I noticed many GTR drivers have figure out that if the "drift" the first and last turns and only touch the wall with their rear corner of the car (to slow them down) they don't get a penalty. I've seen this in almost every race I've been in there. Also they have figured out they can use you as a brake as long as they use the rear of their car to hit you. Basically it's the same penalty trigger. if you hit anything with your front bumper you get one, ht anything anywhere else you get nothing.

It's frustrating. Cheaters will find a way to cheat regardless. Especially on a mickey mouse circuit like HSR where you can never go off track really.

Makes sense that if PD were going to give an unfair advantage to one of the 3 cars it would be the GT-R. :sly:

It works for all 3 cars. It's just the GTR is the easiest for those who want to cheat to drift and bounce off walls. The 430 and Corvette take some skill to hold in a drift and recover from bouncing the wall.
 
That's odd because touching the barrier with the back of the car in the Vette in an Arcade Time Trial is a definite penalty. And I would be surprised if the penalty system is different between Arcade Time Trials and actual races.
 
hope to see you guys online then...You'll usually see me on HSR with a Z06 or a F430. I'll usually be on 15 30 45 00. PSN is GTP_peeweegary

Have you seen the title of this thread?

with the 10 min schedule we have 6 races in a hour.

See you on the track :)
 
I am supposed to be in a race here at this very moment but I can't enter the race. The screen is just scrolling around showing me nice views of the track whilst everyone else has a race.

Yes, I had that one a few nights ago - bizarre! I watched it in a trance for a few minutes then had to restart the PS3 to get rid of it

If you wait, the race ends and you get taken back to the screen that lets you enter a race.

You can see the other racers go round from time to time. It's a shame you can't watch properly.
 
I was on last night, had some awesome close races with some lads on here with no contact at all, one time coming second by 0.001 seconds to third

I remember racing you. It was close and fun.
 
I've done a 1'14 in the F430 without any effort. Not sure what I can get it down to. No idea what lap times I do in the races either, I never look!
 
I ran a few laps of testing Monday evening and hit easy mid 12's in the F430 and about a second slower in the vette. Only ran 10 laps or so in each though so may be possible to go a lot faster than that. I didn't bother testing the GTR.

The vette is fast, but a lot more challenging to hit consistently fast laps in.... doesn't seem to be as much feedback through the G25 of when the rears lose grip post the update.
 
I can get into the 1.12's sometimes but mid 13' to high 14's is more normal for me in a GT-R. That's when I'm not doing a 1.17 that is!
 
ok, so it seems that the f430 is the fastest. (?) I did yesterday (~5laps) 1'11.9xx in the f430 (very high)
 
I can do:
F430 - 1.12 high / 1.13
GTR - 1.13/1.14
Z06 - Never used it much, only a few races/laps and never did a decent one, so didn't notice the times
 
I've done high 1'13'' / low 1'14'' with the Z06. But it can certainly go faster with a more skilled driver (e.g. Z28 was using it yesterday and he was certainly faster than me).

And to think, RBE definitely wasn't there the other day.:scared: They also changed the penalties, I found a wall rider earlier who wasn't getting penalties.:( And not one person has gotten a penalty for ramming me since the update.:grumpy:

Yeah... I'm sad to say that HSR is not completely free of wall riders. Even tough the new penalty system improved it a lot, yesterday I've spotted a F430 going flat out on turn 2, wall riding, getting penalized, but by the end of the turn, the penalty was over, so he didn't loose much time (if any).

Ironically, if you try to break, make a small mistake, and slightly touch the wall, the penalty is proportionally much worse, since your car will be much slower.

So here are two suggestions:
1) What about making penalties incremental? The first time 4s, the second time 8s, etc.
2) Forcing penalized cars to slow down to, say... 50 mph. during the 4s of penalty.
 
Touching a wall should definitely be handled differently from riding the wall. I for one would hate to be the person in charge of the penalty system for this game - its a thankless job in which you will never be able to make everyone happy. If I were that guy, I'd be pushing for private rooms to take the focus off of my team. ;)
 
If I were that guy, I'd slit my wrists because I was totally unable to do my job right.
