We know the Countach and the TS050 are being worked on (as well as the lexus Super GT car if it doesn't make it day one).

Hopefully they release the cars quick.

 

[CCLOPES]

So this means I will get my Az-1 back??

 

[TheNuvolari]

Soon™?

 

[Greatbee]

I hope for this car!

Countach?

But they keep throwing this 6 months per car figure around. I'm not sure we will see a lot of cars quickly if the figure is correct.

no its not because if the game is in development for 4 years with 150 they do 2.1 months the most

 

[MisterOne77]

They better add more cars.

I need my Ford GT

 

[sems4arsenal]

Countach?

Yep, there was an article saying they were working on it in the studio.

 

[TetsuKobura]

I'd love to race V8 supercars around Dragon Trail, if they ever add them.

 

[George Jakob]

to be honest i think they have much more than 150 cars ready because it takes them 2.1 months at most to finish one

2.1? Where did you see that?

 

[queleuleu]

They still have two weeks to announce DLCs schedule before the release. If they keep being vague about the future, I hope the backlash will be important for a game without Le Mans or any modern LMP1 so far.

 

[azeeza]

I'm ready for my Jdm's back !

 

[George Jakob]

2.1? Where did you see that?

i did the math mate

 

[PzR Slim]

i did the math mate

It's PDi themselves who have mentioned the figure of 6 months.

 

[Chikane_GTR]

Good then i'll buy GTS after they add
<<<<

 

[George Jakob]

It's PDi themselves who have mentioned the figure of 6 months.

my mistake i did the math again & it takes them 97.4 days because 4× 365=1460 1460÷150=97.3333333.......

 

[PzR Slim]

Once again, PDi themselves have told us it takes 6 months to model a car.

 

[jaytmtb]

I would like a to see a few versions of the BMW M5 and M3, only time will tell.
I'm sure Kaz has a dizzying array of ideas for GT Sport, I for one am looking
forward to cars, tracks, and other content arriving in due time from PD

 

[George Jakob]

but PD told as a lot of lies in the past don't beliave them without looking in to it first

 

[Lord Protector]

it's not that simple... they could have started modelling cars for GTS even sooner, or perhaps later in the development, they could have had 20 people modelling cars, after the game is out the number can vastly increase... we can only do this simple math but that's it and it's really naive to think it a reliable source of information

 

[azeeza]

With how many 3d modelers ? Within 4 years ? Should we have 160-170 cars with your maths ?

 

[TX Executioner]

I believe the 6 month figure is in reference to the amount of man hours involved. I don't think it literally means 6 months per car.

true but i did the math assuming the least amount of pepole work for that thats why i said the most

the car count of the launch has remained unchanged since 2016, kazu said they gave priority to the cars approved for the FIA Championship so it is pretty certain that many cars are already on the go but left aside, in addition to being surely going to be upgrading all the GT6 cars that will definitely need less work than to get them from scratch.
Without considering that another part of the team will be added to working on cars / tracks, considering that the game is complete, members who deal with the structure of the game can concentrate on content.

50 car modellers in GT6 credits. I'd assume they have more now but we don't know. What we do know is the Kaz has said 6 months a car. He has also said that yes each one is made by one person. That was in the news section. I can't find it now as Safari doesn't like the news section.

Those modellers can therefore make 100 cars per year. My guess is that the 150+ in GTS are simply chosen for grouping reasons in the various categories. The rest would be for add on later.
