THE GAMESMEN CUP - Season 3 - Division 1

ok ok ok ... I will try and get a 1B table up this week

anyone aside from beau dsc in div 1?

Tech, no drama mate, at the end of the day what we do needs to be enjoyable or whats the point....i get it. Have said it a thousand times that the tuning is a killer and will be looking at that very closely for the upcoming season. Overall, it turned more people off, than those that continued, so it is certainly something that needs to be looked at.

Most disappointing thing for me are the guys who ended up getting everything they wanted in the regs but have pulled the pin for one reason or another.

Seth, im not quite sure what it is you want out of it, but the reality is that both GT6 and PCARS have massive issues that need to be worked around. Other than the magnetic issue on contact, and the limited options we get going non tune, they are line ball with how the issues effect what we do.

I notice you have a tune/full damage/failures endurance series going, and hope you get full grids, but how can you bag the sunday night races so heavily, and the game in general, when they are a walk in the park compared to what you are offering there ? Im
I really hope GTS gives us what we want, but lets get real. Every GT game has been flawed with tire glitches, pit glitches, and the network stability has been diabolical for many years. I hope for your sake that things get better

Yes that was always the plan mate, was shot down after the first race and didnt have the energy to try to convince everyone that it should continue. Reality is, if we all go to GTS (if its awesome ) we will prob have to do it in all divs with 20 cars proposed in each lobby....just have to wait and see what happens there.

All good mate, we live and learn ! i am assuming you are putting it in gear before the lights go green ? Some of the guys use the handbrake (needs to be assigned) ...... i throw it in gear and use the regular brakes till the last red light before i rev it, have a habit of getting a false start drive through !

Great pace Samsung.....congrats on what looks like the div 1 title. Shame you didnt have the competition you wanted from some of the aliens. Regardless, your pace and results have been impressive.

Stu also ran every season on GT6 until he made the switch to PCars and I would like to think they were very successful even spanning 7 divisions at one stage.

Konnor, no offense taken mate, the proof is in the numbers so something needs to change. Appreciate your honesty.

In my defence(nearly all of the regs are on me) , i think i have tried too hard to keep everyone happy, and the reality is that it just cant happen. I have always tried my very best, with the help of the mod team and helpers, to "try" to give the best "racing" experience we could. I honestly believe that some aspects of the current series have become over complicated, and along with the time consuming effect of tuning, it has turned a lot of the time poor guys off.

As for the tuning, i am looking at how to get this to go for the next season......i still firmly believe that this is the major thing that has has a negative effect on the season. The last few nights i have done a little testing and have gotten back to racing while testing and had much more fun.....

Perhaps i should just say GT4 Ginetta, select the tracks and time of day (so the tires come up to temp) have fuel and tire wear on real, and see what happens. Based on last night it would be a cracking season car. The elephant in the room is the fuel issue, but i suppose that if someone is going to cheat it, they dont belong in ROOZ.

why not explain HOW to do the low fuel thing... if it isn't complicated then everyone can do it right?

The low fuel thing happens when someone enters the lobby and has never driven the car, and therefore never made a change to it. The glitch is that it drops the car to the amount of fuel needed to finish the race. EG, last night i had 60L, while others who hadnt driven it had 10L for a 5 lap race.

The way around it is to work out the fuel burn for each track and adjust it so that the guys who have full fuel will finish with just enough. The advantage to the others if they decided to "cheat" would be tiny to nothing
