GT4 General Discussion and Questions

[Div is back]

Hey guys,

I just had Gt4 on friday and it's a blast.

My question is, I'm now at the end of the Professional Hall at the Gt World Championship,
I drive a Nissan 350Z Motul JGTC 500, tuned to 924 HP and I'm getting totally OWNED by the LeMans car, GtOne, R390, Bentley, Peugot, you get my point.

Now, what do I do? On the first race I got washed by 23 sec by the GtOne, any tips ?

Ok, how's this for not having any life whatsoever?

I was interested to see how slowly a crappy 1950s car would get around the Nurburgring. So, I took a Subaru 360, and with it's 15hp engine and 3 speed transmission, it lapped the Nurburgring in a blistering lap of 17'58.060

The Citroen 2CV in a race wasn't able to go up a crest, so it had to kick down in 1st gear at about 18 kmh to climb it, it didn't finish the lap.

Was this an AI controlled 2CV? Or was some poor sap driving it?

I'd try and get a LM race car. If you complete the last few missions in the mission hall, you'll get a Nissan R89, which should be able to compete with the other LM cars (especially if you tune it).

Save replay then go to the replay theatre and press select during the replay. I think thats roughly correct I've only seen my mate do it.

I see...im going to try that!! Thanks

Just wanted to point out your icon and how much it absolutely kicks ass...

I tried that, after like 10 attempts at the Corvette mission that failed, I gave up.

I was always at least 1 sec too slow. That sucks I can't continue on, I don't have 25% to do endurance races.

 

[Ev0]

Some of those mission hall races are total hell to beat. Just keep trying a couple of times a day, and you'll have it beat sooner than you think.

Give me some concrete pointers on the One Lap Magic missions..

Do some manufacturer races, get your 25% and then do some enduros.

ALSO, i have heard rumors that u can use xport to get pictures on ure pc and/or internet, is it true. Also, i have a digital camera, can i take the photos that are on the game and import them onto the camera somehow and then import the photos from the camera on to my computer ( i know how t import photos from the camera to the computer )

THANKS!!!!!

 

[Brokenparts]

i dunno..

i can get a pic from my digi camera of me doin 298 but the quality is bad.. its saved in my records but the fine print is too small to get the pic of it! am I the fastest gt4 guy on this forum??? lol

 

[sakara]

Yeah, I've plugged in a digital camera (with mem card) into the USB and it read it as a USB memory stick just fine. I then took out the memory card out of my kodak and brought it to work and printed off the pictures.
All good.

Question : Am i wrong or there is no Engine Blowing? (In japanese version, there is engine blow). I tried my GT-R 500hp in test course in the redline & it doesn't blow.

You need to do the licenses yourself to get the cars and your percentage complete. As for the Xport I've heared that it doesn't work, the sure way to do it is with a USB memory stick.

They were no engine blow whatsoever in the Asian version, Hyde confirmed it was just his imagination.

Have any of you tried the Silver Nissan GT-R Concept '01 yet? Wow, that car shifts fast. It has seven speeds, too. 👍

 

[Flash_AWD]

Is it me or is the Stage II RS3 Volkswagon one of the best bargains for less than 32,000... 500+hp...

 

[Sloth]

I wouldn't buy it.

Steer clear of anything that weighs over 1300kg.

Yeah, i tried, it's very fast!! The clutch must be very good.

Has anyone seen the new "Playstation 2" magazine with GT4 on the cover? I didn't get the chance to read it because everywhere it's sold out, but I heard it only got 88%. Does anyone have a link where I can read the full story?

 

[Dave A]

Are you mad, 1300Kg's is light, if thats your limit then your excluding yourself from cars like the Skylines, Subaru's, Evo's, Aston Martins (what a joy they are), Ruf's too, Jaguar XJ220, Mercedes SLR ect. Theres some top, top cars that weigh over 1300Kg's.

 

[Div is back]

The Sl65 AMG is the best exemple of a heavy car but that is SO fast!

 

[nitro_2005]

does anyone know what the peugeot 905 sounds like?
