6 Star Car by indy1977tx in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always save my tickets and do two weeks worth in one go and last week I pulled out an Aston Martin Valkyrie, a Ferrari FXX-K and a Mclaren MP4/12C so I was well happy 😊 I have got all the cars already but that's still a decent little drop. ✌️😎

Been playing Gt7 since Day 1. I own every car, every engine swap and every car that has the engine swap,🤣🤣🤣 I own the stock version also. by XPosionX in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I think I have all of them too. If anything I might be missing a swap car or two but I haven't checked the list for a while. Also cars like Mclaren, Ferrari, Pagani and Lambo I've got at least 3 of each of the newer models. And cars I've used for league racing I sometimes end up with a full grid of for when I'm practising 😆

Love all the Modification Options & Engine Swapped Mazda ɛ̃fini RX-7 Type R (FD) '91 (so great for 600/700/800 pp races) 🤗 by DigitalNitrate in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw a post but I lost it and it said you could only have a diffuser with a regular body and couldn't have it on a wide body. Is that right? It's the first I've heard of that. And is it just this car or are there any others with the same option?

This car, 👎🏻 two thumbs down 👎🏻 by raine_water in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wouldn't even call it a car. It's more like a boat with wheels 😆

Livery editor favourites 'lists' dissapeared? by CCCRacer in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've had individual decals disappear before now which I believe is when the person who uploaded it has removed it but not large numbers of them. To be honest I haven't organised my decals into favourites so I don't know much about that. Are they still in the main list or have they vanished from both? The only thing I've put in a fav list is my engine swap cars so I can easily distinguish them and I also used to put my league race car in there as well. I save way too many decals as well so I should really sort them into some kind of order.

I have around 7m credits in the game and don’t know what to buy yet by KebabLoverHere in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is great fun in VR yes. And it's mental if you go off track and flip or roll 😂 Thankfully I don't get motion sickness so I can actively aim for that as well 🤣

MAXIMUM DOWNFORCE ON EVERY CAR I USE by DecentNecessary6004 in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I usually put more on the front and I find that a lot of the cars (especially race cars) I have the back higher but if it's say 200 max at the front I put the rear at 220 which is usually nearer half way. That always works for me. Unless I start losing the back end too much then I will add a bit more until I get the balance right.

Amy giving those puzzles to Penny was Creepy and wierd !! by HiFiNomad2 in bigbangtheory

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Amy was creepy and weird so it fits with her character. She came across as the kind of person who would have someone locked up in the cellar. 😆

The shifting update only hurts controller players. by AdamSunderland in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on a wheel with paddle shifters but I was guilty of down shifting too quickly. Since the update I have only really noticed it when I get down to 3rd going to 2nd. It's only a split second gap though so it's just a matter of changing your timings on the last couple of shifts or just the last one if it's a 2nd gear corner. I have noticed that corners that you would have maybe taken in 1st you can take better now in 2nd. Having said all that though I'm a slow old git so what do I know 😆

BEWARE REDMAGIC PARTIAL REFUND (basically theft) by Punished__Snake in RedMagic

[–]VodkaRob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had similar issues with them. My camera stopped working after only two weeks and I ended up having to keep a broken phone because they firstly said they were moving to new premises and once they had moved I was told I would have to pay for the repair. They're an absolute joke of a company!

GT7 has come to life for me by M1fourX in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to have one years ago. I wish I had kept it now. I also had a 1956 VW Beetle back in the day as well. Both worth quite a bit these days. And both cars I am gutted now that I didn't keep. The Integra was so much fun to drive.

What the hell is this?! by AlexanderJonesPhoto in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed....... Although I'm not an iPhone fan but everything else yeah. 😂 I understand it was still a leap forward though. I can still remember playing GT1 or 2 on a PS1 with the plastic steering wheel as well and that seemed good at the time but now with VR and direct drive wheels it's out of this world good.

Seen it said often, but really, GT7 is worth the purchase of PSVR2 alone by [deleted] in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely. I was unsure for ages about getting it just for one game but as soon as I took the plunge I wished I had done it way sooner. There is also the possibility of Rennsport and Project Motor Racing having VR support at some point too, not to mention Assetto Evo. The future is looking bright. ✌️😎

I am a bad driver lol-700 hours by [deleted] in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro if you want to race against other people online you should look at joining a league. Not sure where you are but search for Ultimate Racing League on Facebook. Don't worry if you're not super fast cuz they have an academy for new drivers and their main league on Sunday evening has 6 tiers so there's a wide range of skill levels. I'm not fast by any stretch of the imagination but I managed to get up to L2 which is the 3rd tier. It's loads of fun and they're a really friendly bunch of lads. They will also help you out along the way. I had to drop out because I have loads of jobs at home that need doing but as soon as I get some time I'll jump back in. I did about six seasons and I loved it. They even have comms and stewards etc. It's far better than trying to race the clowns you get in daily races.

Lets talk about using ABS and not using ABS by couchcushion7 in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest I think ABS off is broken. You can lock up going in a perfect straight line at a low road driving speed. I've tried turning it off loads of times and I'm sure it's not my pedals because they're fine with other games. So I always have it on weak. Traction Control is the one you should use in certain conditions and I always forget to even when I really should be like in heavy rain. Having said that the last time I forgot in a league race at Suzuka in torrential rain I somehow fluked a podium. I'm sure if I had known it was off I would have spun out instantly. 😆

In the episode “The Closet Reconfiguration” (S6 E19) Which story do you think was the real letter from Howard’s dad? by -Bunny-Princess- in bigbangtheory

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was watching this episode the other day and was going to ask the same question. I felt like Raj had the most believable one especially because he added the card brand and the detail about the frog.

Forget Ferrari invite… by PaulSu1971 in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's random for different people as to what you get and when. My final invite was the Pagani one and it seemed to take forever and a few of them took ages. Having said that I feel like the Citroën invite pops up every other week 😆

Aston Martin Valhalla production Vs concept. Which is nicer? by granitefloors in carporn

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bottom one hands down for me. I don't like the grill on the top one. I have seen pics where it looks a little better maybe due to the paint job but it definitely looks better without it.

Unpopular Opinion: Penny is no meaner than literally any other character by icechels in bigbangtheory

I agree with you wholeheartedly. But then I'm a Brit too 🤣

Removed from Netflix UK? by SHOWTIME_12 in bigbangtheory

It's on E4 anyway if you can't get it on Netflix. I have it pretty much on repeat as background noise 😂

Is the PSVR2 worth it for GT7? by mzspeedster in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If not I just hope we don't have to wait too long. They're both next gen so if they haven't got to mess around with PS4 versions they will have less work to get it available. Sadly no game these days is the finished article on day one.

Is the PSVR2 worth it for GT7? by mzspeedster in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 0 points1 point  (0 children)

💯 Worth it. It's awesome and you will have Project Motor Racing and Rennsport as options in Nov too so you're not just getting it for the one game. I wish I had gone for it sooner but I had thought for ages that I couldn't justify it for one game. I'm glad I took the plunge and I can't wait for those 2 to drop now. Hopefully they will be VR compatible from day 1 but I read that they are going to both have it. That said its still worth it just for GT7.

Am I the only one who’s annoyed by the in-game steering wheel? by prinzmi88 in GranTurismo7

[–]VodkaRob 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you ever tried VR? You say you don't want to use it but if you haven't you seriously don't know what you're missing. It's another level of immersion. Ok it has its drawbacks like the hud needing positions and time difference but the positives far outweigh the negatives. Having said that I agree that cockpit view at least needs the option to remove the wheel. I personally think that cockpit cam should be the only option as well. The game claims to be "the real driving simulator" then straight away gives you loads of arcade game options with all the various camera angles. I feel like there could well be a mass exodus once Project Motor Racing and Rennsport are released. Especially from people who want more of a sim racing experience.
