| KBG29 said: So I saved the 30 Lap endurance for tonight, as a last bit of enjoyment until the wait for the full release and VR. Going incredible, I have a 7+ second lead over T. Simon in lap 27. I set new marks for fast laps in 28 and 29 and somehow he has closed the gap, and now sits right on my tail. Go into turn 4 on the final lap and he cuts it inside, and rides my right rear quarter panel until he spins me out into the wall, and finally coming to a stop at nose first into the green barricade on the right. I have to back up and get going again. Ended up finishing 14 seconds behind in 1:03.59. Still really enjoyed the rest of the race, but this kind of crap is not something I wanted from GT. It is like I am playing Motorstorm with how bad the rubberbanding is happening. I have no doubt this is going to be the case for the rest of the Campaign, and as I said before, I see this becoming a serious grind. I have not touched the Sport mode, but I am hoping as I raise my ratings, I will be able to get into non bumper car races, and not have to deal with the A.I. after I complete the rest of the challanges. Aside from this issue, I am very happy with what we have here. I still think that a racing sim on the TV is an outdated expereince, but it still does have its charms. I see myself spending a lot of time with this game regaurdless. Really looking forward to the VR Tour, and can't wait to see new tracks and cars added each month. Now the wait for the 17th:( |
I did the endurance raise again for punishment I guess. I got spun out by the AI trying to pass me about 6 or 7 times, half the time I could recover other times backwards against a wall. The rubberbanding is ridiculous. The driving is excellent, yet the AI is ruining it. After the final pit stop, I immediately got pushed off road 3 times in a row. Still due to rubberbanding I got in the lead again, only to be taken out half a lap later by the magic speed up of the car behind me. Then in the final lap I was back in pos 3, nr 2 car veers into my path on the fast corner where you can make up time, just clipped him, not even a bump, 10 sec penalty, nevermind. To add insult to injury another car out of nowhere takes me out in the final corner.
It looks pretty but I hope VR brings some way to progress because I don't see myself bothering much with the challenges if the AI stays like this. bring back the drone AI of GT5, anything is better than this.
