Nice one on the TG Track Dup!

I had to use Traction control on that one, I did it originally with Anti Skid Rhubarb, twas a breeze, but then just had 1 notch of traction, 1 notch of ABS, and it was a big fight, I only undertook the final car on lap 2 at Gambon..

Having driven an Elise 111R on a small track myself, all I can think of is that in GT, they must have fitted the cheapest Linglong tyres ever, it's got tons more grip then that, but it was mega entertaining.. and quite a high after just completing the Bus's moments later!!

Apologies if you have mentioned (long thread) - what control method are you using?
 
Not happy :o

I don't know. The only other things that were available were awful Japanese things. Roger Moore thrashed one in For Your Eyes Only, I thought I could do the same...

I bought a MR2 next time around.

At least you know where it is! Time to man up and break in.

That image does make me chuckle. :D

I'm failing to see the finny side! They deliver 7am to 7pm. I get it sent to work as no-one will be at home. 5pm comes I finish work, I give them a ring to see if I can get an estimated time but they just say any time till 7pm. 7pm comes and goes, 7.30 I ring again they say it's probably been delayed but will certainly be delivered. 7.45, still nothing so I give up and go home. Waste of my evening and no GT5 :(
 
Yes! 6th attempt on the beginner Top Gear Special event. Twice I went in crazy on the last corner trying to overtake first place and got DQ'd then managed to take first place on Hammerhead on the second lap. Joy!

I've been there with Parcel Force a couple of times in the the last month. The second time I wasted a day and ended up driving 18 miles to their depot.

I'd consider having a moan at the place you bought it from. Maybe a delivery refund could be in order.
 
How the hell did this game take as long as it did to come out.

Ridiculous load times even with the full install, elevator music, the usual GT bumper cars, PS2 models on a lot of the cars.... jesus wept...

I'm totally speechless, this is laughable...

When it looks good, it looks incredible the rest of the time ... meh :confused:
 
These load times are driving (har har) me crazy :( Collecting 9 or so rewards from the "car delivery" tab, after "using" each reward I have to wait 2-3 minutes to return to the main home screen :/ The game really is fugly in places sadly, I am shocked it took them so long:confused:

Yes I'll be getting in contact with them tomorrow as it's not acceptable. I'd be fine if they said they couldn't manage to deliver it, but promising me it will be there soon is bs!
 
FOR SLOW LOAD TIMES, DISCONNECT FROM THE NETWORK!

Servers are probably getting hammered. I'm disconnected so having no issues.
