I couldn't replicate the car's performance using mod menus on PC, but I did get a small update, and if this is the case..

My Banshee might be changing after all. Just that I want it to have a 1:03 lap time on Cutting Coroners GP at least.

Yeah, GUN1T123 isn't for everyone. His *actual* racing videos are impressive, and his world record videos are mind-blowing.
I don't enjoy his videos but I love racing against him. He's a totally different person when he isn't recording a video.

I would imagine he is, after watching his insanely fast Turismo R battles.

Slightly unrelated, but I want to know which car is more consistent? I know the T20 is faster around a track, but is the Osiris easier to use and get solid lap times every time?
 
In a competition level, both the T20 and Osiris are very similar in the handling department.

The only way to tell a difference is if your Osiris lacks a spoiler. That, and the Osiris has a very slight advantage in a large straight. Like Broughy says: personal preference, unlike the Bati/Akuma feud.

I haven't driven both (heck, I technically haven't driven either since I've only used the T20 on last-gen) so I can't back this up, but I think Broughy mentioned that the Osiris was faster than the Zentorno but much more difficult to get good laps with, much like the Elegy RH8 compared to the Jester Racecar. I don't remember the T20 having these consistency issues, but I think it's still a little less consistent than the Zentorno.

I'd say use the Zentorno to be consistent, the T20 to be as fast as possible, and the Osiris if you absolutely have to beat someone down a straight.

Thanks guys. I had been wondering since I've seen some people using the Osiris a little more than the T20 in some of the more serious racing groups. I assumed they were easier to use. One thing I know about the Zentorno is that despite it having lots of grip, it's easier to get a little oversteer in it than the rest of the top supers (T20, Osiris, Entity XF, Turismo R). You need to push it further and drive more aggressively to get the most out of it.
 
From my experience, the Osiris is much easier to drive than the T20 and Zentorno. I'm actually gonna say the Osiris should be the car to use if you want to be consistent, and the T20 if you want those slightly better lap times at the cost of being slightly more difficult to drive.

Could you go into more detail why they are different? Does one have trouble putting the power down, or do you need to really adapt your driving style?

It feels like that the Osiris is balanced a little more towards understeer. I dunno really, it's not something I really thought about in greater detail.
 
How much do you guys want to bet that Broughy already has a video prepared for the Albany Valor so he doesn't have to rush a video on Valentine's Day? I know he did something similar with the Tampa for the 2016 Festive Surprise.
 
I'm pretty sure I encountered the first major weapon glitch or the hacks have found their way to the PS4.

I was in a lobby with just a friend, when a third person arrived.
Said person was in the city and he disappeared from the map and out the playerlist but there was no notification that he left. We were at the hippy camp in the north, and within seconds he was close to us firing rpgs like a machinegun and it looked like he had an aimbot, because as soon as I spawned I could see rockets coming down at me.

I managed to enable passive mode to try and see if I could get close to him, to see his name but he disappeared when my buddy also managed to activate his passive mode.

I have immediately informed Rockstar about it because if next gen gets hacked like this I think I'm done with the game.

I hate to say this, but being that I know and play with modders on the PS3, I've been told by them that people have already jailbroken the 4 and that there are already mods out for it. I'm not sure if that was a modder or a teleport glitch of some sorts, but that sounds awfully similar to the former from my experiences with dealing with scumbag modders.
 
Has anyone else seen the people that have parts of their body invisible? Sometimes it's just their arms or chest or something but a few times I've found people that have had everything but their head and gun invisible. It's not impossible to kill them with auto aim, but it's definitely a lot harder.


If I encounter somebody playing unfairly, I try not to fight back as I will normally get slaughtered since I'm at a disadvantage, making me mad and the asshole happy.
 
A lot of the invisible outfits probably came from the glitches that were on the PS3 and 360 and then got transferred over the the 4 and One when the accounts were transferred. It's the same thing with those stupid 1,000+ modded accounts. I don't have an issue with people having them, but it does get irritating when someone who sucks at the game in particular uses one of them to try to not suck.
 
I wish Se7ensins did a better job at preserving the community. People post invisible character glitches all the time. I'll admit, I've done the "armless character" glitch at least twice, but that was only to just have a little fun and no one got harmed by it. These full- or almost full invisible characters give glitchers a major advantage, especially in long-distance sniper battles. The same people that abuse these glitches are also the ones who find ways to make themselves invincible. I'm in full support of money glitches since this game has become a huge grindfest, but Se7ensins needs to help the community out and stop all of the people who contribute nothing but toxicity to this game.
 
I've seen one player that was half invisible, seemed to have unlimited ammo and invincibility. I went off radar and hit him at really high speed, and drove straight in to a wall with him sitting on my bumper. He turned around and shot me to pieces. He was gone after I'd respawned, until he came at me with ridiculously high speed. I checked after that, and yes, he was lvl 8000. Reported him and went to another lobby
 
Your problem with players with unfair advantages is that you need to learn to predict their actions.

I used to get them kill me the normal way with me pretending to try to do the same, and after being killed at least 3 or 4 times, I can tell how they're going to try to kill me next time and start doing something about it.

You'll get a huge advantage by doing so. You also need to let them know that you don't want a fight, kill them and escape, repeat if they get closer, they'll eventually get bored and go to engage another player.

Also, RPG's; they'll call you mean words, but it's better to have advantages that you're supposed to have.
 
I was waiting for the 4th guy to join the "Pacific Standard - Bikes" but then i lost connection to the host and went to free roam. After i got out of the "host's apartment", i suddenly noticed this...
