I would like 1:, also from GT3 "X is pitting" thing that comes up.
3X for B-Spec will be handy even more with the 24 hour events, maybe even 4 or 5x can be added.

That is possible in GT5. I often watch my RR and turn off all the screen data and just have the race as it is without any info.

I don't see what is left on screen after that. Are you talking about the the small menu bar along the bottom? That's hardly noticeable.
 
I agree with everything.
Add also the jump +/-10 in car settings by pressing L1 or R1. That was very handy and was making extreme/silly tunes faster.
 
Some tracks from GT4 would be welcome (originals, rallies).

Also, special offers wheels at GT Auto. Would love to put those Murcielago wheels in a Camaro.

More the stats at the top, but really it doesn't bother me now I use an LED but it did bother me when I used a plasma as it would burn in. For most races I'd have to turn the tv off.
 
QUALIFYING!!!!!!!


How can you have a racing game that doesn't include qualifying is quite beyond belief!


Sure more tracks would be great etc... but QUALIFYING! how the hell doesn't it exist for all a-spec and b-spec events. It would make b-spec much more interesting as well.

Oh, hell yes! How did we miss that one?

It was something in GT4 that I really enjoyed in the championship races, the chance to put myself of pole and make life a little easier.
 
GT4 I think:

Aftermarket parts manufacturers having their own dealerships, and being able to buy parts from them. Nismo had a store where you could buy the nismo cars, and HKS had a store where you could buy a few cars, but also buy tuning parts for your car

This certainly should be added!!!

Qualyfing is something missing on all the GT games, also something that I certainly would love is to compete in different classes on races, for example on endurance races, LMP1 LMP2 and GT class like is on American Le Mans events or on the Europe Le Man Events where you see the Fast cars like Audi and Peugeot prototypes and the GT class featuring Porsche, Ferrari, BMW, Astons, Corvettes.... etc and if you win on your class you win the race, with that you have more fun you can race two or three times with different classes, also imagine you fighting on a Prototype car and deal with the GT class, or in the other hand fighting to reach the lead on the GT class and all the time look your mirrors to see when the prototypes are coming just to avoid crashes :)

You can add Blitz and Mine's to that list too. They had their own car dealerships.
 
I think it would make the A-Spec championships much more appealing if there were qualifiers involved. It would at least provide the chance to tune and test the set up after leaving one track and racing on another.

Driving Missions.
Click to expand...

Yes the GT4 driving mission were fun, also I remember some events on GT5 Prologue that were really though, like the ones where you have to overtake all the 15 cars in one lap, damn never could win the one with the F40 at Suzuka by that time I didn't count with a G27....

Yeah that was hard, I can only manage 2nd every time.:ill:
 
1. Car icon in split times (who is in front/behind) ~GT3
👍 i always relied on this when i wanted to see how far ahead and how far behind the AI was and to see if the car was a threat[/QUOTE]
 
I actually won all the missions, the SLR Nurburgring drove me crazy. What about those 1 lap time attacks in GT3 arcade mode that you had to do for 100%? That technical course with the RGT and tahiti maze were annoying.
 
Machine testing (400m, 1000m, top speed)
Boost adjustment
Used wheels
Tuner parts

Manufacturer events.

NO!

In GT2 you had to buy a car then race mod it which will cost 100,000cr for a good car then you win and get 10,000 back.

Waste of credits and it is hard as it is to get money without grinding.

Also GT1 had a boost controller.
