Its beautiful, MUST GET ALL OF THEM...

 

at laguna seca?? when???

 

they raced at the end of 2004, they are just now airing it on speed.

this was the website for it.

i thought this was at california speedway in fontana?

 

ohh shit, you're right, I got a little excited there for a minute.

 

you don't have to hit OK... it will pit and do its thing, and then exit the pits by itself. HOWEVER - and people are not happy with this - it WILL kick you out of 3x mode and into realtime mode - you have to manually go back in and set it back to 3x mode. Kinda dumb. So, in essence, the Bspec mode does require some amount of supervision, IF you want to complete the races quickly.

What you can do to combat this is, get a high-hp car that you are sure will win the race - put Hard race tires on it - this will cause it to not pit as often - it will still pit, but it will last many laps longer i.e. fewer pitstops. ALSO - KEEP an eye on your Bspec driver.... he is quite dumb - he will sometimes pit on the LAST LAP of say, a 20-lap race at Super Speedway, causing you to lose the race - ask me how I know - the P light will come on before he is about to pit... if you notice the P light come on at the last lap of the race - TURN IT OFF by hitting the pit button, I forgot what it is off the top of my head, I think its the circle. So you can control whether he pits or not. Remember, he is quite dumb - so you either a) get a hellaciously fast car that blows away the other AI cars so badly that it doesn't matter if he pits on the last lap because he is laps ahead of 2nd place - or b) supervise the Bspec driver guy.

Supposedly your Bspec driver gets better as you rack up the Bspec points, and I do feel like this is happening, I have about 4500 Bspec points right now and I can just leave the pace at 5 and overtake set to ON and he will win the race. If I tried this when my Bspec pts were lower, he would wipe out a lot and not do well. Of course I am also using an insane car, so I'm not 100% sure what is the deciding factor there, but I think it does have something to do with the Bspec pts.

ok, hope that makes sense.

 

see my post above - when you see the "P" light come on, you can hit the pit button (I *think* its the circle) - and deactivate the light, and the driver will not pit. Bspec mode is not necessarily always a "free ride"... it does require some supervision sometimes to get the win.

 

thanks for the info. i did one endurance race and figure it would throw me back into it but it didn't. i was just wondering if you can controll this because the 24 hour nurburg race will take forever if it just kicks me out. i can tell with the b-spec that the more points you get the better your driver is. i think right now i have about 5800 b-spec points and my guy is pretty good but not the best.

 

for 24-hour Nurburgring, I just left it running overnight... when I woke up it was at 14 hours or something, and then I used 3x mode to finish it off...

i don't care what anyone else says, I really appreciate Bspec mode, I just don't have the time to race EACH and EVERY race in Aspec mode... Bspec is a lifesaver for people that don't (or can't) play video games 24/7 - which I think would be most of us

I don't care if this makes me a GT4 party pooper, there is just no way in hell I would run a 24 hour race in Aspec mode, anywhere. Not even a 4 hour race. It's just too much. You know what I did for Nurburgring though - is switch to Aspec mode and run a few laps myself... just for fun - and it was fun. Then I switched back to Bspec.

 

I believe 99% of the GT4 players played/are going to play the 24 hour races in B-Spec. So you are not alone srika.

 

ok, that gives me some comfort, lol

 

i agree with you. you don't need to run every race. i like b-spec mode if i have a killer car and just let it go. it saves so much time and you get things done faster. some races you have to do yourself. i like b-spec because i deffinatly don't want to do every race. to tell you the truth i try to use b-spec where ever i can because it is easy but when i'm in a jam i drive myself. and there is no way in hell i'm driveing the full 24 hours.

 

yeah i was feeling kind of bad about using b spec then i said they would not have put it in the game if they didnt want you to use it....im glad other people are using it though

 

i've been looking for this car but can't find it. my friend bought one but i can't find it. i did notice it said that the used car list has been updated. does that mean they took it out of the list? i started with a used skyline then went into a used integra type r but still can't find that civic type r.

 

The used car list changes every game week until day 701. Thats the last day of the cycle. After that it will return to the first list.

 

are there any cheats out to have infinite money or to pass all licensing??

 

No need for cheats. Play the game and enjoy it!

 

wow, just entered an Extreme event race @ the Ring, and one of the AI cars is a car I've never seen before, in any pics, or anywhere!!! I've never even heard of this car anywhere...!!! it's the Peugeot 905 Race Car '92 - and apparently it's the 2nd fastest car in the game!!! I have no idea where to even get this.... I would guess Peugeot but I haven't looked lol..... here are some pics:

^nice. i want to know where to get it also.

 

yea its available under France, Peugeot, Classic... 3.5mil

 

Dunno if that exist in NTSC-J....I hope it does....but I doubt it!..ugh

 

I also did finish the 24-hours Nur using B-Spec. Another method I think would be fun is to get some friends who are GT4 fanatics, finish the 24-hours race by a-spec mode....changing driver every few pit stops. That would be realistic!! and cool. Only problem is that you have to make sure that all of the players uses the same controller configs. so you dont have a chaos trying to change controllers....that happened to me once....we quit the race at lap 10...lol

 

lol... good point, I have heard of people doing this... oh yeah, also all the drivers need to know the Ring well enough to win the race LOL...

 

so let me get this straigt, If I let the 24 hour races run at 1x in live mode, my driver will pit on his own?

 

yes, when tires are bad or low fuel

 

I remember about 12234 posts back it was said in the Jap mode you can switch between A-spec and B-spec during a race. Is this true for US version too?

 

yes, every time you pit u have the option of going into b-spec or a-spec

 

What cars are effective for beating Japanese GT Championship?

 

True for the NTSC-US/C but not for NTSC-J. My Japanese GT4 wont let me change between A-spec and B-spec. Not cool

 

gameshark.

they even have codes for increased acceleration and to have a full garage.

 

Depends on how much money you have and/or what kind of a car you own. I recommend winning the Japanese Championship before going into Japanese GT Championship. That way, you get to use the Nissan Fairlady Z Concept LM Race Car '02 for the GT Championship. I also believe that Option Stream Z could handle the GT Championship as well...if used correctly.

 

is there a thread that people list their suspension/tranny setups? i would be interested in reading that.

 

But that would be very boring....if he needs to use gameshark or any cheat for GT4, he shouldnt have bought the game.

 

there isn't, but I'll post a few of mine later... I tend to soften the suspension on the full race cars, I feel it makes 'em handle better... the default settings are a bit too stiff imo.

 

unless he didn't have a zillion hours to spend on the game.

 

 

when you do it, can you create it under a new thread?

call it " Post your GT4 setups here"

and we should ask the mods to limit the thread only to setups and have no comments.

that would be more useful.

 

or, if he didn't wanna go through and play the whole game.... when I got NFS Underground 2, I just downloaded a full-game save from somewhere so I could unlock everything in the game. I had no desire to go through all the levels and bs and unlock things that way. And, I haven't played it since LOL. Honestly someone who really loves any game series and really WANTS to play through it, will not have any desire to cheat to get money or advance levels etc... that's the bottom line. This applies to anything, imo.

 

yea i almost started a thread but we really need to get a proper format setup first. Perhaps we can wait? So it's standardized? Somebdoy needs to get the listing from the game of the names etc., for settings....
