When was the last time you played GT6?

A few minutes ago, testing completed replicas :

Lamborghini Gallardo SP Engineering LP570-4
HKS CT200MR Street
SRT Viper GTS '14 ( GTS and TA )
Schirra-Mini JCW GTS Nordschleife WR
Honda NSX Type R '02 ( stock with corrections )
Abarth 500 ( stock with many corrections )
Time Attack BMW M3 E92 ( secret project )
Shelby GT500 Super Snake

Will still play GT6 regularly, as long as there's replica to build and there are hundreds of ideas for 1000+cars in GT6.
 
2 hours ago doing the GTP WRS online race.
GT6 still does it for me.
 
Lately I've been hopping on every now and again to run my Corvette C7.R mock-up in the 2 "endurance" races at the Ring (the 15 minute and 24 minute varieties).

I would try online again, but I just don't have the time to hunt down a good room.
 
Having dusted everything off and booted up again with a new connection that is wireless - since I have been banished to a far off place in the home where the loud sounds of racing interspersed with snarls or shouts of glee don't disturb the rest of my placid household - I had to test everything out and did so last night.
I first investigated some rooms - the rooms with mics off and smaller crowds worked fine - however rooms with mics on and large crowds turned buggy,
This was a particular fine room - and popular as you can see - but the connection had me all over the place - I could literally see cars 'jump':

What I'm seeing is smaller rooms and minimum peripherals make for a more stable connection.

Later on I made a room of my own - 'Online Physics' and selected the Ring as a test track so that I could test out the physics in full, and was visited by others - we played some tag, cruised, tested, lapped, and I finally left, leaving - literally - the Son of God in command of the room. Or at least that's what he called himself. He raced divinely, too - and sent me an FR. I guess I'll be due for some miracles soon. :)
 
Not for 4 months, assetto corsa is just too appealing. I miss my gt6 buddies but I'm trying to convince them to get a PC. I do love gt and I'm hopefully they will impress on new gen, I just have put my money in pc now do I think it's the end of my gt days, with pcars, AC, dtm 2014 (soon) iracing there's too much fun to be had and a great time for sim.racing,
 
Yesterday, hooning around in my MK.IV Supra at Zahara, making the most of PD's (disappointing) treatment of that glorious 2JZ.

For me it's a love/hate thing with GT6, it's all I have at the moment, because everything else is out of my home-owner budget or delayed.
 
Probably a month ago, and I've only played it a few times total in the last six months.
 
I haven't played for several months because of this

...and there's no way I am going to delete game data and download all those damned updates.
 
2 days ago. Did a hot lap around the Red Bull Ring in a turbo-charged Hawaiian blue '98 Mini Cooper.
 
Few moments ago. Tried to complete GT All-Stars with Mercedes-Benz AMG Vision GT. Got pissed off in Brands Hatch. Maybe trying with a 4WD vehicle next.
 
Yesterday, but before that it was a week ago today.

Darn real-life and all, invading my gaming.

Well there is no way you'll ever play GT6 again at that rate.
The install won't miraculously fix itself.
May as well sell it.

Play it constantly with quite a few series I take part in.
Played it yesterday with a 1 hour 'Enduro.' race.
That FT-1, even though you can't tune it, is a fun car to drive.
 
I tend to come back for every update and maybe stick around for a few days after each one. It's always fun to take a random car for a ride but I rarely feel like doing it. Maybe I would do it more if the game didn't have this cold feeling to it.
 
I've turned the game on to download and install updates and to see what's new/changed, but I haven't actually played (driven or changed anything in the game besides installing updates) since March 2014. As much as I love the amount of cars, events and tracks, the game just feels too clinical, too artificial, compared to Forza 5, which I have been playing daily since February 2014. And I also play Forza Horizon 2 as I find it quite fun...
 
Last night. And there's just too much new material in my game save (with almost three months of updates to investigate) to look at, so I ignored everything and hit the online lobbies as soon as I got home from work.
Right away I see a lone guy at the Ring calling for 450 pp cars. I jump in there. Turns out it was a guy who was playing GT6 for the first day ever. He had been a GT5 online player. He had a Trans Am. I grabbed my Mini. We battled twice. Getting ready to battle a third time when two more guys appeared. We had changed over to Fairladys by then - different models. The others grabbed Fairladys, too. Another huge battle - Canada, USA, Japan, Spain. Japan won.
I had to leave for dinner by then - but I left the three of them still battling.
Was a good time.

Now to go check all this 'new, new, new' crap. Kaz just won't leave me alone. He knows I'm an addict and just keeps feeding me.
 
Last Friday. Why? Because got the new COD haha and next time I will go on GT6 will be probably when the update comes out because at the moment it looks really good what's to come!
 
I just turned it off. What a silly question:)
I doubt I have gone more than a week without playing since I bought it on day one. It's a nasty habit.
 
I have not played in months, been deep into Forza Horizon2 as I love the car selection and open world environment. Probably going to sit it out until GT7 and hope some of the issues are fixed.
 
Last Sunday, the gang over in @DBeav12 & @Ameer67's cruise club were online later at night and I managed to hang around for a bit.

Hoping to find time today to play, I want to check a few things with my Supra and look into an ACR-X Viper project.
 
Last night - I have avoided the ... time trial events (KTM at Streetso and an econobox car at Bathurst...)

I also wanted to improve on the sierra de la circuito track guide, but amazed the data logger doesn't have a stop watch ... flabbergasted!

I ended up taking a 323F (Lantis by Mazda) stock to that track - and despite it being a front wheel drive car it was good fun (ABS=0 and Comfort tyres... not too sure that Traction control did much!)

I'm just glad they didn't film the Smurf movie here. (Juzcar - south of Ronda was painted blue.)

I play only when there are new seasonals to get gold and collect the prizes.
Or when a update comes...
 
Two days ago. '49 Beetle around Red Bull. Damn - a beast it is :-)
Try to log in every day for bonus reasons. Had a break for a couple of months but right now i stick with it.
 
Haven't played since the GTAcademy qualifiers back in June. I have actually considered selling the PS3 and all the associated gear so I can have a cleaner looking desk! :sly:

I have also started an exercise regime that calls for 6 am starts so no more late night gaming for me and most of my GT6 playing was after the kiddies went to bed.

To be honest I don't really miss it. After doing the "Cheapest way around" worksheet and updating it a few times I figured I might just wait for GT7 :dopey:
 
Moving to the sticks, and having to switch to capped satellite, kinda puts a damper on things. Last time I played waaaas....July? And I got so angry with the Goodwood X20?? challenge that I said no more.
 
Haven't played for a month, did quite a lot of lapping of Bathurst around the time of the 1000km. Lately, my PS3 time has been devoted to FIFA 15.

Fingers crossed, a decent Spec II is actually on the way soon!
 
Like a couple hours ago :P What can I say, I love driving cars I can probably never afford and learning how one car behaves differently from another and just having fun drifting is a good time for me :)
