many of us have completed career mode, or at least as much as we intend to. so, what are you doing now? i have completed S and the majority of IA and dont really intend to do much more at this time (pretty much did the minimum in each level to progress to the next) so now i'm grinding on like the wind indy (better pay per minute than ssx) working on 3 different things; first, trying to max out credits. second, trying to get the autobarmy trophy (2100 miles to go). third, trying to get teh engine and oil condition to degrade on my pescarolo c60 hybride judd '05. i was at ~1500 miles last i checked which was a while ago, last changed oil before 1000. as for cash, currently have 16M.
 
I have yet to complete the career, but I am trying to make progress on my car collection.
 
Slowly completing my second game on my old trade account. Then grinding away credits on my main account. Also there's some trophies I still need to pick up, and a few more cars so...

Still some fun left.:D
 
I just golded the last two events I had to complete. The Elise mission and the full lap at the Nurburgring with the Ford GT40. Now I finally golded everything. Although I'm sill at 99% :/

But I don't care much about completion anyway. Now it's time to have some fun in Arcade which is what I enjoy the most!

Haven't done the seasonals?

I have yet to complete the Ford 'ring mission and I already hit 102%.

I did the seasonal events, except for the Anniversary Car Time Trials. If those count, then it's kind of unfair, since not everyone got the Anniversary Edition.

Hmm, it would be strange if just 2 seasonal races would account for 3% when 2 career missions account for ~1%.

I remember the guy that opened a thread about not getting 100% after completing everything. He said that after a while the thing went to 100% by itself.
 
I've done everything in career except for some of the NASCAR races. I've got around 400 miles left for the autobarmy trophy, and that's the only one left, so I'm just running up some miles to get that done. Doing some 15 minute races around Ascari and the Nurburgring,and 10 laps at Suzuka, trying a bunch of different cars.
 
Well I di all of the first 2 sections of career races, then jumped ahead getting just enough stars to unlock the next tests until I had S opened up then I went back and did the races I had skipped over ro get all the stars and the prize cars.

I have not did all the missions yet nor have I tried to gold the S tests yet, I will get around to it eventually. I have did all the seasonals of course and mostly I have been buying, tuning and driving cars. Have ran the 550pp touring car race on bathurst quite a few times tuning various 500PP road cars in the process, Lots of laps around Motegi in a Nascar tuning the car along the way and quite a few times through the Williow 20 mile race in several different cars.

Also have been doing a few of the Nurburgring races but wish there was more 2 lap races on the 12 mile layout and for lower PP cars 450-600 or so.

And of course been doing some online racing and tuning
 
I haven't completed all career yet, I'm rubbish at drifting, and mission races I can only manage bronze on most of the races. 70% progress at the moment, How do you win the indy races? I tried it once and keep getting rammed and all hell break loose. S license still got Spa, Le mans and Silverstone to be completed. Tried the spa with Mazda Furai, got 6th place.
Currently enjoying stock road cars at Nurburgring.
 
Have to say I am not really that good at drifting, still got a lot of races to do in career. Kind of pacing myself with it at the moment.
 
I'm doing 2 things at once, so aside from trying to complete as much as I can of the game, I've also purchased my first wheel and am learning to play with that rather than the DS3. Although I'm finding it practically impossible to Gold Licence test S-5 (Veyron), I did manage to silver this morning with the DS3. I could barely break into a 2.20 second lap with the wheel.

Other than that, only 2 trophies short of platinum and my Profile Stats say I'm at 92% complete. I have a few stars left to achieve in IA and then most of the S races haven't been done. (I'm not a fan of LMS cars and above, I prefer the slightly lower pace of Production or GT3 cars.)
 
I restarted my career a couple of weeks ago (thought my game and/or PS3 was corrupted so did a complete format and forgot to back up my save!) and have been trying to do all events at each level before progressing to the next level. Am currently on IA level with 2 Rainmasters race and the GT Championship (followed by the licence) to go before going on to Super. Have completed all the missions, coffee breaks etc till this point, have done about half of the Goodwood events, all the seasonals and lunar. I am also starting to build up my car collection (currently only at 110), have a couple of Trophies left (Autobarmy, Super Licence gold etc). The aim is to get Platinum and collect all the cars in the game. Once that is done, I am planning to go back and try and master all the cars that I struggled with (and had to use driving aids) first time around...not easy with a DS3

Seaaonals do count to percentage completion unfortunately. I'd wish the GT5 community option was available, so I'd be able to lend you some AE cars bro! :)
 
I've quit doing the carreer mode when I got to IA-races. I don't like driving the high powered cars...
I've been doing the WRS qualifier, and probably will do WRS when it starts back up, but other than that, GT6 will be in it's box untill shuffle racing returns...

I'm doing MLB13 The Show at the moment :)

for the like he wind indy i use the pescarolo c60 hybride judd '05 with full downforce, high rpm turbo, trans set to 267mph, brakes set to 10/7 and running race hard. i personally set controller sensitivity to 7 and turn off all aids but abs (set to 1) and race line. i average 42 seconds but can skim 40 if oil is fresh and i take all 4 corners perfectly (rarely happens). best total race time so far is 3:32.0--

Sorry. Waiting for Quick Match first before I even touch online.

Why? It takes me at the most a min or two to find a decent lobby. I like playing 450-600pp mostly so all i do is quickly search the list for the pp symbol and then read the name next to it. Fast and simple. Either way I will be happy when the update online too.
 
I have the Autobarmy and the 100 cars trophies to get, the 100 cars one is messing with me though as I have ~115 cars in my garage. Perhaps the 15th AE cars don't count.
 
Grinding out the Nurb 24 minute race in my R8 LMS Team Phoenix. It's a real good money maker imo.

Can't believe I did 2500 miles on the track already, and my Audi having 2300 miles on the clock.
 
Only got about 200 miles left for the autobarmy trophy so I think I'll do that third 'Like The Wind" race a few more times. Toyota 7 sucks for that one BTW :lol:

Because I prefer if there was no host in control. In GT5, I liked to use race cars online, but it was so annoying when I found a room with the correct regulations, only to see in the description that the host banned race cars. Or I found a good room, but then the host would leave and the new host would change the room to something else. It may be easy to find rooms in GT6 now, but the game's only a month old. That might change as time passes on.
 
I got bored with career mode a few weeks ago, I achieved gold on all events up to "S" and then just lost interest. Since then I've been putting cars around the Nurburgring trying to come close to some of the times set in the Nurburgring Time Trials thread in the online category... and failing.

No idea where I'm going to find over 10 seconds with the M4. 10 seconds! Its pretty addicting.
