Hi Stephan - are you saying that the Asia region daily races are under poppulated now that Aus/NZ have left?
Pretty much so. I get like 10-11 players usually when I do that Daily Race and I'm not liking this at all.Hi Stephan - are you saying that the Asia region daily races are under poppulated now that Aus/NZ have left?

And that screenshot I posted was taken at around 11:30 am. Usually when races are held that time (before the split happened) it's full grid but now the split happened and that happened which is sad.
Two Daily Bs from my new Argentine account below. Look at the SR spreads and the connections. I thought the new regionalization was supposed to "improve the racing experience" ..

Did they put the server in Argentina? Or perhaps Antarctica? I have never seen green connections from Argentina, they were mostly red. At least it's improved for them! Mexico got screwed the most.
Maybe there's a 'glass half full' in all this?
PD seem determined to shoot themselves in the foot with blunder after blunder with Sport Mode. Weeklies not Dailies. Barely tolerable penalty systems, ever changing fault detection systems. Track limit nonsense.
Now this, fracturing an already diminished player base.
But there is a solution... We go back to what worked in GT6. Public open lobby system rooms, run by decent hosts, with protests heard by humans that can kick offenders, witnessed by fellow racers. And the upside? No region limits whatsoever...
I think I raced GT-5 on line and it was great ... i only remember Suzuka though. Way back then the internet speed was good, but ai actually connected with WiFi!! It had the odd bug though. I like a hotted up Lotus back then - lots of extra horsepower, lower weight and a big wing - and it wouldn't start properly - I'd be last at the first corner. But it was fast on the twisty bits and I'd end up fighting for the lead with a Nissan Skyline who had twice the power - it was fun. Didn't play GT6 much at all and not on line.I never played GT6 online, I didn't play anything online back then but that sounds ideal if they can make it work.
Does it still count as a win to your profile though?Well I just had to see it to actually believe it.
Yep 5:10 AM, just did a solo entry race B.
Which of course nets me zero dr for the win lol.
4 players in the race B sr:S race just then? Pffft
I guess at least it's a win for the folks who've always thought they'd never get the Schuey trophy...

I mean, that's not unlike lobbies I've seen. And those rooms include players around the globe.Saw this on Reddit
Before the split
And after
I must have had a better/shorter line to the server previously but with it now moved it's gotten better for you (I suppose??? ).What the...
Before the split I used to be bottomed out on parameter 1 with ping 250 ms but now I'm at max on that point with 18 ms, go figure?
On another note, didn't most Aussies used to get 4 green bars recept when I started playing 12 months ago or has my memory just gone to ka ka?
