Is it still possible to Hybrid even with the 2.14 update? I see a lot of people talking about driving hybrid cars in singleplayer. Or are they all on an earlier update? I'm confused.
 
Yes it's still possible, Most people drive the hybrids in the cruise lobby's to showcase on what's possible. My guess is they don't like using them for easy online wins so they race offline. Hope this helps :)
 
using them for easy online wins

What? thats the reason why they exist in the first place and are so popular.

No one who ever frequently won races, sat down and said "Man, I need to find a way to make my car faster than everyone else"

From what I've seen (in drag race rooms) there has been no change at all in the amounts of Hybrids, and the absolute ridiculousness of them, since the update

Still haven't grasped the concept of hybrids have you? You are beginning to sound very childish with your hurtful remarks towards the hybriding community.

Quit acting like there is some profound experience to Hybriding that I'm missing

Is it novel in some way to put a corvette engine in a honda Beat? yeah its hilarious and funny and I get it

But unfortunately for YOU, it didnt stop there. And people like ME have to deal with these "people" on a daily basis. Just a few days ago in a 600pp online race some idiot had a 155 touring car with about 7 billion horsepower and we had to drop out of the race to kick him

And those are just the ones we know are cheating

The problem here is YOU still havent grasped that Hybrids perpetually destroy GT5's online community for the people who cherish it. So please, stop trying to defend your brethren, your hands are all bright red
 
^^ What's the best way of dealing with mega power cars? HP limit or tyre wear. And don't exaggerate the Hp figure to make a point. My Alfa 155 TC sits a 570pp with only 511Hp. 550 to 600hp will more than likely get it to 600pp. Second of all the high and mighty attitude won't get you bonus points. I personal like hybrids for what they can be, an improvement on what PD gave us or a one of a kind cruiser/dragster/Drifter built to the owners specifications. I agree the uber power cars need to go and spoon a belt sander, but it taking out on people who only do Realistic Hybrids isn't the way of doing it.

Very well said my friend, I couldn't agree more. Some people just have to act all high and mighty just because they choose not to hybrid their cars, which to me, is just immature behavior. I for one like the realistically made hybrids and think they add to the game. But on the other hand, I too get annoyed with them ruining online competitions such as the TT events. You can't have it all however, so I have learned to take the bad with what I consider the good.

Ho ho, sounds like someone doesn't know how to hybrid cars in v2.14. Might be jealous because the ones who can are more faster than himself.

Common sense says to put tire wear/fuel consumption on. Any normal person can easily see that. Now quit acting like you own GT5's online just because you don't like us playing differently. Sorry that I ruin your fun with my realistic small-block powered Miata.
I'm done dealing with your "put-me-down" sense of typing. You've just confirmed in my mind that you are a "hybrid-hater". Now stop going around toting your handbag thinking that "it's my way or the highway".

And also...

...these people can see it my way, unlike you. Now buzz off with your silly childish "hybrid-hater" attitude.

A: The room was limited to 600pp and tire wear was on.

B: So you expect me to completely change the way I regulate rooms all because of you Hybrid people? Haha, you just proved that Hybriding is a negative. Thanks!

C: Cars with Mega HP get around HP limits.

And don't exaggerate the Hp figure to make a point.

What does this matter? The 155 got up to 200mph in about 30 feet. So in my opinion it did have as near as makes no difference, 7 billion hp, and it very well could have.

Second of all the high and mighty attitude won't get you bonus points.

You think thats what I'm after? "Points" ?? I don't need points to know that I'm better than all Hybriders... I tune legit cars, I race legit cars and I win with legit cars. You can't say the same, and, the exploits you people engage in ruin the community for the thousands of people like me. that makes me inherently "better" at this game than you. Just saying!

I agree the uber power cars need to go and spoon a belt sander, but it taking out on people who only do Realistic Hybrids isn't the way of doing it.

You're missing the point here, big time, fella. I never said /anything/ about realistic Hybrids. I said, Hybrids wholly ruin the community. You can't pick and choose which type of Hybrids you like and want to support. Hybrids, period, ruin GT5 online, and thats why I'm against them. Havent you ever heard the phrase "Throw the baby out with the bathwater" ? Perfectly applies here.

Some people just have to act all high and mighty just because they choose not to hybrid their cars, which to me, is just immature behavior.

Yet another person completely missing the point...

Hybrids merely existing is ruining GT5 online because of the people who cheat with them. Am I higher and mightier than them? Hell yes I am. Stop getting so butt hurt, cheese and rice...

Ho ho, sounds like someone doesn't know how to hybrid cars in v2.14. Might be jealous because the ones who can are more faster than himself.

Are you serious? There are youtube videos with 12 year old children explaining how to Hybrid. Stop acting like youre a brain surgeon because you can switch numbers around. Ive been playing GT5 since Hybrids came out, I, at any time could have Hybrided and I never did. This entirely debunks your theory.

Secondly, "more faster" is incorrect grammar and proof you are intellectually inferior to me. But I'll bite. This guy in the 155 touring car was running slower than me, by a large margin. But when he hit the straights he would rocket into literally everyone and thats why he was kicked.

On the topic of Drag racing, yeah sure. Hybriders are much much faster than me. My car goes as fast as it can go. As fast as GT5 allows. As fast as it /should/ go. You pull out an AWD, 10,000HP version of my car and nearly blast off into the stratosphere. How is that competitive in any way? How is that even fun for you?

You are not all that bright my friend, please leave these debates to the educated.

Common sense says to put tire wear/fuel consumption on. Any normal person can easily see that.

See above, tire wear was on. Don't insult my intelligence by making assumptions.

Now quit acting like you own GT5's online just because you don't like us playing differently.

Yet again someone completely missing the point. I won't even bother explaining it again, you guys are dense as limestone.

Sorry that I ruin your fun with my realistic small-block powered Miata.

For the love of god I don't give a crap about your hairdressers car. The methods you engage in are exploited by people. These exploits are ruining GT5 online and because of this, you are viewed by this legit community, NO DIFFERENT THAN THEM! Have you ever heard of the phrase "guilty by association"? B I N G O



. You've just confirmed in my mind that you are a "hybrid-hater".

It took you that long to get it? LOL.. Of course I'm a hybrid hater.. For the umpteenth time, you guys are ruining the game for us! Why oh why can't you see that....

And also...
QUOTES

WOW! You can find 3 daft kids who like the same crap you do. If I trolled this forum how many people could I find who disapprove of Hybriding? hundreds. This is irrelevant

You have literally NO argument that could possibly win against mine, because you people are ruining the game for me. You actively make GT5 less fun for me. Do I do the same for you? No.. so honestly, just go away, and don't let the doorknob hit you in the VJ on the way out.
 
...and we're done here. OP's question has been answered, and the rest of the people in here should be happy infractions aren't being handed out for the gross AUP violations. Next time, they will be.
