who uses the GT force?

[aaron_3719]

is it better using the wheel rather than the controller?

 

[SammaN]

I prefer using it over a controller, I find it more precise for turning, and speed control.

I think so, for a couple of reasons:
- I've been using wheels all the way through the Gran Turismo series, and am a complete spaz with the DS2
- I think people who are playing without force-feedback are missing out on a lot of the simulation aspect of the game. There is quite a difference in how the cars feel through the wheel - the Miata and the NSX in particulary come alive through the wheel with great feedback as to grip and attitude.

a miata with attitude?

surely not!

where can i pick one of these gt forces at....iv looked at gamestop, softwear ect. and electronit boutique....i cant find it any where...what does it look like??

There's no question the Force Feedback S/W really enhances the game, although the quickest times are often using the controller as you don't fight the wheel (Like at the hairpin at Cote, or the berms on SS11), besides you don't drive a car with buttons do you?

a miata with attitude?

Ving, you obviously haven't driven a Miata/MX5 , in real life

I'm SIX seconds a lap faster than my other competition (MR2), and 2 seconds faster than V8's and that's in a mildly worked 1.6L NA6A - boy that car's got attitude with a Capital A

Some of the guys in our club regularly beat 911's in the Sportscar Series, while others have gotten 11 sec 1/4's out of theirs with the addition of a turbo


Hey but I'm biased as I own one and race (a real) one

a miata with attitude?

 

[vat_man]

Can't buy them new -they discontinued them, and replaced them with the infamous 'Driving Force'. You might find one second hand.

When I said 'attitude' I was referring to the state of the car's handling - whether it was over or understeering.

 

[ving]

but it's such a girls car slammer

 

[slammer]

Yeah Ving they love em...real hard to shag in though

 

[ving]

lmao!

no back seat!

hairdressers car then!

 

[slammer]

well lets just say I've had a great "hair job"or 2 , and lets not hijack the poor post

Once you get used to the handling of the steering wheel, you'll never go back to the DS2. Better throttle/brake control and you can feel the car yaw and roll. If you don't have one - buy one now!

MmmmMMmmMM, the GTForce is strong in this one.

Sorry. Couldn't resist.
