Presume you need all stars in each end trophy event before getting a ps Trophy?
You need to finish 1st in the tournament to unlock the ps trophey.

Man the drifting events in this are like crack. I just spent over an hour redoing the Pagani drift event again and again until I finally managed to get the third star. Returned to the menu, selected same event again and did another 30 minutes trying to beat my own score (I failed). Looked at the clock and it was 2 in the morn :/

Most racers have a technique that can be learnt especially for drifting, but there doesn't seem to be any in DC, if anybody has mastered the drifting in this game please post here. I think the drifting is like the servers, broken.

Over on official ps forums it was quite scarey seeing calls for Sony to close evolution etc. Far too extreme. Anyway it shows Sony themselves can get it wrong with botched fw 2.0.

See there was also a theory over how much they were forced to change DC after a certain GT studio insisted it would be nothing like their non-existent racer. This is what forced the year out and also the struggle to get it working.

Is version 1.06 fixes a crash bug.

Woohoo got past semi pro. Ok only 6 of 9 stars for now but scraped through on 30 points. Much easier using bumper cam than 3rd person. Bmw m5 helped too
Semi Pro is the last set of races I completed and got 6 of 9 stars and 30 points lol. I'm trying to get used to bumper cam but I'm used to 'chase' with Forza and that's where I feel comfortable with driving games., not so with DC though. I'm having to be far more aggressive with the ai too. I touch the brake on certain corners and the ai fly past as if on rails or I end up being rammed and lose control. DC is a tough game. Forza is like a nice Sunday drive but DC is more a high speed destruction derby lol.

Forza games are way too easy in general. DC'S AI is brutal, as in the others are maniacs.

Do you guys think We'll be able to use shareplay (on our ps4s) while using playstationtv (@ the same time?) ... Or will it add to much lag?

Come on DS1, I've got us up to level 30 today but not seen much movement on our fans points this week. We're currently at 320 on the leaderboard, but can easily move up by over 100 places if we all add a big chunk of points as there isn't much difference in points between the teams at our level.

OMTM, how on earth have you got so many points yourself. I play all the time but am still only at 6 million and languishing at around 12,000 on the leaderboards?

I'm at the stage now where I have to do some serious grinding to get any points. I'm trying to do the accolades but it's taking ages.

I just grinded by doing some Indian track over and over again (can't remember the name but it was the 2nd variation of that track) & went for the accolades. Just sat and basically done a shift doing that lol I got around 20,000 XP each time plus my preorder bonus until I used that up, then all the XP from completing accolades

I'm not playing it again until they fix the leaderboards and introduce the challenges as all my XP has counted for nowt

I think the Leader boards are working now. You were showing up at around 1200 on the global ranking.

I'm currently redoing the all the races I have done so far to see if I can set faster times and also trying to get the stars I failed to get up to and including the Pro trophy.

I'm starting to think the challenges are becoming as much of a myth as the Plus version. It's like they don't want people platting and buggering off without seeing everything at 100% functionality.

Well march yourself around the corner and give them a kick up the hole.

Aye, some show drift points instead of speed.
