GT7 Daily Race Discussion

The game registered me as having done an overtake in the yellow because I was steaming past it in the wrong direction. Ah well 😂

If nothing else, a reassurance that the machines aren't quite ready to take over just yet.

Well I wouldn't trust it to give me heart surgery that's for damn sure.

Four or five years ahead it won't even be asking for permission anymore...😬😆

I hope you mean that your car had done a 180, and you went past backwards - because if you were actually going the wrong direction on the track and it gave you a yellow-flag penalty, I'd, well, I don't know what, but I guess I'd want to see the replay for sure!!

EDIT: Also, there's nothing worse than starting Pole position, doing something stupid on T4, and ending up P15 (last) behind P14 by 8 seconds. Lonely feeling, back there.

Keeping CRB at Interlagos is not easy at all, despite preemptive action taking caution, the whiplash ping-pong start stop section in the middle has so many touches between cars all the time, despite people’s best intentions. Not a great fan...

I've had 8 CRB's in 25 races there, and my races have been all over the place. I will admit I got a CRB a couple of races ago that I don't think I deserved - I know I tapped someone, but no complaints from me.

I think that PD needs to sort out their penalty system immediately. They should not be taking away SR points for any contact that doesn’t draw a penalty, but they should be penalizing contact that causes other drivers to lose their driving line. Some contact is just part of racing and isn’t illegal, and some of it is desirable like bump drafting, and none of this should be penalized. This week at Monza has been murder for no real reason other than to hide their indecision about how to enforce penalties.

“Let them all make contact and let the SR sort them out” is not a viable option and needs to cha he as soon as possible! Some other threads talk about how only 4% of GT7 players do Sport Mode races, but if GT7 wants to remain viable for another few years they’re going to have to come to terms with the fact that people aren’t going to be coming back week after week for single player content! But if they don’t want to kill the participation of return players, they’re going to have to decide on an equitable penalty system that doesn’t kill our SR for totally legal driving!

Sorry! Just my daily rant!

I have a question - not specifically for you, but anyone who posts about this subject, and I don't mean to be disrespectful.

Does anyone think anything they say here is going to affect PD at all? I'm serious. Because I can't imagine it making any kind of difference. I'd be shocked as hell if anyone from PD even read any of this, let alone listened to anyone's suggestions.

I'd love to be wrong. And actually, I'm hoping someone can chime in with knowledge that PD actually does read these posts. But it really just seems like howling at the moon.

Which I'm all for, by the way - howling at the moon. I do it all the time. I just don't expect the moon to care one way or the other. ;p So don't let me stop you from howling - I'm just curious if anyone thinks it could actually make a difference.

Makes absolutely no difference except venting make you feel better

Doing some NextRaceB prologue
I tried Mustang, Brz also but still I like 911 more

basically this yeah. I don't expect PD to have anyone lurking forums looking at what we're complaining about though it would be cool if they did

 

[samppa_944]

In my opinion we just had the best Daily Race A so far in GT7, great fun. I managed to take my second win of the week after an awesome battle for the win. Good way to end the week. Not much else to say, enjoy the video. 🏁

I was a little quicker in the Brz. I felt like the 911 really jumped around in the corners unpredictably at times.

Granted I only did a dozen laps so there is still a lot to learn.

I think race C in my DR rankings is going to be who can stay on the track the longest.

Well I wouldn't trust it to give me heart surgery that's for damn sure.

The company I work for makes robotic surgical equipment. It’s truly clever stuff.

I was hoping to get more race B done today, as I’d been doing okay in that, but my body has other plans.

Been sick as anything and spent all day in bed. Doubt I could drive anything in a straight line at the moment.

Hopefully this will be a quick bug and I’ll be on form again later in the week. Might just skip next week though…

I would really like to see the penalty system to be sorted. Last weekends race in the World Series at Spa i was ahead by about 0.5 seconds at La Source when the car behind divebombed and rammed me in the side when i got through the corner. in real live likely a 10 second stop and go penalty, in the game...nothing.
Evil do-er rewarded with third place, victim facing the wrong way of the track. nice one!

Hell, in this game you get a wall colliding penalty after being rammed of track and the perpetrator drives happely along without any punishment. Beyond believe that PD is still not able to get simple things like that sorted out!

I cannot enter race C Because I cannot turn off the nitro on the SF19

 

[Raptor013]

So daily Race C is broken. They've prohibited Nitrous for a pair of cars that run it as designed that can't be disabled.

Great work PD.

Yeah, I don't have NOS and can't get in LOL

Ok I'm not the only one, thought I was stupid and couldn't figure out how to turn it off, even tried the rental car, no go

 

[RacinLei]

Finaly pd hase a reason after over 1 year to fix the sf19 bop problem 🤣🤣🤣

 

[Raptor013]

Yeah, it's the Push to Pass option that the SF cars have built into them. GT7 labels it as Nitrous given it works the same way as NOS does.

 

[jrbabbitt]

PD fixed this one QUICK, it works now

 

[GrumpyOldMan]

How did they not know this was a problem? Don't they even try out these daily races before they push them out to us?

 

[LVS_1986]

PD fixed this one QUICK, it works now

And what about the weather? Is it dry or wet?

 

[RacinLei]

They would knew about it if pd would listen

PD please Fix Sf19 Bop

The problem is: We open a lobby set Bop, choose Sf19 and we cant choose it because the game say nitros prohibited. But there is no nos to install or even uninstall. Please Pd fix this. This problem is there since release.

[Raptor013]

Dry for the one race I did. Hence tge Softs and Mediums required.

 

[RacingGrandpa]

All they had to do was set the race to Nitro allowed. Doesn't take long

 

[Dairyworker]

Didn't do any races last week and only had one or two sessions with the ra27 or whatever it's called. I just couldn't find a groove with that car, and didn't like either of the other two races on offer. This week looks to be much the same. 3 races i have next to zero interest in..... not sure that i ever went two weeks without racing in gtsport

 

[Fezzik]

Gained 8 positions. Nicely done mate!

I wish I could take credit for all those and say it was some daredevil overtaking, but 6 of those spots were gifts from people spinning off / running wide / stalling off the rolling start. At my level (and especially on the Interlagos Ice Rink), just stay on track and good things will happen.

That's the thing. When you just keep it clean and fair, you definitly will gain positions during a Daily Race.
