I'll do the stop watch later, but for the first 2 stints until people dropped out of the room i was having major framerate issues, definatley hinders performance as we allready know about it.

 

[Sail IC]

Do we know if the bug is the same in a private lounge?

I have experienced it in private lounge. In fact, the only time I'm sure I had it was in a private lounge with 15 cars in the beginning of October. There was a 1.7s delta doing the stopwatch test on my replay on the initial laps.

 

[twistedfirework]

Here's another thought. Are the glitches always early in in a race? For example, what If we did 10 formation laps. Might be worth a try?

 

[XsApollo]

Well if the possibility of only racing 12 in a room is actually gonna happen then whats gonna happen?
12 people is not many considering there is over 24 of us.
6 gt500's and 6 gt300's aint great for racing either.
Is it possible to run 2 rooms of 12 for each class?
Your qualifying decides if you are in room 1 or 2 for the race.

I'm not able to race today, but obviously do not forget about me for the regular season!

Anyway, you're in PAL, right? So the PAL preseason race was yesterday...

 

[Paginas1]

dude this bug thingy is giving me a headache lol.

on another not I think we may have made the Sub 08 a tad bit too slow now. Just my thoughts I had a quick go in it before race yesterday and I was about 0.5 secs slower in it. I need to test a little bit more

What we are trying to get is every car to have a checkable bhp. Which means ending in a 5. Let us know what you find after testing. It's better we get it right now. 👍
Ideally we don't want to add ballast as standard though. I will have another look when I go ps3 later on.
Anybody else have any thoughts on the gt300 cars?

I think its just the sub 08, its annoying because of its 4wd. Every other car seems to be very close together.

Hey all. I got a NTSC room open pretty much all day. So if you want come on in and practice. I also want to see my connection for holding people. Just in case I need to run to best buy and get a Ethernet cable so i can plug it in directly to the modem.

Nice to read everyone's point of view regarding this issue. Great stuff pointed out. The game has a 16 player online lobby capability so why can't we use that? Why create a game with something that can't be used to its fullest? It irritates me.

Considering GT's popularity, can't PD ask Sony for support? 12 players is boring if we are running mixed class races. We will be actually racing against 5 other cars, as the other 6 are from another class. To give an example, I have been playing BF3 with 24 players for many days and I am yet to experience any lag, or bug or anything weird. And with GT5 anything more than 12, and you can't play.

Wardez pointed out the fact of the earthquake and the tsunami. Yes, I understand it's been hard for them. However, Im pretty sure they have recovered from the disasters or else we wouldn't be having all this DLC and patches. Too bad the patches aren't fixing crap. Yes, they are adding things, but I'm in a position where right now all I care about is having the game run smooth. I dont care about new cars or tracks as much as I care having a smooth online experience. It seems PD has forgotten about this to stop the fanboys' whining for more cars, tracks, features, etc... It's sad really, this game has potential to be the best.

At least, to play it safe, I say we delay the start of the series and do another preaseason to see if things get back to normal. If not, then I'll quit GT5.

Your room has 3 bars but you dont have tire wear/grip reduction set correctly.

you need to open ports from modem for a good conexion

PlayStation Network:
TCP: 80, 443, 5223
UDP: 3478, 3479, 3658

and then for GT5:

Gran Turismo 5

TCP: 80, 443, 5223
UDP: 3478, 3479, 3658, 10070, 50100

Well, you think Kaz is satisfied with the server right now? Didn't think so. But, as a true GT fan from way back when, I'll still be here supporting Kaz and the crew as they do a fantastic job, like always.

Have a good day.

EDIT: fixing room, thanks IforceV8, erickmx. 👍

 

[NEPALII]

I have been playing GT since GT2, and I have always supported PD. Im actually disappointed rather than angry because I want GT5 to be the best and it could be, but there are things that prevent that from happening. I hope they solve the issues. 👍

 

[L_Hamilton]

They will of course, but with time. Patience.

 

[Biffy]

Is that NTSC room still open? I'd like to do a bit of practice in the Denso for a bit.

 

[L_Hamilton]

Yes it is. 👍

Just look how bad the servers are today. This is from the practice event for the upcoming Wurks.ca GTP 24HRS of Nurburgring event next month.
This is a race started with just over ten people, two of them (including I) got black screened so we couldn't even start, this video shows some of the constant lag going in the race featuring drivers from all over the world:



I was attempting to do some practice races with guys from PURE earlier today, only four drivers, and still only I could see one, the rest were blank and they couldn't see us. It was incredible.
Such bad servers today it seems.

 

[GV27]

Anyway, you're in PAL, right? So the PAL preseason race was yesterday...

I know, but I saw so many people talking about an upcoming race, so I thought there would be an extra PAL race or something!

Hope you all had fun, in both races!

Post that on Kaz's twitter or something. Man, this doesn't make me angry. It saddens me, really. Ask freakin Sony for some millions of dollars, yens, whatever currency and upgrade your online servers. Also, that video saddens me with the fact my team didn't make it in time to the racing grid.

 

[harrison1476]

2hrs til connectt time?

 

[CSLACR]

Yes.
