Future Updates and DLC | Making Great Progress!!!

this sounds good but add cars like the Austin Martin One-77, Gumpert Apollo S, Bugatti Veryon 16.4 Super Sport, dodge cornet, Chevy Caprice, More Muscle Cars!!! some more vans would be great too PSN xMercury-Cougarx and the 2012 Dodge Charger with a blower on it and flame paint :drool:
 
some things I would like:
1) ability to choose the stock color of your DLC cars, just like when buying cars from the Premium dealership.
2) ability to delete DLC cars... or to sell, but delete at least.
3) I would like simple graphic options to add to all of your cars... premium cars at least. (numbers, personal logo, pin stripes, racing stripes, text, etc)
4) it would be nice to increase/decrease the tire size of some cars. this could easily be added to the wheel section of GT Auto. Up/down could be used, while left/right is used to select your rims.

I REALLY want 1 and 2 since I think they are badly needed...
3 and 4 are more like the cherry on my ice cream sundae... not important, but would be nice.

Some features I'd like to see!

-Obviously a livery editor (probably the most requested feature and yet, Polyphony refuses to put it in). I can understand why not for the standard models, but there really is no excuse for the premium models.

-Upgrade standard race models to premium. DTM, LMP, GT, FIA, whatever!

-We need Porsche in Gran Turismo. Kaz wants them in, and even Porsche stated somewhere (I don't remember where) that they cannot afford to be out of Gran Turismo any longer. It's EA that's the problem. At least make the RUFs premium or update their roster! Or even RM them as well. Who cares, fantasy them if you have to! You've done it plenty of vehicles in the past, mostly Japanese cars.

-An updated ALMS roster! The ALMS series is one of my all time favorite series. I can understand why Porsche won't be in it. :( Stupid EA being absolute jerks about it.

-STOP MODELLING HYBRIDS AS PREMIUM MODELS! We get why hybrids are a big thing in Japan, but seriously, who is going to race them in GT5? They're economic cars, not high performance vehicles! The CR-Z Touring Car is nice though...

-Stop focusing on Japanese makes. We realize this game is made in Japan and we love the cars that come out of there. However, there are just way too many Japanese cars in this game (over half of the total cars in game I believe), which is the only reason why there are over 1000 cars in the game (basically many different versions of the same model). Not needed. As stated before, this game is indeed a global phenomenon and needs to accommodate various regions around the world!

-Timed races in online races, just like the endurance races such as the 4 Hours of Tsukuba.

-Unlimited time to complete the races online after the leader crosses the finish line on his/her final lap. And also pace laps before the start of the race offline and online.

-Complete control of the car at all times, including before and after a race (online at least), and while in the pits.

-Full race flag usage and rules instead of the power limiter for a short time. GT5 seriously needs the drive through, stop-and-go, amongst other penalties.

-More RM options. After a full year, the RM list has not expanded, or even changed one bit for that matter, at all. I was extremely excited see this feature return since it was dropped after GT2, and only to find that only 15 cars (out of 278 Premium cars and 811 standard, making over 1089 cars in total, including any special models and DLC) had this feature! Big disappointment there. And even after the RM, the livery designs are too generic. This is where the livery editor comes into place as it adds more variety between cars!

-Better refinement controls for the course maker, such as corner remapping, elevation, rumble strip placement (course maker does not do a good job of this most of the time), sand trap placement, barrier placement, etc. I've seen a program on the PC that uses vector technology that translate into polygons for a course maker/editor. Maybe Polyphony can look into that.

-More broadcast style replays, or even a separate replay editor with complete custom camera placements and control. I always hated the replays in Forza. Gran Turismo has always done a better job in this field. I (if not we) want to see the cameras in actual broadcast locations. I loved the dynamic replay option in GT3 (I forgot the actual name for it, not the one that synced with the music, but the one that actually focused on what GT3 thought was the biggest battles at the time).

-Advanced tuning options is a must. Tire pressure, tire profile, tire width, boost pressure, boost timing, etc. Also, more upgrade parts and BRAKES!!! What happened to the brake upgrade? It was in every other GT game and seems to be every other racing sim similar to GT5. But, it's not here. Brakes are on of the most important parts to any racing machine!

-Where did the nitrous feature go that was in GT4? Although I hardly ever used it, I think it would've done well in drag races at least. And speaking of drag races, were did that feature go too? There was a drag course in GT4 (Las Vegas if I remember). Where's Infineon Raceway? Perfect for drag races and a venue for NASCAR!

-Bring back some classic courses such as Apricot Hill, Midfield Raceway, along with Infineon Raceway, Twin Ring Motegi (4 layouts alone right there). They've already started adding tracks to the game with Spa (which was a great choice).

-Better damage model. The damage model now is something I'd expect from a PS2 game (hint the irony here) and really only incorporates distorted polygons. Only a few premium cars actually have parts fall off or come loose.

This is what I can come with at the top of my head at this time!

I really don't need to a free roam feature in this game. This isn't Midnight Club or Grand Theft Auto. There is also Test Drive Unlimited 1 and 2 for that. It's not really needed in my opinion. Free run yes, free roam no.

One other thing I can say is options. A lot of the features that people may have a mixed opinion on can easily be solved with options! That's why there is an option menu in GT5! But I guess you can't have too many options!

EDIT: Also, here's another thing. An overall better online community. In other words, the ability to upload and place vehicles for sale or a better trading system rather than the weak gift car system, the ability to upload many tracks and share them with everyone rather than just uploading 1 and only sharing with your friends, organising online racing series and placing specific restrictions and maintaining a proper regulation of the series, and, again, if custom liveries ever make it into the game, upload your liveries and share them and even make a couple of credits off of them! These are just some examples!

EDIT 2: Fun fact. There are 648 Japanese models in this game out of 1089 total in game (including the new DLC packs and special cars).

First off I have to say that "The DLC" I trully belive is a Rip off and should be free. I think it's like paying twice for a game I typically don't buy any DLC content becuase I feel it's not right, You bough the game there for anything for it should be with it or a free release. I mean come on you purchased the game at whatever value and then there like ok you paid 60.00 for the game now if you want the other cool cars, or tracks or whatever now you have to pay more just to make your game little more enjoyable. Or add some extra's that you like. again Just My Opinon.

What I would really like is for them to have "All Cars" in the garage as an option. It get annoying having to go through the premium cars/standard list it would make things much easier to just have the cars for me in one big list. Again this is personal prefrence I know they have the favorites but your limited to 100 and if your looking at specs of cars for different races/models it would be easier to compare if everything was in one list.

Steve1234123 thanks
 
I want a cockpit view with the eyes of the pilot that d´ont shake when the car shake and always oriented to the apex, sems that forza 4 have this, must be the only way to be fast in this view. And realistic.
 
Please count me in good sir. 👍

Would like to be added the chance of "GT5 Happy Hour", one day per month cars above Cr. 1.000.000 can be traded.

If not possible, the same method as the restoration cards (created on Spec 2.0).
A crazy man dream... :crazy:

Chat you soon. :)

Count me in aswell. For DLC how about a classic racecar pack. You know, Ford GT40 Mkii, or cars like the Corvette Cheetah. Maybe a classic F1 pack (seems no one has the classic f1 license). F1 cars like the Mclaren MP4/4, The Ferrari F2004 & 412T, or the Lotus Lamborghini Type 97. (I think thats the name) Hope this is a great idea!:)
 
Very good ideas these are exactly what I wanted and expected here (besides the standard interior) , so excellent.

I'm supporting, too!

Livery editor? Hell NO! Don't want the kids to ruin those beautiful cars with crappy vinyls and the like.
You can have a button to turn liveries off.
 
Alot of great ideas. Livery editor is one that I think needs the most attention. The cars are just not as personal as they should. I hate entering a room with a guy using the same color, same rims, same wing, and car, that I use often. If not Livery Editor, then more body kits, preferably more then just lips on the front bumper.
 
I would like to support this too : PSN : bohol86

Like along with the "free roam" there should be like a place..that we can all show cars, but not like at SSR 7 .... like a legit auto show...like a parking lot.....and away to look at all the cars after we "parked" and we can have a "best of show" competition. Anyone agrees?:)

Also more FWD sedans for saudi drifters ;)

I just of something else! Qualifying for A-Spec, B-Spec, and Seasonal Events. Qualifying was everywhere in GT3, and was only in championship races in GT4. Qualifying only exists in the online lobbies as the "Free Run" mode.
