Yes but you did overtake 4 cars on the first two corners so the AI wasn't too conpetative. Is that good or bad?

It's a varied grid. Like any professional race you have the great drivers and the ... not so great drivers

Yeah, I’ve seen a few of the AI miss their braking points by braking too late or early, as well as those catching the grass or rumble strips and spinning off onto the grass.

I have the gold steel book edition with 1.5mil credits, 6 extra cars, helmet and other in game bits coming for £47.99 including a £2 prime discount from the rainforest

Simplygames doing base games for £39.85 - dont.think.they a competitor, so hopefully not in trouble for naming them

Took a couple of races to figure out that "auto counter steering" was mucking me about. Turned that off and things improved massively for me

The McLaren Vision GT is absolutely awesome! And the Bugatti Vision GT reminds me of the Suzuki Escudo Pikes Peak back in GT2. So much power, spinning all four wheels and absolutely no front end grip whatsoever

GT Sport AI = Credible Opponents.... Forza 7 AI = Infuriating Obstacles , so much so that when I play offline I just run solo laps in different cars, the F7 AI bothers me that much, how could they get it so wrong?

I've got this on download for when I get home tonight and I am quite looking forward to trying it out!

oh

Shame its closing so early today, thought they might of extended it slightly with the launch issues they had.

I have to say, I've played several hours online and not had a single bad experience with foul play.

Could F1 spec cars be coming to GTS?

A strong dose of Gran Turismo Sport is in order, I think...

Going to be ordering a GIMX dongle at midnight when I get paid so can use my DFGT on PS4. Stock apparently available as of tomorrow.

Was looking forward to trying this, not played GT since PS1.
Why a limited time demo, and why not span it over a weekend at least :mad:

no chance to try it during the week, like a lot of other people I'm sure.

Yeah A full weekend would have been ace

ok, might actually pre-order this. Previously been put off by all the anti GT carping on here - can usually see thought his kind of nonsense but the lack of single player also put me off. However, the feedback so far from the open beta has started to turn things around. Love a good racer - might get the wallet out later

Thing is, you can just go and set up a custom race to a set number of laps or time, select a car, select a track you fancy, time of day, what penalties you want on, tyre and fuel usage, whether to make it more arcade with a boost for cars at the back, start position, cars on track, etc.., and race the AI at a difficulty you choose. You'll be rewarded for it like you would in a career mode race.

At least it saves the boring grind from getting your first car - a Demio/something equally **** - and pointlessly going through the motions in the Sunday Driver Leagues.
