LVGT was disconnected 2-3 times but eventually got in before qualifying. We started 10 minutes after the listed times, then somebody showed up at the last minute, forgot who it was. In my opinion you have a lot of very young players signed up who've failed to remember their in a series (and probably busy this time of year with high school finals to be starting up.)
Ronin, LastLeaffan, lesoldham, LVGT and somebody else....cant remember. We shortend the race to 30 laps since only 40% of the field showed. I sat and twiddled my thumbs which felt good since I've been playing F1 2010 alot on career mode this week (winning all the race with the Torro Rosso
). Trying to see how dominant I can be with no aids on Legend. I wont buy 2011 b/c the graphics are apparently horrifying.
Anyways the only real accident happend down in the hairpin. Just a silly thing, although I couldnt see what happend being parked a mile away and all. I think lesoldham crashed into the tire barrier I was hiding behind to try and make me bring out a caution (or he could have just made a mistake, dont know.) Anyways I didnt buy that I was in the way seeing as how my safety car had no damage and some tires moved on the little wall thing...
I remember with my Ferrari F1 series I had close to 21 signed up and we'd typically get 7-8 for the race. The seasoned Gran Turismo'ers tend to steer clear of open wheel/F1 stuff. I've never seen guys like Jav race F1.
As a whole GT5 online has diminished over the last couple of months......People are getting sick of the game, it lacks real world tracks. There's not enough road in this game. If we had all 19 F1 circuits, along with test course & all the old GT4 tracks it would be a killer game. But as it is very dry racing the same old tracks.
The course creator is a joke. This game is destined to fall without a LOT more DLC. Spa brought alot of people back in but the excitement has worn off.
I'll turn up an hour or so early tomorrow to iron out any connection issues mate.
Good luck, keep it clean.
