do you know that ps3s are hanging?? do you know many people including myself can't join a room?? do you know they down-graded the graphics?? do you know they made the physics more arcade?? do you know etc. etc. etc.???
NO!
Just as I was thinking!

^^Way to blow it out of proportion.

The graphics at 1080p were downgraded for Framerate performance. If you dont like that, run it at 720p where it looks fine.

The physics are the same as they were before as far as i can tell, only been racing F430's and they feel identical before the patch.

bugs and room d/c's are gunna happen regardless. It may be the patch in which they should offer a quick fix in the coming days, or it may be heavy server loads killing online play at the moment, i know my 79mb patch took me an hour and a half to download yet my mate who got it first thing was done in 3 minutes flat.

Well I've been playing it since the patch came out and my PS3 has not hung once, I've not personally tried the on-line yet, but lots of other have and seem quite happy with it. Most reporting far more stable rooms and comms.

The physics have not changed one little bit, that's from running both F430s and a few other trophy cars. Yes the graphics do have slightly less AA that before, but as a result the framerate holds together much,. much better (Monza's first corner is no longer a framerate nightmare on the first lap). That's a trade off I'm more than happy to make, particularly as Ferrari Challenge was not exactly the best looking game anyway, I'm fairly certain most didn't buy it for the look, rather the physics.

Personally I'm more than happy with the patch.

as long as I can continue to be on the leaderboards I have no intention for retirement that means I can drive fast in FC where else I don't see you there!!! maybe you need to get your self some easier racing game to play 👍

 

[klondike]

So far I dident have any promlems eather. I only driven the 430 but I dident notice any diference with the physics.

I tryed to join a lobby room just to see if I could, it went smoooth no problems at all.

And PS3 hasent hung for me or anything. I have the 40 GB EU model, and I deleted the old save game from HD before I updated, not sure if it has anything to say, but no problems here.

So far I am happy with patch.

 

[amar212]

whats wrong with you dude??

I was just sarcastic, because all your posts here - and on Unoffical Forum - are full with complaints about irrelevant things or things that are non-possible to fix when code-charateristics of FC:TP are taken into concern.

Try to be creative, constructive critic - not just complain about "when DLC is coming out", "physics are bad", "V2 patch sucks" and so on. Instead of being happy that Eutechnycs actually care about community - and NO OTHER console developer ever did improvements in the way that we're getting with FC:TP - you're just flaming and flaming about nothing.

So, that's whats wrong with me. Sorry if I missunderstood something, in that case I apologise.

Gentlemen.

You will not flame each other here at GT Planet.

Simple statement and one that I expect you both to follow. Keep your discussions with other members polite, if you don't think you can do that you have two choices. Don't post or the staff will in the end stop you posting.

No community as large as GT Planet is going to have 100% common agreement on every topic, but what we can do is discuss differences of opinion in a polite and respectful manner.

Consider yourselves warned.

Just in principle, threatening to buy another copy of the game if the publisher doesn't come through with something, doesn't seem like an effective way of applying pressure!

 

[Hun200kmh]

I have one question. If I download the patch tonight, will I still be able to play with someone (Biggles, as an example) that hasn't got the same patch?
