If physics were your sole criteria, sure Forza would be better than GT... but there's numerous PC sims that blow Forza away in that department. Thus if that's your only criteria, why you'd waste your time with Forza is beyond me.

Pc sims offer more flexibility and creativity for example 3rd party add ons ( mods, wheels, human motion interaction etc..). No one has explained to me what makes a PC sim better. rFactor uses the simple F = 1/2*C*p*v2*A for aerodynamics same goes for shift 2 (they use the same data parameters for aerodynamics). This leads me to believe that C.A.R.S will run off the same algorithm which is failure of innovation(takes more than shader quality to develop a sim). PC sims need to go extreme 👍. Utilize a multi GPU setup (like physX ) CPGPU mane.

Until I see innovation in the developing PC sim titles i'm sticking with Forza and GT5.

This discussion is over this is TGAT FOOS!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Take the talk to the vs thread....


Time to fire up new GC
 
MG Duel Gundam has been released 👍.

With that internet it's a wonder you're not bald by now :lol:

But hey, at least you got to watch 18 minutes of it, unlike me :indiff:



Aquiring Samurai Girls, though rather slowly...
 
Holy 🤬 GUILTY CROWN 17.

Shu's arm?! HIS POWER? WHAT? GAI? WHAT? UNCHARACTERISTIC OF GAI? WHAT?

I need the next episode, NOW. I got :censored:ing damn.

Guilty Crown stole one of my ideas! The main character in one of my stories was going to lose his right arm and subsequently lose most of his power. Damn it.

I don't even know what to think of what I just watched. I'm confused more than anything else.

I... I don't even what to say. Shu has no right arm, and Inori was impaled with a (her?) Void. Holy 🤬 🤬. Souta's an asshole... I don't care anymore. You're the reason Shu is acting the way he is anyway, you goddamn idiot.

WHAT DID I JUST WATCH? :lol:
 
Errbody who expected something great from Guilty Crown will love this episode. I sure did.... Why isn't it next week yet?!
 
Inorite?

When is next Thursday going to get here?! I don't have time for a 7-day wait. 🤬 that.
 
So I rewatched the opening and noticed a few things.

Little bit of the glowing arm here too. So it's clearly his.
The second half of this show kicks ass.

Allow me to illuminate some things for you...

That Gai is the clone generated by the Ghost team and its related research. It isn't the original Gai per say, much like how Inori was created from Mana but isn't the same person.

Inori was not impaled by her void - Gai used his void, which we can assume Daath extracted, to force Inori's void to manifest.

As for a character losing his powers because of his right arm being removed, when the power is clearly tied to that arm, doesn't strike me as an overly original idea Loliblade. Just sayin'

I'm not all confused by "Gai", it's everything else that's throwing me for an enjoyable loop.

I didn't see any of this coming, obviously.

They could pass the other shots off if people weren't being observant, but they HAD to make him hold her with his left hand.

As I said... don't know how to look at the picture. :lol:

Is it upside-down, what? I'm not even joking. I hate pictures like that.

I do like the foreshadowing though. Didn't even notice it, or should I say: I didn't pay particular attention to it.
 
I'm glad he finally told Yahiro to go screw off in the corner somewhere with a dirty rock. I was brutally cheering for him to swipe at 'em because, as you know, I hate him. He's become a contemporary Daryl (where is he by the way, was he killed off behind the scenes?). And I think my idea of some of Mana being in Inori after that incident a few episodes back is paying off, or perhaps she's always been that way. Who knows?

Souta is going to die. Jackass.
 
Currently re-Watching -> Ruruoni Kenshin ep.1

Question -> Before I get lost in the series, what is the proper timeline in this series? Thanks!

[quote="Terronium-12, post: 6686914"][FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium][COLOR=DimGray][B]Better in what regard?

I'll agree with the race lengths, but that was taken out because... you guessed it.... complaints.[/B][/COLOR][/FONT][/QUOTE]

[B][color=#E42217]Go to single player. Look at the races. They are all the same. Yeah they have autocross and Nurburgring challenges, but other than that every race feels the exact same. And the ones on the far right could have been championships, but no. Race this race, and then race it again!

In the online mode, the tracks needs to be random, not just a set rotation. Also the full Nurburgring is in the rotation for multi-class Lemans, but not la Sarthe... :grumpy:[/COLOR][/B]

Several more tracks that aren't even used (if at all) much in A-Spec. Online is fantastic, yes, but why the hell should I have to arrange a race on a new track no less because it isn't featured in the career mode? What kind of sense does that make?



That's where they lose credibility - they're only tweaking and revamping features because they continuously break features every goddamn patch. There are still features not only mention on the boxart, but in the Apex book that still aren't in the game. You're being shown all of these photomode locations that you have no way of getting to - what's the point of that? You're adding an option for Photo Streaming next month? Why? I can upload my pictures to Photobucket, Flickr, or IMGUR as I've been doing for the past year or so. They (PD, Sony, I don't care) had the full intention of screwing you over for DLC, and the only thing that stopped them was the tremendous outcry... as if they weren't even expecting that to begin with. And then, people claim MS/Turn 10 are money-grubbing? Get the 🤬 out of my face with that BS.

The only reason it's being supported as much as it is has to do with a few reasons: 1. They have no other choice considering the condition it was in; whether you (not you in particular) find it admirable that they're *fixing* a game that had no business being released in the condition it was is up to you. 2. How long will it be before GT6 comes out? 3. They apparently have absolutely no idea how to manage their resources, thus the reason spectators were removed from, what track was it, London?

Despite their original intention being overshadowed by outrage, they've still managed (PD, Sony, I don't care) to screw you/us over in every DLC released to date - We paid for a Premium XJR-9. Really? We paid for a Scirocco that evidently could have been patched into the game a month or two after the game was finished considering it missed the launch window.

That's my rant and it really doesn't even tap into the problems I have with the way GT5 was handled, overhyped, and presented.
Click to expand...

Yeah, I'll agree that the paltry A-Spec mode in GT5 is extremely disappointing. I'm pretty sure GT2 has more events, actually.

I only play GT5 every now and then so I don't get hands-on experience with how each individual update changes things, but I haven't noticed or heard of any features being broken by the updates.

Regarding the state of GT5 at initial launch, it was perfectly fine. I have no idea what makes you think the game was in an unreleasable state. And although I don't personally like it, it's common practice nowadays to fix a few minor bugs post-launch. Turn 10 and Forza is no exception to this, either.

Regarding DLC, I never took issue with Turn 10 selling DLC. PD does it, and yeah, their initial vision for GT5 where you buy the cars and tracks you want individually was pretty repulsive.
 
Damn, GC is surpassing my wildest expectations. It still has a long way to go but to think it might actually get there... it's just... incredible.
