and also :rofl: kaz proved that almost no one reviewed this game properly.

From what I have seen, he has just proven that they missed the damage progression. Wouldn't change a review score by more than a .1 if anything though.

Which starts happening at level 20, hardly that far into the game considering the maximum level is 40+.

i think it would do more then that. because if we are comparing this game to forza (which obviously we are) and none of the reviewers saw the realistic crash damage that is going to effect the score quite a bit becuase forza does do a really good job of it.

I'm 15 and I've seen damage, not anything drastic, but it's there.

To repair my GT-R is tens of thousands at the moment, lol.

It must be level 10 then, not 20.

And yeah cost is why it's said damage is incremental. If it was full blown at level 1 you'd be unable to play the game due to damage costs occurred in learning to drive your cars with the new physics :p

There be no rewind feature or automatic braking in GT5!

You know what I find funny in Photomode? If you are in a standard car, you only zoom in only so much to the car, or the camera will tell you to go back furthur lol. Oh.. PD.. you should've just remodeled those cars.

Does anyone have a good resource online of just the best overall approach to things?

For example I am going through be A-Spec Beginner races still, and I am now at a point I need certain cars for certain events. So I am wondering if I need to purchase them, or go do some license tests to get the cars, etc.

For the first time in a long time I actually looked up an official strategy guide, was going to pick one up from Amazon with the credit I received for purchasing GT5 from them, but I do not see any official guide that is released for everything. The only thing out there is some track guide, which is not what I need.

I've found the best way to quickly earn money and level up (if that's what you want to do) is run the special events. You get a LOT more XP and cash for those, than starting in the A spec beginner championships.

You can buy any car that has those kind of requirements. Say if it's an FR challenge, just go through your list (if you have any FR cars) and if you don't, you can buy one at the Dealership or at the used car lot. So far license test didn't get me any cars.. only the A-Spec races do.

Sorry for the double post, just had to make a couple of points:

- I just finished the World Championship in the professional series. Haven't finished a lot of the lower ones yet but I like to mix it up a bit. The weird thing is after completing that you get shown the ending credits... Considering I've probably not even scratched the surface in terms of % completion, it seems a bit weird to me!

- Possible spoiler:

I got the Bugatti Veyron for completing the world championship. It's not even a Premium car!

wtf is with that?!

    • Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations by Sayan Sen Microsoft releases new Windows Defender update packages very frequently to protect against various newly discovered malware. Once a while every three months or so, the company also pushes out these updates to Windows images (WIM and VHD) and ISOs, that are used to install Windows. Hence with the newest Windows 11 update available via the official MCT tool, you should get these definitions. This update package is necessary as a Windows installation image may contain old, outdated anti-malware definitions and software binaries. Aside from better security, these updates can also provide improved performance benefits in some cases. When a new Windows installation is set up, there may be a temporary security risk due to outdated Microsoft Defender protection in the OS installation images. This happens because the antimalware software included in these images might not be up to date. Thus Microsoft says that these updated definitions essentially help close this protection gap. Microsoft delivered the latest security definitions for Windows images via security intelligence update version 1.445.323.0. The Defender package version is also the same. It applies to Windows 11, Windows 10 ESU, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021, Win 10 Ent LTSC 2019, Win 10 Ent LTSB 2016, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2016. Microsoft writes: "This package updates the anti-malware client, anti-malware engine, and signature versions in the OS installation images to following versions: Platform version: 4.18.26040.7 Engine version: 1.1.26040.8 Security intelligence version: 1.447.236.0" From Microsoft's security bulletin, we learn that the security intelligence update version 1.447.236.0 was released early last month and adds threat detections for various malware like trojan, backdoor exploits, ransomware, stealers, AutoKMS, and more. For those wondering, the latest intelligence update is version 1.451.297.0 at the time of writing.
