D1 Grand Prix Event (Poll)

[Japan Hayai]

What do you guys think of an event for drifting, same like D1 rules
I dont think something like that is hard to implement in Gran Turismo 6

 

[The guy who did]

I think this is a superb idea. I "strongly agree."

 

[Rushton1996]

I think 'strongly agree' because even GT5 has a great drifting system, but sadly there is no way of doing online touge drift battles or A-spec drifting. PD need to utilize and make the most of everything and Drifting is one of the main ones.

 

[Jubby]

No. Sorry drifting folks, a side event is fine, but do not make it a requirement for completion. If it's implemented similar to GT5 but stronger and maybe even dedicated tracks, like touge tracks, then I'd be open to the suggestion.

 

[Japan Hayai]

yes offcorse it can be an event that a player chooses to pick , something like a drifting category, it can be in the mountains original tracks or even track that you create yourself , and the way they decide a winner, would be based on angle ,speed, how close you are to the other player and so on


I think this idea is bullet proof and can be easily implemented

 

[Watt2159]

I just want more D1 tracks/cars.

 

[dr_slump]

If the scoring system just weren't that, at least in my eyes, crappy.

 

[symustafa1996]

Wouldn't this prompt fans of other series for more? Like full WRC stages and calender, F1 calender etc. I mean, D1 as a side event is fine, but it shouldn't be too major, as it's not a major event compared to, say, NASCAR and WRC. Plus, DTM and FIA GT is still missing.

i see what youre saying but if you really look at it there are about 30-40% of servers drift based on gt5, and this event would surely give a boost , and would be competitive , there are servers with nascar GT500 and some others , but majority of people also love drifting, this would be a good transformation for gran turismo not only as a racing simulator but drifting as well,

 

[Japan Hayai]

For people who Some what disagree and strongly disagree, please explain why!

 

[Hyped]

I honestly hate drifting unless its in an arcade game, and would absolutely dread having to do D1 events in order to complete the game. That is my opinion/standpoint on this.

EDIT: Also, I would have to wish PD luck in making an AI that can tandem drift well enough to even have a competition.

 

[avens]

That requires work and having skillful employees, because implementing d1 rules and doing an in-game brackets system isn't as easy as you make it sound, and we know PD doesn't dig that.

I'd prefer PD's efforts going into making a complete version of GT5, using the current licenses and so on, instead of doing difficult stuff that no one will use. For example I think adding real life rally courses is a more substantial addition.

Since other race series are easier to implement, why not do them first? Like you say, a majority also likes NASCAR, Super GT etc. so why should drifting be a higher priority? Also, the only reason not a lot of people enjoys WRC in GT5 is because they were badly implemented in GT5.

 

[TorqueHappenS08]

Oh god your questions remind me of a tedious job application survey. Of course i chose strongly agree.

No you guys don't get, i don't mean implementing drifting into single player vs AI , i mean it would be an online thing , something that can only be done online, and i don't mean single player at all!!

yea but for racing like gt500 dtm and other series, its racing so you dont need anything extra maybe more cars, but drifting doesnt have its competitivness, you just join a server and go on track to drift, unlike racing where there a certain amout of laps to create

 

[Tvensky]

all this I was expecting in GT5, due to the fact that Japan is main drift country! And I was shocked that drift was in such a low level, physics are ok, but all other is just immature and unreal.. (and I cant tell how much I hate those "digital" drift start/end symbols! rubbish, they just had to put orange cones in there and thats it! replays looks like on Sega mega drive because of them!).

 

[spikeyhairdude]

I strongly agree

 

[VBR]

Although I don't (can't) drift, I think it would be great for guys who do. In fact, any kind of realistic motor sport making it's way into GT5 would be a welcome addition (they give us race cars & race tracks, so how about giving us some actual motor racing).

 

[Mr_X]

Should definately be in the next GT, hopefully PD feel the same way

 

[Phoenix]

I have to say neutral because I like drifting, but only for fun, not in competition.

 

[sprags]

I agree but i wouldn't be that bothered if there was no a-spec drift comps and such but i really want more d1 courses 👍

 

[Tvensky]

PD have to make "D-Spec" everything all about drift only, just like B-spec all about 3 buttons and funny AI driving

 

[bigbear]

I don't think drifting should be a part of single player, but online tournaments could be fun. GT6 really should focus on getting GT racing right before throwing other things in the mix. Variety is great, but a game called Gran Turismo should have a proper GT championship before including drifting.

 

[awr117]

Couldn't this be accomplished now online with an organized room host? I'm not against drifting. But i surely hope PD works on improving other racing aspects before they focus on drifting.

 

[avens]

D-spec sounds awesome.

(C for cruising, free roam. There's Bob spec already.)

 

[Aquarelle]

Now before I begin, I want to make it clear that I love drifting. I think it's a wonderful sport that takes serious car control and a lot of delicate tuning to deliver grip on the limit (yes, shock horror, drifting requires grip)
--------------

I don't think there should be a drifting event in the 'campaign'

Now hear me out here.
I'm a completionist through and through, hell I'm not too far off getting my platinum for GT5 to give you an idea of the scale of my compulsion.

Now if I wasn't into drifting, or was absolutely horrible at it and just couldn't manage to get the rhythm of the sport, I would despise the game and all it stands for, because it would be a massively frustrating experience standing between me and 100 percent completion of the game. (Much like the X1 special event and the B spec career trophy are right now).

Now if we want people to get into drifting, rail roading them into it isn't the way to go, it's as simple as that.

So, I think there should be more regular drifting seasonals (and well, more regular seasonals to begin with) instead, maybe make that our version of D1 or whatever, have it give rewards that aren't mandatory to the completion of the game, or depending on how GT6 is designed, maybe even drift specific rewards? I dunno, this isn't a speculation thread.


Anyway, that's my point of view, as if anyone cared or read that entire thing XD

In short - Speaking objectively, I think it would be unfair to punish people who can't/don't want to drift by putting a tournament that is aimed at an audience that is niche compared to the games target audience, into the game.

this event would be based online only, so you dont have to pass it in single player to move on, its like an evnt that can only be done online!

why you guys keep thinking is offline!

 

[Jubby]

For people who Some what disagree and strongly disagree, please explain why!

I think it is nearly impossible to get a point system to match what is truly going on in real drifting. Someone can correct me if I'm mistaken, but I do not know of any game that has done it justice. I don't want to play with the AI to dual drift, and I do not want to deal with lag of any type online while dual drifting because of the precision required.

 

[carfanatic45]

I think it is a good idea, but it shouldn't be required to complete it as part of the campaign. I'm not good at drifting at all, so I couldn't manage getting past it. The only game I can drift in is Burnout Paradise and a couple other NFS freeroam-type game styles. We ALL KNOW NFS is far from GT5!!
