Only by people with a thorough grasp of english.
I raced extensively in GT5 online and even moreso during the hybrid era. Never once encountered an unrealistic hybrid in a circuit racing room. Much like the swine flu, bird flu, climate change, etc....the fear of hybriding is 99%hysteria/1%common sense.

The fear of cheating probably was a bit over the top. But I hanged around a lot in free run lobbies in GT5 and they were very frequent there. And all over the place :P
 
The only thing I don't like about modding is the fact that people could be simply running hacked downforce values and nothing else within seasonal events, so as not to raise red flags by going 600mph. I'm pretty sure that is possible. It begins to take the fun out of seasonals and I don't even feel like spending time to get into the top 100 as I have in the past. There are various replays that I've watched, which look sketchy. They may not have the top time, but in the top ten obviously to be able to watch their lap. I recall someone in the Madrid f3 trial who had a lap filled with mistakes and got air over a kerb coming out of turn three (the first hairpin), did so-so for the rest, got air coming out of the last partial rotary/horseshoe over the kerb on the right...but he pulled this insane right to left through the last chicane. It was bizarre. Extremely. No one was able to get through there that fast. He easily kept it in third, didn't touch a kerb and blew out onto the front straight. It just changed direction way to quickly without losing any grip.

Those are the ones that I question. A mediocre lap, but a massive benefit at a few points on the circuit that are obvious. And those points are always straights or low speed sections where downforce barely contributes. Would be different if i was all "rah that's impossible, I could never do that!", because that's on me...it's the fact that no one was able to get through that part of the track in the manner that anyone else could. If someone like immortal was able to get through the last chicane as fast as this guy did, he would have been in the 21s. And if he was already in the 21s (can't remember as I know they got into 22s), he'd have been in the low 21s. Idk his screen name and i wouldn't mention it anyways as I know that violates the AUP, but he was Italian. I remember that much.

Using an expression in the same context as to what this thread is about, is not the best idea and was taken as an "example"...

Next time, choose a better one.

So... basically you're blaming me for your own fault of misinterpretation. Okay.

More like you not being able to understand what you said yourself.

Besides the fact of whether there are good modders or not, all modders are breaking the rules of the game
  • You may not use, make, or distribute unauthorized software or hardware, including Non-Licensed Peripherals and cheat code software or devices that circumvent any security features or limitations included on any software or devices, in conjunction with SEN, or take or use any data from SEN to design, develop or update such unauthorized software or hardware.

Do i think sometimes they are cool, heck yeah. Should they do it? No, time will allow PD to do it. Whether PD does it or not is up to them.. PD is not binding anyone in anyway to stick with them until you get what you want. You are free to leave whenever you want.

What a clever rebuttal! We're not 10 so please explain yourself as I have.

I never said I wanted mods or anything. While this is relevant to the topic, it isn't to this little argument.

Probably is a bogus lap by the sounds of it. Downforce was part of the PP calculation in GT5 even with hybrids. Its the big elephant in the room this time around, undetectable unless you analyze a replay. Unfortunate.
 
I am not sure how long it is going to take the modern to ruined gt6 because I don't think about them most of the time. I drove Few Hacked Cars In gt5 from one of my psn friends and it was hard to launch it off the line but it accelerate faster then the speed of sound. So, hackers doesn't bother me.
 
Seriously?

This shouldn't have to be said, but GTPlanet's policy on this has not changed; it is unacceptable to post a how-to video here. There's the entire internet out there; go elsewhere if you're looking to deal with hybrid/mod things. Post deleted.
 
Depends on your definition. If the mere existence of hacked cars qualifies--you're out of luck. If you're anywhere near the top of the leaderboards on Super Lap events, only to have one or more hacked car take the top slot(s)--you're out of luck. If you frequent restrictionless lobbies at Route X (just guessing here) and expect to see only cars modified within the confines of the game--you're out of luck. If you're like me and partake in clean racing of low PP cars on low grade tire compounds where you've never seen a hacked car...
 
A few people have already used modded cars in the seasonals, so I'd say its already happened.
