Gran Turismo 5 - Nov. 2/1010

[crazymikey]

I was in an online race earlier today. I was on Deep Forest, using my race modded Civic Type R. I was in an epic battle with an RSX (215hp limit in this particular race). I detuned my Civic to 198ish hp.

This race was awesome. We were on 3 of 5, passing each other back and forth, battling every inch...and all of a sudden I got disconnected.

Then, lastnight, some guy got all butt hurt and angry at me from an unintentional bump which put us both into the grass during braking hard into a corner. This idiot goes and sends me several angry messages to my inbox. I was like really? Get a fucking life. It's a game.

update took 15min for me, it adds, GT anywhere, and also noticed seasonal races got updated added 2 more races to FF, FR, AWD, and F1, and added Bonus Races No.7

mike, the dude probably kicked you lol

I'm at that point where most of the main game is complete so I'm just tuning cars and doing hot laps, like what I spent all my time in GT4 doing. Plus the occasional online to hop into a free-run. Never been one for multiplayer much.

Got TDU2 a couple days ago, been working on that a bit. The handling sucks compared to the original on PS2, which is pretty sad. Car list is disappointing, all these fugly Veyrons but no Nobles . But I love how you're always online, so while you're cruising around in the main game, others are right there going through their career too (no 360, so it's new to me!).

did online play improve any?

[crazymikey]

I downloaded the update and I just spent almost 2 hours doing the first set of new bonus races that are car specific, and the new FF, FR, and AWD events. I won over 2 200 000 credits.

Now I'm totally tired and didn't notice much else yet on the update. I only had just over 2000 credits left when I began, now I'm back up over 2 million.

Wish those were transferable to real bank accounts.

I'm waiting for a new premium car release. There are so many standard cars in the game that need to be premium.

BIZNATCHES!

the Cizeta is a BEAST to drive. freaking beast drifts out of every turn at Monza.

[crazymikey]

actually, I've been doing lots of online races and you don't really win a lot of credits, compared to the events in GT mode.

Cizeta sucks too lol.

I'm waiting for my buddy to gift me an F1 car so I can complete the F1 races in Expert mode. Then I just need to do the F1 races and finish the Nascar series and I'm done A spec, cuz I'm never going to sit through enduro races. Won't sit through B spec either. That's the biggest stupid waste of time. I'm at level 4 in it and I'm so bored of it I'd rather shit my pants for fun.

Been into drifting online recently. Also done lots of races. Seem to do pretty well most of the time. Been having some good battles and races with some people.

I had a great race the other night on Deep Forest, in my '07 WRX STi vs an STI 22B. Battled it out to the end, and I eventually won, by only 2 seconds.

I've built up a few drift cars to play with right now. I've got a 1st gen Miata, S13 Silvia, IS F, C63 AMG and a couple others I've been messing around with. I'll go into drift rooms using Tsukuba Circuit and just mess around in there for a little while, changing & tuning cars.

My buddy gifted me an F1 car, but I don't have the time to sit through a 100+ lap 5 race championship.

Oh, I also bought the Accord Euro R, a DC2 Type R and an EG hatch, none of which I've tuned up yet.
