Exactly, and the thread was locked too which should say something...

Before I said it ruins the game, and I regret saying that. It's a much better idea to keep it in and just disable trophies, like all other games do when you enter a cheat.

But using SRF isn't a cheat.
 
Thats your opinion, but I think most would disagree with you on that.

PD put it in the game for us to use.
Nobody hacked the hex code of the game or anything to gain more grip.
It's there for people who may struggle with cars and may need some guidance.
Also, you thinking that most would disagree, is also your opinion.

It's got nothing to do with hacking the hex code. Take Grand Theft Auto for example. You can enter cheats to make messing around more interesting, but then trophies are disabled until you reload the game.

PD have put SRF right there for us, encouraging us to use it.
They haven't hidden it away.
People can choose what Driver Aids they want to drive with, it is there game after all.
If they don't feel comfortable with driving a 787B without TCS, they shouldn't be forced to race without it on.
People learn in different ways, PD need to open up to a bigger audience, and they are attempting just that.

It's not a cheat. not everyone plays gran turismo in a helmet and a fire suit like you, relax.

And I really don't understand that. I think the moderator just disagreed with me, and thats not very democratic. I'm just trying to say my view, and hope Polyphony see it and agree. If people agree with me then say so, and if they don't then say that too. Polyphony can decide to change it or not based on how many people want the idea implemented. I thought thats the whole point of forums like this.

It's because it was a "whiny" thread.
But let's discuss democratically now :)

I'm not saying anyone should be forced not to use it. But the trophies should be there as a way to demonstrate your skill. If you want to EARN them, then keep practicing, and then you would have truly EARNED them. And when you finally get it, you get a sense of achievement.
 
This seems a little like the thread I just read.:dunce:
How about we keep our own views on it to ourselves,....... or put them on the original thread about SRF?

Another loophole would be to just bring an overpowered car to the race.

People who want to keep their views to themselves shouldn't have ever signed up to this forum. The whole point of this forum is to express our views. I can't put them in the other thread because that one got locked for some reason. And I'm kind of glad that one got locked anyway, because I said it in a childish way. This time I am trying to be more objective.

Who cares?

If people get more enjoyment out of GT5 by using SRF, or any of the other built in assists, then that's up to them.

I don't use them because I find it more enjoyable without them turned on, but I don't feel that my digital trophies are some how worth less because someone earned them a different way.
 
True, and I think thats another thing about this game that should be changed. But thats another topic for another thread.

As I said before, it's your own game.
You can either do it the easy way (over powered car), or do it the hard way (equal or under powered car).
Some people want to easily win and use SRF so that should be up to them.
As for trophies, I hate those things, because of them, I force myself to get 100% trophies every game.
GT5 is the only game that isn't 100%.
Trophy OCD sucks...
 
I don't use it but it sounds like dumb idea. If you couldn't get a trophy because of it then it shouldn't be there in the first place.

I cant see how taking photos of stuff shows your "skill" in the game, or going over 300/400km/h shows "skill" but ok.

Why does it bother you if other people use SRF anyway? Noone is forcing you too, and im sure it doesnt affect you if someone does.

The point I was making is this thread is a replica of the one I read yesterday discussing the same thing.
 
Otherwise the trophies in this game are worthless.

Aren't trophies for your OWN feeling of personal achievement?? Why nitpick over how someone else achieves their OWN trophies. Trophies dont give you an edge in the game. They are there to give people extra goals to try and achieve. I guess some people using skid recovery to get trophies might feel a bit cheated later on down the track when they gain more skill and pass the requirements without aids, but will not have a popup acknowledging this. I dont give a toss about who has what trophy because at the end of the day its down to who passes that finish line 1st.
 
It's another mark of the general dumbening down of games in general. Remember when beating the game was actually a feat, and not something everyone who plays the game is entitled to be able to do?

I really don't care about trophies or anything, but I do share the view that SRF is cheating. Well something that shouldn't be in a game that sells itself as a simulator anyways.

Why? Shouldn't you be able to complete GT5(100%) if you are driving with ABS, TCR, ASM too, or if you cut som corners?

It's a game for god sake, let everyone decide for themself how to play it.
