Anyone here thought GT5 could be more like a flight sim?

Meaning thousands of buttons & toggle switches to toggle & press ?.So could operate the heated windows for condensation & other heater fuctions, air conditioning for red hot weather.Opening windows ( electric or manually ).As mentioned adjustable seats ( manufactures spec of course ) like big limo type sofas or non adjustable recaro racing seats.What about adjustable steering wheel postions.So everything that can be opened ( fuel flap for pit stop ), switched on/off & adjustable can be done probably with a keyboard & mouse.Or would it be more pick up & play ?.:).
 
in rfactor you can adjust the seat, in TDU you can open and close the doors windows, in LFS you can put the signal/turning lights
 
Careful you may trigger a whole new load of threads if this were to be confirmed!!!

When racing on suzuka what temperature would you put your air conditioning at!!
 
I would switch it on for the Stelvio Pass road Finnracer.THIS IS NOT CONFIRMED that better ?.I'd love it to be confirmed by PD, that would be cool.

Those should be in the game. Everyone has a few buttons left on their controller or wheel for those and the game could even allow input from a second controller. Or even a keyboard. PS3 supports mouse & keyboard out of the box, it's up to developers to use them in game.
 
I wouldn't mind if they included an interface for hydrolic actuators to hook up a motion cockpit and external gauges. That's for people who want to go to the extreme and build a full blown racing sim.
 
Hey we could listen to the local radio station in Helsinki or watch OZ tv.So Crocodile Dundee & Fosters adverts for us then.
 
Ahahahah maybe not all that Flight Sim accuracy, but a Kill Engine\Starter\Ignition function would be nice(you cant pit in without shutting down the car), sometimes i just like to hear a car boot up, that savage first rev.

Also wiper function if there is weather, and of course headlight control.
 
^^^ Everything that makes driving legal & also abides by the racing rules, regulations + terms & conditions really.Imagine that a racing game coming out every year, with different complied regulations.
 
I take a peek into the GT5 forums for the first time in a while and find this? This isn't real life, so why would heated seats and AC matter to us. It's not like we can actually feel that through the TV screen. And seat positions? I'm sorry but this is not a very smart and useful idea.
 
These things could be in there, just operated like they simulated auto gearboxes ( by computer a.i. ).If real time weather is in then it's a possiblity.Tourist Trophy had the riding position adjustments ( rider only ), so this can't do that much detriment to the release date schedule.
 
YEAH PD!!!!! How come you havent implemented this in the 5 years you have been making the game!!! if Kaz or PD doesnt Confirms heated seats, cigarette lighter, air conditioning, working windows, dashboard features like MPG, Trip and total mileage; I wont be buying the game :@.

/Joke Mode Off :lol:

We are just having fun. Please don't get all bent out of shape over it. The thread title should have given it away that it was all just sarcasm, it did to me.
 
I was serious for making it more sim like ( it's a simulator ).I'm just trying to create some laughs.

It is apreciated, at least by me. Obviously the mods don't have a problem with it either or this thread would have been closed by now. Don't let one bad apple spoil the whole crop.:cheers:
