Gran Turismo Sport Game Update Arrives February 24

How amazing would a cheeky little VR update be with full grids. Take No Mans Sky, it now looks amazing on PS5 VR via PS4 backwards play.

Surely it's simple enough for a team like PD to 'flick the switch' and allow something they actually wanted for the PS4 at launch, but was held back by technical restrictions of hardware.

Here's me hoping, but very much doubting

I don't need personally any more content for GTS as GT7 is coming this year, but please, fix the goddam servers, its unplayable in lobbies at this point. I love GT League and Custom Races but its a big slap to ppl like me who likes to play with friends too!

 

[Famine]

There are no servers in lobbies. It's peer-to-peer.

 

[Auditore]

I think polyphony is way too busy with gt7 so i don't expect content updates for gt sport but we did get a Yaris out of nowhere months ago.

 

[alex511]

When you write, there might be a combination with the fia start, it’s for me now clearly, we get only fixes in this updates

 

[IXON009]

Even better then, fix whatever it takes. I dont think the problem is my wifi as the signal is 1000 mbit, its even better than my old cable net.

 

[Lazybike]

Surely some kind of penalty system update at least, as always I'll be hoping for a track, don't care which one, anything new will do!

With peer-to-peer it doesn't matter how good your connection is (also your bandwidth - which I'm assuming is 1000Mbps, not 1000mbps, because 1 bit per second sucks and 1 gigabit per second doesn't - is almost irrelevant, though the fact it's wireless isn't), it's how good everyone's connection it.

If you're racing in a lobby with someone on the other side of the planet or someone with a home network made of potatoes - or both - you're going to have a bad time of it.

Hope to see some new cars and/or track, always good to refresh GTS, before a late GT7 launch. But, as said in the article, maybe a preparation to FIA events.

There are no servers in lobbies. It's peer-to-peer.

I was always thinking each lobbies created their "own" server (between lobby players). I'm learning everydays 👍

 

[Giygas]

Can't imagine it will bring any content, but nice nonetheless.

 

[Silver_Wolf]

Well hopefully there is some VGT content or any other content PD have decided to release for GT Sport.

Look forward to further news in due course!

Like hopefully the Jaguar and Lamborghini VGT's (the SV for the Jag) and the Porsche 917 Living Legend.

 

[alex511]

When the update is short before the saison-start, it’s for me obviously, that’s together with that. Otherwise, I can’t explain me this.

In essence, each console acts as a server, but also as a client. There's no single machine to which all the others send data and which then serves data out to all the others. They all do it.

I would love for a PS5 Patch that would include a
60FPS Gameplay @ 2160p
60FPS Replays @ 1800p or 2160p
120fps Gameplay @ 1080p or 1800p

As for content it would be cool to get at least 1 New Track or at most add some Rain Conditions at existing Tracks like
Blue Moon, Suzuka, Nürburgring 24 hour, Kyoto Driving Park. This can make some fun race in 2021 Nations Cup.

and on one last note it would be fun to get some upgrade cars (GR.4 & GR.3) EVO packages, this can spice up the
2021 Manufacturer Series

 

[Granadier]

This will just include a refresh for the BRZ

 

[barak181]

Dear sweet baby jesus, please do something about the wreck of a penalty system....

I rewatched the original Vr teaser trailer this week, the one Sony eventually pulled because the game wasn’t going to get the vr features advertised. I was so hopeful it was coming eventually.
Here’s a link if anyone wants a refresher:

 

[Bloodytears]

...Rain Conditions at ...Nürburgring 24 hour,

Dunno about ps5, 4 will definitely burn out.

Ummm, I don't know if you have a PS5 or not, but I do and it can do that already...

 

[Ryan81]

I think we'll get the Aston Martin Valkyrie and the new Porsche 911 GT3 992.

 

[alex511]

That’s a thing for Forza, the newest hyper and sportcars as update.
In Gran Turismo, you get the RUF ;-)

 

[anthonyfa18]

I don't think it will burn out a ps4 they pull it off at spa its works good

Ummm, I don't know if you have a PS5 or not, but I do and it can do that already...

I don't have a ps5 yet but it run at 4k at 1800p not 2160p, just like on ps4 pro

I was always thinking each lobbies created their "own" server (between lobby players). I'm learning everydays 👍

It is called peer-to-peer, or P2P. This is common in 360/PS3 era especially Call of Duty games pre-Advanced Warfare, but right now most online games are now using dedicated servers.

In race time, all clients (or consoles) are sending data to all other connected consoles. But they still need a host to let everyone know which console is which. In a lobby if you setup a room, you will become a host. You can also switch hosts.

If you want a perfectly playable and working lobby race environment, everyone should be in NAT 2 (outbound and inbound game connection is not blocked by a firewall or the ISP) or NAT OPEN in Call of Duty games. This can be done by each person's router. I usually put my console in DMZ (demilitarized zone) so all packets from public internet can reach my console without problem.

Or the easiest, just bring everyone to a LAN party. Connect every console to one single LAN device and voila. (But not possible due to some virus eh)

I would love for a PS5 Patch that would include a
60FPS Gameplay @ 2160p
60FPS Replays @ 1800p or 2160p
120fps Gameplay @ 1080p or 1800p

You can do 60fps replays already. If you have PS4 Pro/PS5, go to Video Settings, set graphics options to "Prioritize Frame Rate". 60fps replays are amazing...like you are watching real races

 

[Franske]

They add ray tracing and all ready some tracks from GT7 (I hope).

 

[alex511]

The best update certainly would be, a release date for GT7 D

 

[snc]

I would love for a PS5 Patch that would include a
60FPS Gameplay @ 2160p
60FPS Replays @ 1800p or 2160p
120fps Gameplay @ 1080p or 1800p

this patch is called gt7 ;d

 

[The359]

It will be a small patch, BOP tweaks, and penalty system overhaul.

 

[Lux Klonoa]

You can do 60fps replays already. If you have PS4 Pro/PS5, go to Video Settings, set graphics options to "Prioritize Frame Rate".

That's at the cost of resolution, though. It drops down to 1080p when you select it. So what he wants is both 4K and 60fps in the replays.

And seeing how Ghost of Tsushima and God of War pulled it off nicely, it should be doable for PD. Especially if GT7 isn't releasing anytime soon.
