Gran Turismo 7’s New Physics Are Not Entirely Going Well

[Nielsen]

“Unintended vehicle behavior is produced…”

Most formal understatement of the century.

 

[Talon16]

Did PD just hire a former Crowdstrike employee?

Grounding planes but making cars fly.

@Famine maybe could have a subtitle to your article, "Holy Rubber baby buggy bumpers!"

I woke up this morning and went to GTPlanet, where I saw this post about the car physics not doing well.

Oh god... what did they do the physics, dude? My game is still updating on my PS4 (Edit: The game finished updating), and now I think this may not be a good update after all.

 

[Talon16]

Gotta go into the shop and buy one of these for you car just in case...

 

[karelpipa]

typical PD, they dont solve problems which exist, they create new ones!

 

[MoLiEG]

Well... I think I'm going to wait until they release an update to fix the update.

I hope PD can bounce back from this quickly.

 

[A_Higher_Place]

That Corolla killed me. Followed by the Samba Bus lightly floating around I have never laughed so hard at a GTPlanet article. These got me good 😂. Thank you.

I love this new light painting feature they added!

It is honestly hilarious watching the AI. But I hope they only fix the issue itself and not revert the physics, as they are awesome when working properly.

The SF cars...

I did not have this on my "bingo card" today . .

Spoiler: SF Grid Start Procedure

They must have an absent-minded professor or two on the payroll.

Related, I think Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang should be included in the next update.

I'll have to see if there's a livery for the Barker once I get home today.

Maybe it’s a sign moon races are coming back.

I just had a try on the Jimny Cup at Eiger Nordwand. Sport Soft tires appear to have so much grip for the high sided Jimny that I keep on falling over!

 

[sonnyboychris]

I said this in another thread but it seems as though PD would benefit from having a varied and dedicated group of users to beta test their updates.

 

[GlockPants]

This brought a tear to my eye.

Magnificent!

I wonder how long before a hot fix is released.

I know some of you younger folks are probably tired of games being broken are are triggered by things like, but I've been playing GT for 25 years and I can live with one ACTUALLY, REAL and HILARIOUS mis-step. I think PD has earned a bit of grace.

Some of these folks never saw the Jeffrey statue flip over on Daytona USA and it shows!

 

[brockie]

Would certainly be a way to thwart them rammers by being able to go go gadget boost into the air momentarily 🤣

While this specific misstep is indeed comical within a vacuum, it is a part of a larger pattern of immersion/game breaking decisions that rightfully pisses people off.

In the industry or GT? I feel like those are 2 different talking points

 

[ruestchiva]

Hopefully they can give us some of the content that is held up as compensation for this mess. LOL #StopTheDripFeeding

 

[RobertHammer]

To be fair i been playing more than 3 hours and i didnt get any physics bugs

what i can see its only doing on custom tuned cars that "enables" the bouncing

I didn't had any problems on that race. I used Racing Softs and have a racing suspension.

You do realized this "I want it all and I want it all now!" mentality is what got us here in the first place, right? You keep demanding things in a hurry, of course things are going to get rushed out.

 

[sonnyboychris]

I'm referring to GT specifically but don't want to derail this thread. Again, I 💯 agree with you that this is a comical bug. But I also feel that level of aggravation you're witnessing is at-least partially due to a laundry list of game breaking decisions by PD that span months/years.

 

[Abyss1]

The height some of these cars are getting it's closer to cloudstrike.

indeed Hi(gh)larious

 

[Mafio]

"Laundry list of game breaking decisions?" Miss me with the drama. This is the first and clostest to an actual "game breaking" decision.

 

[TheNormsk]

It may be because I think my Jimny is engine swapped as well. I didn't really think it. I just pulled my Jimny from the garage, which I believe is engine swapped, wide bodied and has 3 tunes for dirt, snow and tarmac. I chose the tarmac and this was my first go. Needless to say, that tune does not work with the new physics!

This is the first and clostest to an actual "game breaking" decision.

1.07 was much closer, and did actually break the game for a solid 30 hours.

Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.08 is Now Available: Fixes "Serious Issue", Restoring Game Access

After a disastrous 24 hours or so for Gran Turismo 7, a new update is now available that remedies problems introduced by Thursday's v1.07 update. Following the 1.07 patch's deployment, Polyphony Digital reported that a serious issue had been discovered with the update, forcing it to extend the ma

This issue is merely hilarious and only possible at specific, extreme vehicle settings.

Oh... You're one of "those" GT fans... I won't waste my time with you lol. There is a degree of subjectivity to which bugs are "game breaking" for some. I was merely trying to provide a bit of context for why some people are frustrated. But you're obviously a GT stan lol.

This looks fantastic,
