That's a sweet deal. I drove enough Hondas in FM3 to qualify for that easily.

If it makes you guys feel any better, I'll get my LCE on release date and have approximately 4hrs to play it in the next week.

The AI is better, but from what I can tell, they have ZERO side-side vision. Sometimes, right off the line, they change lanes and SLAM into you. They'll also run you right off the road.

Of course they almost never lose speed doing this as they appear to made from Unobtanium and can happily steam roll you at all times. This is why I race fat cars in Forza. Wanna play rough? Mr. Cadillac CTS-V ain't no bitch.

Hummers are great for relieving AI frustration! I got that same Badge just a few mintues ago. I don't think it had anything to do with trading paint.

Lyer posted:So I've managed to claw my way up to R3 without any assists, but can't get the hang of braking without ABS on. Any tips? Am I supposed to ease into the brake? I've tried doing that on the controller, but poo poo goes from nothing > full tilt. Try dropping the brake pressure down to 90%. That allows you more trigger pull before they lock up.

Manual is deceptively ready if you set up the controls right. Just mash a+x/a+b and gain alot of speed and control.

ChocNitty posted:Only thing that depresses me, as time goes on, most of the online players learn every track very well, and know all the best cars and tunes for ever class, and I get last place every race. I haven't played with it much yet, but FM3 had Cyclced Production as an online mode and it was a blast. A cycling set of completely stock cars - everyone is on the same foot, other than skill and track knowledge.

If you're tuning a MR car, I wouldn't suggest moving the brake bias around THAT much or you'll lose a lot of stability in turns, depending on the car, YMMV. You can tune in your own brake balance pretty easily by feeling a car out while trail braking - if the car over-rotates under heaving braking and steering, put some bias in the rear, and vice-versus.

Let go of your feelings Luke! Instead of bein all PRO RACER and poo poo with the kerbs on Maple and running a wheel on them, straddle them completely instead. Works like a charm.

ColdPie posted:Yeah, it's really a shame how short the races are in event mode. Only the championship and regional races are decent length, everything else takes two or three minutes to complete. And configuring your own races is so much more of a pain in the rear end than selecting from a list of premade races. Oh well. I like the longer races, but the Heat races suck rear end. I just smashed these fuckers on 4 laps of Road America, hey lets do it again!

I think they removed the endurance races from the game is because no one (or very few people) WANTED to do them for the career mode, and since you can set up your own endurance races as a private lobby, you're all set.

I always left ABS and TCS (for high power cars) in GT5 cause the tire sound were absolutely SHITTTTTTY. That's 90% of my cues for tire slip issues in FM4.

GodDAMN that Maserati GT4 is gloriously sexy. The GranTurismo, IMO, came out pretty lovely in A (or was it S?) class all race prepped. Just too heavy as a competitive sport coupe. It sounds like God though and you can get it in Matte Black I think the RX8, despite it's "MEH"ness will be a great rent-a-car racer. robotsinmyhead fucked around with this message at 11:01 on Nov 30, 2011 |

Well I'm back up in this FM4 thing after like a 6month hiatus, and I'm kinda revved up (durr) to start a new GTCC spinoff series and I wanted to do a general interest check (I will crosspost this in the GTCC thread and the GTCC forum. I'm thinking: Thursday Nights 7 or 8pm EST. I have a new work schedule that starts at 10pm, so I will be able to host up until about 915, with every other week being off work (I know, it's stupid) Almost Always under B-class. A few B-races, but mostly C and below. Occasional wackiness with top speed cars, etc. Lots of non-gimmicky - but off-balance - spec races like Trucks/SUVs, mandatory RWD swapped into FWD cars, etc. Humorous liveries and dicks expected and appreciated. Focus on making 'middling skill' drivers stay in the pack and running. Focus on 'self-moderation' Very fast drivers will be expected to build cars under the spec or choose statistically less competitive cars. The races will be more about fun than just winning. Tuning for performance will generally be very light or not allowed. I would like to keep people from over-massaging the cars or pushing out newer drivers due to their inability to tune well. This will also serve to minimize tuning time and money so you can whip up 2-3 cars instead of obsessing over 1. Anyway... get at me and tell me what you think.

Cojawfee posted:I too am interested. It should give me a better outlet for my wheel. I like using it, but I'm rubbish at anything above C and below R3. And it seems like we rarely ever do anything below B in GTCC. So now I can use my controller for Wednesday races and be decent, and then use my wheel for the less serious Thursday races. I learned a lot watching him do that laptime thing with James May. Slower in the corner entrance, 100% throttle instead of blipping it on the way out... I got noticeably faster practicing this.
