I got my 30 second penalty for cutting track, I didn't notice any warning on screen or audible. Just appeared.

I can see after watching my replays that I need a good lesson on how not to rear end guys.....Sgeti got it, Z got it, Bear got it and a couple of weeks ago I must have hit Rednose about five times in group A. Sorry guys, I'll try to be better. Unacceptable on my part.

That Honda was a good pick, once the tires warmed up....wow. Push it just a bit too hard and it warned you before it went. I like that. It didn't like to be light going over the rises, I could almost feel the negative Gs.

So, to me the reverse grid worked well, the game didn't punish us for going to slow and we got together fast, one potential problem solved. The room was fairly stable without any DCs. It's getting easier by the day to navigate the host menu, I hope. My issue lately is the menu popping up right in the middle of a race, twice last night, twice put me in a wall. Also, using Sgeti's fix for a fast menu works like a charm, just clear the saved data before each night and you can access the menu in two seconds.

Oh yeah....Colts is Awesome.....yada yada.

Sincerely, from the bottom of my scrote sac..........congratulations, Mr. Awesome, see what happens when you SHUT UP.
If I remember correctly it was just a flesh wound... 'twas nothing mike.
 
Gentleman,

last Monday I could not join the race. Was already too drunk since it was a holiday and I played PC2 all afternoon while on IPA support.

Looking forward to next Monday when I won't be drunk by 5pm.

To all those who planned on joining me for testing the Wednesday series,

We will not be able to run that test room tonight. I just got home and have a 6.6gb update and won’t have it done tonight. I’m really upset about this. Like when I turned on my ps4 and saw that I yelled **** and my wife came running in cause she thought I hurt myself. Haha

Why are you upset?.. you should be rejoicing. P2 may now be playable. At least I hope so. I stayed off it, so my blood pressure would not rise. But now perhaps dancing in the streets is in order. We shall see.

Bear. I hate to say it, but it became unplayable for me too. My wheel just kept losing FFB. 3-4 laps into a race and *poof* gone. Just a wimpy wet noodle. Reboot the game and wheel, start another race with everything going good, wah, wah, wahhh... FFB gone again. Just too frustrating to even try to play. Hopefully things will improve with the patch. Maybe test tomorrow. GTSport was kinda fun though. I prefer the realism of PCars and AC, but GTSport was surprisingly fun - a lot better than I anticipated.

You know strangely enough I don't recall hearing that guy. And I have both race engineer and spotter set to On. I hear the race engineer though. Have to pay more attention to see if I hear the spotter guy next time I return to the game after they finally release some patches for Pcars2 on PS4.

I don't recall hearing him either.

You have to turn on the controller because the spotter voice comes from that speaker. I just figured that one out recently.

Doesn't look like either Mike or I got a friend request from you. Please send us one so we can get an invite to you on race night. Thx.
 
So with headphones you can't hear him?
I haven't heard him through headphones either. We were laughing the other day because I was trying to figure out this voice I was hearing, as I don't usually have the DS4 turned on I had no clue this voice was coming out of it's speaker! I had it on because I was using it to move the hud symbols around.

I hear him through my headphones. I'll have to look at the audio settings next time I'm on the PS4. I know there were two settings that had to be changed, but now I can hear him as clear as day. Usually calls out car lengths behind and whether on your left or right. But I'll be switching back to Crew Chief now that UDP is enabled - because swear words - teehee. I'm such a juvenile.
 
Guys, I won't be there. My wheel won't work properly on p2. It does crazy stuff. I'll return when they get the game fixed.
FWIW,

He does have to be set to 'Always' as well, and not just authentic. He comes through my headphones just fine.
I downloaded the patch last night, gonna climb in a car and see what is better!
 
SPOILER ALERT! Don't read this if you actually want to know what the patch has fixed!!!!!




Gents, the HUD is FIXED! I adjusted and saved it to my liking in 60 seconds and it never changed! How freaking nice!

I setup a multiplayer room which only one other guy joined. I guess not everyone is as gaga about the BMW Procar as I am. Anyway I created a special setup. They now are calling the baseline setup the 'Loose setup' which makes sense. It also gives you a nice confirmation box 'save complete'. I adjusted the fuel to 18L and it saved it to a new new name for quali, but for the race it returned me to the 21L I had been using in private testing under the same name, but fortunately not to the full fuel load, so that bug may still be an issue. I also started a second session and that one started me qualifying with 16L - which I guess is what was left after my first race.

My buddy left halfway through the first race, guess he wasn't fond of Long Beach when it rains. I can understand, rain sorta spoils hanging out on the sand. Anyway it's too bad, the second race was really cool - it was pouring on one side of the track, but the other end just had fog rolling through - NEAT!

My sound seemed about the same, so I don't see any change there in volume.

The 'shift time' adjustment actually works now, although it still doesn't really work as well as PCars1. If you adjust the time, it doesn't really force you to use the clutch, it just literally takes longer for the game to accept the new gear (for it to 'engage'), clutch or not. It does at least make it less like a game so you can't just click it onto each gear, and I think maybe between the clutch sensitivity and the time setting I could get it more like P1, but that's too much work. Plus PCars had different settings for each car, so that's a lot of work for reality. I just set it at 65 and will probably leave it there.

Genrally menus and setup screens seem to move quickly and nicely, and it's been a week since I deleted things as per SGETI's fix.

Well, those are my findings, see y'all on the beach....
 
Hi aero

I got a friend request from mike.

I sent a FR to aerolite but not sure if it was you.

I have CB on my friends list and I do believe I sent him an invite last week. I think I did.....the pipe was overflowing Monday night, I don't remember what we raced even. Lol

GT Sport was pretty cool with the new tracks I saw. But it was missing alot of the feel I have enjoyed in pcars.
 
I'm not planning on getting GTS, the car physics are still not as good as PCars or AC and I doubt the release will be any different. The world graphics are better and the livery editor is cool, but it still has too much of an arcade feel to me. I want to have the most realistic car experience so it's the car and track that count for me, not the eye candy stuff. "The Real Driving Simulator", they don't deserve to have that on the cover.

The PCars2 patch has definitely improved things, and with more upgrades sure to come, it can only get even better.

I agree that GTs physics aren't up to par with PCars, and not close to Assetto, but understand the past two nights I've tried to play PCars 2 have been brutal. GTSport felt like the gold standard compared to the garbage FFB my wheel kept reverting to. Don't know what broke in my game, but it's FUBAR. Going to try the update tomorrow night - fingers crossed.

It's so strange that some have had big issues while some of us have only had to deal with a couple of bugs before the patch. I have had no issues at all with my G27 since day one. Really hope the patch sorts things out for you.

I haven't been able to but all he third party apps work now so I'm going to go back to the crew chief app. I tried pacrs dash today and it was working perfectly.

PC dash worked for me as well but it's the original. I'm using it on a laptop. It said I installed RS Dash but I don't know where it went. Then I went to google play and it said I had no device to use it. But after reading set up notes on pocket playground I think SMS still has to tweak a couple of things yet.
I think I might try crew chief, for the life of me I can't get any of the crew or spotter to come through my headset. I've gone to every setting I can find but to no avail. I'm sure it's something simple!
 
I’ve tried a few things as well and I couldn’t get it to work either. I downloaded the RS dash but figured I didn’t need to spend the $5.99 they require for it to work. Plus if I make the RS dash work then crew chief won’t work so I’m just going to stay with the original for now.
