Sports: Super Soft???

gordongt · Jul 5, 2012

Hello people of GTPlanet. I have come across of something weird, buggy and new. I am currently racing in the B-Spec Le Mans 24h race and it has bugged big time. I suspended the race after about 3 hours or so and when I restarted it, 2 things happened.

1: One of my opponents had no pit crew so he couldn't make a pit stop. I should of caught a video but I suspended it again and reloaded it and all seems fine now

2: Half of my opponents are racing on Sports: Super Soft as pictured below. I know for a fact that this tire don't exist in the game but they are using it. Maybe something new to come in GT5? Also they don't seem to be wearing out at all.

It's old. I don't remember how it happens or any other details, but the info is probably here

What's amusing is, this thread has nearly the exact same title as this one:

My bad but what about one of my opponents not being able to pit?

EDIT: I did search but didn't find anything on it

Super softs where probably something that PD thought about implementing but didn't for whatever reason and just left the half programmed tyres in the game. GT5 seems to have lots of strange little bugs like this, it's no surprise though with the amount of patches stuck onto it.

Racing soft tires in the game are already grippier than real super softs on most cars in the game, an even grippier tire would've been nonesense.
