Will do persian , will be a pleasure to be driving on a different track apart from fuji .

In my other gt500 series before the last update I was running 1 16's on trial mountain.
 
so what track should we race this weekend? Since we postponed fuji and have to go back there when everything works i would very much like a different track. I like fuji, but i'm starting to get a bit bored of it.

I suggest laguna seca as it is one of the track long down on the list, we did rome and cape ring and i'm not really in the mood for a endurance race at nurburgring 24h if we use a lot of time to sort out the lag ;)

edit:

Updated pictures in the op with the actual players and teams

drivers list
team list
leader board for both players and teams

still need real name of maxitsu and wishywish, and wishywish what kind of equipment you use to control your car? We added that to the list.

If you guys don't want to share your real name i just add some random photo models name so if people search they get something nice to look at ;) (list looks a bit unfinished without the names)

Well they did a maintenance before every update and DLC, guess the maintenance is just to make the online servers ready for the new stuff. I don't want to come off as negative, but I seriously doubt it will fix a thing.

I also of course hope it fixes things, but I'm done hoping on things when it comes to PD.
 
Let's just hope and pray


Yep, i am hoping too. I don't believe any praying will work.
Maybe we had bad luck at Fuji :dunce:


I also don't see any list whit things that are gonna be fixed in a patch. So i am affraid Erik could be right.

You guys gonna buy the DLC stuff?
 
I honestly don't like anything in that DLC, but if they manage to fix the online part I'm buying it to give my support to PD, before that I wont buy it.

Seriously, if this doesn't get fixed I decided I move on to some kind of PC sims, I don't need Saturdays with disappointments. I spent to much time and money on my rig to let it die with GT5 ;)
But then I need all the money I can save to build myself a decent computer to run it from :)

I hope they fix it, as GT5 will never grow old on me, but then it need to work. After all, the box GT5 came in said it was compatible for 16players online.. 10 isn't 16.

you can do both you know :)


I am thinking to but a PC too, but still not sure yet. But not necessary for racing though.
 
I know I can do both, or.. I actually know I can't do both. I have a tendency go all in with what I find fun. The eager to become better hangs over me. So if GT5 get a fix I will keep on dedicate my spare time to GT5. If not I'm willing to bet that I'm not alone going away from it. We all have better things to do in our life than stuttering through a game race. Can't call it a simulator as only thing it simulate would be a blown engine ;)
 
Believe it or not, out of all the online races I've done online in the past, I have not had even 1 trial mountain event. So this will be my 1st online event here. I'm looking forward to it.

Yes , raceday Trial Mountain we are ready .

Yes Erik looked very fast yesterday he seems to have a headstart on us here .

See you all on track .

I think I will buy the track just to see if we will finally get drag racing , somehow I doubt it .
 
So to people who have raced on this track before. What's the policy on cutting the yellow striped painted area?

I doubt I be deep into replay checking of this so I like to allow it, but cutting the last chicane and corner 2 should be avoided.
 
As you said erik the final chicane and turn 2 should have 2 wheels on track and not be off road excursions.

That's how it has been played in the past for me in other leagues .
 
wishywish: I managed to remove you from my PSN friend list. I tried to re add you, but no response yet. Could you check it out?

Also we only have 11 people tonight, we should have more people to test this. 11 people is probably not going to challenge the lag. It's not that I love lag, but testing things we know work isn't going to give us any results we could work on.

In addition to what I already done.
Back when I played Unreal Tournament on clanbase.com and won div1 in capture the flag I remember I used the lousy 800x600 resolution because my pc gave me more fps this way. I could run it smooth on max resolution, but I wanted every edge I could get.
I can smoothly run GT5 on 1080p, but I now lowered it to 720p for our testing tonight. I spent a lot of time to adjust the TV after it because it became pretty gaudy. To much colour and to dark.

I have absolutely no idea if this affects the PS3/GT5 at all, but we kinda tested everything that made sense with no results.
 
I've heard turning off the visual damage helps this issue .

I guess its worth a try

I wanted to mention that, visible damage may adds a lot because we are all running premiums.

Yes I forgot to mention it earlier as well , I read about it earlier in the week

Sad that its just speculation .

I will be on for practice in an hour , see you then .

anyone in a practice lounge yt?? would love to join and see the lap times..

I'm as usually online to try figure out stuff, haven't really pushed a good time today. 1:20.169 on medium tyres. Did a 1:19.7 something yesterday. But I need to sort out some tyre wear so I can't really push like a madman. :scared:

I forgot to give my name for the OP = Yoeri. About the yellow area's i was going to ask myself. It seems the AI always seems to avoid it, however i always did drive on it since GT1. For me its all the same though.

Last corner & corner 2 definitely should be avoided!

Oh, about turning visual damage off, i really don't mind. It does not change anything about the experience anyway.
 
I actually think having visual damage off will make for better replays, I know the Xanavi have a bad habit of ruining its spoiler in every race, this thing looks like it plow the tarmac. And I don't think I ever seen the ARTA finish a race without a very broken rear wing :P

Your name added to the drivers list Maxitsu.
 
Sorry guys iam not there Today i wait for the new update.
Its not fun so.
I have try it yesterday and also with 10 people problems.
Sorry guys see you soon.

So you tested it without being online? on my friend list it says you haven't been on for several days?

The point of this was trying to avoid lag, trying different things, not to race to win. Race to fix. I know it's not fun, but sometimes we have to try stuff so we can have fun in the future. I doubt it will be fixed any time soon to be very honest.
You are of course free to do what you want, but this test is pointless if we aren't as many as possible.
