This is the discussion thread for a recent post on GTPlanet:
This article was published by Andrew Evans (@Famine) on December 1st, 2018 in the Gran Turismo Sport category.
there’s lots and lots of small pieces to the puzzle and so many little things that we can improve. So we have this massive, massive to-do list that we need to check off one at a time. It just goes on forever!
It's pretty much the exact opposite of that.One point makes me sad about it is he obviously wants to have short streams.
Kazunori Yamauchi“In a live event it’s difficult. I want to show everything, but that would make the live show 4-5 hours long!”
It's pretty much the exact opposite of that.
When you really think about, Gran Turismo is the only reason for a lot of things. The Evo for example, they didn’t start selling it in the US until we started begging for it - and that was because it was so badass in Gran Turismo. It’s the same for a lot of other manufacturers.“If Lewis and his team hadn’t contacted us to start this project, I don’t think it would have happened. It really has a lot to do with luck; we didn’t know until he came to us that he played Gran Turismo a lot as a kid,” notes Yamauchi."
PD really is the most prestigious game development working today huh?
Such interviews are pointless as you get politicians answers where they give a response which dances round the question.Can we expect an interview about the future of GT? (non eSport related)
I thought it had been the opposite! Wow PD!“If Lewis and his team hadn’t contacted us to start this project, I don’t think it would have happened. It really has a lot to do with luck; we didn’t know until he came to us that he played Gran Turismo a lot as a kid,” notes Yamauchi."

Lets me hope for a 2019 of developments, but the interview is completely based on online races, so I expect improvements on the online races. Anyway, still hope one day we’ll have some not online could give a game more importance...
Saw this on youtube. Looks like Blancpain series have their own FIA GT Nations Cup now. Inspired by GTSport, I guess?
We're at an GT Sport FIA event. The questions are thus about the GT Sport FIA competition.why you always ask ... Why you don´t ask ... You could have asked
We've never been instructed what questions to ask, and we've never had our questions vetted in advance. But there's no surer way to get a question - and possibly an entire interview, along with future interviews - shut down than asking about things not relevant to the topic at hand because some guy on a forum somewhere wants to know something.I often have the impression that THEY tell you in advance what you can ask them.
I remember them saying that it's got the 6 speed because they made an emphasis on the record set in that car on the nurb gp circuit. The used a 6 speed on that track and at the time la sarthe wasn't in the game.It is exciting to see where Gran Turismo goes in esports. As a fan since day one it is the next stage in my love story with the series.

Ask him why the TS050 Hybrid, which is Le Mans spec, only has a 6-speed gearbox as opposed to the 7-speed it should.
I'm just a casual player who wants to know what's next? I will never be a FIA champion, and even if the eSport aspect is a succes, I'd like to know if this gen I will be able to put a spoiler on a car or expect any classic track from GT. As I've already said: I think they work on the next GT probably on PS5.There was one recently where Kaz said he wanted the future of GT to blend GTSPORTs multiplayer with the classic single player campaign
You're not likely to either.I asked them a million times on facebook & twitter but no response at all.
Maybe, but if the event is not a broader Gran Turismo event, it's not likely that questions about game mechanics will be strictly on-topic. That's not to say they can't be made to be on-topic...But maybe you can consider my questions for next time.
In our experience that's simply not true of Sony/Polyphony Digital, and any media that's worth reading would refuse the interview on that basis. I would never agree to interview someone with pre-agreed questions.And its an open secret that some (not all of course) accredited media get in advance a list of question they are allowed to ask.

A year later, the core of GTSport is still the same: no HUD options (fuel warning ), camera options like a true bonnet view or dash cam, obviously no weather conditions. I still can't race at Le Mans by night. The best 3d models but no "forzavista" mode. And so on. Adding more tracks and cars is cool but won't change anything gameplay wise. Where are the clubs? https://www.gtplanet.net/gran-turismo-6-114/
I can understand Poly, they can't say we are working at full steam on the next GT but the absence of novelty each update gives me that feeling.
To be honest the next GT is probably a year or more into development. Likewise they’re probably working on 100 plus cars at any given time with us getting a select few for GT Sport.Next GT is 100% next gen,gone are the days PD could put out 2 games in 2 to 3 years.But following the things Kaz said about the next GT i'm confident it will have the structure people miss and probably the option to save offline.
And i don't agree PD is wokring on next GT they are busy as hell with GTSport,working on those 10 cars for each month isn't a easy task.
These 10 cars are not wasted for the next GT. After 12 months, what's new in terms of features? I'm not 100% sure but it must be decals on race suit and helmet.Next GT is 100% next gen,gone are the days PD could put out 2 games in 2 to 3 years.But following the things Kaz said about the next GT i'm confident it will have the structure people miss and probably the option to save offline.

A genuine question to Mr Kaz would be: how much you will go on develop GTS? New gen of games as GTA V could have a long life if well supported.
I read it as "what" is new to the franchise. Tracks and cars are a given. Something completely NEW to Gran Turismo, are indeed stickers to helmets and suits.I do believe it's in early pitching stages but full on development?PD isn't big enough to work on a brand new GT and GT Sport at the same time,when the time comes for a new GT all of PD staff will work on that.
I don't think you can ignore the tracks and cars,not to mention all the penalty changes and tire physics updates.There are not many features outside of Sport Mode but Sport Mode had alot of updates.
This is 100% my guess,if PS5 has backwards compatibility i think PD will keep working on GT Sport just like usual and when GT7 comes players can transfer their GTSport progress.And PS5 Backwards Compatibility is expected so it's very possible that could happen.
Now if that doesn't happen PD could release a GT Sport Remastered.I don't believe they will drop the game and go radio silent till GT7 is revealed,the FIA Live Events will go on(if everything goes to plan),they need a game to support the live events.
Well, that sort of pitching tends to happen before the latest title is even released. Given, like a sports game, GT is an iterative franchise. I doubt they’ve ever let up in the rate of modelling cars & tracks. But as I say, we’ll just be getting a fraction of their output. Given many of those DLC cars have their origins in GT6, much of the newer stuff, is probably being held back.I do believe it's in early pitching stages but full on development?PD isn't big enough to work on a brand new GT and GT Sport at the same time,when the time comes for a new GT all of PD staff will work on that
