The new seasonal events don't have restrictions, so do them with overpowered cars and win easily a lot of XP.

SWEET! :woot: That's just what I needed! I'll get on there later today. :)

I'm pretty sure this hasn't been posted here yet...

Amazing. :) I found a great comparison video in the related videos of that one (same driver in both videos, and he's also using the same BMW M3):

Well, I've just won all five of the new seasonal events. 3.5 million credits, 350,000 XP, and I'm only at level 28; 210,650 / 501,386 XP. :( I have still got a hell of a lot of XP to get before I reach level 30. :cry:

Anyone got a NASCAR I can borrow for seasonals please?

I am still trying to get 1st place with it right now, once I get it I will send it your way. It is tough. I had 2nd place, and like a true idiot I wound up going into the pit, which is literally right around the corner from the end. I was literally gutted.

So yeah, just fired it up, should be about 30 minutes to 45 minutes (hopefully), but I plan on stopping to watch the NFL playoffs anyway, so I can send it your way regardless in no more then an hour or so. You still interested?

I have done the harder 3 of the new seasonal races, so going to go and do the first 2 at some point as well. Definitely. But these are all great, spend some money to make a lot. Definitely worth it.

Sent it your way, I finally got 1st in that event. That was pretty much the hardest one so far, at least for me.

So send it back whenever you are done, and enjoy. (Y)

Thanks Larry hopefully won't have it for too long!

Anyone have a suggested car list for each event?

It's not THAT unlimited. :p You're limited to just one eligible car for each one, but then you're allowed to do whatever you want to it. You'll need a Toyota Prius G '09, a Lotus Elise 111R, an Audi TTS, a Ford GT '06, and the Citroen C4 WRC.

Maybe im in the wrong section? I just went to the seasonal events and did a drift on trial mountain and didn't receive anything...

AFAIK, you don't get anything for doing the time and drift trials. You only get money and XP for doing the bonus races.

Just saw this. Ridiculous the XP and money they are giving away!

Im assuming i can only win once./

yeah you can only win the races once. just did the mini one in a maxed out 07. hardly a challenge.

they should put a limit on mods to the entry car. would make it more fun.

the new seasonal events? ive never seen one where i can use cromeline or stelth cars.

I meant in tuning the cars, but yeah, there is still the restriction to one specific model.

The Toyota Prius event was so boring it was not even funny (easy, but super boring).

Does anyone have a Citroen C4 WRC they'd mind lending me? 800k is a lot to spend on something I'll likely only use once. I'm willing to pay for upgrades and send it back when done.

If you complete the Loeb Rally Challenges on Gold, which you have to use that car for anyway, they give it to you afterwards.

Once you get the hang of getting round the corners of the first, the second and third are pretty easy.

I would think a lot of people are having to the buy the car and mods for it, unless they've already saved up millions via repeating A-spec races. The more you spend on tuning (making it easier), the less you actually win. So it pays to tune enough, rather than just max the car.

Just won the Nascar round the Nordschliefe race (no tuning). Was really fun once I tamed the rear wheel power via the setup. :D

I would think people do the seasonal events for the XP, not the credits. Credit grinding is easy on A-Spec and B-Spec anyways, grinding XP is another story.

Is it just me or does the AI in this game sometimes plain retarded?

I just did the Formula GT championship on B-Spec. One of the races was raining, so I put the Race: Rain tires on my Formula GT car. The rest of the drivers had normal racing tires (so they went super slow), and did not go into the pit once to change them. I ended up winning by a 9 lap margin.

Maybe I'm just the worst GT5 player in the world but I truly cannot comprehend the penalty system in GT5 (particularly in the license tests). It seems so random and stupid it's beyond words! I mean I've had races when I've rammed the back of the car in front of me (due to failing to brake quick enough) [which in many other times has got me disqualified] then as a direct result of that go off the track completely [which also has got me disqualified numerous other times] and the game disqualifies me for a slight brush with a car as I return to the track :s other times just going a pixel from the side of the track is enough to get me disqualified. The there is the whole thing with the AI being immune to the penalty system, they cut corners to get fast times (which would get you disqualified) and if they ram you, you get disqualified. Ok I think that is enough of my rant now...like I said maybe I'm just a crap driver but like to hear others thoughts on this?

    • Most boring game ever. Repetitive, empty, predictable, and full of cliches. Total waste of time and money, IMO.
    • Mafia: The Old Country expansion Man of Honor announced, brings back Salieri from original by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe During Summer Game Fest, 2K and Hanger 13 brought out a new Mafia: The Old Country trailer, revealing the game's first expansion. Named Man of Honor, this is slated to add two new chapters to the Enzo storyline that the game follows. There is an iconic character returning to the series with this expansion, with players set to run into Ennio Salieri, the future Don of the Salieri crime family. Fans of the original Mafia, or its Definitive Edition remake, may remember that name as one of the biggest characters in the storyline. This expansion is set prior to his rise to being the kingpin in the City of Lost Heaven. "Set in Sicily during the winter of 1905, Enzo Favara has proven himself a reliable soldier of the Torrisi crime family in the months since his initiation," says the studio about the new chapters. "Now, the Don entrusts him and Cesare with a delicate assignment of assisting Ennio Salieri, a man of honor recently released from prison and intent on reclaiming what is his." Working at Salieri's side, players will be heading into fresh environments as they return to the role of Enzo as a high-ranking soldato. The studio also promises brand-new weapons, fresh vehicles, and charms to collect in this expansion. Moreover, the expansion will add new content to the updated Free Ride mode. Alongside new collectibles and locations, this will add more challenges to beat alongside Salieri, which are described as runs that will "test the skills of even the most elite mafiosi." The Mafia: The Old Country Man of Honor story expansion will release on August 14, 2026, across PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5. It will cost $10 for owners of the base game to jump into.

    • Telltale returns with The Wolf Among Us, re-revealing the sequel and a new remaster by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Telltale Games, the studio known for its episodic games from the 2000s, had a surprise appearance at the Summer Game Fest showcase today. The studio has gone through a collapse, an acquisition, and a revival but has largely gone silent in recent years. Today's sudden announcement was for the popular The Wolf Among Us series, with news about the sequel and a remaster dropping. Set after the events of the 2013-released title, the sequel will bring back Biby Wolf for a new adventure in Fabletown. This town of fairy tale characters is becoming unstable, with Snow White not being able to keep order as before. "When a brutal series of crimes threatens to fracture the fragile balance holding Fabletown together, Bigby Wolf, sheriff of Fabletown, finds himself drawn into a dangerous conspiracy that reaches deep into the city’s criminal underworld," says the studio. "As suspicion spreads across the city and powerful forces work against him, Bigby must uncover the truth and decide what kind of sheriff - and what kind of wolf - he is willing to become." At the same time, Telltale also announced The Wolf Among Us Remastered, bringing back the classic with a fresh coat of paint. This will include all five episodes from the original game plus over an hour of extra content that will offer behind-the-scenes videos, cast interviews, image galleries, and deleted scenes. The remaster will also have updated visuals and improved UI elements and accessibility features, alongside upgrades to the animations, audio, and frame rates. Telltale has been working on this project for almost a decade now, but if the new release schedule holds, fans will be able to jump into The Wolf Among Us 2 sometime in 2027. As for The Wolf Among Us Remastered, this is slated to release during this holiday season.
