I'm going to have to show you this in my defense.

I can't watch most of those videos here at work. I Haven't figured out why I can't up grade the player. I get the message that it was installed successfully but it just doesn't want to work.

That sucks. My work prevents new stuff from installing too. Well, not mine, but my position gets full admin access.
 
I've got my copy, going through C class now. Can't connect to network though. Maintenance update or something. Having fun anyway.
 
Maintenance is over. Downloading update as I type this. Hope it works first time! I've cleared C events as well!
 
Try doing the following

1) go to the news area on the main menu
2) press the PS button on the controller
3) exit the game with the PS button
4) restart the game and the update will continue from where it stopped

So if you exit the game when in the news area it saves the downloaded update and continues where it left off. Try this and let us know if this works.

Thanks will try, but I've got up early hoping to have success while yurup sleeps :)

Update ripping along so far, no error apart from the one yesterday - 3/4 done in 5 mins!
Got C, B & 1/2 A done yesterday b4 update.. saving for 430..
What a wonderful game! Physics totally different, & the delay when coming on/off throttle just so much more "real"...

OK, update done! didn't need the above, but hope this may help others!?
 
doesnt work jcb. each time you press the news button it starts donloading the update from the start.

Sorry to hear that :ouch: It was much faster for me this time, but only tried it twice.. Shame it can't be downloaded like the firmware..

@nurhak

Yeah, hopefully the peeps will improve as well. Have played once, 1st beginners race - most were bumping, swerving when alongside etc etc..
The main culprit was cibu or clibu.. Kinda turned me off it, so now racing boring laps to get the F430 :crazy:
 
bought the F40 yesterday and wow! AMAZING!!! haven't tried all the A-class events yet though. Does the QTS become availible after completing those?
 
Get used to it... :)

I just cleared S and on my way to get the F2007. Anyone got a good money maker event, i don't wanna wear out my F40 on the Suzuka one lapper.
I'm doing the 680pt races to get money, they take about 5min each and are easy to win with the Blitz ER34 :) Gets you 32,500 Cr. for every win.
Just bought the F40 10mins ago, but I don't have the right transmission settings yet to finish 1st...
 
Third time lucky for me, took a while to download. I love the F40, it just feels so light, delicate and alive. It's a great drive. I'm just dissapointed and somewhat annoyed that they didn't get the steering right for the Citroën C4, only the outer rim is supposed to turn as the steering wheel center is fixed. But the wheel center turns with the rim. One would think that they would pay attention to something like that.
 
I bought the game last tuesday. I completed all classes. And then i raised money for the F1 2007. Just do the A8 race with the f430. Just need some practice. Go as fast as you can trough the pitlane and go out of the pitlane and try to brake and use the other cars to go faster through the corners. On the straight brake and shiftdown to 4th gear then go straight trough the grass to shortcut.(Daytona speedway road course) maybe it's a little hard. But it worked for me. Every 2 minutes you earn 20.000 credits. And for me i already did it 100 times. And now i'm enjoying the F1 2007.
 
Man this update for PAL Prologue is taking forever....It's been 10 minutes and I'm not even half way....

Do you actually need to download the update to play PAL Prologue? My copy should arrive today - but i'm not online at home.

Yeah, they're good. I found out that the Tuned Elise is great for the first P-races.
Online is a more fun way of getting credits thou :)

No you can play the game. Some options are disabled till you update the game though.

I'm stuck on that laprecord test in C class with the cappucino. Still 1.8 seconds off the gold time... Anyone with some tips?
