I hope I don't come to regret it but I think I'm gonna preorder GT Sport after seeing the release trailer and I watched the whole 3 hr release and first races that were streaming also,the sound effects are still very disappointing but they've still got a few months to work on them,we'll see

I'm in the same boat as Schmiggz and JoeW. I hope it's good, but people have been complaining about the sounds for YEARS. If they blow that, I just don't know.. I'm most interested in the physics. If it's not at least as difficult as PCARS (because a lot of serious sim racers seem to think even PCARS is arcade-y), I will lose all interest.

There are so many things that still piss me off about PCARS that I will definitely get GT Sport. Just being able to go into a lobby and change from one car to another in the garage and change tracks without leaving is huge. Simplified settings...do we really need all the over complicated FFB settings, do we really need to be able to change bump stop, caster and trail settings? I just don't think I'm a hard core simulation guy.
I love the physics and sounds but take away half the settings crap and I'd be happy.
Will PCARS 2 solve all our problems? I doubt it. Will GT Sport solve all our problems? No.
Our problem is that if GT hadn't already spoiled us with its slick menus, smart interface and overall fun and easy to play style, then PCARS would seem perfect. But GT did so many things well that it's hard to forgive PCARS for not being just as good in those regards.
I must stop dwelling on this. Next time I fire up a car and drive, GT will be forgotten...for a short time anyway.

Well said Joe. It's funny how we just can't get the whole package. I want PCars physics and sound in the GT game. I also wanted more GT3 cars in Gran Turismo, and it seems they're going to be there now. I could also do away with any car that doesn't have a detailed interior -
- who do I sound like?The way I look at it, this is the beginning for Project Cars. They focused on the driving experience rather than the game menus, photo mode, livery editor, etc. With the revenue from the first game and DLC, I think PCars can staff more game developers to work on the "other stuff". I think they put their priorities in the right place, and PCars is going to improve in it's user interface aspect in the next generation game.
I'm really anxious for Assetto because it's supposed to be the best "sim." I want to know what difficult really is. So they're going to get my $60 too.
No matter what, we are going to get better games faster because there is now competition in the marketplace. The beauty of competition, and capitalism in general... the customer gets better products. (Pretty easy to figure out what my degree is in, huh?).
All of this is why I made the decision to invest in a new wheel, pedals, shifter, PS4, etc. I think there is a lot on the horizon. It's going to be a fun three to four years. By then, my son will be entering teenager territory, and who knows what my new hobby will be. But I've kinda committed to this for a while.

Drivers,
Your results... Congrats to @JoeW for a hard fought win in D2 this week. I see why he was so antsy to know the results
👍1 Driver raced his way off probation this week. Nice work! 👍👍
As a general reminder for next week. We will default to a two lobby scenario. As suggested, if we have 16 or less drivers at 9:00 we will quickly close down the D1 lobby and combine. However we start the night as far as lobbies go, is how we will continue the evening. The standings below contain the appropriate divisional placement for S10R4. There is a chance divisional placement will see changes for the beginning of S11 in attempts to keep both lobbies to a decent head count, but also not split up similar talent.
As a general reminder the following active S10 drivers are eligible to submit votes for the S10R4 combo lineup. 9 of 22 drivers have submitted thus far. The cutoff is 11:00 pm EST tonight. Let your voice be heard! Vote!

So GTSport is still a fill in while PD continues work on GT7. I will definitely wait to hear what others have to say about it before I purchase it.
I personally have no allegiance to GT as I only played GT5 offline for a very short time before getting GT6. I just want to use the best one out there that's available for the PS4.

I may be wrong and I'm sorry if i am. Not trying to create more work for you. Just want to make sure that if it was someone else that they get their points.It there are any errors I blame my dog for waking me early
There's probably a good chance I messed up the scoring, it was early and I was probably rushing. I'll go over it tonight. My apologies.

I'm in yhe same boat. First one I played was 6, so I have no inherent loyalty to the brand. I'll wait for first reactions and then make a decision.
By the time it comes out, I'll have PCars, Dirt, Assetto. That should be more than enough to not really need another, unless it's a good one. Honestly, the unfulfilled promises and delays from GT6 already make me doubt PD will deliver on Sport/7. I rather be pleasantly surprised than pissed off again.

Jeez! 16 posts since my last visit!!!
1. Time trial:
Open a room, 3 or 4 stewards in, drivers enter, run 10 laps, exit, stewards take note of best lap time. Done.
2. GTSports: Same old, same old! Those Japanese can't even handle car and tire sound, never mind physics!
Fun thing is, I don't know if you guys remember like a year or so ago, PD announcing that they hired this guy that was a God in sound development for games.
Let's see if costumer suggestion make them work harder on it or I just won't buy it. My arcade days are long gone.
By the other hand, if iracing is the pinnacle of simulators, I don't figure major differences in graphics or sounds between it and PCars.
3. Yeah Zii, I think the efford I've been putting down to improve my driving is slowly punching in.

First off without even watching the video maybe don't use bumper cam? Switch to roof, hood, or cockpit to get a better view of where your car is.

Man, from what I've been reading around, people are kinda hating GTSports big time, mainly.....sound! Of course!
A Portuguese site is even saying that the beta version that came out is to be suspended!
I saw on youtube the big event they pulled out and the races with those top players and man....I could be wrong but that sheet keeps looking arcade as hell!
I think I'll stay with PCars and Assetto. Good enough.

I watched the event, at least most of it. It looks just like GT6 but a bit crisper. Same sounds with the tire noise and no grumble. I get the FIA connection though, having the timing and scoring on the left, an actual safety car lead a formation lap, and I even saw a full course yellow at Nordschleife when there was a big pile-up. It was a big flash on the top of the screen. That's a great way to alert drivers coming up on an accident from making it worse. Maybe PCars2 can learn from that and add some cool technical stuff.

One more thing on the PCars rant...taking photos has to be the worst experience ever.
Why do I torture myself...just stop comparing and enjoy the game I have...see what AC and GT-S looks like when they come out....
I'm kinda pissed they are charging $59 for GT Sports when it's clearly an interim project before the real GT7 comes out.
I haven't had a PS3 for awhile now so it's getting harder to remember ALL the really cool things GT did that PCars doesn't.

Basically feels like those cakes that look amazing and sweet but the the cream inside is old and sour.
