Accidentally posted this in the Endurance Thread, sorry @BradESPN

This was for @Hellbringer69 and his affinity for high performance taxi liveries. Someone already had the idea for the Megane included in the next update.

Any word on tracks??

 

[DesertPenguin]

Circuit de la Sarthe but no mention of layouts so don't know if there's a no chicane version. For the newer members, we've used La Sarthe before and it's a three lap race. Would we even be allowed to race a slower car that only gets two laps?

 

[Tecticles]

In the link sam provided it says there will be the chicane and no chicane versions.

Why the BRZ when we already have the 86 GT? I don’t get that...

We were talking about you the other night. You ever coming back? I miss being unable to pass the best blocker in the game!

Ha I guess I'll take that as a compliment. I never liked the word blocking. I would never intentionally do that. But I have been accused of stubbornly holding my line.
As far a coming back it's definitely on my radar.

It's not the same without double-paddy.....

Yours is definitely a more accurate term for your driving style. God knows you are the toughest snail to pass!

PCars has a GP layout for this track. Hopefully that will be one of the options for this track soon!

 

[DesertPenguin]

I tried to look for it from the main track and you can see they modeled the first turn that diverts from the main track but past that you can't see

 

[GTPvw_slc]

I wish they would have given us The Bugatti circuit of Le Mans!!!!

Anyone running laps this evening?

Yeah, I haven’t touched this week’s combos for a few days so I’ll be on tonight for sure.

 

[Raw10_2u]

I am getting on as soon as I download and update the game.

Everyone can now rejoice. PD has given an "I wanna go fast" track that is known for producing less than stellar racing outside the confines of endurance racing and the sheep will flock to it and defend it's merits.

Opinions are just that.I don't find oval racing all that exciting,that is my opinion.I do like this track,it is technical and difficult to be fast on,I learned that while doing laps for GT Academy.Good racing has been had on this track even in SNAIL.Opinions may vary on this topic.Keep an eye out for more cars and tracks,,,,that you aren't having to pay for.

 

[BradESPN]

Room up for combo practice:

0474-5899-4710-7220-8964

 

[DesertPenguin]

Gonna be up all night? I was just about to post asking if anyone wants to practice tonight.

 

[singlepaddy]

Thanks birdie but I think we need to put the emphasis on "snail" lol.
If I wasn't so damn slow we wouldn't have to talk about how hard it is to pass me.

Yeah this room will be up for a while barring any technical difficulties.

You've out paced me before. so you're not always slow

As most of you know I'm not very knowledgeable in the tech department, so I have a quick question for y'all. I have a PS4 Pro and while in a non-Snail lobby I was told that I should be using a monitor vs my 4K tv. He said something about less lag between console and tv/monitor and said something about frames per second or whatever. Anyway he said I would benefit from a monitor, as far as visuals go too, but I'm pretty happy with the 4K tv.
What are you guys using??
TIA

 

[TexasJDC]

Ps4 pro on a 4k tv no problems for me

It depends upon the set. Below is a decent database showing information for many sets for comparison. This is why I still use a relatively ancient 720p, as for what limited PS4 time I still have it is more than adequate and has great response. A lot of the non gaming specific feature packed sets that came out in the past few years had some lag issues, although the higher end units have been turning around.

I call my 55' 4K monitor a monitor...... If you don't see any problems with your display, then there are no problems. It's like the age old question about when is a good wine a good wine. Should a good wine be expensive. My moto is that if a wine tastes good then it is a good wine.

 

[DublDee]

Thanks guys, and honestly if there's any lag I'm not noticing it, so I'll just stick with what I have.

 

[Hanable]

Im using my old ps4 and gts look great on there. It must look wonderful in 4k with a ps4 pro.

 

[Marcus Garvey]

Most people will become accustomed to a particular amount of lag over time. This is most evident when you find a hotshot guitar hero player playing on someone else's console and television. That's why those types of games often have calibration methods, as they are far more sensitive to input lag than most. Driving a car is all about constantly adapting anyway. What do us slow saloon drivers do with our soft springs and bars and way too much rebound? We simply turn in way earlier than everyone else, adapting to the strengths and weaknesses(input lag in this case.) Much like folks who use an out of whack tyre gauge because they did all of their setup around it and the numbers don't matter(just relative) it wouldn't often be noticed until they were forced to setup a different car or the same car with different tyres, etc. You may have very little lag, or you may have a bunch and simply be driving around it. I don't know.
