No more evident was when I did a race in the beginer series FF class, and the cars placed 3rd, 4th, 5th got together on the main straight just after race start and I slipped through to 3rd, doesnt sound odd untill I did the same race again to save up some cash and alas, the exact same thing happened, I thought that's pretty dodgy, raced it a 3rd time and guess what, same thing again, at that point I turned it off and dont ever want to play it again, if Polyphony Digital can take that long to release a game after its first scheduled release date (dec 2003) and still get the same things wrong that have plagued the series since GT2, and still call it the definitive driving simulator they have got their foots up their arses, and arent listeing to their fanbase. Whoopdido it has 700 cars, bigdeal it has 50 tracks, its still the same if you have more power you will win game it was 9 years ago when I first played GT1.Dissapointed, rant over.Dazza.

We know you want too Deano... Try this in your setting to help remove understeer (along with the 0 oversteer and 1 understeer help someone posted) Front spring rate around 11.8 rear around 12.2. You can make those setting stiffer IF your on a smooth track, but since majority of GT tracks are not so smooth this little softer is better.I have all my licences and found them WAY too easy to get in GT4. I doubt you should have any problems with the last 4 Kaine if you have done majority of them already.Maybe we can start a GT4 Challenge thread? Something like who can lap the Nurburgring the quickest in an "unlimited" F6 Typhoon... ie: any mods allowed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another thing I noticed also is the inconsistencies in the power levels of your cars. Note that when modding your car it gives you xxxkw in power, then go back to your garage and have a look at your power figures, they are way (sometimes 100kw) higher than in the mods section. These cars must have been dynoed on dynowogs dyno or something, but it was fairly dissapointing to see.Dazzawhoisverydissapointedingt4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drcook Member 752 Member For: 20y 1m 3d Location: leonay Posted 14/03/05 12:21 AM Share Posted 14/03/05 12:21 AM I got my copy of GT4 the other day and saved some cash for a Typhoon. Does anyone else think they skimped on the engine noises in this game? The Typhoon sounds like a Honda S2000 with an exhaust on it and the FPV GT does not sound anything like a V8! Besides that its a great game, but jeez I thought they would have made a lot more effort in the sound department!<{POST_SNAPBACK}>I read up on the game at a few high profile gaming websites, they all mentioned the real cars selected to be in the game were all individually sound recorded so I would of thought the sound would be pretty realistic. just what I read. anyway will be getting mine in a week.

The game was designed for these steering wheels and they will give you a better experience.Dazza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
