GT5 Update 2.09

LoL 25 mpg bad. Only in the world where 180 HP is fast. I get excited when my stuff get over 20 mpg. ;)





You endurance saved guys. If you quit race and restart is the fuel issue still present.

is there something that you can use to calculate the fuel economy of your cars?

My notes:

HSV is a lot better than before, now I can actually stomach the sound of the thing... Also rolled it online in a Trial Mountain race, appears you can finally do that (in doing so, my game froze, but then fixed itself.)


EDIT: Viewed the replay, it does NOT show my car rolling - only going on two wheels before it froze and fixed itself. No idea what is going on.

the hsv sounds way better now

To those of you with a PS 3D Display, I didn't notice any improvements in 3D, do you? Any recommended settings? Thanks.

I thought it looked better. Seemed like less ghosting but I also need to play with the settings to get more depth.

My problem is I can't get both 3D and my buttkicker to work at the same time. It won't let me activate the 3D if I'm using the BK gamer and 3D will get sacrificed for tactile most of the time.

Well after 2 to 3 month without playing. (I´m playing Planetside 2 Beta on PC and some more games)
I must say that it feels a little bit better than I remembered. At least in the replay I saw the car that "jumps" a little bit more which means that something has changed in the suspension. (probably, I am not 100% sure)

About offline in my case, I had one of the best races against IA ever today at Nürburgring Nordschleife.
IA was setted to 10, car HSV-010, Gearbox top speed to 319km/h (at the straight I got 281km/h which to me looks realistic and the car feels as it should, using the 6 gears), No aids, real feel, tyre degradation and fuel, ABS 1 (because I forgot to use it at 0), Tyre: Racing Hard. And 2 laps because I wanted to test.

I won at the very last corner and not sure if it is just me but the AI behaves "better" than before. I noticed that when I tried to pass them, they actually blocked me without using brakes or slowing down with no sense. (remember when you were close to them and they were like afraid of you and lift off the gas to let you pass? Well now I noticed that they keep going and when you pass them, they try to pass you again and fast)

This actually surprised me because I remember that when you passed the AI, they never tried to even follow you or pass...but this time when I passed them and wanted to recover the correct line, they literally put the car inside the curve or in one place to try to pass me.
At the end of Nürburgring before the straight at those curves, it was amazing how the AI paid me back and then I had to do it again. Also during the straight we were head to head until the latest curves. It tried to pass me again and almost made me loose control but I had the inside of the latest curve so I could win.

(cool story bro...but it was cool since I stopped playing and then went back and this happened...I recorded the race too, haha)

Is this other of those "placebo" effects or the AI seems to be a little bit "better"? Not faster but less idiotic at the time you try to pass them.

I think thats just specific to nurb and la sarthe, they are still dopey on other tracks.

I've noticed that the interior sounds are really much different from exterior ones... more than usually is on GT5. Any other GT5 cars have so different sounds between inside/exterior views?
Click to expand...
Yeah i noticed this on the touring cars like for example the R33, it sounds much closer to a "touring car" now inside, but outside is still a bit odd..

I agree, the 3D effect seems to be less profound with the settings I had before (96/5, setup for bumper view). However, with these settings the amount of ghosting is now the same in cockpit view. Also, 3D now is actually enjoyable at night. Before I had to revert to 2D to be able to see enough at e.g. SSR5-night.

Does it make much difference to the feel of the game and your lap times between 3D and 2D because of the drop to half the frame rate?

No, the drop in frame rate is not noticeable for me. Going from 1080p to 720p is a bit of a bummer though.
 
I am having a major problem, when I drive my Countach 25th, I cannot hear the car at all unless I go into dash view, can someone please help? :mad:

Infact, I can't hear any of my cars, I can hear the AIs. :ill:

Check your center channel. I've been playing once and had all car audio cut out except in cockpit view; and after panicking and running around looking for stuff on Google, it turns out my front center speaker just came unplugged.

I noticed a difference right away when i jumped into the cockpit view. Not only are you closer to the steering wheel. But i believe the camera is a bit higher as well. It is much more enjoyable now. The car sounds fantastic!

I don't use cockpit view but it is possible that the update somehow changed the menu settings that you normally use to a closer/wider view. That kind of thing has happened before with updates, worth looking into to see if your settings are the same while the view has changed.

I've checked the settings. Thye are still the same. They have definitely tweaked the cockpit view of the HSV. Check that side by side comparison picture. You can see the difference.

Ummmm, note your original mileage, got to practice mode at SSRX, set it up for a A-Spec One Make Race, 20 laps(maybe more) turn on fuel and tire ware, drive till you run out of gas (if you need to change tires DO NOT ADD FUEL!) As soon as you run out, go exit the race and check your mileage. Divide the mileage by the fuel used should be 100L, I don't know why they don't use gallons when we select miles for measurement.

end of run miles-original miles= miles driven
miles driven/fuel used= fuel mileage

Good Luck and Good Racing :cheers:

Or you could run a set number of free run laps on desired track, because mileage should be dependent on the track, go in for a pit stop and record the number of liters it recommends putting in the tank and divide that number by the number of laps ran. There is your liters per lap. You can then calculate liters needed for an entire race.
 
Its pretty clear this is where everyone is discussing the new 2.09. I have a serious problem after the update. None of the weather / time change track load on my PS3 anymore online or offline. The game just freezes half way and i have to use the PS button to quit out and even then the PS3 has to hard reboot itself.

Please of there is anyone that is having this problem we need to get the work out if its the patch...
