1.06 update coming april 7th!

screen pics of wings??

Sounds a bit of a poor update if you ask me

 

[Sixflags48]

I think that is all the useless (to most) features out of the way that I can think of (hopefully for PD too). Now they can get to work on the stuff we have been asking for, and waiting for, for some time now.

Why? Data logger, GPS visualizer, 3D support and custom wings? That's ok with me. That's free promised features checked off the list. They managed to get all of the meh ones out of the way in one hit.

Its a build your own wings....adjustable sizing

The Data Logger does exist.

Only for best lap replays.

What? That is the most convoluted logic...You're saying that PD is lying about the feature and that it's only for race car drivers because you need to own a certain car to use it? I am honestly stunned that you're taking this as buying a car for JUST a feature in GT6. You do realize that those cars are more than just an accessory for GT6 right? They even sell about 2,000 a month in the U.S. It's actually a pretty popular car at track days too.

This feature is (or will be) fully usable for someone who owns one of those cars and lives near a track in GT6. There are people who already have a FRS/BRZ that they already track. Thus making it usable for more people than just race car drivers. The train of thought that you're following is genuinely baffling.

I never said that this feature was only for race car drivers nor have I said anything about PD lying. Further more, I never said you need to own a certain car to use it. The only thing I stated was that, based from what I have read in this thread, this update would only be usable by a small amount of people.

 

[velly]

Sorry, but I rather better online support, pit bug fix and dare i say anything about the engine sounds???

 

[RACECAR]

So I experimented with the Rear Wings and here's what I'm seeing:

Wings now have customizable parts under "Custom Rear Wing" which include Wing Mounts, Wing and Winglets, all with varying shapes. They are also height and width adjustable. Not exactly a feature I know everyone cares about but for a lot of us who wanted to do more with wings, this is a most welcome update 👍

 

[BDoggPrelude]

Pretty weak update but being able to customize the rear wing is nice. Now you can get that extra downforce without having a 3' tall wing on the back of a car.

 

[ironman44321]

Not sure why you quoted me but I really don't like your tone. I never said that this feature was only for race car drivers nor have I said anything about PD lying. Further more, I never said you need to own a certain car to use it. The only thing I stated was that, based from what I have read in this thread, this update would only be usable by a small amount of people. I think you better take a step back and hop up off my ass my friend.

Sorry about that, I forgot to delete your quote. No offense intended.

So what?
Sorry, but you guys can't be serious to complain about the new features just because you would have prefered something else...

 

[Sixflags48]

The custom rear wing is a step in the right direction for me, but body widening kits too please so we can make our own GT3 cars, then have a width restriction in online races. Interiors, well, the all great iRacing's RUF GT3 car has a normal interior, so whatever. I want the aggressive fenders now. (maybe the option to add a GT banner to the windscreen and a number plate.

At your own leisure though PD, finish that track, and bring us some more Vision GT cars.

So they took the existing wings, broke them apart and now we can put them back together?

I'm not reading anything else, surprise me PD!

Awesome.

More rear wings(haven't looked at yet)
GPS Visualizer (No comment)
Data Logger- froze my PS3 as I loaded a lap
3D-doesn't hurt/help me but helps others.

ooooh, You good sir need to spend more time on these update threads...on second thought...don't.

 

[GTP_CargoRatt]

Sorry about that, I forgot to delete your quote. No offense intended.

And I apologize for my aggression. We're all good from here then.

 

[sporkface69]

At least now I know I won't have to bother playing GT6 yet.

basic fundamentals of the game need to be correct first before adding extras IMO.
so many people seeing lag in the new game over GT5. And using the pits kills the performace of the vehicle.

 

[Sixflags48]

All this "majority won't use" stuff. It could be much Much worse! GRiD - GRiD 2 comes to mind here. Thank you PD for not being GRiD!

 

[elston87]

The wings are a nice touch, 3DTV is meh, but it's still a feature of the game they added, along with the data logger and GPS visualizer. Now from hereon out the next updates for GT6 should be interesting.

Can't wait for, if any, undocumented features of this update to be found.

Quick Match

Course maker
Mobile Apps

*Mobile apps from the sounds of it pretty much has to come at the same time as, or after the community update.

 

[Urbanliner]

At least I can add wings that are not "GT Wings" to some of my cars.

Edit:
The update log says that the TCS will not activate off-track unless you are on a sand trap.

But do they work like, you know, actual wings? None of that 20-point value crap.

I have a Blackberry, I don't think I will be getting those apps anytime soon anyway, but a man can dream, can't he?

In addition-
Wing maker is awesome, love how I can make it shorter or wider. Data Logger is cool but i'll probably never use it (never did in GT4/GT5 either)
