What an awesome patch.

I wonder what that means. If would be great if you could watch replays from each cars view and not just from the cinematic view.
Popped GT5 back in for the new round of seasonals and damn! Cool stuff. Now I can tell everyone how I completed the Red Bull Challenge with a DS3 before they gave in to the pussies!
And also, I can already see the performance points thing pissing people off... it's inaccurate. My Veyron is not faster than my Zonda and my 908 HDi is not faster than the Minolta. What's interesting is that the system is taking wear and tear into account. My f2007 was at 899 before Suzuka and the custom track and is at 895 now. I did the oil change so the hp was not affected, but the chassis has been subjected to an additional 20 laps worth of racing and that knocked it down.

PLease, check the following, I'm not at home for at lest 8 more hours:
Go to options > Multiscreen options.
Set your console to Server mode.
Does change of FOW settings (Frame Border/Curvature) while in fake Client mode (only ONE monitor attached) changes in-car position and FOW (as in Forza 3?)
Thanx in adv!
Yes! you can adjust the field of view now. I need to play around with settings to see if there is any improvement from the default positions. (doubt I'd use this trick though...) default view is near perfect.amar212 said:
Edit: seems that you can only narrow the field of view from the default position... so no crazy "wide" view or overly "stretched" view like you could with Forza 3.

Bronze times are now almost 10 seconds slower.
anyone try fucking around with the CONTROLLER STEERING SENSITIVITY that is no in the driving options menu? I feel like I've put so much time in, fucking around with it now would be risky but... I wonder how much this will bridge the gap between wheel and pad on something like the x1.

This patch is huge and great and all, but is there finally a profile for the G27?

ZOMG can't wait to get home : )
I RM'd a subaru for the seasonal and while fumbling around with the tuning discovered a ballast and power % setting. Never noticed it with my vette... Why isn't the horse power % control thingie optional for all cars? I wouldn't have to worry about the engine upgrades that cannot be uninstalled

Just spent 12.5mil on F2007
I just loved the first time I played it without stability control and it felt like a (fucking amazing) drift comp. Powering through some of those banked corners at a ridiculous angle felt sublime.jamaniek said:Eifel 102C is full of blind and tricky corners. It's not that easy to win in the F10. I'm gonna need some practice on this one
Dead Man said:
It's been known that it was like that in the run up to GT5's launch, duder.
Not that it isn't bad, but the EXP is nothing to sneeze at unless they finally gave events from level 15 on proper goddamn EXP in B-spec to where leveling up isn't a chore. :|

Don't forget to go to your driver list to "Receive Prizes".
Just got 100K from a couple B-spec races friends have hosted.

Worth every penny. Out of the X1, formula gt and the f2007, I much prefer the Ferrari. It's so much fun to drive. Leave it stock or put it on race softs and crank up the downforce all the way on front and rear for warp like cornering performance. It's the only car where I feel confident I'm faster in cockpit mode than the bumper cam too.

Yeah, it's free cash and exp so long as you are online (unless you can challenge offline drivers that put up drivers after the update?) for people to challenge you. Kinda like a "Pokemon online" mode. Love it.
Also the Ferrari F1 challenge is waaay too intense for me. I can't control that damn car on Tokyo R246. ARGH. >_< 10 Mill down the drain for this event and I can't get higher than 8th on the first lap before the other cars are ahead of me with 9 down behind me. D:

Holly shit, I just realized this now works with all cars, must have been in the update. All cars now have an option to add ballast and reduce power. That means you can more or less return your cars back to stock stats if you wish to do so after you've bought the weight reduction and engine tuning mods! Someone out there IS listening, lol.

Love the "check mark" next to cars you already own. Makes collecting so much easier / faster.
It is now official that all Bonus Races ("old school" Seasonals) have mandatory SRF (Skid Recovery Force) that can't be disengaged.
Which is pretty much CRAP.
First no restrictions, now mandatory SRF?
For who for God's sake? Like it ain't enough that people who does not want challenge can maxx out HP and drive with all assists without any bonus-penalties and now everybody is forced to damn SRF usage?
I hate SRF. I do not want to drive with SRF. SRF ruined Liceneses for me, making them walk in the park, and now Bonus Races too?
I am not happy about this.

Won the Ferrari Eiffel-challenge with first try The track was pretty cool too! There's one-two ultra tricky uphill corners. I just wish the races were 5 laps instead of 10

Maybe you can race other drivers that are offline in B-spec. I just selected UFRA's online driver.
I guess you need to:
-Update to the patch
-Sign in
-Set a driver to online (if you did it before, unset and then reset them online)
And that's pretty much it. "Leaving the PS3 on" is for the ability to use the remote B-spec through GT Anywhere/GT.com then. Niiiiiice. Time to challenge UFRA and get free money for the both of us.

You're welcome to challenge my driver as well (if I have any set to online that is)TheSeks said:Hohoho!

Edit - reading comprehension skill deteriorating.... I have done none of those things. lol
SUCK IT CAMERON DIAZ. WHERE IS YOUR SUPERGT CAR SKILLS NOW!?
*finally, first online B-spec I win against Goldrusher's level 27 C. Diaz with my level 13 B-spec H. Burger against UFRA's two B-spec drivers in the Monza Aston Martin challenge*
Edit: AHAHAHAHA. B-spec level exp is nothing to sneeze at and it does level your driver.
Niiiiice. Time to get a level 1 and put him online for all comers.
