If you're asking of it is harder on a pad than gt6 I would say that no it isn't, however with differing physics between the two games you will need to adjust your driving style as I certainly had to. The game feels much more realistic in comparison to gt6 in my opinion.
What about the servers? Stability, etc...
 
Well I'll be, the driving seems clean, or at least between drivers. The inclusion of a safety rating seems to be keeping people in check. 👍
Netcode seems pretty decent right now, not too much spastic nonsense, still not perfect though. Hope this beta brings improvements on that front.

10mbit download and less than 1mbit upload haha
Right, mine is even slower than that, but you were also streaming whilst playing so I could expect similar results. :)
 
If people have questions about the beta I am willing to answer as many questions that I can, I spent a large amount of time playing and streaming the game over the weekend, if I am unavailable to answer a question my streams are also available on archive at quarterbreed1998.
Hi! :D

When will you be streaming GTS again?
 
watching a stream right now, running Big Willow

if the race time is 6 in the evening, why is the sun low in the eastern sky? :lol:
.

Codemasters did the same thing in DiRT Rally, at Pikes Peak ... I told Hatward about it, he told the artists, and they were like, hmmmm ... they based their 'afternoon' scenario and much imagery from Ari Vatinen 'Climbdance' film, but the footage they thought was sunset, was actually from dawn practice runs

the ghosting seems to be set that way, to to try to keep the online open races free from 'corner bombers', and impacts with spun/stalled cars .... at low relative speeds, bumping and pushing is felt, not ghosted

1) Are you able to take screenshots with the Share button? If so, can you share some? (.png preferably)

2) Not really a question, but do you have that thin black frame around the screen in menus too? You can fix it by going in PS4 > Settings > Sound and Screen > Display Area (I tried explain it to Marvin but he didn't listen lol)

Thank you

Well someone ghosted right through Marvin at Willow!

see 1:58
 
Its either that or go you get constant crashing. It only turns on when it thinks you are going to crash, not racing side by side.
In the end we can abuse it, it s fine if when you become ghost, you lose SR
Otherwise the guy keep doing it and go to match clean racer, and doing the same thing..so fail system
Or Ghost for only lose control to prevent bumping, and not in this case ( of the video) who preventing collision but have the full control of the car, at full speed, it s an easy overtaking cheat
 
Considering that is a work in progress beta, maybe the game is allready done in some aspects, I can say only what I've seen change from the first show ,at the Copper Box Event, the game is ok, increasing of skills and fairplay points , online ,offline, differents cars, more tyres's choice, the sound is improved, but the turbo fiufiuuu sound of Bugatti Vision GT, Mithsubishi Lancer Gr.3, Subaru Impreza WRX Gr.3 and probably the new Bmw M6 GT3 (that has a big turbo sound IRL) are lost in the upgrading beta that PD has shown off in the past months, not the case of the M6 GT3, but i hope that the final version will solve some of this little aspects, another thing is the time lap display, that was (in the early betas) in the bottom/center of the screen, quickly back in the middle high of the screen, now also with the new sponsor on it, so i hope that they give us the possibility to adjust the displays options.:bowdown:
 
WTF! The goshtening should not exist at all. Why you have a rating system then? It should only exist when the car is not moving at all (to avoid idiots in the middle of the road that you can't penalize without a ban system, and being GT a product for millions of people, you can't have a report system).
 
Well look at the rear view mirror when the guy ghosted Marvin, he was just driving normally, it doesn't look like he was actively trying to ram through Marvin at all.

I can see it happening in just novice level races, but in a top level races, it should not be there.
