If need be, I will stop racing because I don't want to have people angry at me.


Hopefully it doesn't come to that, we'll try what we can to see if there's any improvement and hope the problem doesn't arise again. 👍 If it happens again we can try going without mics but I find the chatter to be enjoyable and also feel that being able to give voice commands is very important so hopefully we don't have to go that route. Out of curiosity, do you know what "room quality" the other rooms are set for? I forget what ours is set at, somewhere around the upper-middle but not the highest. Do you normally run in private lounges or public rooms?

It varies. Usually the race quality is set on standard. Mics are disabled. I don't want to ask you guys to change the world for me :lol: I did forget to clear my cache before I raced at HSR. I bet that will fix 99.99% of lag issues I have.
 
Cnd, we only get mad if someone turns 180 and starts ramming into us mid race. ;) we really want to make this work.

These problems are more related to GT5 and it's servers. So we will focus on getting all we can from that and hope it solves the issue.
 
Man, I haven't had this many post-race PM's since Kamikaze was racing with us! :lol:

That guy was my favorite person in the world, everything he would say would make me die laughing

HAHA! I remember that guy... He would say the most random, off the wall things on the mic. :lol:

Or hell, S1/2 of Capps in general! I know I was getting complained about more often than not.

..........as he was bouncing off walls and crashing into people! :dopey:
 
dsgerbc
At least he wasn't leaving his mic on while doing random stuff around the house. :lol::lol::lol:

:nervous:

I don't think I've ever done that... Have I? :lol:

I hear a lot of random noises from your mic too, there have been several times where I thought a parakeet was being repeatedly tortured somewhere in your house. :confused:


:nervous:

I don't think I've ever done that... Have I? :lol:

I don't think so, I didn't even know you had a mic until recently and it's rarely on. I'm pretty sure he was talking about somebody else who is cohorts with Kami, who used to set the mic down right by the radio speaker when he would get up to do something, or recently took a phone call while his mic was still on. :crazy: :lol:


EDIT:
It was a cheap swipe at Lancer, lol.

Yeah, that's what I thought. :lol:

Yeah... I bought one and rarely use it. It's a turtle beach, same model as yours I believe... Not the easiest to turn off and on in a hurry. I leave it off most of the time (especially during races) so that I don't spew profanity all over the lounge. :crazy:
 
You might've, but I'm unaware of it. It was a cheap swipe at Lancer, lol.

That might not always be me. My PS3's right in the middle of our main floor, and my mic's pretty sensitive.
 
It has been a long day, so I haven't been able to keep up here as much as usual.

I will start by apologising to those who were effected by any lag that I may have transmitted during the race.

Also, I feel I owe apology to a few of you whom had your race outcome affected by my driving in the latter part of the race. It was not my intention to provide any advantage to any particular driver, however regardless of intent; I am sorry for the effects.

One last mention I would like to make is a tip of my hat to Ace. For a few laps in the early part of the race Ace it was a pleasure to drive next to you until we were recalled to the pack.
 
Thanks Marcus, I appreciate that. I'm not in front that often. It was fun racing with you and the others for the lead. I didn't see you lag at all when we were up front in my part.... but I lost you for awhile so not sure what happened to you.... my tires wear was my problem towards the end. Looking forward to the next race. Better luck next time.

Good man Marcus, I think we all knew it was a bit uncharacteristic of you though. 👍

In other news, I'll be attending my second AutoX this weekend and after learning the ropes a couple weekends ago I'm hoping to show what the old Subie is capable of! :dopey: I will be sure to share any fun videos or pics......like this one from the last event!

I did not experience any lag issues myself, but sometimes the person lagging does not see any lag, and some may see lag that others on screen cannot. I know DSG was having difficulty even seeing me on track in the past.

While my apology does not change the results; I will not let it happen again.

While there might have been outside influences; I hold myself responsible and I have no excuses.

Good Luck this weekend. I'll be out on Sunday.

That was after I changed my router, but before I bothered to set-up proper port forwarding. So, I'd say, port forwarding is a must, not matter if cache is cleared or not.
 
Another option is to put your PS3 in DMZ mode if you understand the risk. It results in a Nat Type 1 wireless connection for me.
 
Just a reminder about tonight's race, the starting time has been moved 30 minutes earlier than last season. The lounge will open around 8:30pm EDT for practice and qualifying will start at 9:30pm EDT. Hope to see a good crowd tonight, Tuesday's race was quite exciting!

:cheers:
 
Hoping to be there, but it might be difficult for me.
 
I will be racing, I'll be using the old DS3 this time sadly.

Guys......I think we might actually have a chance tonight!!! :dopey:




:lol:




Wheel/table malfunctioning?
 
DS3.... It's what I use :ouch:


:lol:
 
Wheel/table malfunctioning?

:lol:
Nope, it's to loud at night...
The DS3 isn't bad at all, the wheel is just more fun and about .05 faster.

I'll miss our old 10pm qualifying time. ;)

Hope you do make it. It's always better with Nige on track. :)
 
I will probably stop in for a spell, but it is unlikely that I'll have time for the race unless I get a lot done on the racecar early.
 
The Champ lounge is open for pre-race practice qualifying will begin at 9:30 EDT. Draft will be on for qualifying be please try to allow room and don't draft your way to pole.
