I'm really happy to read about free updates and the future of GT Sport, but I'd like to know about rain and classic tracks if they are in development
Yes, i read 👍It was mentioned in the article there is one more part to the interview, so they may or may not discuss it then
I believe Kazunori confirmed at a live event or interview a while ago that rain is in development, but won't be the dynamic rain of GT6. I might be wrong, but that's just what I think I remember hearing. The rain and snow tyres being in the game could also be considered as a sign that they plan to add those conditions too, but like everything, we can't say for certainI'm really happy to read about free updates and the future of GT Sport, but I'd like to know about rain and classic tracks if they are in development
As said somewhzrz else GTSport is completely GAAS. This game will be build upon and build upon. PS5 launch/upgrade title, free upgradable (or cheap) for current GTS holders and further evolving over time. GT Sport is there to stay and we won't see GT7 or Sport 2. That's what I think after reading the interview .

I'm paying the recurring fee of PS Plus, and GT Sport is the only game I play. But you're right. I can see it becoming a service with its own recurring fee, or maybe more aggressive micro-transactions. They need to be careful about how to implement it though because I, for one, wouldn't like to pay two monthly fees for GTS.That's only possible with an ongoing or recurring fee. Something has to pay for it.
I noticed something the other day that might shed light on this. If you set the output to 1080p and then set the 2K mode to optimize for frame rate, you get some nice screen effects that are not present in 4k. For instance, there is speed blur on the edges of the screen.
I may be that the rain effects work fine in 1080p when adjusted for best frame rate, but there's something that messes it up when you adjust for quality.
To be fair, the quality didn't seem to be much worse aside from some obvious aliasing on the pixels.

A proper GT as a launch PS5 game with lots of cars, tunning and career mode would be a huge success for sure.As said somewhzrz else GTSport is completely GAAS.

PS Plus is the fee I pay for maintaining GTS online services. And in this case, the game is owned by Sony, so it's all connected. I don't know if there're games with their own recurring fees that also require PS Plus, but it doesn't seem like a good business model for me. If they want to create a game as service, it should be offered out of the PS Plus scope.That recurring fee you pay for PS Plus supports PS Plus, not GTS. It doesn't matter what game you prefer to play. PS Plus doesn't fund any of them.
It would be the same for playing any of the FPS games.
Although I wonder if GTS will quickly become obsolete since other next-gen racing games will be released starting next year, and I don't think we'll get to play GT7 anytime soon.

GTSport is the perfect opportunity for Poly to gain time and build a great car/track list.
Yep. This time, I think the cars look ready for next gen.Are you suggesting they could upgrade GTS and call it a PS5 launch title?
PlayStation Plus is a subscription service for the PlayStation Network, and it's required if you want to play PS4 games online, regardless of the game (except in the case of some F2P games, like Fortnight).PS Plus is the fee I pay for maintaining GTS online services.

I'd gladly pay an annual fee for GTS only and I like the idea of infinite monthly updates.
