How do you mean? Putting this on as in posting it on this thread or putting this on as in making it up

@locoman
No probs, mate

As in putting on the event

 

[Afrodeezy]

I'm up for whatever, just as long that all driving aids are allowed. That is how every event on this site should be.

Why? Some aids are okay, but Skid recovery, active steering, and ASM are completely unnecessary. I understand that the beginners may need the game to hold their hand with assists, but if you've been playing GT5 for a while, you really shouldn't need the game to "baby" you around the track.

Yes. I might not allow srf or any of that.

I just seems fair to offer everyone a chance. If the roles were reversed, if I didn't need them but others did, I would let them since I'm actually polite. Also, you made an unnecessary double post.

Yes. I might not allow srf or any of that.

Why? I don't understand why people hate those who use driving aids. Are you guys gonna be harmed personally if you are polite and let others use their preferred driving set up?

 

[gamerdog6482]

ASM has been a car-killer ever since forever, that won't change. I have never used AS, but SRF can shave up to 10 seconds on the 'Ring, despite being completely ridiculously unrealistic. I always use SRF ALWAYS, just because it makes me faster.

So that's one reason people hate them? They make you faster? I guess that just means everyone who bans them may be sore losers. Sorry for thread jacking, but if you see me asking what room settings are in a thread like this, it would just be easier to end up allowing them.

 

[gamerdog6482]

I almost always ban ASM, but I use SRF, TCS, and ABS actively. It's good to be able to drive without them, but if someone offers you a 40 oz. porterhouse, would you say you would rather have a 18 oz.?

Because those aids make it TOO easy, with no challenge. I'm not being mean, I just want a level playing field. Part of the fun is the whole risk factor that If you spin out once it can make your race a lot harder. All of these aids make it impossible to spin, and give those who use them way too much of an advantage. So to answer your question, yes, I will be harmed personally.

Exactly. Completely unfair advantage. This is why those aids shouldn't be allowed

 

[gamerdog6482]

No, you missed the point. Was the Chapperal 2J banned because of it's unfair advantage? No.

I don't appreciate your rudeness
And besides,if it was real life, I don't think you would have any aids.

 

[gamerdog6482]

IRL almost all race cars have traction control and anti-lock brakes, hell most street cars have it, too.

Actually, you can still spin out if using SRF, which is what I use along with TCS, ABS, and the Driving Line. I don't care about the rest of them. Also, another unnecessary double post.

No, you missed the point. Was the Chapperal 2J banned because of it's unfair advantage? No.

Right, it was banned because it sent rocks into the opponents windshields. Plus, it was somewhat balanced out IRL because of all of its mechanical problems.

Really? I knew about the street cars,but not the lmp and stuff..

 

[Afrodeezy]

What racing do you watch?

Right, which doesn't make any sense to ban driving aids in the game.

What racing cars drive with that stuff?

 

[otakukid96]

I don't know but I'm sure that race cars based off of road cars like those used in the IRL 24 hours of Nurburg have it.

You can still spin, but it's near impossible. The point is, it gives you an unfair advantage, and shouldn't be allowed. I don't care what to have to say anymore, nothing is gonna change the fact that those aids are unfair to us guys who don't use them.

 

[gamerdog6482]

By that you mean nothing is going to change your opinion that they are unfair.
And if you don't want the disadvantage, why don't you use them yourself?

 

[Afrodeezy]

Right, which doesn't make any sense to ban driving aids in the game.

All of the top levels of Motorsport (GT500, Touring Cars, F1) have no aids. Saying most competitive race cars have aids is just ignorant (no offense)

 

[Afrodeezy]

I don't know but I'm sure that race cars based off of road cars like those used in the IRL 24 hours of Nurburg have it.

But those aren't LMPs, which is what we are using, so this kills your argument.

 

[Afrodeezy]

Because they ruin the driving experience..

 

[gamerdog6482]

I will take offense from that, and they are there, so why not use them?

And why did you triple-post?

Also, I shouldn't have to conform because others need the game to hold their hand....

 

[gamerdog6482]

If the game could hold my hand, that would be awe-inspiring. Just think: a video game that can actually hold a persons hand!

 

[Afrodeezy]

I will take offense from that, and they are there, so why not use them?

And why did you triple-post?

Did I triple post? I didn't mean to, I'm on my iPhone, and the app is pretty unreliable & buggy

 

[gamerdog6482]

Yeah, you did, with three different quotes and three different replies.
Use multi-quote next time.

 

[otakukid96]

It is not 'the game holding their hands' it is preferred game settings. Deal with it.

You don't! THAT'S THE BEAUTY OF IT! You don't have to use them!
