Those graphics/gameplay whingers.

USE THE INCAR VIEW on the premium 33GTR around Nurburgring, day/night combo.

Graphics are farking awesome, as is the physics. It handles EXACTLY like it would in real life. (Sport, Hard)

I had a race online in my 32 GTR at the Nurburgring when it was at night....amazing!! Was so hard to see but fun at the same time :blink:

lol more whingers. and no G25/g27 doesnt work on the xpox....awww. pretty lame for a console made by microsoft...and yet microsft based PC's can use them...lol. the fanatec is nice, but its no G27. a bit cheaper too from what i recall.

the Polo around the ring isnt really a good indication of its bumpyness...those things go round there flat and max out at 160 :) try a faster car

one thing i was just thinking.

i played at a friends place today on a controller and it seemed to drive completely differently ( yeah i know, of coarse it feels differnet to a wheel).....but it was very different, then i realised the driving physics were on Novice not Pro, or simulation.

i would be willing to bet a few bucks that the peeps complaining about the feel of the cars not being right is due to this.

turn it up...loose the traction control. tuned my Mach 1 stang up to 595hp today and threw it around laguna. sounds angry, does mad skids aye!!

I've got the wheel set to simulation with max feedback strength (D force GT), and it's a decent likeness of reality. Controller peeps would find it nigh on unplayable in simulation mode.

My Mac F1 has 883hp and weighs 970kg- Even with all the aero mods and slicks it can't be driven with TC off (not anywhere quickly at any rate). TC set to 8 gives the best compromise between allowing a little slip you can avoid with proper throttle use but without the bogging down you get when it's set higher

As expected, Forza 3 EATS this game alive. Cannot believe how pathetic these developers are. I find it sickening that after sooooooo long, the cars STILL sound like absolute SH*T!!

I drove 600HP R34 GTR which sounded like... F**T if i know!!??? A corolla with an exhaust and punched out cat??

Drove an M3... which sounded like what it would've if it was in Gran Turismo 2.

Anyhow tried a few other cars and was SO bloody dissapointed. In general the game still sucks and is still SO FAR behind Forza 3. In forza, if you drive a 600hp car, it FEELS and goes like a 600HP car. You 'feel' the car break traction, the engine climbs through the rev range in a way that is just so much more exciting and realistic.

Also, while they have actually improved the handling physics in GT5, the whip lash effect is still over exagerated & the LSD effect is still not lively enough on low speed stuff.

Anyway im buying an Xbox.

sounds very much like someone who went into this game with having decided his opinion before even playing it.

it sounds like the only way to impress you would be if the game was exactly like forza. you have grown accustomed to the way forza plays and now any racing game that does things any differently, you instantly dismiss as rubbish. try having an open mind next time

every car i've driven so far sounds incredibly accurate. maybe get a decent audio setup? thats probably half your problem right there.

and as for the physics, there are a number of people in this very thread who have verified the cars in-game handle and perform exactly like their own cars in real life.

LSD not lively enough? are you sure forza wasnt set too lively?

whip lash effect too strong? are you sure forza's physics aren't a little too forgiving?

you cant judge the physics as crap if all your comparing it to is forza. try comparing it all to the real thing, then you may criticize.

lol my 700hp R35 GTR just loses traction on anything

this.

forza is waaaaay to forgiving.

oh and whats this about driving physics, is that all the TCS and ABS options?

Every car you've driven sounds incredibly accurate? LMAO. Thats all I had to read to disregard the rest of what you wrote.

OK, I'm very impressed with the physics of the game. The in-car view on the S15 is awesome and it feels like the real thing. I can't wait to get a R33/34 GTR and a Legnum VR-4 to compare them to the real thing.

One thing I've found though is that I've forgotten the layout of most of the tracks because I haven't played a GT game in a few years! So I have to relearn everything now like a noob, lol.

The car sounds are a bit hit and miss, my first car was an s13 which sounded pretty realistic but my fully tuned gtr sounds a bit like a tractor, and my two ferraris sound nothing like any ferraris I have ever heard, and the mercialgo just sounds rediculous.

    • I thought Australia got rid of the "drag dodgy fuel up to 91 RON with ethanol", which is why all E10 advertise as "up to 94 RON" ? Anyway I put E10/91 in the missus' Mazda because she empties the tank weekly, when all my cars get 98RON. tl;dr - turbo - 98 RON, if you can't afford that, sell it and get a commuter car (or tune your car for 91, which no one does).
    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
