Recently I completed all the GT6 carrier events, but the coffee breaks.
All the events performed disabling driving aids (except the last 2 Redbull ones), all gold.
but I'm still at 95%, due to the coffee breaks.
I don't think they should matter in the carrier percent progress. Moreover I find them
boring.
What do you think?
 
I still can't gold the one with the Lotus Elise '11
It's not a coffee break but I can't gold the 3rd moon event either
 
Finally, something I can speak on.

I find them to be a waste of time, energy, and my vocal cords. I've gotten gold on some of them begrudgingly but, and I've said this since GT4, the only reason I see for them existing is for Kaz to show us what kind of "fun" we should be having. I'm sorry, but last I checked there was no such thing as standardized fun. And what do we get in return? Just credits AFAIK, credits that could have been earned racing against better AI, or on a classic GT track, or any number of things that could have used that amount of game data better.
 
They are a bit hard, I have to admit. So far I have only succeeded to win gold in the fuel economy challenge. That is not hard to do with a G27 though.
 
There will be people who like them (I don't) but while being pointed out as "coffee breaks" they should not affect career percentage.
One of the drift things keeps me on 99%.
Not that it really matters...:rolleyes:

This is exactly what I mean. This shouldn't affect the career, since they're not a true skill test.

On the other hand: they are not really affecting "career percentage", but rather "game progression"...

What do you mean? I'm at the 95%, and the only challanges that remain are the coffee breaks. Aren't the coffee breaks the remaining 5%?
 
I love the coffee breaks, especially because of this :lol:


Honestly, it's only hard because it's not your typical race with GT's zombie AI. If you're stuck with the knocking cones challenge just look up youtube videos and follow their pattern. I got stumped in the Elise one but I watched a video and got it on my second try 👍 I agree the drift ones are annoying because the cars are set up completely wrong (and with tires that are too grippy). But keep at it and you'll get gold as well. I find some Seasonal drifts harder to gold tbh.
 
I love how people who says to them self's they're pro and have very fast laps, great tuners, drifters, got a lot of skill and so on.......but they couldn't complete "Coffee break" challenges.

I mean most of you are better (more skillful) at GT than me and still can't beat some drift challenge.
 
I think it was GT4 that had the coffee breaks but you did not have to do them to get to 100% of the game.

I can think of better ways to spend my ingame time. I never even enter drift Seasonals (though the last Willow seasonal felt also as a drift event ... )

What I meant is that you do not need the coffee break events to complete your career, you just need them to complete te game.
 
I still can't believe there were no cars awarded for completing them. I found them to be some of the most difficult events in the game.
 
Want 100% ?

:D
I personally want more coffee breaks, challenges, missions etc. They could...💡 add some seasonal coffee breaks :dopey:

I'm in the same boat. I've been stuck at 99% because I'm terrible at drifting and haven't been able to Gold either the second or third drift coffee breaks.:(

Got gold after a few tries last night, it really isn't difficult at all! If I had saved replay I'd post it but this rough sketch should help you a bit. After the start immediately turn left, knock the little group of cones and drive to the next group. The trick is to aim for the group of cones and knock as many as you can on the way and finish at the other side of the track which has about 20 cones. I got exactly 180 :cheers:

I hate coffee breaks too. Every time I go for a coffee at work, they make we weave and jump around lots and lots of cones to get to the machine. If I knock one over, they make me go back to the start.

Wait a minute...

Well thank you sir I'll certainly try this.
I always did my best to hit the groups of cones, but my best for now is around 150.

Don't mind it being in the game, but to have career or game progression tied to it just screams arcade to me. While we're at it lets throw in some car soccer, ramp jumping and a smash up derby.

They'd be good fun. I don't like the coffee breaks much either, but then I also don't like the karts. I just don't care that I'm not at 100%, I play the bits I like.
