The last GT I enjoyed was 3 which was years ago. I am hopeful for this one.

Lost in a sea of GIF’s a couple of pages back, but...

Any recommendations for a good wheel setup without selling a limb? I see some folks spending $1K plus and I am sure that's some good kit but considering my lack of love for racing games something entry level will do me just fine to add to the immersion without paying money on something that's garbage either.

I'm guessing not many, if any wheels works across PS4 and XB1 out of the box? I can buy a Drive Hub if needed anyway but thought I would ask the question out of curiosity.

I’m in Australia so obviously prices will differ but just after opinions from those who’ve tested particular wheels or even better, various wheels.

 

[Baroquemantic]

Goddamn, wish I could play this.

 

[Have a Nice Day]

Absolutely insane.

 

[flipswitch]

Yeah, sorry guys but 10AM BST is in 3 hours



As a PC2 owner I can asure you that GTS is the game to buy right now(on PS4) even with its low numbers.

That's what I said

Ok, thanks!

 

[kyser73]

I’ve got a GT Force wheel, might have to invest in a Pi & Gimx for this...

 

[Mush]

I’m in Australia, not a plus member, so I can still play it at the same time as plus users. 53mins in other words.

The NZ Playstation FB page posted a time of 10pm NZ Time for the demo. So basically at the time of this post you'd be waiting another 2 hours and 40 minutes.

 

[fersnake]

7hrs to finish my download xD

guys those gifs are from a ps4? or pro? cuz damm this game looks so good now.

So that’s 8pm. Much better than I initially thought of which was 12pm Tuesday.

Well you’ll have to download it first since pre-load was only available for Plus.

 

[bombshell]

The T150 is the entry-level supported wheel.

Well you’ll have to download it first since pre-load was only available for Plus.

No, preload has been available from the start for everyone in EU region (includes AU/NZ)

 

[Jonesy7707]

Cheers but is it good or would I get better value by spending a bit more? I’m happy to spend the money if it’s worth it

 

[kikiribu]

I’ve never owned a wheel before but for GTS that will change. I guess I should start looking into the T150 unless there’s something better in that price range.

 

[Jonesy7707]

Well you’ll have to download it first since pre-load was only available for Plus.

I downloaded it a couple of days ago without PS+ and I’m in AUS, there was no restriction here.

 

[flipswitch]

I have downloaded it though almost two days ago.

 

[FIREKNIGHT2029]

some gifs from that video

😵 HNNNNNNNGH!

 

[dr guildo]

So ps4 pro 1080p mode is 60 fps gameplay and replay?


Also how are the reports so far in terms of how the game is with a wheel? Does it just work or do I need endless tinkering like pcars?

Yes it is !

RaspberryPi+GIMX adapter.

CronuxMax DriveHub adapter ready-to-go adapter.

If any one of you can grap a cheap Logitech Driving Force GT wheel from the second-hand market and then DriveHub adapter it may be a good entry-level jump to PS4 racing games.

Plus isn't a requirement for preloading in the PSN EU region.

I read yesterday on here that the pedals are shite, but they can be upgraded separately later.

You can also see if you can find deals for G29, since that's a more complete package.

 

[Mush]

So that’s 8pm. Much better than I initially thought of which was 12pm Tuesday.

Well, they also said I wouldn't be able to pre-load the beta until 10:30pm Saturday but I was able to finish downloading it by 3pm that same day.

 

[Callibretto]

how is T150 compared to DFGT? I already have DFGT since GT5, I like it. I' wondering if I should get GIMX and keep using DFGT or buy a new T150.

it's been awhile since I use DFGT though. last time I used it is for Drive Club

 

[Jonesy7707]

Yep, updated my post.

Cheers man. I’ll check out the G29 then.

 

[Putty]

Looking at the T150...Cheapest in the UK is £139 but friends are saying the pedals are dogshit. Is there a better wheel combo out there for the same price?

For those thinking you need a wheel to achieve top times, some of the top times in the beta were pad users, me included 8)

・Time Limit (If the Race Type is set to "Endurance".)
・No. of Cars

・Slipstream Strength
・Mechanical Damage
・Tyre Wear
・Fuel Depletion
・Grip Reduction on Wet Track/Track Edge (Low/Real)
・Opponent Category (The larger the gap between your car's category and your opponents' cars' category, the more stars will appear on the left side of the settings screen, indicating a more difficult race. More difficult races pay out more in prize money.)
・Opponent Speed (Increasing from Beginner to Intermediate to Expert will increase the number of stars that appear on the left side of the settings screen, indicating a more difficult race. More difficult races pay out more in prize money.)

I think my time is usually better in gamepad too. probably because I'm more used playing with pad than wheel. but wheel is just more fun to play.

Is that the wheel that was released with gt4 on ps2?

I have one of them put away the adapter definetly works?

http://m.au.ign.com/articles/2005/02/19/logitech-driving-force-pro

I have this one or is it too old?

 

[SliChillax]

Just found out this is for PS Plus only, what a bummer.

Seems like it's online in europe

The pedals are shity until 350e T300gt range.

 

[Predwolf]

Yup, it's live in North America!

 

[SolidSnakex]

Don't play with me like this.

Wet Weather Tyres
Wet weather tyres have channels on the treads to drain out water. Intermediate tyres are used for slight rain or tracks that are wet in some parts only, while heavy-wet tyres are used in all other cases.

・Racing: Intermediate (RI)
・Racing: Heavy-Wet (RH)

.

 

[NullPointer]

Yup, it's live in North America!

Yay!

Just got though the opening menus and then crashed out (CE-38700-8)

And every time I hit the start menu it crashes.

 

[Ellite25]

It’s working now!!

 

[bombshell]

Just found out this is for PS Plus only, what a bummer.

It's for everyone, buf if you're a non-PS+ member in the US you for some reason have to wait until 6pm PT tonight to download it.

.

Those sneaky bastards! So when are they showing off the rain?

 

[JackAubrey]

Crashed to desktop before my first race. That's a good start.

 

[Mutagenic]

Just crashed after clicking on options.

 

[Predwolf]

Yay!

Just got though the opening menus and then crashed out (CE-38700-8)

Yeah, I played two driving tests and crashed out when I hit options.

 

[BouncyFrag]

It begins.

 

[Predwolf]

...another crash when I went into options from the main menu.

 

[bud]

all these crashes. sensational.

polyphony are back.

can't wait to try this out when i get home.

I’m tempted by the Pi/Gimx combo as it’ll be less intrusive than using my laptop, which is a barge-sized PoS...

 

[Predwolf]

Okay, you cannot go into options at all without it crashing. That's my third crash to XMB in under two minutes. You have been forewarned.

 

[SillySinStorm]

As a longtime XB and Forza lover i am so happy for you PS'ers. Game looks sublime 🏎️🏁💙

 

[JackAubrey]

Yup tried to get into options three times. Crash each time.

Who said GT had unrealistic crashes?

 

[jaypah]

all these crashes. sensational.

Well....better now than release day.

 

[NullPointer]

Okay, you cannot go into options at all without it crashing. That's my third crash to XMB in under two minutes. You have been forewarned.

I was able to set my options before the game actually launched - now it crashes every time.

Dont know if it saved my previous settings yet. (edit: nope)

 

[Elfstruck]

Why don't you guys wait til it officially unlocks?
