy i need to consult

I reported someone been called juicyboyplums and got message back saying nothing wrong. Then i reported someone saying something bad and i was warned to stop reporting people lol. I rang sony they said they will send it back to moderators to look into further, two weeks later still no reply. Another called hitmeuptops i dont class that as good name, its more a dating app term from grindr or somewhere. I swore back to person who swore at me and he reported me and i reported him, i got warning so sent sony photo of him saying it first and they said nothing lol. Like sony and pd are on top ranks side and top ranks side only.

 

[sturk0167]

If it's broken, I'll send you mine. 👍

 

[CrimsonKing]

Next week's races are up

A: N300 - Tokyo Central Outer Loop - 5 laps - Grid start with False start check so most likely one make
B: Gr.4 - Suzuka - 4 laps
C: Gr.3 - Nurburgring 24h - 2 laps - x5 fuel, x7 tyres (RH)

Race C was expected with the actual race next weekend, but the other 2 tracks have been used relatively recently so will feel repetitive

Congratulations PD for making me hate Suzuka. Can't say the same about Fiji because I always hated it but Suzuka was one of my favorite tracks in every racing game.

Yeah I took my time today, rushed it before and moved on quickly lol. Nice improvement on your time. My advice, turn off tc, and you can apex the turns on the last sector more. Also, if you are blipping the throttle on the turns, means you can brake later

Unless there's an expletive in the username, you won't see any results from that. I don't think we need any more examples, thanks.

Then i reported someone saying something bad and i was warned to stop reporting people lol. I rang sony they said they will send it back to moderators to look into further, two weeks later still no reply.

If you send too many reports in too short a period, you will get a warning. It's stated on the screen where you send the report...

I swore back to person who swore at me and he reported me and i reported him, i got warning so sent sony photo of him saying it first and they said nothing lol.

You can't possibly have a complaint about getting a warning for swearing at someone. It's very definitely part of the community rules, and you admit to doing it, so quite clearly you should get a warning for it.

It's important to read and understand the rules of any community you join, because you make an agreement to follow those rules when you do so. For example, here are ours, which you - like all other members - accepted and agreed to follow before you were able to create and register your account:

Probably not going to run it again so have at it.

 

[O604]

Rebooted my wheel and did 1 Race A. QT 2:02.731. Got me P5. Finished 4th.

Having a pretty good week at Fuji short. No wins but been lucky and haven't been knocked off track once this week.

 

[sturk0167]

Yeah, I'm done, too. I just wanted to hit my goal of under 2:01. I'm sick of qualifying, so I'm just gonna do some races, now. 👍

Thanks, Pokey

 

[Scotchboy]

Trying Race C again, this time in the GT-R. Could only quali 1:45.7 dead, good enough for 15th on the grid. Pretty standard race, worked my way up to 7th, then a Spanish guy in an RC-F decided to shove me off on a corner on Lap 10. He got a 3s penalty, but when I caught up again he dived across the straight into my side to push me off again, and I got a 2s penalty because he then put himself into the wall on the rebound. Of course I lost SR overall for this and finished 9th. My SR that I managed to recover a little after last night's ****storm went 79>72, and only had a couple of SR downs early in the race due to positioning relative to others in corners, all the rest were greens. I don't get why they match DR/SR B/A people with D/A people? Are there that few people in the whole of Europe and Africa online mid-evening?

Edit** Race 2, same car etc same kinda opponents. Somehow SR went 72>70 despite 0 penalties and almost no contact the whole race..? Everyone around me was getting penalties and hitting each other and hitting me and through it all I got SR greens. I don't understand how this works anymore. I'm racing as cleanly as I possibly can, but everyone else isn't, and short of sitting at the back for 11 laps and murdering my DR I'm not sure what to do. Several who got 2, 3, and 5s penalties got a blue A or S at the end and I got a red A with none of that mess.

Edit 2** Well this is the second day in a row of utter ****. DR 70>60 and a loss of 700 DR in that one race. Started in 16th, cleanly worked up to 4th. Was overtaking the GT-R in 3rd, who decided to swing wildly to the side and push me off into a spin. Fell to 15th. Lap 10, had worked back up to 9th, braked in a normal place for a corner, car behind slammed into the back of me and I got handed a 3s penalty. Somehow kept 10th, until the last corner of the last lap. The 2 in front of me decided to collect each other and I couldn't avoid them so got one wheel on the grass, instant spin. Finished 14th. This week has been the absolute worst. Being stuck in horrible awful SR B again is worse than killing myself. I hate SR B. Nobody in SR B can drive in my experience.

 

[Lancer_R]

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

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

A different Brazilian in a TT Cup...

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.

I remember last n24 well. Most admitted at the end they were drunk, i wondered why i beat a full track of a plus and ss lol. Cant beleive how fast time has gone since the last it was on. I got family visiting soon and they play gt league, i hope they dont want me to download it, i got full series of all the new series of all ncis programs, i need the data for streaming this weekend lol

 

[BjoBosUndies]

Alsace | Gr. 2 NSX | 1:42.636 | DS4 & Auto.

Still at least 3/10ths to shave off.

 

[O604]

If it's broken, I'll send you mine. 👍

We will get you on that wheel someday, somehow. You won't see it coming.

It was actually last on in March, I didn't bother to make a compilation of that one as nothing changed. It's easy for me to find when it was on since I always qualify for N24 and Nordschleife at the end of the week to get to A+ for a day

I dont remember it been on in march, i play different games or am watching ncis. Think back in march i had people over at mine and they raided my ps4 and made accounts. Day after that the disk drive broke on it. Fell out with them anyway as sensed something was wrong when they went.

 

[Dairyworker]

No time the last two days.... hope to get home earlier than the wife tonight to get a crack at a sub 2.01.000 on Fuji. I might do some races, but i don't feel confident enough in my knowledge of how to get around that track to not feel like i am in the way.... lol

 

[Mistah_MCA]

Did KudosPrime add a few more races for Daily Races after next week??? This is what I'm seeing:

A - Tsukuba w/ N100 - 7 laps
B - Interlagos w/ Gr. 3 - 5 laps
C - Circuit de la Sarthe w/ Gr. 1 - 5 laps
-

Also wanted to say: I'm doing a 2.4 Hours of Le Mans event this Sunday at 5PM PST (Lobby will open at 4PM PST) with Gr. 1, 3, and 4 cars. I have the information here, and you can reply there if you want to join (Just let me know your PSN and which class you want).

 

[sturk0167]

I've started on pole at Fuji 6 times, and been knocked off the track at the first turn 3 or 4 times. It's normally because of the 3rd or 4th place guy braking too late and creating a domino effect. Haven't figured out the best way to defend for turn 1, lap one yet. Gonna try some new strategies. Might be better off staying wide left to let the crashes happen. 💡

That's what I've done. Usually 2nd place is near me on the right, so I go slightly wide (left) on Lap 1 T1 and then start to defend the inside line for the next turn.

 

[sturk0167]

I just got called out for cheating, because of the way I take the last corner at Fuji. He rattled off some crap about how you can't do that in real racing. Oh god, where do I begin? First off, I can't stand people holding what we do in this game to the standards of actual auto racing with real drivers in real cars, in really dangerous situations.

Secondly, the track limits are where the penalties start. Am I actually alone in this thinking? Why should I give a damn what the rules are in any racing series that I'm not participating in? Makes no sense.

Thirdly, I present to you exhibit A:


How many penalties would these guys have had if they were in a GT Sport race?
Sorry. That was a bit of a rant.
