Managed to squeeze back into a Gold time... but for how long.Damn. I've been edged out to a Silver. Time to get back into the Civic!
Thanks for the detailed answer! Sounds like it is a case of practicing.@KCR my experience with Dualsense. Allow me to go back long in time, when I was driving Colin McRae Rally, I was using steering wheel from Microsoft. Life took some path and I was not playing for like 20 years. In the beginning of year I got ps4 pro and started playing GT Sport, on controller. I realised that after I used steering wheel for some time, even if it was long time ago, getting used to stick on controller, was a challenge for me. One thing in particular was when I hit some curve and I sense I am losing rear end, I kinda had hard time to correct it with stick. I realised that gt sport had also motion steering and decided to try. It took some time and I said to myself, it's like going to gym, first work out will not make me fit, but I need to repeat it many times.
With this long intro, I am not going back to stick and for now not considering getting steering wheel either. I got ps5.
I find it easier for me to angle curve and correct steering when needed. I can drive 1000km a day and not get tired (read again what I said about going to gym 😁)
I do however need to point out, there is a bug in motion sensor steering!!! In some combos of track and car, example Fuji Time trial with SF19, steering just get shaky for some reason. Try if you want, use cockpit view, that was previous time trial, maybe it works for you, but it looks like it's bug, but we know PD, impossible to send a bug report.
I hope I answered your question, even if it was a bit long, but I felt background story contributed to explanation.
Much of the time can be gained in the first section and by not getting on the power too early and washing out. Easy to gain a couple of seconds just from momentum and stringing together a few sections.Y’all are aliens lol, I feel like I’m close to maxing out at 2:16. I figure I’m losing time in either the first set of corners or maybe in the twisty bit after the first tunnel.
Also, seems you can apply aero parts to your car but I’m pretty sure BoP removes the effect, right? Downforce is set to default values so I imagine they’re just cosmetic then.
Can you give a link ?Back in gold, got 2:14:2 on a lap I was kind of happy with - no big mistake, pretty smooth.
Then I watched P1 replay... Clearly I have no clue what I am doing.
The GT website has placeholders for upcoming ones, next week is the Skyline Super Silhouette on Red Bull Ring - looking forward to it!
Then Gr4 on Dragon Tail - a bit of an overused combo I think.
Then Gr2 on Interlagos.
Can you give a link ?
Awesome. Looking forward to those. The 2mil each will be nice.
There's a bugDon't really like these low powered street cars on street tires, but whatever. Figure I can get at least 250k or maybe million if I spend some time. Ran a dozen or so laps and got it down to under 2:20. Stopped and backed out of time trial (no rage quit or turning off the game or anything). Says my record is 4:56.630. WTF? What a waste of my time. Do these people even play their own game? If they did, they would know what's wrong. Somebody at PD owes me 250,000 credits.
WARNING!!!
Don't go into any other race before you do the time trial. There's a bug. I did the time trial, then did Race A. My Race A qualifying time remained as "my current best" and new time trial times did not update my actual current best time. And, no, unfortunately, your race A qualifying time from race A is not used as your current best ...at least not that I have seen so far.
Why abs weak ? All top players use default. You losing time because of it.Only half a tenth to get to the 2:11.XXX Zone... But for the life of me I simply can't even get close to it anymore. Another 60km or so today and the best I could was getting my car like half of its hood ahead of my own best Ghost time until the final chicane to just bottle it and lose like 2 tenths in it...
I think this is going to be my final time, which is enough to be in the top 100. 2:12.051

Actually... Since yesterday that I changed it to weak and my time has actually improved... o_OWhy abs weak ? All top players use default. You losing time because of it.
Well it's easier than two previous TT. I am C driver, controller motion sensor automatic transmission and I got gold, so I am sure you can get it too.First, compliments for all those putting in gold times!
I am a mere B rated player on a controller. Yet I put in a 2:16:xx on my second lap, a second better than the time needed for silver.
Is this easy money earned, or am I missing something?
The inconsiderate sob! Why is he making credits for us harder 😅L Shooter is now at 2:10.878!!
Gold: 2:14.804
Silver: 2:17.421
Bronze: 2:23.965
Insecure overachiever 👍 🤪I managed to improve only a few hundredths, 2:12.355.
Let's see if I can get in the Top 200 with this time. Currently at 189.
You can!Son of a b....
I need to find 0.042 seconds worth of pace to get back into Gold.
