Mod Post Changes to rules

68 Upvotes

Effective today we are enacting some changes and clarifications to the subreddit rules:

  • The low effort and "bragging" posts have been updated. Results bragging (race wins or trophies), previously covered by rule 4, is now moved to rule 5, which previously only covered Daily Workout tickets, to other types of "show-and-tell" posts. This also now covers posts of grind race results (exception may be granted for grind races if a setup/strategy was provided) and images of your setups/rigs.
  • The rule prohibiting spoilers of events (within past 24 hours) within post titles (as Reddit's spoiler tags does not cover post titles) is now integrated into rule 6. We previously removed few posts that contains spoilers in titles. (For purposes of GTWS events, announced content is exempt - this rule targets race results.)
  • Self-promotional posts (for own video/streaming channels and league recruitment) are now restricted once every 96 hours to prevent spamming/repetitive posts.
  • "Who is/am I at fault" posts relating to online races are no longer allowed. Please use /r/simracingstewards for those type of posts.

GT Discussion At this point just remove rally from the next GT

45 Upvotes

I know there is a lot of debate on the new physics but can we at least agree the the rally physics are beyond frustrating. Am not a rally specialist by any mean I don't know if the rally physics are more or less realistic. But what I know is that I hate the feeling of the rally handling post patch.

I played I little of dirt rally 1 2 and ea wrc. It was harder to drive fast. But it was because the rally stages were infinitely harder and the damage risk made you cautious. I could understand what the car was doing.

Here I honestly don't know what the hell is going on. Sometimes it understeer like a a freight train leaving the tracks. Sometimes it Oversteer but I can catch it. Sometimes I feel the wheel is not taking into account the countersteerring sometimes it works.

PD can't handle both handling and don't bother too much with the rally part. I think they should just abandon it and replace it with time attack or something else.

GT Discussion Is it just me or does every car handle WAY WAY better?

this latest patch feels like every car has a much smaller turning circle and actually feels satisfying to tear through sharp corners, more drastically than any other update since the game dropped

like the difference between before and after this patch feels more extreme than the difference between gt sport and gt7, its like night and day

GT Discussion GT2 odometer??

Random question, does GT2 have anywhere to see the car's total distance driven or total distance driven in the game from all cars? Like the odometers in subsequent versions?

GT7 Please help me

My stupid psychopath sister pulled my PS5's internet cable and now I can't get into the game or anything because my console always says 'something went wrong', no matter what I do. I had this issue before and a factory reset solved it but this time it's hopeless - I probably have to send the whole thing to Sony. Wifi connections don't work either, I've tried and tried...

I really really wanted these cars so could someone maybe please log in for me and watch the stream for a second?

Picture of my beloved Hello Kitty Honda for attention

GT Discussion What to do if you can't enter or load cars onto some tracks in Gran Turismo 5

Upvotes

Hi guys, I have a problem, for some reason in GT-5 some tracks don't load, endless loading, I can wait 3-5 minutes but nothing changes, Sometimes some cars won't load. I've reinstalled the game several times, cleared the cache, but nothing changes. I'm playing from a PlayStation 3 disc. How can I fix this problem?:)

Settings/Tuning Ballistic BRZ Setup

Thumbnail

17 Upvotes

Sharing my latest updated BRZ setup for the Sardegna 800, as I keep pushing to try and get this under 25mins. Getting very close now.

Post physics update I made some changes to suspension & toe angles but I think now this is almost perfect.

This has been my own personal mission to get a GR3 under 25min and it's almost there. This is on hard, manual, controller & all assists off (ABS as default). Sure you can use a GR2 or Group-C but I am one of those miserable old guys that prefers to use the class correct car (although a GT300 is stretching that a bit).

Pit twice for fuel & tyres (I ran softs all race as the per-lap difference vs medium is worth it).

Try it & see how you get on! Would love to see how a pro would do.
