Gaming Gran Turismo 7

[boostedguy05]

daily login bonuses are back!!

as is the christmas jazz!! I'll be honest, nothing puts me in the mood for the holidays..........until I hear that christmas music when I boot the game up. I love that they've continued doing that over the years. I'm ready for christmas now

weekly races were rather pleasant this week as well. Nothing w/ any tire wear or fuel consumption this week

If your ever up to racing with a bunch of drunk assholes, join up on a Friday night. CST 9 or 10 - whenever someone is snoring in the mic.

Man its been awhile

You'd probably destroy us. We take turns picking a car or class and a track and to 3-4 laps. So we usually have a lot of viraty each week.

Perhaps. I TRY to have manners when im driving in GT, but the AI can be bullied pretty easily, as long as you dont let them get near your rear quarter in turns, cuz they WILL turn into you and pit you.

If my Forza personality comes out, all bets are off

Yeah, a little bumping happens, sometimes unintentionally, sometimes on purpose.

I went to fire this up today, apparently its been a while and I had some big updates.

 

[IDAFC21]

yeah theres been a few updates

 

[Broke EF]

Its annoying when you just want to play but you have a year of updates to do first. Maybe tomorrow. Or maybe 6 months LOL

 

[IDAFC21]

I miss the days of when you didnt play a game for awhile, you'd just blow on the cartridge and you'd be good to go

 

[Mook]

How much worthwhile content have they added since launch?

 

[boostedguy05]

boostedguy05 yall got any wheel users in your group?

Nope.

 

[IDAFC21]

tons of new cars, new tracks and track layouts, new photo locations, new menu books, new everything

I say something similar to my wife all the time.

Since I had to boot the game up to get my login bonus today, figured I'd snap a few pics. They added a drift mode to scapes now which is really quite awesome and easy to set up shots

Couple other random shots. There's over 3000 scapes now you could spend all friggin day trying to find the perfect scene

I was surprised about no weekly race with tire and fuel.

Well they certainly made up for it this week 3 lap race at the nurburgring ENDURANCE layout, w/ tire and fuel and 800PP cars. I of course jumped straight into that because I am a sick individual. Used my McLaren F1 GTR. Took a few frustrating restarts, but managed to get thru it, and finished first. NO clean race bonus on this one Even tho I tried. But man once you're on the main ring, its so hard to overtake w/out getting in someones way. Started on racing hard tires, which I managed to make last for 2 laps, and when I pitted for the final lap I put on mediums. At least it didnt rain And even going full lean on the fuel mix I still pitted after each lap for fuel. MAYBE POSSSIBLY could have done 2 laps on a single tank but I did not want to chance it. The only time I went full rich on the mix was the main straight before the end of the lap. I didn't take first until the final lap, on the back straight leading up to the carousel, and from there it was smooth sailing to the finish w/ about a 14 second lead.

I think I'm good for today now That was intense.

Also snapped this the other day when I was logging in to get my daily login bonus

Now that it's winter time I've been playing this almost every day. And if I go into scapes mode I get carried away.

 

[IDAFC21]

scapes could be its own game by itself its so easy to get trapped in it

I was kind of upset that they didn’t have the weekly challenge in with the update but then I remembered it only takes about an hour to complete the weekly challenge.
On a good note I’ve recently done 2 races at the 700PP LeMans 30 minute race AND IT DIDN’T RAIN!! That’s never happened to me before.

I see Mook coming back for more
