***The Official Gran Turismo 5 Thread***

id agree with the ign tbh, the ai is bad in this game, not as bad as previous versions but compared to forza its miles behind - they simply dont care that your on the track and wont break appropriately or move and of course they never make mistakes.

Clearly you haven't played this enough. I've seen people go off all the time. The Top Gear Test Track with the VW Vans for example, someone always spins off or goes mental and smashes all the cones over, same with Go Karting, someone always crashes and they fight each other for positions etc. You must be playing Arcade mode on retard settings.
 
I like trying to beat people's times and get my name on the board so has this got global lap times for each track because i sure i can't find it ?? :(
 
Mine wasn't....

Was late to class too. The flat tyre excuse always comes in handy.

Should have been in Belfast with the other 10 of us in game getting it at midnight (guy at the front of the line had a massive wad of tenners for the expensive edition) HMV were open too but looked dead (and they moved the music upstairs so I couldnt get a cd at the same time...) :cool:

no they dont, iv played all the races you mentioned, infact more then once. and not once have i seen anyone go off the track or spin out.
excellent use of the word retard there btw...you almost passed at covering up your true anger at someone putting a negative on this truly 'special' game.
 
I like the fact you have to change oil etc and maintain the car for performance to remain top, repair physical damage etc... really starting to like this game more and more!
 
Does it still charge you 50credits to give it a wash?

Oh and have they sorted out the depreciation a bit better? I hate buying some obscure car for a single make race, only to find out it was a slightly different spec of the same obscure car i needed, but now have no money to buy it because it only lets me sell the first car for 1/10th of the price i paid.

Umm yes they do, unless you're saying that I'm lying.

Yeah, don't worry, I felt stupid last night because I couldn't find them either..

The short answer is, at the moment they don't exist.. We are all pretty confidently assuming that they will be enabled on the servers shortly, it's too big a thing to be missing..

PD/Sony are just killing us on the communication with things like this, I mean we've heard nothing, I checked the manual etc, no mention, and people are tweeting Kaz about it, but no joy so far..
 
Well gave the game quite a few hours last night, did some of the licenses, played with the arcade mode, GT mode etc and to be perfectly honest the one biggest gripe I had over the game when compared to Forza 3 was the sodding screen tear.

Everything else I can live with. Not to go into mass detail, some areas of the game are much better then Forza 3, some areas not so good… Oh and the standard cars compared to premium look rubbish, but that’s the premium models showing the standard models up. I’d have rather they had 350 odd premium and left the standard models out.

And honestly, I’ve now sold my xbox360 anyhow. It RROD and I got a free replacement from MS and sold it whilst it was still under warranty and working, so I can’t play Forza 3 anymore to compare. GT5 can, and will fill that gap for me that Forza left behind.

Its just the screen tearing that makes me lament Forza 3. Everything else in GT5 is for me good enough.

Yes, I know the game has faults. Still, eventually I’ll put too many hours into it like I did Forza 3, get bored of it and this time next year I doubt I’ll be playing it anymore looking forward to GT6. Or buying another 360 for Forza 4.

360 owners have Forza 3, PS3 owners now finally have GT5. Simple. Or like me, you get any console to play these racing games.. lol
 
Quite a lot of negative comments in here, which isn't good for my brain since I'm a huge fan. Hopefully I can ignore most of the niggles and enjoy it still.

The only thing I wanna know is, is it better than Prologue? :p

On other news; I must be the unluckiest guy alive, since my post office haven't got my copy of GT5! STILL :( - they attempted to deliver it 11am yesterday and didn't leave a calling card.
 
No... Sorry Ive found something worse. Noticed it whilst I was doing track time session yesterday. Would be nice to find out whether or not this is just happening to me.

Everytime you complete (the moment you cross the start/finish line) a lap in time trail mode the game stalls for a whole second to load the ghost of the previous lap. This never happened to me in GT5P.

Has this happened to any of you guys?
 
My copy from Shopto wasn't delivered yesterday. Hopefully today. If not I may pick a copy up from a walk in store and send the Shopto copy back.
 
Just had a quick go on Monza in the M3, and the screen tearing when using the in-car view is quite bad. Seems fine when using the bumper cam.

And how the hell do you zoom when watching replays?

I was going to do the same thing, but I wasn't sure of Shop To's refund process and it doesn't say anywhere on their site.

Ordered from Shop To, but it was delivered..... well attempted. It's just RM have it still, so I didn't bother buying a copy.
 
Cannot... restart... championship... race... murder... death... kill.

Also, anyone one won the Elise Top Gear race yet? lol, that really is a joke.
