I don't understand the big deal about an offline event creator, isn't that what online racing if for?
I prefer offline. it would be nice to be able to get creative and customize the game to your own tastes. Online requires a huge time commitment and I hardly ever win online and it doesn't make you much money even if you do win.

Well i'm definitely not capable of answering HOW they will code better sounds. Do you expect me to answer to this question?

And it takes SOME time to build 1200 cars , ~40 tracks, game modes etc. Yes, it does. And until this day, no one did better.

These are questions to Taku Imasaki are they not? I don't want your answer, I want PD's. I'm interested to know how they are going about this sound upgrade KY has referred to
 
And that is totally awesome but I'm into a lot of niche racing that most online people aren't. Offline is the only way to live out these dreams.
What type of racing series are you into I'm sure if you checked the online racing forum you could find some people that like the same racing.

I really doubt it. Like I would love to make a custom race series with the event/series creator that is based around entry level rally cars that would take place on a series of 12 or so randomly generated rally stages. but my ideas for race series are pretty much infinite. and i just don't have the time or bother to deal with real people on this.
My favorite kind of racing to do online is 450-500pp races. but its annoying cause it takes awhile to fill the room and half the people quit after the second lap.

side question. does anyone know if prize money online is based on the number of entrants or the number of people who finish?

You could get into a league or race series for that type of car.
 
I agree the framing is crucial but using one of your three Q's is ludicrous. How does this look:

An intro of 2-3 Sentences describing how we appreciate this opportunity; then the three Q's; then in closing ron says something like this:
If ever you are free and willing to do so, we would love the chance to have a liaison between you and the GTPlanet community again. We, your loyal customers, greatly appreciate that our feedback is taken seriously and are always here to offer more ways to make the game the best racer for all skill levels. Thank you.

That would be a better way to address the issue, instead of asking for more feedback when he that is what he is offering in the first place. I get your frustration and am in the same boat, but let's not burn this bridge before we even get a chance to cross it.

Only thing is, I'm not asking to have a chance to rub the lamp at a later stage, and have another 3 wishes from the genie if we are lucky. In fact I think this scenario is ludicrous.

I'm asking if PD are interested in having a proper social media presence to communicate with their customers and prospects. Nearly every business is doing this these days, so why do PD want to stay in the 90s? Funny really because some accuse them of doing that with the game too!
 
ask questions and if the answer is for GT6,
if you ask him are better sounds on the way he will answer yes!
But is that for gt6 or gt7?
 
First of all, Taku Imasaki said himself (@willow event) that the triple screen was included in GT6 (and unfortunately it's not). Not a lot of people have a triple screen, that is true... but the one that have it are ready to buy the game 3 times ! And finally, a triple screen is a technology showcase.

I don't see how an image stretched out over 3 screens is worth 3x the money.

I can understand dual screens on a PC for multi-tasking, but for gaming, console or PC, there's little to no point.

But, whatever, it's your cash at the end of it all.
 
2 times, 1 digital copy can go to 2 ps3's(wich is negligible cost in a 3 screen- 3 ps3 rig) also dont get 3, if you had 4, 2 front and each side, would represent better the actual size of things.
 
@ron86 please forward this to him and make some adjustments first.

Can you ask kaz to give a valid excuse for the state of the AI, lack of mechanic damage, rolling starts on almost everyrace and poor quality of engine sounds at release. You have had 3 years to get these right, i know you had to update gt5 in the meantime but these should have been improved at gt6 release. And ask him to play Assetto Corsa, forza 5 (play gt and forza fully including side content) and log a minimum of 24 hours on each game so you can better understand your competition and how they compare to your game.

Hes gonna say ai is good, sounds perfect , he personally doesnt want/like damages and because-usa-racecar.... :banghead:
And its more like 5-7years.... 👎
Your probably right, my post was pointless.
Kaz seems to be developing a game for himself which would mean it won't fit the desires of the majority customer base. That = bad.
