I can't stand multiplayer normally.. but even though the adversaries can be cunts in GTS, I could enjoy it a little... but sure I would trade in for more offline play against the online mode.

Why trade in when you can have both?!

 

@sixteenvolt

For the Online in GTS I must say....Try it! And try to qualify good so you'll be in front of the peasant pack with their ramming and up your rankings that way.
I never liked online play....I hate it in shooters and I certainly did never like it in other racing games, but I love it in GTS...They've really done something special here. It's not flawless but I certainly don't miss racing against predictable A.I. a lot.

Indeed, yet mostly because the AI is predictably bad :( There's just no joy in racing them. GT League will be good to vent some frustration on the AI while not ruining anyone else's game. I wonder if they've fixed the winning gold even though you finish fifth after penalties. (That might have just been in the demo, was funny anyway)

Unfortunately the ramming happens as much in the front as in the back online. Matchmaking is wonky, sure fill up a mostly SR.S DR.D race with a couple SR.A DR A and B drivers at the front. You can qualify as good as you want, get an SR.A driver behind you at the start and be prepared to get hit in the first corner. It just shows how boring the AI is that online is preferable...

Steady progress. Going back to lobbies and doing a few races there is quite a culture shock after doing mostly SR.S races. However I've yet to witness a decent race on Mount Panorama, and it might be for the better that the Nordschleife isn't used in Sport mode... Brands hatch is a lot cleaner in SR.S, big progress there.
