Riz Posted March 29, 2008 Report Share Posted March 29, 2008 I`m making slow progress considering I bought mine 00:02:54 on launch day Almost finished Class B and taking my time getting to grips with it. I think once Sony / PD release more updates including the ability to setup private sessions the fun can begin.... and setup TSN championships etc. I personally think its worth the £19.71 I paid for it Riz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
balboni Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Once you have finished class A, a new special class appears with mainly supercars and tuned cars. Not too bad, you can pretty much do all of the races with a stock GT-R (or mildly tuned). However for one of the races you need an F40 and another requires a GT-40! Better start saving!!!

balboni Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Yes, you can tune many aspects of the car. Add weight, lower weight, add horsepower, change the brake balance, tinker with the aerodynamics etc etc..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaiHal Posted March 30, 2008 Report Share Posted March 30, 2008 Any thoughts on the best wheel to buy? Doing a quick search shows the general consensus for GT4 was the "Logitech Driving Force Pro Wheel". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watch some of the videos on youtube and you can see what an awesome bit of kit it is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChaiHal Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Yea, since my post I've been doing a little more digging and am coming to the same conclusion. Problem is the price tag, cheapest I can find in stock is £150 delivered and that's from Dell (of all places). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bells0 Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Remind me not to preorder with play.com!! Hoping its in todays post so i can get goin tonight! Got the G25 wheel, is an awesome bit of kit. The ability to use a clutch and full gearbox in GT5p is gonna be pretty cool!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bells0 Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 No play seat yet, bit skint. Sadly enough i have it attached to an ironing board!! Not used the thing since Mrs left 4 months ago, coming in useful now though. Good job there is no one about to see me, cos i look like a bit of a tit sitting infront of an ironing board driving an F1 car............ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bells0 Posted March 31, 2008 Report Share Posted March 31, 2008 Nah, been playin Formula 1 so far. GT has turned up today, so left it installing whilst i'm in the office this arvo. As far as i know the clutch and 6 spped gear change is fully supported. Am sure that it'll be easier to use the paddles, but be quite cool to try with the clutch/pedal combo!

bells0 Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Superb fun!! - can't wait till the online part lets private leagues race. Anyone else with a G25 - press the top button on the gearstick module when u start a race - this enable the clutch! [otherwise u can just change without the clutch sim to sequential] - makes it more realistic. Got through Class C last night and into B. Trying to get 1st place in the overtaking in 1 lap in my Type R is doing my bloody head in!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

farmerpalmer Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 Just got GT5 at the weekend, so am busy getting thro class A (COD4 will now have to gather a bit of dust) The G25 looks great - i may have to invest in one - is it force feedback type? ps were you tracking your car at elvington track day the other weekend?

bells0 Posted April 1, 2008 Report Share Posted April 1, 2008 G25 has 2 motors for force feedback - works really well. Couldn't imagine playing it with a controller now! Tracking my car, nah mate - is only a 2.0i - would drive me nuts trying to get it round a track! Looks good, drives sloooow! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

balboni Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 We should probably compile a list of TSNers online names! Would be good fun! Mine is 'balboni' and I normally play Fuji at the 650 class. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
