Hmmm so I didn't get any of the VIP stuff yesterday, on todays first wheelspin I notice I get a VIP bonus I didn't get on any of yesterdays.

 

Unable to invite anyone to the club right now, the club overview is giving unknown error.

 

But anyone who's my friend should find the club by looking for friends club when the game gets to the join a club stage, or just search for club Neowin or tag Neo


Also if anyone figures out the airport discount board. Double tap the guide and click x or say record this ###### ;)

Also just for information, if you challenge a drivatar on the road, the course doesn't have any checkpoints, I'm sure you guys can figure out why that can be... beneficial...

 

I thought that was the point? When challenging cars in the previous game, you'd be given an end point and that was it. With this game being more open world (you can drive pretty much everywhere) you're encouraged to take the car off road.

Makes it easy to win when you can drive a quarter of the distance ;)

 

Also, I get it's a road trip, but I'm not taking that route...

Yeah it does seem a bit strange, I guess you can't implement checkpoints without taking away from the freedom, but then as you said you potentially lose half the race.

 

Also pics seems to be broken...

How do I access the DLC cars? Pre-order bonus and Launch Day car pack, if that makes a difference.

They were under Garage or My Cars for me, forget which one, I then just had to activate them through the game.

The advert for this was on tv last night, i gota say GT6 has a lot to live up to.

 

GT6 or GT7? GT can't hold a candle to Forza anymore. It's one instant where Microsoft has put the money in to get it done right. 

 

This game is the BEST fun I've had on next gen so far.

Activate them how? I'm at work but don't remember seeing them in either place, just 2 cars.

From the pause menu there was a marketplace area. I went there and was had to download, which is what I meant by activate, each pack, even though I had redeemed the code before I even launched the game. It then did a quick little download, and that is when the cars then showed up under cars I owned.

It made no sense at all to be honest and seemed ass backwards, but that is what worked to get the game to recognize I owned those packs. It was showing the cars as costing $0 as mentioned above, but that did not matter until I went to the marketplace and downloaded them.

I think it is safe to say they are having some odd things happen due to launch on the servers, as they should have just been recognized as soon as I launched the game, especially since as I pointed out I downloaded them first thing.

Thank you very much for clarification. I'll try this when I get home. I appreciate it.

    • TerraMaster F2-425 Pro review: a low-powered Intel NAS that ships with AI (OpenClaw)

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I have a older F4-210 NAS, it is pretty basic, the CPU is not the fastest by a long way and only 1GB of ram, but it works fine. I don't understand the need for A.I in a NAS. It seems like A.i is being shoved into everything, if we like it or not. i will stick to my old Terramsater NAS, thankfully the OS is not being updated. Also, got myself a small NAs built using a Raspberry Pi 5. iy usesd less energy, so stays on all the time. As for the unit above, if it is as reliable as my old Terramaster Nas, then it will be a good unit.
    • Gemini in Google Sheets can now help you debug and fix formula errors

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      Gemini in Google Sheets can now help you debug and fix formula errors by David Uzondu Google has started rolling out an update to Gemini in Google Sheets that allows the AI to diagnose and fix formula errors in one click, as long as your Workspace admin has Gemini for Workspace in Sheets turned on. According to Google, the new feature can handle pretty much everything from basic arithmetic to very complex calculations. This ability to debug formula errors comes about two years after Google introduced basic formula generation with Gemini in Sheets. To create a formula with Gemini in Sheets, you open a spreadsheet on your computer and click Ask Gemini in the top right corner. You can also enter an equals sign in any cell and use a shortcut like Ctrl + Alt + G on Windows and Chrome OS, or Command + Ctrl + G on macOS. Once you open the side panel, you write a natural language prompt using your sheet references. For example, you can ask Gemini to divide goals by games, or to find cell C1 in range D:G. If for some reason, the formula Gemini generated doesn't work, or maybe you wrote the formula yourself, you can troubleshoot the issue directly inside the grid. When a cell shows an error message, you hover over it and click "Fix". This action opens the side panel where Gemini analyzes the data structure and automatically applies the fixes when they are ready. You can cancel the process at any time by clicking stop in the side panel. Image via Google Google has been pushing its Gemini integration in Google Sheets for a while now, steadily moving AI features from side panels directly into user spreadsheets. Last year, the Mountain View giant shipped an =AI() Function in Sheets that allowed users to run translation and text generation directly inside cells instead of using the side panel interface. Earlier this year, the company announced that Gemini in Sheets had reached near-human expert performance, achieving a 70.48% success rate on the SpreadsheetBench dataset.
    • It's about to become harder to turn off your Samsung TV, thanks to Instagram

      By ad47uk · Posted

      I get what you are saying, If i go onto the Instagram site, it says log in with Facebook, but they are not allowed to link my account with Instagram until I do that. Maybe in the U.S, they can link them, but Privacy is not a thing in the U.S. the way things are going,l won;t be any better in the U.K.

    • AI is indeed eliminating jobs, and Oracle just proved it

      By leonsk29 · Posted

      Exactly, this is just the beginning. I hope that by that time, our inept politicians devise something like a Universal Basic Income, because unemployment and poverty rates will skyrocket otherwise. And believe me, robots that perform physical work aren't a matter of IF, but WHEN. No career is truly safe from AI/robots, it's just a matter of time.
