I guys im new to this forum and I have seen some familiar names, maybe you recognise mine!

I still can't access the beta forums but I can get into the bug tracker.

Me too

Am I the only one who doesn't really like Northern Isle Speedway that much? Maybe if it was longer I'd be more interested in it.

Considering I was #1 on the leaderboard last time, and have yet to crack at it this time, I really like the track. And it really raises SR if you can stay out of the wall.

In the back of my mind, I've always wanted a short oval in GT. I hope I'm not let down. I've never tried one out so this might be a hit or miss type deal for me based on whether it meets my expectations or not. Do you think it's a layout made for racing or is it a bit more flexible than that?

Tough track, doesn't really take talent compared to the car

I can't access the forum and the bug report too. Forum doesn't even load, while bug tracker, when load, appears empty with no workable button to create any report.

It's basically Bristol. I think in the Gr.3 cars with a lot of downforce and without tuning flexibility (they lock the tunes and BoP in there) it's difficult to have close racing.

But I like it, personally. It reminds me a little bit of the old Motegi oval that we had on GT4, but the differences on each end of the track are less extreme.

In the bug tracker, try clicking "My Projects" and then GT Sport should pop up. Click that and then the list should populate.

Oh I m soooo ready for the Beta to finally hit EU. Changed all the springs on my T500RS pedals and got me a PS4pro.

There was discussion about it last night, but there IS still ghosting in DR rooms B&C, it just happened twice at Tokyo just now. It just seems to be less frequent than in D&E lobbies.

EDIT: Kust realized there are a few D rated drivers in here, could have been some of them.

So the US beta sign up occured on march 10 then it went live 17th march (one week) the EU sign up announcement was released apr 5 is it fair to assume the EU beta (ph.2) will go live tomorrow?

I would be nice, but on a Wednesday?

Fair call i'm just trying to stay hyped!

So I'vd been using Northern Isle to complete my driving workouts, and my quickest Gr.3 was the Ferrari 458 which I struggled to get anything quicker than a 14.35 second lap in. Today I ended up getting the VW GTI VGT Gr.3 and even though it looks like an ugly duckling to me, I tried it out and after roughly ten laps, ran a 14.263! Even more impressive, I took almost .030 off of @Doodle's time, which I was nowhere even close to earlier.

Also cool to see a few GTP'ers in the top ten. 👍

Now if only I cluld get the Mercedes AMG GT Gr.3...

You can call me european - but i find it a bit amusing people competing on a tiny 14 sec oval timetrial..

Dont get me wrong - I think Nascar is great on ovals, but mostly because of the interaction between the drivers and between the cars. Its a tactical game. 👍

 

[Sharpie]

You are most certainly not alone. All I think about is this:


Every. Single. Time.

Hahaha yes that is it .

Bring on phase two of the Beta. I can't wait any longer - hopefully we'll drive on the new tracks shown in the latest advertisements. PD have to let us now...

That's if Australia get access

 

[ScottPuss20]

I'm pretty sure we will, because there's no such thing as Sony Interactive Entertainment Australia. We are part of Sony Interactive Entertainment Europe, and I highly doubt Australia is exempt. I'm guessing that we will receive codes either tomorrow or on Thursday.

 

[Gogga]

Well its Tuesday, I get Ps4 update 4.55 but no GT Sport Beta

Come on guys..... oh the anxiety

It's killing me! I think it will come Friday for eu or Saturday morning for us. I'm positive Australia will get it I bet very few people will sign up so hopefully we'll get a gig

 

[ApexDrift123]

Just signed up . Fingers crossed I get picked.

 

[Lord Protector]

it's amusing how many people are so impatiently waiting for the codes to arrive and yet the forums are empty-messaged pretty much I know many of you are reloading this page all day long just like me

 

[hankolerd]

A certain someone has piped up saying new content previously not shown will be coming to the sport mode of the beta after a patch today.

 

[TetsuKobura]

Question: How is the Corvette Gr 3 car? I just got it earlier today, but haven't gotten an opportunity to test it on the ring.
