Marko is one of the cleanest drivers out there. I have to say tho, i got punted and pushed wide a lot in that race. My pace wasnt good enough, i had little time to warm up for the event and my qualifying was a disaster.

Really rough race pace and contact wise. Good job from you tho.

Yea, you're usually up in front so I figured something was off. Onto the next race though!
 
I always wonder how some drivers have an A/S or S/S rating for how they drive.
Just had a FIA Manufacturers race, was in 5th and somebody just smashed me into the barrier, even himself, and it looked intentional because i overtook him/her a few laps before.
Then, I get a message saying 'noob.'
What a funny game
 
Just scored my first Sport mode win by 2.8 seconds. Am proud of myself :D

BOP has seriously hurt the Group 3 RCZ car :(. I've never seen so many cars just pull away from me even though I'm in their slipstream lol.
 
I decided to buy a McLaren 650S GT3 yesterday, just for something different. Getting sick of winning useless vehicles. I took it out to Brands Hatch with the intention of doing a couple laps, but I ended up doing 56:lol: My first lap stood for about 7 laps before I beat it, then I beat it two times after that. My time on lap 20 was stonking, and I didn't beat it for another 36 laps. Even then, I only bettered it by 0.58 of a second. If I combined all my fastest sector times, I would do a 1:23.386, almost a second faster than my time of 1:24.114!:lol: It's not often that I spend more than one hour with car on one track.
 
Does anyone have any idea when the next update/DLC cars will come? I'm undecided whether to buy new cars with the prize money, or save up and buy when the DLC cars come

Cheers

Within the month, but expect Polyphony to release it at the later half of this month, knowing their reputation to bring it almost beyond their deadlines.
 
Talk about timing. I got basic GT Sport for my birthday last week from Amazon but they sent me a foreign version. To my luck when I set up the return I was able to by the limited edition for the same price of $42.98. Game came yesterday and I just checked Amazon and is back up to $69.00. Ha! Happy birthday to me! Haven’t had a chance to play yet but just wanted to share.
 
How do you run fast times with the cayman? it has such long gears. im not used to use the first and second, is that my problem maybe? I like the looks of it and its stability, but im also slow in it :P
 
So I am doing GT League, I beat all the Beginner, Amateur, and Professional races but the Endurance races are locked. I guess the only other thing of relevance would be that I am level 29. Any reason why the endurance races are locked?

Need to be level 30 to unlock them.

If you mean compared to other Gr4 cars, you don't, it's incredibly slow compared to them.
 
Anyone know the deal with Mission Challenge 6-1
Northern Isle Festival: 4
Gold is 27.300
I was reasonably happy with a mid 24 without too much trouble.
Then I looked at the Ranking Board and the fastest on there is 12.298
How on earth can anyone complete it in 12?
 
You know GTS is lacking new tracks when your brother passes behind you, looks at the screen and asks: "Why don't you play other track?".

This happened today as I was driving around Kyoto for the Daily Race B leaderboard.

I love Sport Mode but it's a disappointment to see some daily combos. Especially since I only drive the 10 lap races. I suspect tomorrow we'll see Dragon Trail again...That or Suzuka.

If I was asked this in GT6 it would be "Because Tsukuba is the best track." :sly: I drove that and, to a lesser extent, Fuji/Motegi way too much, I miss them a lot.
 
As time has gone by, more tracks definitely feels like the most important thing right now. There are only a handful of cars that I even use, mostly because I only feel like doing so many races in a day. I don't really bounce between cars for every race. I already have more options than I know what to do with. More cars is great for fun and choices, but then they'll probably mess up the BoP more frequently. We really need tracks though. Even night or wet variations of some tracks we already have would be better than nothing.

Beyond that, I'd really like to see them surface more of your Sport mode statistics. Like average finishing position, average qualifying position, which track you have the most mileage on, number of clean races, or whatever. You can choose to make this private of course. How about a cross-region tab for practice/qualifying leaderboards? FIA points tabs should be Overall (actual worldwide, cross-region), Regional (your account region), National (your country), Friends, and Division I suppose? (your DR rank.)

I'd like it if they kept track of whatever your personal fastest lap ever was on a specific course within Gr3 or Gr4 cars. And it would display that to me on the race start screen within Sport mode. Because I don't go sit in Time Trial mode, like, ever.

This is all UI stuff so I don't think it'd be too crazy and probably wouldn't take away from track/car development time.
 
Can someone please give me the procedure for eliminating the Auto-messaging during Sport races? While I understand Polyphony Digital wants to keep a peaceful environment in the lobbies, I don't want anybody speaking on my behalf. In fact, I don't think it's even legal to post messages under somebody else's profile. That's identity theft. What the heck are they thinking?

go to your profile setting. you can even write your own words.
 
Does anyone have experience with those trigger extenders, or similar ones? I think I will give them a try, and hopefully for smoother and more linear acceleration and braking.


Not needed for DS4, as the triggers are already quite good; not as good as Xbox One, but certainly far better than DS3.

DS4 triggers already have enough grip and travel for gradual control, whereas DS3's weren't as precise.
