Someone on GTplanet already has it installed. We should find out what's new in the intro.

I would totally skip the intro

If only we had the download URL to speed things up...

Unfortunately, I'm separated from my PS3 at the moment, and probably won't be able to install until tomorrow afternoon.

I spent about 2 hours driving that Red Bull car. 4M credits was just too good to pass up. The acceleration and braking is just insane. Best time I could do is 1:20.

Also, does anyone else with a Driving Force GT or G25/G27 play without force feedback - as in not even plugging in the power supply? I just hate the force feedback implementation because I never get the sense that the wheel is providing the proper subtle feedback. Even though I've tried setting the FF to the lowest setting the juddering and vibration is so silly and over the top that it annoys and hinders me more then it helps. I'd like to be able to feel a slight vibration as I go over the rumble strips, but that doesn't seem possible as the wheel is always in fight mode whenever FF is on. Anyway, I find I drive so much better with it unplugged.

It's one reason why I prefer the Fanatec over the G27 especially the implementation of feedback over rumble strips. At the same time I have my FFB set to high. The "juddering" is much more smoother.

Tried logging into EU PSN account to receive the prompt to update, alas, it doesn't work that way lol.

Still no update in NY!!!

 

[hamchan]

Download has stalled at 22% :-/

 

[luka]

Wait, this is out already? Does it improve the load times significantly? That was literally the only thing that drove me away from the game.

 

[ghostofsparta]

Lies! It's not out in Cali yet. "Server it undergoing maintenance".

I really need to checkout the Fantec. The logitech wheels seem like a toy in comparison. Being able to set your wheel parameters independent of a game seems really appealing.

Cant wait for this to install and I am off the next 2 days...

 

[Niks]

It's just a shame that you aren't using FFB since in GT5 is nothing short of wonderful.

G27 has its benefits too. I prefer its shifter and button layout and feel. D-pad on the P911TS is nice because it's on the wheel itself but feels like it can break off. Rev lights on G27 is very nice too. Personally I feel both have advantages and disadvantages but if I had to choose just one it would be the Fanatec for the smoothness.

The new Thrustmaster wheel is also belt driven too so if you are PS3/PC only you might want to look into that too. Just gotta wait for that shifter...

 

[Heshinsi]

Downloading. Can't fucking wait

 

[ghostofsparta]

oh shizzzzz!

Following the thread too, can't wait to see/hear more about the "AI temperament".

 

[h3ro]

Just started. Timer says 7 Mins for the full update.

<3 you Fios.

 

[Radec]

So this is the new GTR...

(from GTP)

 

[Wario64]

server still under maintenance lol

 

[Toxa]

starting download

 

[Wario64]

Uhm, the intro is the same

 

[h3ro]

Latest updates from GTP:

Visible damage can be turned on and off in arcade settings menu.

You can adjust the AI temperament from 0 to 10 in the same menu.

New tyre load indicator. Can be turned off in settings.

Only new photomode location is the Nascar pitstop.

Torque curve accounted for/reduced when using power limiter.

Load times seem reduced.

Endurance race "suspend" option added as you enter the pits.

Weather can be set in practise (track settings) -
- Weather at race start (%)
- Weather Changeability (# 0-10)
- Surface Water at Race Start (%)

In your garage when you were creating thumbnails for your cars, you had to do them all 1 by 1. Now there's a create thumbnail for all cars button.

The speculated 'i' icon on the GT homescreen is labelled as 'News'.

3 set ups per car - including differing installed parts. Set the car up when on a "spec sheet". Change "spec sheet" and do new setup. Switch between them in a sub menu in setting screen. Neat summary of setup given.

Quick 10 minute download, installing already - hopefully will get some sleep tonight.

Got to level 40 B spec and 27 A spec and not touched it for a few months - time to get back into GT5.

Fuck the interior view on standard cars are awesome.

Are they all different?

 

[ghibli99]

Downloading... @ 15% right now on a slow 7Mbps connection. Looking forward to checking things out. Was the interface overhauled or is it just the load times that "seem better"?
