revbouncer 1,431 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I updated mine last night. Had a quick look and shoved it back in the box. It's really one of the most crap racing games I've ever played. The other cars are on rails. Whenever there is contact, off you go and they just drive off. I ran a NASCAR race and went the other way at full speed, head on into 1 & it didn't budge while I was sent to oblivion. Plus the tire squealing noises drive me nuts! The 1st person view is crap. no instruments pfft. Plus you have to be a qualified mechanic to set the bloody cars up. I've played plenty of F1 games where set ups are important, but it's ridiculous in this game. You spend more time setting cars up than racing them. Then when you go to load the NASCAR track for a NASCAR race, you find your the only NASCAR in the field WTF? Anyway if you're enjoying it then kudos to you my friend, gimme a gta online race over their lobbies anyday. 1 Rev's Races Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JustHatched 12,103 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I haven't played GT since 2 or 3. I know it was on PS2 The funniest thing about this particular signature is that by the time you realise it doesn't say anything it's to late to stop reading it.

The setups are very complex, I only change the gearbox and slip diff, my F1 setups rarely change that much from year to year. I know what you mean about the other cars on single player mode, I changed them to aggressive driving which has helped make things better. Never tried a NASCAR race but that is really stupid for there to be no other NASCAR's on the track. The are instruments such as wipers, headlights, horn etc but you must assign a button to them, by default they are not set, the triggers is something worth changing to accelerate and brake IMO.

ssracingn2 935 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 I got GT6 tonight. If you think I am bad at gta5 racing then imagine it 3 times worst for simulation games. Same rules apply I try to race clean and have fun. 1 http://www.gta-stats.com/player/image/medium_1.units_0.platI_1.plat_2/custom.stats_races_ratio.stats_dm_ratio.crime_kills_players_headshots.crime_kdr_players.other_vehicles_speed/ssracingn2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidCore89 7,402 Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 (edited) I was lucky enough to have another pack of 1 million CR for free. I bought them with the DLC game ages ago and I used them all up but it let me install the credits again through 'purchased items'.

ssracingn2 935 Posted June 1, 2014 Share Posted June 1, 2014 (edited) Yeah didn't recognize it at the time but I got the 15th anniversary edition for $39.99 and it came with a bunch of free cars so that was a nice surprise. All downloaded cars came crew blue.

Nice, I missed out of those because it was too expensive when it was released, I think that was £60. Those cars are not available anywhere else, they are 100% exclusive to those with the Anniversary Edition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 (edited) Had a good time on GT6 today, my skills are coming back slowly. Playing a racing simulator right after the arcade style racing of GTAO is no small task. No room for error as the Welshman puts the mighty '08 BMW M5 into a full throttle powerslide right through the corner while overtaking the Ford Mustang Boss 302 to take 1st position on the final lap and eventually the race win. GT6 gives me the UK flag, no option to change and I doubt there is a Wales flag available. Edited June 1, 2014 by DavidCore89 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We will have to get together on this some time and you can show me how to get er done. It's harder to do with traction control on and skid management on. The systems kick in and throw you out of control so I like to keep them off but that makes powerful cars very unpredictable under acceleration unless control pad users assign accelerate and brake to the L & R triggers so it can be managed a lot more. To be honest the M5 loves to go sideways, sometimes it's easier than keeping it straight 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidCore89 7,402 Posted June 1, 2014 Author Share Posted June 1, 2014 It's probably my favorite car over the past 10 years and the car I would buy if I had the cash, disguised as a family car, remove the stupid EU 155MPH limiter and it's good for 200MPH with no boy racer tuning required. I was lucky enough to take a short ride in the passenger of one of these, pinned to the seat the whole time I forgot you're a BMW aficionado Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there are several E46, E9x, and F32 M4 Yeah I noticed that when I looked for the original E30, although no doubt the E36 will be the better car on a racetrack, US and EU spec.
