Ca 100 000.
Not joking actually.
Thats the number of code commits since the original release date.

Think they will actually stick to the release date this time?

From the recent videos, it does look like a lot of things have been improved.

Looks finished to me, just polishing now

Is the 'Never Forget Spengler' trophy anything to do with Bruno Spengler's win from pole to checkered flag for BMW in the 2012 DTM season?

 

[SynGamer]

So have the trophies been confirmed for WMD members, but not publicly posted? Either way, I'm really enjoying everyone's guesses

EDIT: and I believe we're officially less than a month away from release since February only has 28 days???

 

[DrJustice]

^ Yes, the full list is confirmed. However, I think there's more or less an unspoken agreement of letting it be shrouded in a little mystery for now

[Cobra_GT500]

So im curious if there will be a 24 hour endurance trophy

Rock Around the Clock?

 

[ukfan758]

So are the descriptions of the trophies supposed to be kept secret or because of NDA's?

 

[wowbaggerBR]

No, they wont.

Now you don't need to come here every day asking the same thing.

 

[Wolfman_UK]

Surely, never forget Spengler will be to beat a ghost car in a time trial! Spengler being Egon Spengler from Ghostbusters whose actor, Harold Ramis, died last year.

Or am I being too geeky?

Hm, judging from this video (build 935) AI still seems to be pretty bad. And DRS is also not working correctly. Looks like it still needs a lot of work :/

Drs works fine for the player. Yes the ai has it on but I believe there working on that.
The ai would appear to be too easy for the guy. when set properly they can create good battles. For instance my level is around 90 it lowers slightly for certain tracks but for me at that level their good.

Unless your there while he plays the game it's unfair to judge certain aspects as these are totally adjustable.

 

[Cobra_GT500]

whats the highest the AI can go up to?

Haven't played to but most sims go up to 120% some go to 150% or 200%

100.
However this remind me of the spinal tap advert for amps as theirs went to 11 rather than 10 so it must be louder.

I personally never understand why it doesn't just go to 100 with that being the most difficult.

I think 100% is to reflect the actual difficulty of the real event. Most games go higher as some professional players may find 100% "Too easy". On most games I race at 90-95% but I will try PCARS at 100% to see how I do against the AI then scale it til I am competitive with them

That still doesn't justify the scaling though.
The only reason why they do it is to make the player feel better. 110% could be same as 70 percent in another game; but which value makes the player feel better when asked what level of difficulty they play?

Well, I suppose there's that. I don't mind as long as I can scale it so it's challenging but not extremely hard.

Has anyone tried it on 100? I'd like to see how hard it is also is the difficulty scaled the same way on pc on ps4. I'd like to have AI competitive enough to see them fighting back for the position they lost if I overtook them.

I want it so I have to properly race to win. If I can win easily it isn't fun. Will test it at Brands Hatch (A track I know pretty well) in GT3 cars and scale it til the AI are close to where I am.

Of course it is the same on all platforms, why should it be different and why should they invest the unnecessary extra work?

Certainly someone asked this before, but will the game have some sort of livery editor or allow the use of custom liveries?

Liveries made in Photoshop can be imported into the PC version, consoles get nothing in terms of an editor.
