Do you have to get all Golds in Licenses to get 100%?

[johnestmaximus]

I'm just curious how important doing well in the licenses is. Cause if they are important I'm screwed, I just got bronze in like all and dont really give a damn about trying to get gold.

No I don't believe you do. I don't care about the Golds either..

 

[NocturnalPS]

No you dont need to have all golds to get 100% i know cause im at 100% only good thing about getting all golds is you get a free car

 

[askebriso]

is it worth to get all golds? are the cars special?

 

[Concept]

actually, no you do not have to get all golds. i got all golds on all of them. but no you dont have to. also, yes it is worth it to get golds. you get a free car. and since you start off with 18.000 and then you get a FREE car you can put some engine upgrades or turbos on it.

 

[askebriso]

thats great to start with. and all golds looks good in my resumé

tonight I will do my best to get all golds....

 

[Pisa]

looks like impossible to get all golds

 

[askebriso]

darn, its impossible for such a lousy driver as myself to get golds in the special tests.

Ive tried for hours and one of my controllers had to pay for my mistakes with its "life"

Some of the times for golds seem impossible, but they aren't. Personally, I can't be bothered. I guess it helps to get all golds in the B license, because of the free car, but I preferred to buy a car and then get circuit knowledge and rack up the money that way.

I spent 3hrs on the 60m Wet Circle test last night, finally managed to scrape a bronze in it. You reckon I want to go through all that again just to get a poxy gold? I don't think so!

Maybe when I'm at 100% and I need more of a challenge, but for now, just having the license is enough for me.

PS: Anyone else think that the slalom test with the RUF was easier with the driver aids off?

First time I tried again after I got the Logitech wheel (I turned the assists off the moment I got it) I took about three seconds out of my time.

You could get a nice pendulum thing happening in time with the slalom.

I think trying to get the golds forces you to learn the fastest way to drive, going round the same corner or corners a good few times with a ghost car you really learn where to make up time. My lines have certainly improved. Gold on about half of them now - including Cote D'Azure on Super, after about 6 hours - half to go.

Now that I think about it ... it seems possible to beat the game without ever spending credits. You could get all golds on the A license test, then race some races, eventually build up to getting a faster "race car", get lucky and win an F1. Away you go, never spent a dime. It would be rather difficult to win some races without doing tune ups, but not impossible.

You could win the game without spending money, and sell only duplicate cars. You'd have a full garadge (one of each car) and all your money.

That would rock, but be very difficult.

yeah i realized that too!!!

hehe, i've been driving with the assists off since after the second week, and i have gotten used to it!!!

except, i still turn on TCS because it saves the tires to a certain extent.
