After trying a couple of WTC races now I think I’ve concluded that these are the worst balanced ones in the entire game. It’s a complete lottery what kind of race you will end up with and you won’t know if your car is good enough until you’ve wasted like 7 laps. One race you take the lead within 5 laps and the next you can barely even catch up to the top 3 cars.

Ugh, I really hate these races. I’ve put the difficulty on easy now just to get rid of them asap.

This is a good thing IMO. Variety is good.

I don't know how late I'm to the party, but only today I learned that if you disable all the racing info, you can't select tires or fuel when you pit

That's immersion, do you have a floating menu in real life? no. Just turn on your mic and shout at your pit crew "HEAR ME OUT I NEED NEW TYRES"

side note: this feature will come in a future update
2nd side note: what a terrible joke lol

I don't know if it's just me, but when I have GT7 going on one screen and my PC going on the other watching videos or live streams, the PS4/GT7 seem to hog all of the bandwidth and the videos buffer a lot or refuse to play in 1080p.

Can someone help?

I’ve just purchased the Jaguar XJR-9, Mazda 787B and the Nissan R92CP from the Legendary Cars Dealership but somehow I didn’t unlock the trophy for buying three Le Mans cars? Any help with this?

P.S. I also have the CLK-LM and F1 GTR for good measure too

Trying to tame the R8 LMS has once again convinced me that it’s one of the worst handling cars in GT history. It’s such a bizarre car to drive as it doesn’t seem to have any grip in any kind of situation. It’s the only GT3 car that can just start to slide while going through a fairly easy high speed corner. It’s like the back tires are made of ice blocks and the front is the only thing dragging it forward.

If anyone can link to a good tune I’d be much thankful.

"Three Legendary Cars" Trophy

FWIW the German text of the trophy clearly states "Obtained three legendary race cars that once won a 24-hour race". With that said I now definitely have more than three cars from the Hagerty dealer that fit this requirement...oh well, time will tell. The people who actually aim to get the...

I absolutely hate every second I spend in it.

The lambo feels similar, which would make sense I suppose. The R8 was tuned and made pretty driveable for the Daytona race c a few weeks back. The defaults for so many of these cars is so bad.

The description of the trophy don't say anything like buy 3 lemans cars. Say "buy 3 cars made to win 24h races"
 
God I hate endurance racing in this one. No pre-race weather info, clouds that form within seconds, the idiotic rolling starts, no pre-race strategy menu and a cumbersome UI with constant scrolling to get basic information. I don’t think I’ve ever encountered a racing game that is so hellbent on creating racing scenarios but half-asses everything vital surrounding it. It’s like baking the most wonderful looking cake but when you cut into it there’s ketchup pooring out.

I don't know it that's gonna help as i haven't try it but weirdly there is a rear wing and diffuser option for the R8 LMS! Maybe try this to see if it makes a difference!
 
Think I've found out the cause of my earlier issue with not connecting to servers. EE in the UK seem to have a very specific issue that's affecting certain online games, Amazon prime and Alexa devices. Thanks to PDs stupid online only requirement, I can't play until EE fix whatever issue is plaguing the UK.

So if you're in the UK with EE broadband and you can't get on, it's not just you.
 
Are you like me a bit disapointed by the carrera GT sound ?

It doesn’t match the real one.

I think it’s pretty close especially when you watch it from outside replay.. The real one still has that lovely unique sounds once you get high in those rpm’s that the game can’t get 100% but it’s still good to me.

It was out for me around the same time last night. I really don't like these online-only games. Really! 😡

Wait, so you’re saying you don’t like grandma’s upside-down ketchup surprise cake? Would it be better if it were fancy catsup instead?
