Less than 24 hours until the big one.
Yeah, hopefully we'll get the PP thing before the NGRL on Saturday.

Speaking of which, will you join us on Saturday? I think I saw you sign up in the NGRL thread, but haven't seen you since.
 
I finally unlocked God-Mode. :D

anybody else hear a drumming sfx when using this car?

it sounds like somebody finger drumming on a cardboard box when on the throttle, it also happens during the replay with the trackside cameras. is this a trait of this alfa or have they ballsed it up royally?

either way it's annoying.

Playing this game with a dual shock is like having training wheels attached to your car, it's too damn easy.

Was at a friends tonight messing about, tried TGTT Lotus challenge, gold first time.

I have yet to get even a bronze with the dfgt

That's how I got my gold there. There is quite a few events that I find the DS3 to be easier to deal with. Wheel better on the average though.
 
Finally got off my lazy ass and grinded to 20m

Feels Good Man :D

Now I can finally buy those colored X2010's thats been bugging me since I turned 40 last month :/

I'm doubting there will be seasonals since the patch is coming tonight.
I'm hoping the patch will add some great new features, but not going to hold my breath. Other than what we know, which is very little....they haven't teased us on anything so there really might not be all that much added.

Hoping for the best...

Servers are down for a couple of hours in the next few hours, I'm guessing 1.60 and the new seasonals will be up after that

fingers x'd

Oh SNAP.

PD doesn't release patch notes until after the patch has gone live correct? Unlike pretty much every other developer.

Yeah, they don't really let us know until a few days later and it's only a few details. :/

I hope the seasonals are 1 million and exp again. :/ Didn't do more than two sets of this weeks seasonals because... why bother?

Yeah, this week's seasonals were lame.

I liked the high credit and XP seasonals even though they were one-time only.

It was just nice to have a feeling of a "break" from the normal GT style grinds. Instead, this week's seasonals were just like "oh hai, back to grinding for you!"

:(

What I've noticed so far is multiple selection of stuff by holding L1 and sorting cars by Perfomance Points. Servers are down still.

Edit: You can select tires/tyres, Positioning and Quantity of extra weight, engine power tuning, individual gear settings are no longer greyed out in car settings now.

Sorry Ace and Wknd, it wouldn't let me continue being host.

And you were being a great host unlike me. No worries man.

The X2010 has 977PP and there's a Prize stat under B-Spec pilots.

Hm, little better. Do we have a definitive list from PD yet or do we have to guess/test?

PD? Patch notes?

Psh-shaw! To the guessing mobile with you!

Patch notes are usually in the News menu, but servers are still down. A-Spec events don't seem to have PP restrictions. Maybe it's only for Seasonal/Online events?

So it has a 'My Courses' option for lounge lobbies - but my one created course isn't showing (first had it shared - then tried it unshared and favorited).

Courses can be set to 'voted' now.

Automatic Race Start Cycle option added.

Added Performance Point restrictions to races (unrestricted or 250-1000).

Tire wear/fuel can be enabled or disabled.

Remote Races added.

Hm, some of those actually sound orright. Why is the poster so excited about power limiting, though? Does that mean you can (effectively) use an X1 in a race limited to 200bhp?

Been there for a patch or two now (if you mean "users can vote on a course/track in the lobby"). It's a host option.\

No. But it does allow slower cars in the same class/race/league to be "even-steven" with faster car/drivers.

Basically it's a way to self-tweak the car for close races without having to tweak everything.

PATCH OF THE CENTURY

:O

That sounds fantastic! I just hope they go back to the old style of Seasonal events, I liked the big rewards.

Also, a big thanks to captscience for helping me get even closer to my goal of having all the Matte paints. One left to go!

Why must you mock me, Matte Red??

I'm loving the blue checkmarks for the NEW AND USED dealership.

Kaz... Kaz... WHY WASN'T THIS THERE DAY ONE!? MAYBE NOW I WILL CHECK THE USED CAR LOT OFTEN! :D!?

DOES THAT MEAN WE DON'T HAVE TO FAVORITE SHIT ANYMORE????

That or all the cars are in the online dealership instead of just select ones (even though that is big)
