Do you want cruise control in GT5

[crazy206]

While it would be a good idea for people who like to cruise around in GT5. But until that time comes, i've managed to find another way to gain what i and many others seek...


I've built a cruise control mechanism out of legos.....

It's still a prototype and i'm constantly refining it. When I finish it, I might post building instructions for it.

This is where it usually is and should reside.

Let me know what you think of it!


Gran Turismo colors FTW

Cruise control?

In a racing game?

 

[THEPUNISHER]

Yes like racing in ssc X and hit it while in top speed.

Cruise control?

In a racing game?

It would be quite fun in Route X.

I would love it as an addition to the game!

After that, can we finally get cup holders!? Maybe parking assist?

 

[ZohsixGT5]

Great idea! Also, we need heated seats and power folding mirrors!

Radar detector,tire pressure sensor,speed alarm ( after 120 kph ),massage seats,heated seats .

my bobs going to get comfy in endurance race.

 

[crazy206]

I'm gonna get working on those cup holders

It's pretty far down the list.

But dude... why are you using a computer monitor with a console? Y U NO USE TV?

 

[jedisteampunk]

I'm disappointed they didn't include an auto-dimming rear-view mirror.

I just gotta say... the thing in the OP is a really cute way of doing this.

i would if i could but i don't have an extra tv lying around right now.
since the monitor is small i can mainly focus on the road

There are a couple of different ways of doing this if all you want is full throttle, and you use a wheel. Simply use a DS3 as a second controller, when you want full throttle Wrap a rubber band around the right analog stick.

Or find a spot where you can stand up / lean the 2nd controller so that the right analog stick is pushed forward (a remote contoll or 3/4" block works).

God bless Lego!

No wonder new GT games continue to disappoint.

With fans asking for stuff like this, I'd ignore them too. I'm very serious about that, I would.

Neat contraption though, ridiculous and a colossal waste of time imo, but at least you're enjoying it. 👍 for creativity on that end.

 

[II-zOoLoGy-II]

You have got to be kidding me.

I have lost all faith in GT fans.

ALL faith.

What? I certainly see how this could be useful. Wether you just like to cruise or if you're doing a race on Daytona for example. As long as you can quickly take over control if something goes wrong. This pretty trick.

Why you have such a problem with cruisers? Guys? You are not forced to do so aswell. You think its only purpose was Racing? Well go ahead, its ok.

lol @ "it´s a Racing Game" whoever said that. If it was PD would´ve done each car in Race Spec´s and livery.

Yes, I would enjoy cruise control as I enjoy cruising, mainly because Muscle V8 sound better at low rev´s. and its fun to cruise around City Tracks

Great job that custom cruise control!

 

[CSLACR]

The point is direction of focus.

I don't personally care what anyone else does/doesn't do. I do care (and certainly would if a developer of GT games) what the direction of the focus was, if I really wanted to partake in dumbing the GT series down to a daily driving simulator or not.
It just begs the question: Are we making a serious game, or is it a joke?

 

[CJSpencer77]

im sure its in B-Spec, no matter how many times you hit 'GO FASTER DAMN YOU' it always seems like cruise control on

Are you one of those people who take "The Real Driving Simulator" slogan literally?

As for a cruise controller, I would be quite afraid of the direction GT is going if it were implemented.

I'm sure this confuses a lot of people.

"Cruize" and police/road law" rooms are pretty common, thats where this gets used I imagine, not racing.

 

[Mr_X]

Only if they add free roam

Well I don´t want the fans to see themselves having to split into different groups like, Racers, Drifters, Draggers, Cruisers, Rallye-Drivers or whatever it is.

But all these things are possible, and some like doing this, some like doing that and some like to do all of it.

What I don´t understand is why must some try to force others to see things their way, only! Just respect another man´s oppinion!

And why should GT go any bad direction with it? How should this do any harm to racers, drifters and so on?

 

[NjLowrider]

The direction of the game as we know it hangs in the balance ::::

 

[THEPUNISHER]

Listen guys, i know that is quite rubbish idea for a racing game but continuing with ideas and accept them AND respect them, that will develop more ideas.

he just want to show you an idea he had, maybe later he will figure out something good, keep it up man.

 

[Swara]

Yes, oh yes I would LOVE a cruise control...seeing how the amount of cruising rooms have opened up till today...

 

[Flaco13]

Has the implementation of Rally/Dirt Tracks turned GT into a Rally Game?

Has the implementation of NASCAR/ Ovals turned it into a NASCAR based game?

Has the implementation of B-Spec turned it into a Race Manager?

The main focus has always been and is and will be closed Circuit Car racing! This is what the majority wants. This is what most players do most of the time.

So there is no need to worry about a change of direction the Game could go, imho.

 

[MOTORTRENDmitch]

Now that, that is hilarious.. Great job on the lego rig.

As for the questions though? No.
