Two races to go, here are the latest standings. Tight at the top between @Greboth and @JBR-Kiwi Final standings will be from the best 9 results out of 12 which means @JBR-Kiwi will be looking at to win the final races with Greebs holding advantage there and can forget that 4th place finish ever happened 🙂 Position Driver Race 1 Race 2 Race 3 Race 4 Race 5 Race 6 Race 7 Race 8 Race 9 Race 10 Total Pts 1 Greboth 25 25 20 25 20 25 25 25 15 20 225 2 JBR-Kiwi 20 20 25 20 25 20 20 20 25 25 220 3 Mikepjbell 12 15 15 15 15 15 15 15 20 10 147 4 phil_oi 15 12 12 12 n/c 12 12 n/a 11 12 98 5 Crispy 7 8 8 11 11 10 9 11 9 11 95 6 GazzaGarratt 9 11 10 8 12 DNF 4 10 12 9 85 7 slamminbones 8 10 7 10 10 9 5 8 7 7 81 8 JTLurch 11 n/a 11 n/a n/a n/a 10 9 n/a 15 56 9 TEENWOLF25 10 n/a 9 DNF n/a n/a 8 12 DNF n/a 39 10 MadTitan n/a n/a n/a n/a n/a DNF 6 n/a 8 8 22 11 Lord Baguette n/a 9 DNF 9 n/a n/a DNF n/a n/a n/a 18 12 Jordie n/a n/a n/a n/a n/a n/a 7 n/a 10 n/a 17 13 Diddums n/a n/a n/a n/a 9 n/a n/a n/a 6 n/a 15 14 Misneach DNF n/a n/a n/a n/a n/a n/a n/a n/a n/a 0

Hey guys I'd like to get involved with this sounds like yous have great fun on tuesday nights. Bit of a noob at the game though!

Points for the team thingy should be just simple - whatever you get where you finishing is added up together per duo. I think I'm with @jordie1892 for it to be a lottery. If we didn't match up skill levels based on previous scores then I'd say otherwise. At the end of the day its easy to get carried away with these things. We have to remember the recent GT Sport League and the FIFA Euro League we've going on here has been successes because we all have fun and don't go too uber sweaty on these things. Definitely wanna see some full grids (16) over the coming months and this helps it happen.

Ubisoft have announced a new F2P The Division game Playtest registrations go through here https://register.ubisoft.com/division-experience/en-US Here's everything contained within the franchise past, present and future

I've definitely been known for smashing back ends in

I’ve positioned my self perfectly for next season mwahaha ha ha

Jordie if you want to do the math at the end of this season, or close to it, and I'll happily document the structure based on what has been agreed? We can then combine and put a new thread together to launch it, once we've got sign off?

I even told them about that 😄

I think @TurboR56Mini is contemplating pushing me off the building... after finding where I put the last chest...

Hoping for a good season. Seasonal activities can be a bit hit or miss but battlegrounds were ok, story telling had been good, and the epic return of VoG should make it a fun season.

Let me tell you a story. In World Of Warcraft classic, you need world buffs to be competitive and push progression. What's a world buff you ask? Well, it's a buff that's obtained out in the world. There are a few of them and they generally last one to two hours, and if you die, you lose them all. These buffs are immensely powerful, to the point that without them, you're not progressing until your whole raid's gear is very high level. Acquiring them is a monumental pain in the ass as you need to be in certain places at certain times, and often cost quite a bit of gold. It can take hours, or even a full day to get them all, depending on how dedicated you are. Anyway. So I'm in AQ40 (a 40 man raid) and we're facing the final boss. It's progression night. This is literally the only guy left in the whole raid and although I'm filling in a spot for someone who couldn't make it, these guys spent weeks getting to this point. Everyone's buffed. People have spent hundreds of gold, and countless hours getting their buffs and shit ready for this fight. Now the boss is a big eyeball in a square room. At the front of the room, the wall has a gap in it, this is where you enter to start the fight. Now as soon as the boss sees you, he fires off a laser beam which will kill almost anything one-shot. Even the toughest tanks struggle. It then, within a matter of seconds, wipes out the rest of the raid. So we're all standing to the side of the gap so the boss can't see us (LOS as we call it, or Line of Sight), discussing tactics and whatnot. I bump my keyboard. My character moves 2ft to the right. ZAP. Entire raid killed. All world buffs gone, people have repair bills, and we have to spend the next 45 mins getting our shit together. The boss does not die that night. I took Deadums to a whole new level I did. And yes, this is a true story.

Just an idea I thought may be worth getting opinions on for the next season of GT races. Alongside the usual drivers championship, could we pair drivers together for a team competition, with both drivers scores combined? Figured this could help achieve a few things: Closer competition within the overall standings (assuming more experienced drivers are paired with newer guys for fair teams) More experienced drivers could focus on helping their teammate, almost as mentors. This could be really useful with race strategy becoming increasingly important. More incentives for a consistent turnout (at least I myself would make sure to find time to practice and race with a teammate depending on me) Thoughts?

Ok, sweet, ill give the ps5 a download then, will be worth trying when i eventually back on it with the gang lol

Nice one 🙂 We're all noobs apart from the two ringers at the top and a back end smasher called Mike 🤪

You can essentially download both now, similar to other games that have a PS5 version. I would suggest to do that which is what I will do. I've been trying to search to see if cross-gen is or isn't enabled and I can't find concrete evidence, although based on previous games decisions I know, all bar one (FIFA) allow you to play with PS4 folk and vice versa. However, I'm sure I read before that if you're on PS5 and you create a lobby that now can hold up to 24 players on PS5, it won't work for PS4 people. This for me is the challenge as I usually do the lobbies on FG Friday when i'm on but need us all to join. Lol, just realised I ask this question over a month ago on their Steam discussion board.... So it should be cross-gen enabled and hopefully it'll notice when a PS4 player jumps in a lobby it will restrict cars to 16 to save messing around with our versions.

I'm looking the team/livery/manufacturer idea. How about the total points are an average of the race points ( race point total / 2)

Aaaah ok, i thought that might be the case. Didnt realise that it would be a tenner to pay in June to keep the ps5 version. Honestly the only time that i have played it recently was on a friday night with the FG peeps so think i wll stick to just keeping the ps4 version if you cant play across generations

Guardian down!

I'm all for having this as a manufacturers championship, think it's a fantastic idea. In terms of organising teams, I think using the table as a base is a better method than a lottery, as two faster drivers together and two slower drivers together defeats the purpose a little. I know I myself will commit to the full season, if there's any others who have missed a significant number we could use the average race results from where they (I) have participated to get a good idea of ability levels. I'm happy to do the math here and propose teams, unless one of the more experienced guys with a bit more knowledge on this than me ( @Mikepjbell ?) is happy to do so?
