Gran Turismo 5 [PS3]

Yes, there are a total of 17 in the entire game that can be race-modified.

Which is pretty poor, considering there are about 200 premium cars.

Oh, Ok. Thanks for the info Nifty

 

[Dale C.]

I'll be on tonight, but just for the record, i'll be playing GT mode offline

 

[fick]

Not going to be available on Sunday It's her indoors birthday meal at 6pm and I doubt I'll be home in time. Shame as I was really looking forward to it.

Sorry guys.

Yeah I work weekends so count me out soz. Plus, I have fuck all money and my garage is mega super lame so far.

Perhaps we should consider a 'banger racing' club as an occasional alternative...

tried building my money back up tonight - got it back to 45k but got tired of the slug fest to get it there. Perhaps a good saturday will get me to that 110 mark. Seems all the football matches are at 10 and one at 12:30 (Virginia time) so leaves some room in my morning.

Just play B-Spec for a while. You can leave it on in the background while you do other shit like surf the web, and visit this glorious corner of the internet. Plus the money you earn goes to your total, PLUS you get prize cars aswell It's win win really, if you need th cash of course. I'm going through it now just to get the golds in all the events, plus I didn't really feel like racing the other night, so I just let Eddie Velasquez do the work for me.

It's a good idea and one that Nifty and I have already discussed. A "run what U brung" style event, preferably with the older US muscle cars for some lairy, full contact fun!

A break from the serious racing events, if you will.

Only issue I have will B spec is that mu driver is sooo cool, I have to constantly push him to pass anyone. He's level 19, with good stats, but if I leave him to his own devices he'll just cruise around the track.

:laugh: My main drivers character is just a little above halfway line, towards hot. It's pretty good really, as I wouldn;t want him too hot, otherwise he might lose all his strength and whatnot. It is frustrating when they just let people undertake them on corners and stuff, really does my head in. Plus they stick to the racing line religiously man, there should be more slack when it comes to that.

Has anyone completed the special Geoff Gordon shit? Apart from getting really pissed off with the 'overtake on the outside' challenge, which incidentally I just cannot fucking do, I'm sick of the stupid license tests and stupid and frankly pointless specials.

The off line career sucks so bad that I really am beginning to get fucked off with it again. If they races varied, or tracks, then racing competitions over again would be okay, but there are so few and it soon gets very stale.

This makes me all the more annoyed that I'll miss the opening online race :folarm:

 

[Nifty1Pound50]

Haven't done the final Advanced challenge - other than that, done them all.

The outside line one was a bitch.

 

[abu97]

I've only completed the AMG driving academy on beginner and moderate and got bronze on both at a time of 1min 41secs. I hardly pay attention to them and the licenses. And why do you have to start of 12th on the races in seasonal events. Its impossible to catch up to the first car and on average, I'm always 20 seconds behind him considering he is a race car. Find it ludicrous that you get 110,000 pounds for finishing last for some races

 

[abu97]

Oh yeah, sorry for double posting but is there a way to start a brand new fresh GT life as I've messed my one up

Delete your saved game?

You will lose all your cars and everything, though.

No way to restart just the race progression without scrapping the lot.

I would recommend against it - don't see how it could possibly be messed up?

 

[abu97]

I've progressed the game way too fast because of my dumb-witted brother who plays with all assists on. I wanted to take the game one step at a time and learn how to drive properly but the complete opposite happened

 

[fick]

Are you and your brother not set up as separate users?

 

[Dale C.]

That's the whole point man, it's like life. Get over your mistakes and come back stronger. No point quitting.

 

[abu97]

For some reason he has an account but never uses it because he can't be arsed to start a game from the beginning. He's just an ignorant prick that I tend to avoid all the time.

Dale C., I agree with that statement but the part come back stronger is useless for this incident as it'd mean carry on with the game already half-finished after owning it for just over 2 weeks which would take the addiction out of the game

 

[Dale C.]

I didn't see your comment before I made the post. In your case, definitely start again :lol: I can't STAND people playing my game for me, it really irritates me. If my brother did one race for me, i'd have to start again man. I'm seriously irritated by things like that.

As for your brother, just tell him to play Arcade mode :\
