Damned spell checker

Had a couple of busy days with the family still not had chance to nail my setup. I should still be able to make the race if it is tomorrow night.

I've been getting my racing fix with some F1 2010. Just getting my career up to the current round hehe. Sucks that online and offline physics are different for GT5. Any practice wouldn't do any good

 

[phil_75]

la sarthe replay anyone?

 

[Arkano5]

Replay of what? The race is tomorrow!

 

[phil_75]

A Bumper cam replay of a sub 3.48 lap so I can see where I'm losing time!

We sincerely regret that PlayStation Network and Qriocity services have been suspended, and we are working around the clock to bring them both back online. Our efforts to resolve this matter involve re-building our system to further strengthen our network infrastructure. Though this task is time-consuming, we decided it was worth the time necessary to provide the system with additional security.

We thank you for your patience to date and ask for a little more while we move towards completion of this project. We will continue to give you updates as they become available.

I guess it will take more time than expected

Unless we get a miracle, it looks like we'll be racing next week instead.

Looks like i'm not gonna be racing on Le Sarthe anymore... i wont be here next week.

Arkano, you can make the Epson NSX available now as I'll stick with the Takata Dome NSX for the season.

Good choice

Just done the nurburgring 4hr endurance and if I'm not mistaken the physics felt exactly the same as a high quality room online!

Must be tyre wear and fuel?

Gonna practice la sarthe in endurance if its there!

 

[MitchZ06]

Only the 24Hours for La Sarthe enduro....

You don't have to do it all, just few laps practice! lol

I think the enduro races are actually very similar to online physics, because they have tyre wear and fuel consumption, but the 'normal' A-Spec races are different for sure.

I have resorted to playing GT5 single player

At least I can gain some money..

Me too, I am close to an x2010 prototype if I can string 2 decent laps of suzuka together.

Bored, so heres a couple of good vids

Mark Blundell qualifying at la sarthe - Flying lap at 2.30 - Crazy Fast!

Qualifying at Suzuka onboard GT500, match that Arta NSX time if you can, why its so much quicker than the GT-R's I don't know (EDIT: Supersoft tyres I think), but I can get roughly exact same times with GT-R's on GT5, it amazes me how accurate GT5 is! Arta on this vid must be cheating with engine stage 3 lol

Nooooo!!! I've just realised I've gotta change all the track dates again due to PSN being down, dammit.

Any requests on what the final race should be? Personally, I don't really want Nurb' 24hrs as the last race, probably the penultimate race. So I'm more than happy to move the tracks around.

 

[gippone]

personally I like very much the real tracks in GT5

Suzuka Circuit
Fuji Speedway
Road Course - Daytona
Circuit de la Sarthe 2005
Nurburgring GP/F
Road Course - Indy
Autodromo Nazionale Monza
Laguna Seca Raceway
Circuit de la Sarthe 2009
Nurburgring 24h

maybe you can put as final race one of the Road Course, Indy or Daytona

You can also finish by le mans, so you only have to change 1 date...
So keep on timetable, next week laguna seca

I wanted to add Daytona/Indy in the first place, but I ended up veto'ing them both to only have 10 tracks. I guess I'll add in an extra race after Nurb' 24hrs?

You want to do two enduro's right after each other? This week is Le Sarthe, I haven't done all that practice for nothing!

I know you are waiting for additional information on when PlayStation Network and Qriocity services will be online. Unfortunately, I don’t have an update or timeframe to share at this point in time. As we previously noted, this is a time intensive process and we’re working to get them back online quickly. Will keep you updated with information as it becomes available. We once again thank you for your patience.


Arkano maybe I suggest to wait that this problem is solved to change the race dates 💡

ok

You know something about the fanatec steering wheels? i read few articles about and they seem very good. Just i don't know somebody who has one...

 

[adamp93]

You could swap the 2 Nurburgrings and put Le Mans at the end, or just put everything back a week, or two, or however long it takes to fix the network.

Andy had one, although he never used it apparently

They're very good wheels, better than the DFGT for sure. And the clubsport pedals are the best you can get.

I've got the fanatec turbo s (I use it with the xbox aswell) had it for about a year it's great, never had any problems with it apart from the standard pedals they seem to keep breaking..... Got the clubsport pedals a couple of weeks ago and they just finish the package off they feel fantastic still trying to get use to the brake pedal but they are so much better than the standard pedals it's untrue...
