people having trouble with the redbull event i find it helpful to drive in first person feel like im more precise with steering and feel more in control try it goodluck.
FFS PD, you could at least let us finish a lap of this BS
I use joystick and is impossible for me driving the Red Bull to get gold, or just bronze. I don’t want to spend hours trying it.
The deltawing ’12 with a proper tune at death walley. Welcome!
Damn that RedBull thing. “The real driving simulator”… yes, with fictional car put there by companies in order to advertise themselves. Really, this direction GT seems to have taken both with RedBull and with “Vision” is terrible.
For the Redbull itself, I only drove it in the GoodWood festival, and it’s terrible. I don’t own a wheel for my PS3, and the loss in precision introduced by driving with a controller seems to be somewhat proportional to the speed. In that case, I couldn’t even get to the fourth corner half of the times I played that. No hope of golding that (as I did with every other event of the series, without much effort).
Seriously, if I wanted to play with an unrealistic car which goes 0-200km/h in 5 seconds and comes with infinite downforce, I’d have played F-Zero. Really can’t believe this glorious, wonderful game series is destroying itself with its own hands.
No wonder, if you only drove the car at Goodwood. Do a bit of practice and you’ll gold the event easily.
Yes, I know I could Gold that. The matter is, “why?”. I found the Audi Quattro test at Goodwood quite challenging, but that was fine. In the end, I was trying to go faster with that actual car. With the RedBull, it was one of the rare occasions when, playing GT6, I felt like “hey, it’s only a videogame, no connection to reality”. When I feel this playing GT, I stop playing. I don’t find motivation to spend my time trying to pass a completely made-up challenge.
Don’t know why, I presume it’s just because when I play GT I want to feel like it was me in a real car driving in a real track, and not me wasting time in front of a TV screen. And I suspect not to be the only one.
I golded it on a DS3. And beat the gold requirement by 18 seconds. Don’t give up, and don’t balk. And PD DID say they were kicking up the difficulty for this set and the next set.
Lol, you never heard of practice makes perfect, I golded the redbull event on the DS3 :)
For the red bull event, I found it fastest with the X2011, good luck.
Really? I would’ve went with te 2014 because it handles the best and on this track, handling is more important than speed.
Death Valley is on December time, by the way. The sun is lower than normal, and sunset and sunrise is at about the same time as the real Death Valley in December.
That’s pretty cool. I do remember them saying that this sort of thing would be accurate on certain tracks. And the stars as well. Crazy attention to detail
What parts came in tank car? Wtf?
Tires?
Heavy duty armor plating and some concealed weaponry
That fricking red bull event…
It rains about a minute in and ends 20 seconds after the switchback.
What tire should be used?
Stick with RH. If you’re capable, that is. Use IW tires otherwise.
