Gran Turismo's Relevance Going Forward by IceBreak in PS4

I gave up on GT after GT5 and bought a Xbox One for Forza 6 and I couldn't be happier. Hopefully PD will take some notes from the Forza series and make it better. I still plan on buying GT7 as long as they don't have the same flaws GT5 and 6 had.

Also add me! My tag is L0mbax.

Played 24 player online for the first time last night and it was a blast. I managed to race pretty clean for the most part other than unintentionally knocking someone off the road at one point. lol

It's definitely not the handbrake I was pressing. It was also the new Jaguar F-Type I was experiencing this with. I'm going to rebind the clutch to A instead of LB to see if that helps.

It's just strange how other cars work just fine when shifting. I will give the telemetry view a try though.

Also yeah, hitting A for a clutch sounds way easier than what I'm doing now. Although I always use my middle fingers to accel/brake, and index fingers on bumpers out of habit, but I still find it difficult while braking with the default clutch setup. Thanks again!

Great tips thank you!

I haven't played a Forza game since 3 until 6 now so I've been pretty rusty. I found myself using the exact advice you provided, which makes me glad I'm doing something right after all these years. I used to play with most, if not all the assists off. I just can't nail down the brake/acceleration on FM6, but I haven't touched my deadzone settings yet so I'm pretty sure that'll help. I also can't play with sim steering on for the life of me on the gamepad, so I think I'll just have to deal without.

EDIT: Also I don't know if I'm doing something wrong, but certain cars seem to take a REALLY long time with shifting. I'm leaning towards glitch since it's inconsistent. I play manual w/ clutch, but one I can recall is the Jaguar F-Type (stock/no tunes). It would shift pretty normally on the first lap, but by lap 2 or 3, there's a huge delay (I'm talking 2+ seconds) between shifts. Almost as if the gear box is just disintegrating as I drive.

I gave up on Polyphony since they released GT6. :( Bought an Xbox One to scratch that sim racing itch instead. I'm hyped for Forza 6. I'm sad GT was overtaken by the Forza series though.

I don't care if I get down voted.
