You keep going on about the immersion of that ****ty 3D in the context of driving, talking about some weak ass immersion that won't even touch the surface of the real thing and is then rendered completely out of context! YOU brought 3D up in relation to OUR discussion about the thrill of real-life racing.

but 3d glasses is still closer on topic than real life driving, since GT5 will have 3d glasses support

and i really think that there will be more 3d glasses and copies of GT5 sold, than there will be sports cars... driving a sports car will and should remain an exotic and exclusive experience, while GT5 and 3d glasses are relevant to alot of people...

And that wasn't the discussion, you basically took one of my posts completely out of context which was said in a totally different discussion and then you add something completely irrelevant - Please don't ever do that again and learn how to take part of a discussion, that would be swell.

Is that also how you communicate with your peers, take a random sentence in a discussion and then say something totally unrelated?

it may have sounded random to you, but that was assuredly not my intention

your talk of driving experience , while appropriate, is out of reach for the masses, unlike readily available consumer electronics and video games

it is most definitely relevant to the discussion in the sense that 3d will bring the gaming experience towards that of actual driving, i have already made the point that it will not take the experience all the way there...

I was talking about one, single aspect of the driving experience that can't be enhanced or re-created with 3D glasses, ever. I wasn't talking about it in general. So you basically started another discussion on top of mine by taking something out of context, hence the confusion. I didn't mean to be hostile, I just hate when someone takes discussions out of context or completely misses the point, adding something unrelated on top of it.

And now we're just beating a dead horse again and again, I'm off.

lol Sethos, everywhere i go on this forum seems to be after you having a battle :p only joking!

but I dont think GT5 needs 3D, its going to be amazing, especially if I'm right in thinking that it is going to be in 1080p HD?

I was really looking forward to GT5 but after playing the Demo there are 2 things that I really don't like about it at all.

And that 1 being the control. I think it just plain sucks! I can not for the life of me keep my car on the track! I keep hitting into the walls. This is not how people drive in real life. And my second issue is what is with all the screeching noise? There is was too much screeching noise going on in this game.

Other then those 2 things GT5 looks amazing!

Its just very sad if this is how the control is going to be for all cars ireful2.gif

Anyone here agree with me?

I used to play a game call World Racing on the PC which had great control and you were able to stay on the road most of the time. I wish GT5 was like that.

It's explained perfectly cleary the demo is on professional physics as it's purpose is for GT Acadmey to recruit people who can actually drive. Winners go onto actually race a real car.

It's NOT a proper GT5 demo.

ps. Sorry Seth buddy, no time.

GT5 isn't designed to be a game where you pick up the controller and become an expert in 10 minutes, it takes more practice than other games. having said that, you should be able to get the basics sorted fairly quickly...

first thing i did was change the throttle to a trigger button, then you can adjust it as needs be. wheelspinning is generally a result of too much power too soon. try to graduate it slightly.

A suggestion to the new racers, map the keys to the R2 and L2 triggers, as that's the only mappable buttons on the controller that let's you have the full control over the throttle and breaks. The standard controls, the X and square button works like an on or off key and they are completely useless.

AB: Okay (Y)

Would GT5 be a lot better control wise if I used a racing wheel?

I have never owned a racing wheel before but if it would make playing GT5 better control wise then I would get one.

If you can't drive with the controller, no chance with the wheel either I'd think. "Upgrading" to a wheel will only help you take lines more accurately and control your speed and breaking a lot more precisely.

They're not that useless (and certainly aren't on/off keys). It can be tricky to get fine control of the throttle quickly but it is certainly possible to control the throttle/brake with the normal X/Y keys.

Well, you go ahead and use them then :p

yeah i don't get why GT by default maps the accel and brake to those buttons when you have pressure sensitive trigger buttons... Especially in a simulator where hitting the brake to a certain point or accelerator can shave off seconds here and there.

Sorry if this was posted elsewhere, i did a quick browse and didnt see it.. i just saw this and was left in awe...holy **** it looks better than i anticipated. it just looks....REAL!

-snip-

It looks amazing, but that's the replay mode...so it's unscaled. The actual game play will be different.

i think the comparison between the ingame graphics and real life , that was the point of the video

and there's only one or two points in the video where i can definitely say for sure if its in-game or real life, like the birds arent realistic and the reflections are abit pixelated....

but other than that...

    • Tidal won't monetize AI slop music, company says

      By monterxz · Posted

      I've been on Deezer for over a decade, but glad that Tidal joined them in fighting AI slop. Can't stand such takes as Spotify's: "Spotify's CEO recently pushed back against listeners who call AI music "slop," urging people to stop using the term and instead embrace the creative potential of AI music."

    • Microsoft Teams gets smarter at spotting sneaky meeting bots

      By Usama Jawad96 · Posted

      Microsoft Teams gets smarter at spotting sneaky meeting bots by Usama Jawad Microsoft Teams is set to receive a couple of new features soon, including a dedicated Recap app and a rather controversial location tracking functionality. The Redmond tech giant has also explained how it has made online communication and collaboration a lot more performant this year. Now, the company has detailed more secure bot admission mechanisms, as first reported by us in March 2026, and now available in Teams. As the use of AI has expanded across enterprise environments, Microsoft has begun allowing users to integrate bots into their meetings for various tasks, such as note-taking. While this has a tangible productivity benefit for users, Microsoft has highlighted how misconfiguration has allowed bots to join meetings that they shouldn't. This has created security and privacy risks, which Microsoft is now combating using a new Teams admin policy that allows organizers to control how external bots access meetings. Admins can leverage a policy called Manage external bots and their access to meetings. The default configuration is "When detected, require approval before joining", which places detected bots in a lobby before they are explicitly admitted into the meeting. The other option disables the experience. Microsoft has also requested admins to only allow organizers and co-organizers to manage access to a meeting, so that other people don't randomly allow bots into meetings. Teams will now be able to leverage infrastructure signals to intelligently detect and distinguish between bots and humans. Microsoft will soon also trial a registration experience for independent software vendors (ISVs) to build a system that registers a bot with Microsoft, so it is marked as a "known" bot. Teams will also categorize bots as trusted and suspected threats so that organizers can quickly identify which bots they want to allow into a meeting. Additional safeguards to block accidental admission of a bot into a meeting include: No one-click Admit option for identified bots Confirmation prompts when admitting participants that include bots Warnings when organizers choose Admit all, and bots are included Microsoft has begun rolling out this experience, and it will be retiring the current CAPTCHA verification implementation. In the future, the company plans to roll out new capabilities like allow-lists, organization-wide policies, admin reports, audit logs, and more granular controls.
    • Bypassed Windows 11 shows surprising stability on ancient, completely unsupported hardware

      By +Warwagon · Posted

      With the current hardware prices Microsoft should lift the restriction. Then if you have the correct TPM then allow you to use X feature, if you don't have the correct TPM then don't but still actually let you run windows. 11. With a disclaimer during install that X features would be unavailable.

      It's good for recycling of course. But commence inflation of a second hand RAM bubble and price gouging on DDR 4 inventory in 3... 2... 1...
