Few gt question from a forza player

[kTR BOOM]

Think I'm going to get the ps4 over the Xbox one I only play cod and forza and love forza and I'm very good at it.
So gran turismo will be my alternate

How do you accelerate and brake on gt also can you do manual with clutch on a pad.

Will gt 6 be released on the ps4

Does it have a store front or player shop area where people can sell tunes and paints.
I'm a awesome tuner and made many rank 1 cars in the world and like to sell them.

What's the tuning like is in indeph like say you can do spring rates anywhere from 20lbs to 100's or is it sof medium hard type settings.

Also what's the lobbies like can you create your own lobbies and how many cars on track.

What real life tracks have they got maybe even for gt5 will do

Cheers if you can answer anything

 

[Tornado]

No one really knows the definite answer to... any of those questions, really.

 

[kTR BOOM]

Ok how does gt 5 stack up then to the question
Cheers. Obviously if it's on ps4 doesn't matter

 

[LeadFootLiam]

Well GT5 had the ability to go in depth with tuning. Spring rates etc, so no doubt GT6 will have a better tuning system.

GT6 will be released on the PS3.

That is all I can answer at the moment.

 

[CodeRedR51]

Not on PS4 at the moment.

 

[MOPARbarrett5]

GT6 will be released on ps3 and you can trade/get/give tunes at the marketplace section. There isn't 1 for GT6 yes as for suspension settings they are in depth but that depends on the player.

 

[kTR BOOM]

How do you accelerate and brake. Is there an option to change gear with a clutch on a pad likd in forza. Not sure if any of you have played it but as you change gear you press the clutch button too and it works out a few seconds faster per lap ect over just manual

You would use the trigger buttons just like with Forza or you could use the right analog stick if you want but ideally you should use a wheel and pedals.

Will gt 6 be released on the ps4

GT6 is releasing on the PS3, no mention of it releasing on the PS4 though it may at some future date or it may become available as streaming content via cloud services on the PS4

Does it have a store front or player shop area where people can sell tunes and paints.
I'm a awesome tuner and made many rank 1 cars in the world and like to sell them.

No mention of this as of yet, I do not really expect it to be there

What's the tuning like is in indeph like say you can do spring rates anywhere from 20lbs to 100's or is it sof medium hard type settings.

They will seem alien compared to Forza but you can set springs, dampers downforce and such, not sure what changes will be made to GT6 I am hoping for more options but will have to wait and see. The one big thing in GT that is not in Forza is the option to add and position ballast weight up to 200kg

Also what's the lobbies like can you create your own lobbies and how many cars on track.

GT5 allows open and private user created lobbies max 16 cars on track. Not much info on GT6 yet but I would expect the same but with more features than GT5. GT also allows tuning in the lobby as well as practice on the track while waiting on the host to start the race.

What real life tracks have they got maybe even for gt5 will do

A few off the top of my head
Nurburgring
Suzuka
Motegi
Lemans
Monza
Spa
Tusukuba
Fuji
Indy
Daytona

 

[kTR BOOM]

Monza and spa. Lovely
Not held a ps controller for a long time is r2 and l2 like the Xbox triggers now or is it just an on off type button so can you control wheelspin with them.

 

[MisterWhiskers]

You accelerate with X AKA A, and I changed a setting to braking and put E-Brake for O AKA X.

No, it is selling on PS3, BUT it can sell on PS4. We have to wait, unfortunately.

We do not have a store front, but there are cars in the used car dealership where cars from older GTs are sold, but worse graphics. There is also and online car dealership where cars that cycle every 2 weeks.

There is a changeable transmission that includes all the gears and MPH/KMH in which you can change as desired. The suspension includes anti-roll bars, spring rate, ride height, dampers, camber, and toe angle.

Yes, you an create you own lobbies in GT5. The maximum amount of players allowed are 16, and 3 minimum. You can label them as race for fun, race for real, shuffle race (when a random car is chosen to race), and drift.

Wow I forgot about dirt tracks lol and now it's got night racing too. Do you race with lights on and very dark or is it like dusk. Also can you use weather on any track.

It's sounds awesome lol only issue now is I need it onps4. Suppose ps3 will be about £20 soon tho lol

It depends on what time you set it on.

 

[kTR BOOM]

What do you mean? On forza for example everyone goes on the leaderboard but only the top 100 have a replay stored with there time on the lb. and dirty laps don't count

 

[HBR-Roadhog]

Yes you can use the r2 and l2 and they are variable input though not quite as much range as the xbox controller and not as comfortable if you have large hands.

It can be very dark, just depends on where you are racing and what time it is. We used to go out on Nurburgring and set the time to a 10x scale then start the race at like 4:30AM so it would be pitch black when you come out of the pits then the sun would be coming up as you near the end of the first lap. Very cool

No leaderboards on GT5 other than the weekly time trials and the local leaderboard for your own times in practice.

Hopefully GT6 will have a proper leaderboard included :crossing fingers:

 

[J-KiLLA24]

Not all tracks have day/night transition either.

Welcome to the GT family my friend. I too use to play Forza and love both games. I have a higher preference for GT though I'll try to answer some of your questions, but they'll be based off GT5 as not too many GT6 details have been announced.

How do you accelerate and brake on gt also can you do manual with clutch on a pad.

Accelerate and Brake are done with R2/L2 respectively or X and Square. Or I'm pretty sure you can set up a custom layout. As for the clutch, I don't believe this was a possibility in GT5. During manual transmission, you simply flick the Right Toggle (R3) up and down.

Will gt 6 be released on the ps4?

No one knows yet. There is speculation, but no confirmation of the possibility of this occurring. Personally, I don't think it will be.

Does it have a store front or player shop area where people can sell tunes and paints. I'm a awesome tuner and made many rank 1 cars in the world and like to sell them.

GT5 does not to my knowledge.

What's the tuning like is in indeph like say you can do spring rates anywhere from 20lbs to 100's or is it sof medium hard type settings.

I'm not a huge tuner, but GT5 seems to have great depth to it. I can definitely tell you it is more than Forza has to offer.

Also what's the lobbies like can you create your own lobbies and how many cars on track.

In GT5, you can create your own lobby with up to 16 players. You can also set the track, set the PP (similar to Forza's system of classes) and control the flow of races.

What real life tracks have they got maybe even for gt5 will do

This is the official GT5 Track List:https://www.gtplanet.net/gran-turismo-5-official-track-list/

Announcements of new tracks to be included in GT6 are still being made.

 

[HBR-Roadhog]

I'm not a huge tuner, but GT5 seems to have great depth to it. I can definitely tell you it is more than Forza has to offer.

In terms of tuning not really. Forza has more options in terms of upgrade parts than any GT that I have played so far.

The numbers on Forza for springs make a bit more sense

Both games have mostly the same general tuning options the difference being that Forza has Tire Pressure and GT has ballast weight and a HP limiter.

Another + for GT is that the adjustable trans does not make much if any difference in the performance rating of the car where on Forza it is all over the place and makes it hard to tune many cars to a competitive point in a given class. The GT ability to get adjustable gears without throwing the car out of class combined with the ability to add weight and limit HP allows a much wider range of cars that can be competitive at a given performance level. In this way GT has a pretty large advantage.

GT also has an edge in TC and ABS with each being adjustable on a scale of 0-10 though this is a global option. TC can be adjusted while driving as can brake bias

I agree with you that Forza offers more upgrades. I guess that GT5's level of tuning is just a little more realistic in terms of the way the car reacts in accordance to the tuning done.

 

[Streeto]

Not to mention the physics in the GT6 trailer look very close if not in par with popular PC racing sims.

KW Suspension & Yokohama tires must of helped a great deal when they worked with PD.

Only thing that hurt GT5 is the visual customization of your car, but GT6 is promised to bring more in that area on top of what we've seen already. Also I can't wait for the new track modeller where you can make tracks 40+ miles long haha.

Whether it's out on PS4 or not is unsure, but in an interview Kaz said it's definitely a possibility. It might not be on launch though.

 

[Tenacious D]

I'm letting my bot race for me in Forza 4 while I surf and cool down for bed. One other advantage it has over GT5.

A few other points I would add to the list here is that transmission tuning is a little more sensible in GT5, in which you can tune each gear within a limited range, though the "final gear" is wide open, letting you tune the entire tranny up and down in a very wide range. In Forza, you can tune each gear to almost anything.

Sound is roaring in Forza 4 no matter what muffler you use, while it runs a gamut in GT5, though I think all the sounds are fine. Strangely, the sound in Forza is the same no matter what driver view you use.

The Forza Livery Editor is fantastic, and you can have any livery within a certain fee range from the Auction House or users Storefront. No liveries in GT5, save for a few mundane preset things you get on 17 Race Mod cars, and you can only paint one area.

Painting is weird in GT5, in that you need a paint chip from a car. Which means you have to buy or win a car with a certain color if you want that color. Forza has a paint shop with actual paint.

My experience is with a wheel, and with it, cars in Forza have a delightful dangerous feel to them that GT5 lacks, and GT cars feel more stable, secure and safe. But racing for me in F4 is unnecessarily difficult, while in GT5 I can take turns with authority and assurance, like the PC sims I own. The bots are very rowdy in Forza, and while they don't like being passed in GT5, they're much more polite and tend to give up if you get a substantial lead on them. Tires across the board feel (to me) like racing compounds in Forza, while in GT they feel like ever grippier street tires as you go up the scale. I like aspects of both games, but I much prefer the competent feeling I have in GT5. Damage in Forza is incredible, while it's barely there in GT5.

It's much easier to get credits in GT5, and while online racing is much less feature rich than in Forza, it's free. For now.

 

[SlipZtrEm]

I'll give some answers, though as others, this is based off GT5, as we know very little about the inner workings of GT6 yet.

How do you accelerate and brake on gt also can you do manual with clutch on a pad.

The clutch you're used to in FM4 isn't an option for pad players with GT5. You'll need a wheel.

Will gt 6 be released on the ps4

So far, no, though Kaz has unsurprisingly hinted at it. Don't put too much stock in that; there have been a lot of hints and "maybe"s over the years. It's pretty much a sure thing there will be a PS4 GT... we're just unsure if it'll be 6 or 7

Does it have a store front or player shop area where people can sell tunes and paints.

GT would need a livery editor for the latter to work. You can gift folks "paint chips" (which you receive through various different events in the game - typically, buying a new car), but there is no selling for them, or tunes.

I'm a awesome tuner and made many rank 1 cars in the world and like to sell them.

There is no in-game community economy. We have a "Marketplace" here at GTPlanet where a lot of people "trade" cars... but that's just using the game's "gift" function (which has some pretty strict restrictions).

This may or may not change for GT6.

What's the tuning like is in indeph like say you can do spring rates anywhere from 20lbs to 100's or is it sof medium hard type settings.

For a vast number of GT's settings, it doesn't deal with absolute numbers (say, ride height in millimeters). It instead deals with +/- values. So you could lower your car's front suspension by 20mm, but the menu would just say -20mm... it won't tell you what "0" equates to.

Also what's the lobbies like can you create your own lobbies and how many cars on track.

You can create your own, and there's a fair amount of options available (though not as many as you'll be used to from FM4 experience). That said, one of the handy things in GT5's online mode is what's essentially a track day option. A race doesn't have to start immediately online in GT5; you can have a Free Run mode for as long as you like, and let people lap at their own pace, in their own preferred cars. I ran open track days at the 'Ring (which, by the way, is an accurate version you also won't be familiar with ) a great many times back when GT5 was first released.

 

[Quakebass]

If by "how do you accelerate and brake in GT" you mean button layout, well, then... You can decide for yourself. You can set custom controls. I don't remember the default, but I believe it's X (A), or an option to use the right thumbstick. I can't recall what the default brake was. I changed Accelerate to R2 (RT) and Reverse to L2 (LT), brake to Square (X), and E/Hand Brake to O (B). I set manual shifting to the right stick up and down, though I usually run in Auto. I set camera controls to the D-pad, and the rest (windshield wipers, headlight function, horn, etc.) is really up to you.

Another thing - In Forza reverse and brake are the same button, GT5 needs separate buttons for brake and reverse. Hitting reverse while moving forwards (more than 10-15 MPH, anyways) will do nothing.

Thanks for the info guys, makes me really want gt now

Cheers if you can answer anything

really admins i don't want to start a flame

sorry mate
but i thing you know the answers from your questions before you post here in gtplanet...

gt5 have nothing of those..

but have more other features.

the only thing i know like a hardcore sim gamer is that the
GT focus more at the simulate driving than forza..

for a forza gamer gt feels boring...
for a hardcore sim driving racer gt feels better than forza..
catch it??

and i have many real life race drivers friends to confirm this...

i'm not good in English
i hope you understand me...

 

[kTR BOOM]

If I knew I wouldn't ask I'm not 10 years old or the kind of nerd to cry aboutwhats better or start bs.
I'm just tryna find out a few important things before I buy a new console pretty much for one game.

So far I'm sold

That's great to hear that you're leaning towards GT6 And based on what I've seen of the XONE and PS4, the PS4 is definitely the winner. I look forward to seeing you on the track in GT6 whether it be on the PS3 or (possibly) PS4.

 

[PepeMickey]

Thanks for the info guys, makes me really want gt now

Honestly, don't come this way, you will be extremely dissapointed. There's a reason why more GT players are going to Forza than Forza players come to GT. What you've experienced with FM4, you won't find it with SONY, GT is an inferior product in every single way. With that said, I know the Xbone is looking bad as a console so I understand your desire for a Sony product but nobody really knows a thing about the whole GT in PS4 situation. I suggest that you wait until more info gets released but for the love of god don't get a PS3 just for GT5/6. Spend that money elsewhere.

I kind of second that amigo. I own PS3 and Xbox 360, also I do own GT5 and FM4. And Forza is definitely the better game and GT5 the better Sim. And if you are used to Forza and all it's features you gonna be shocked how Gran Turismo lacks in this area. You will ask yourself why in the world you have to use a paintchip to paint your car etc why only a few wheels and not even the size is adjustable.There are no engine swaps or different Turbo kits for the tuning etc.
On the other hand you have some nice features such as Nascar, some dirt tracks and Kartin, which arent really advanced though.

In the end you decide

Fascinating that you can determine that for a game that is months away from release.

 

[HBR-Roadhog]

I've played both games quite a lot and I can say that both games have features the other is missing, some more important than others. If you could take the best features from both games and build a new one it would be truly awesome.

Forza has the leaderboard system which GT desperately needs and is a big disappointment to Forza fans when they see it is not there. Livery editor is another biggie that is missing from GT. If just these 2 features were in GT then it would be hard to say Forza has an upper hand and keep a straight face while doing so.

I am disappointed that I will not be playing FM5 but due to the news on the new xbox that is just not going to happen. I am excited to get GT6 though and if they add a good leaderboard system I will not miss Forza at all.

Forza is a good game and so is GT, There are a few things I like better about Forza and several things I like better about GT. IMO GT is moving forward but Forza has moved backward in a few very important areas. The new console not supporting the wheels that many of us paid out serious $ for does not help either.
