am i the only person who is completely distraught by the physics engine??

i set up a car the exact same way as i usually would and drove it on the same tracks i usually do and i cant drift for SHIT

i'm usually pretty good but all taht's happening here is snap oversteer when countersteering and super out of control slides

Ritz S14 · 02-22-2005, 08:13 PM

Damn.. I was trying to sell my PS2 for $100.... but now I have a reason to keep it

my friend's had the JDM version for over a month and everyone who's played it says drifting is way harder now. That's why i'm gonna pick up GT3 as backup

bobafett · 02-22-2005, 08:20 PM

my store wont sell it to me until 8:30 pm

HyperTek · 02-22-2005, 08:28 PM

hey hows the music in it?? any better then gt3 ? i got tired of the music.. but i love the music from GT2 so i think they could have done a good job.

Stock-S13 · 02-22-2005, 08:44 PM

Uhh, if your main concern of the game is the music perhaps you should not be buying Any of the Gt series.

Seriously who the hell cares? You can mute the sound after all.. But hey If you want to really know first hand ill sell you a copy of the Offical Soundtrack, and you can find out for yourself, hows that sound?

Cool game, i played the J version some time ago. Still can't get used to not being able to read what the hell it says, but with school and stuff i really havent played more than 2 hours...

Agent_S13 · 02-22-2005, 10:03 PM

Just a heads up, friend went to the Sony store in the Metreon and they had a lot of copies in stock. So any of you Bay Area guys could get yours tonight.

I did find a car list -- don't know how accurate but its new on Gamefaqs.com

List of Cars

Is this the same list that's been circulating around the 'net months ago? Confirmation would be appreciated.

drewtoes · 02-22-2005, 10:50 PM

finally got it today around 5pm have been playing it eversince....its freaking the best racing so far! this is a must have game for all playstation owners!

TurDz · 02-22-2005, 11:03 PM

The game is pretty damn good. I've been playing with the steering wheel, pretty tough, especially when going off course.

Graphics are noticably better, and the menus are a lot more visually appealing!

nightwalker · 02-22-2005, 11:26 PM

Was playing with my friend who just got his reserved copy. Pretty bad ass. I think they should have added more Tuners to "Tuner Village", and made the parts more unique. But oh well. It's still a tight game.

brainfood · 02-23-2005, 03:26 AM

I went at 7 and preorderd my copy since the one I preorderd from my work wouldnt be in till tommorow and the guy told me if I wanted it tonight I needed to stand in line with a bunch of guys that had been there since like 5 I was like f that I have to go back to work (was still on the clock) he was like well you probably wont get it tonight then since we are only giving out a limited number tonight and main release is tom. So I call them on my break at 8 and they are like come down we have plenty. I go down there is no line no waiting just walk in and pick it up. I felt pity for all those people that waited in line for no reason hah! But got off work at 1a.m. and got some games in I bought an s14 k's aero and suspension lsd drivetrain and it is super quick with the limited supension tuning I have gotten to do. The game is so much more fun with the logitech gtpro and the racing seat its really an amazing game. I get so much more involved in the game with the seat and wheel its wierd I am almost always somewhat bored with the dual shock but the wheel I am always concentrating and racing hard. My lap times arent as fast with the wheel yet but they will be and its sooooo much more fun. I suggest the logitech to anyone serious about this game as the main programing was done around the wheel with the d.s. as an option not like gt3 where the wheel was just kinda added in afterwards and never really worked that great. Alright I am off to sleep I have to work at 8am so everyone enjoy their gt4's I will play it all day thurs on my day off and probably every night I have off for a long time.

drewtoes · 02-23-2005, 03:53 AM

WORD! the game is tight!cant get enough of it...haha just stopped playing right now...got class at 8am (5 hrs!)

TurDz · 02-23-2005, 03:59 AM

same here...got a midterm at 9am and freakin played for a few hours...talk about getting addicted and being irresponsible. i'm gonna pay for that...

anyway, I agree, with the wheel its so much harder to earn good lap times and pass for silver/gold licenses, but it's well worth it. just need to get used to the crazy 900 degree steering for such a small wheel.

Brian · 02-23-2005, 04:06 AM

sweet.
been playing since 8 pm... its 3 am now.
i got 13 cars in my garage already.
some crappy shit, but some cool shit
Z33 race car
Z33 option/JUN Dai spl.

nissantuner22 · 02-23-2005, 08:07 AM

wow you know whats sweet, you can transfer licences from GT3 to GT4, and up to 100,000 credits! My first car was an R-34 GT-R Nur spec! HAHAHA!

drewtoes · 02-23-2005, 09:50 AM

damn...you guys are lucky...i skipped out on the gt3 so im doing all the beginners stuff right now hahaha still fun though....too bad you cant transfer from any gt game hahah that would tight...also does anyone notice any differences from tuning from your own manufacturers and the tuning village manufacturers...?

nightwalker · 02-23-2005, 10:09 AM

oh SNAP! Time to go transfer all my shit from GT3!

smellslikecurry · 02-23-2005, 11:18 AM

no words can describe this game...i think im in love

mooboy · 02-23-2005, 11:33 AM

Damnit, I bought the game and it had a tiny scuff mark on the bottom so nothing loads! OMFG#$##$@@!!@#$!

I got the logitech super wheel too. It was pretty fun with NFSU 2. 900 degree steering. Awesome.

ghostuss · 02-23-2005, 11:58 AM

Just brought the wheel on amazon.com for 104 dollar SHIPPED. Game is suppose to come in today at EB near me. I called them, they said their manager went to pick it up. I am gonna go to EB and wait there until the game comes in I am grabbing my copy right htere. SWEET. I am gonna hardly have time to play it thou. Freaking Midtermz and Finals. Stupid UC quarter system.

S14Speed997 · 02-23-2005, 12:44 PM

The game is sick!! i cant wait to get off work, ignore my gf, and play til i pass out.

brainfood · 02-23-2005, 01:56 PM

hah I took off early today to get some more time in and I have tommorow off. Looks like my real car is going to get neglected no time to wash it this week

also wondering if it matters what tuner you use or not or if it is just for fun so you can use the tuners you like? been rolling the used blue s14 zenki aero with 244hp and a 2way with full suspension setup to my liking the car hauls ass. Need to work on turn in a little but I out brake all the computer cars in every corner thats where all my passes are done on the brakes like tsuchiya heh

HyperTek · 02-23-2005, 02:01 PM

man! imma go pick it up in a few... i called bestbuy and they have alot on stock they said... finally get to use my gift card... im glad i didnt spend it cuz im now a poor college student... so my life outside of home is gonna be screwed.. haha

DRO916 · 02-23-2005, 02:08 PM

this games fuckin nuts. skipped my 5:30pm class to go n get it yesterday after havin it reserved for a YEAR, been playin the whole fuckin time, try playin someone in Nürburgring with jgtc cars...

Flipzide · 02-23-2005, 03:53 PM

lol i dunno why but the first thing i tried to do was drift a s14a...man i love the tuning options so far... i gotta relearn how to drive in this game because so far everything feels so different from gt3. so far its great..im still having a tough time choosing a first car XD i just got it..... 110,000 to spend and so many cars to choose from ;_;

kandyflip445 · 02-23-2005, 04:24 PM

I didn't read how to get your stuff from GT3....can someone tell me how?

ICKY · 02-23-2005, 04:27 PM

LoL. Im having alittle trouble getting used to the feel also. Too bad i got rid of my old PS2 Memory card. Oh well, I wouldn't mind building up another profile from scratch.

AFSil80 · 02-23-2005, 04:40 PM

Picked mine up when I got off work this morning, I won't be able to tackle it until this weekend though...but I've got my steering wheel ready!

HyperTek · 02-23-2005, 05:45 PM

You go to your garage, gives you the option to load data from GT3, it basically just give you some credit for playing gt3, it unlocks a few license test that you already did, and up to 100,000 credit. Im doing the international B license stuff right now..
