Does the button box work on ps4?

Yup they are basically cut out usb keyboards so the work fine. I was thinking of building one myself too

 

[ozwheels]

Doe anyone know if the livery pack 3 was only for the group 5 ford?

I have 4 rainbow six beta codes if anybody wants one.

 

[Mini Stiggy]

I also have 4 Rainbow 6 codes. Beta was extended untill Sunday.

It must be nice.

@Skaankypuppy you should make a community on PSN so that we can talk, post setups, and say when practice rooms are up. There a lot better than group chats and you can disable community notifications separately from your messages.

And if we create one, lets keep that free from the nonsense that's in the other chat on psn. Strictly championship talk.

Edit: I'll take a code if you still have one. Thnx.

Would be easier to make a championship-dedicated forum, really

 

[ozwheels]

The community also has a function where you can make a room for members. I think it's sorta like the gt6 club rooms, but I'm not positive.

I would say that's what this thread would be used for if we had a community. Posting announcements, weather, laps, who's in what room ect. Some other series have communities setup.

 

[Skaankypuppy]

I'll be setting up the community side of things this weekend. I have not looked into it much yet, but didn't want to just cobble something together without a little planning.

It looks like it will help quite a bit to help manage the drivers in the series.

Grrrr, what a difference between a track that you like (Watkins Glen ) and one you don't like spooky Hockyheimring , I can't seem to
find a good laptime on this track for next Sunday race .
Karsten what laptime can you squeeze out off hockenheimring with the BMW M3 GT ?

Join the club man! I'm going backwards with my setup. Going to reset all later and start again from low '37's to not getting out of 1.38's now. My car hates this track. Anyways its all fun enjoying the challenge.

I'm still a bit sick but i plan ti train after dinner today... if you are along join up.

Guess our m3 is a bit of a lemon, but it's so great fun to drive

 

[azidahaka]

1hour in room haven't managed to get a simple question answered after asking 10 times... Better train alone then.

Do we have drop scores skaanky?

Which question Karsten and which room may I know ?
In fact what happened ?
Don't follow you there .

Skaankypuppy ,how many laps for this spooky track would you think ?

 

[azidahaka]

Just asked for split times for I am 3 seconds off pace.

In any case too late for today. Tomorrow is my last chance before the race. A couple of hours tomorrow will have to make the miracle.

Questions for skaanky:
How many laps?
Are we going to use the cut track penalties?

There's a few places where you can get unreasonable penalties....

I couldn't hear you in that party if you were talking.

 

[Skaankypuppy]

@Skaankypuppy

Im not racing this weekend. I have a dinner with colleagues.

OK mate. No worries.

 

[azidahaka]

I couldn't hear you in that party if you were talking.

yay, oh well...

I guess i'm just nervous 'cause i do not have time to train being sick till today, the track has stupid penalties, now my gf is sick and i have to take care for her and race is basically here.

BTW worst track ever for m3 without abs The game seems to choose rolling dices if to penalize t1 apex or wide corner, and the right bend before the final complex and more than all last corner

Hope i won't get DSQ at the end of the race

I agree with you 100% about the stupid penalties, but unfortunately if penalties are turned off then so are false starts. Seems to be a major oversight in the 4 year development of the game. Makes you wonder how much time was put into the AI and how little time was put into online.

Oh my, non penalized jump starts T_T...

I guess i'll have no chances to finish the race, expecially around 20th lap there are specific place where i know i'l be getting penalties over and over and be DSQ.

Well, let's see if in the last few hours i got today i can improve the situation. How many laps? any word on this?

maybe be a bit more carefull when your tires are gone in those corners

when on long tracks like the nord/le mans for a long race i get it when penalties are off,.. but in races like this league they should be on to prevent corner cutting and stuff

Are we going to use the cut track penalties? No, due to false start penalties not applying

The penalties thing is a potential issue, but it is what it is at the moment. Until they implement a ghosted car for people picking up penalties it will be a case of being aware if someone is coming back from off track, they are likely carrying a penalty and so will not be accelerating.

Like Oz said, with penalties turned off, false starts can be made without penalty.

Tyres will be abused around this track, near the end they will be really worn out and cornering will be reduced, so less speed must be carried into bends. It will be possibly better to get in a grab a fresh set of tyres if they are wearing out that much, as losing 5 seconds of more a lap would be made up after a few laps.

I might try mediums or hards, but they are slower race tyres, but may last the distance.

Race distance will be 20 laps, light cloud for both.

Yes off track penalties are to prevent corner cutting and the are harsh on this track. On three occasions last night over two laps i was bumped wide the first one a 10sec penalty the other two 5sec's. 20+sec's lost in two laps. On that experience I still say penalties need to be on.

But please people on Sunday the race is not won on the first or second lap. Remember the sharp hairpin at the end of the long straight if you are not ahead of your competitor it will end in tears. All I'm saying is don't be a

This track is not like Watkins Glen it has really heavy braking areas. On that note I wish all of you guy's the best for Sunday.

 

[Goruk]

Yes, i´ve had a race with a Portuguese group and that corner was dramatic on the first couple of laps.
And don´t forget, if you slightly touch a car on the braking zone, both of you will go straight to the wall.

I tuned my ABS-less M3 with particular care for not being a danger in the massive brake zones. Makes me slower but car is more predictable and i'm pretty sure i won't hit anyone

But the pace... >_> Let's say i'll root for some pileups at that hairpin you mentioned.

Is it too late to sign up?

I will put your na\me down as a reserve, there will be at least one driver missing this weekend, so a spot should be available.
