Just got GRID.. why is it so difficult?

it'svery difficult and has a steep learning curve, definately not begginer friendly.. why do they make todays racer so damn hard(even on beginner)?

Are you using the ps3 controller or a steering wheel?

its a sim racer so its suppose to be realistic and racing a real car aint easy, especially if you had to drive one with a freaking controller. if you want a fun and easy to play racer, get burnout paradise or midnight club or any arcade racer.marcl18123

GRID is really more of an arcade racer disguised as a sim. The controls feel realistic, but in truth they're very forgiving. If anything you could say it falls sort of inbetween sim and full blown arcade.

Anyway, it's not that hard once you get a feel for it. I play alot of racing games though.

its all about smooth movements. So when u start to break release the accelerater slightly and turn aswell.

I don't think it's so hard and if you screw up on a certain corner you can always rewind back using flashback on offline races to make sure you do it correctly next time. You just have to learn to brake much earlier on sharp corners. I think it's the best racing game on the PS3 I like it better then the GranTurismoseries Codemasters know how to make a racing game fun.

It takes a couple evenings to get used to, after that it's pretty easy. Start turning before you get to a corner, as it takes the car a second to catch up. You don't actually slow down for corners, you just give the brake pedal a quick stab. It's very much an arcade racer - I can't believe anyone would call it a sim or in any way realistic. You can be doing 100 mph down a straightaway, tap the brakes for 1/4 second, and then you can go around a 90 degree corner LOL.
