Hadn't clicked on that for awhile - I don't play splitscreen, but would have extensively as a kid - How in the world have they done absolutely nothing about 2P assists being frozen?!? It's been there since day 1.
 

They still didn't include the issue I brought up earlier:

I just won the American Clubman Cup 700 race on Mount Panorama, but the menu icon in World Circuits does not reflect this. (It still says None under Past Results instead of 1st). I've had the same problem yesterday with the Silvia Sisters race on Tokyo Expressway. Is this a known issue?

I am also playing the PS4 version on a PS5 though, so the root of the problem might be the same.

@Baka_Marimo that issue was part of the last update I saw alot of users on the thread for that update having the same issue I was one of the few that didnt get that bug it was pretty random on who it affected.

Thanks, I'm only playing those events now, so I wasn't aware of the issue earlier.
 
I guess the bugged race results and Nurburgring payout aren't considered issues.

Do you mean the European Clubman Cup 600 race added in the 1.27 update? The 25000 CR payout likely isn't a bug, it's exactly the same as the ECC 600 races at Alsace, Brands Hatch and Sardegna.

The difference is that those tracks... aren't the entire Nurburgring. I still believe that the payout was either a typo that meant to say 125k, or that the event was intended for the Nurburgring Sprint layout that we didn't end up getting.
 
I would love that , but for some reason PD is going for 8 year cycle - '08 , '16 and probably '24

at least they could give us the '22 the new Z GT500 , GR Supra GT500 and NSX-GT Type S GT500
I don't mean to direct this at you specifically but it bothers me when people assign a pattern to things that just blatantly don't have one.

There's only two examples of a full GT500 grid in the game, thats absolutely nowhere near enough to say there's an established pattern. They could drop the 2022 season if they wanted to, nothing is stopping them. I'd happily bet there's more of a chance they'll give us 2022 than arbitrarily wait until '24.

I mean we have what, the 2021 GT300 winner and then two old JGTC cars from differing years on top of that. There's no pattern to what they do with Super GT at all aside from the two full sets that happen to be 8 years apart.

People did the same with the new tracks and track layouts. Everyone assigned an on/off alternating pattern to something that literally cycled once and then got annoyed when the new track didn't drop in schedule with the pattern that they made up.

I didn't meant like for whole Super GT , i meant it only for the latest GT500 cars - yes there are 8 years apart thats why i speculated the next batch being in '24 - i will happy if they give me more modern GT500 cars sooner than later heh

I'll admit... I was one of those people. :lol:

But at this point, I feel like irrational pattern recognition is almost one of the hallmarks of being a modern GT fan. That, and wishlists. Lots of 'em. :P

They're 8 years apart yeah, but the 2008s were released in GT Sport after the 2016s anyway so it doesn't make sense as a pattern for them to follow. There's no point assigning patterns and stuff like that to PD, they just put out what they put out.

With PD's Nissan and Super GT relationship, the Z being the reigning GT500 champion and us having the road car ahead of the real launch, I would be surprised to not see at least that car release this year. I think there's more credence to that theory than us getting the 2024 grid because of a 8 year gap that released in the wrong order anyway.
 
So, I guess the whole "wishlisted cars show up as hot in the dealerships" idea was just PD's idea of a Christmas/New Year's present. 'Cause it's all back to normal now.

Finding the update pattern lets us get hyped up for the chance that maybe something from our wishlists will arrive this month.

That reminds me, this January should be track layouts! Nürburgring Type-V and GP/D, here we go! :D

Said I was done guessing, but those Nurb layouts with a ‘90s Benz, would be it for me.
 
Hopefully the shilouettes are this weekend! Would be good to know if 5 cars is the new standard or if it was a one-off thing
I hope so, though they'd have been out of commission for the end of December and beginning of January as everyone else were - I don't expect a mid month update following that.

On another note, tis my birthday tomorrow so... please Kaz?
 
snc
Daily A next week: Monza / McLaren P1 GTR '16 BoP (6 Laps, 1x Tyre/Fuel, RH)
thought you may be interested ;d
That sounds nice I just have to get past my fear of playing online something I only have 7 minutes in total since 2017 and even before that I don't have much time playing online against other people.

Thanks for the heads up @snc :)

They had January updates for GT Sport in 2018 and 2019 so I think they might just release something. Could be that they have nothign until the VR2 update in Feb tho

Oh yeah I don't doubt we'll get a Jan update, I just expect it to be the 26th rather than the 19th. But we shall see!
 
So, they updated "known issues" mid term, guessing they will fix fanatec bug with a hotfix or just wait till January "wheneverth" update. This-

-issue, well.. no comments.
 
We need to make a priority list for Kaz and PD, so they know what to work on first.
These are professional developers getting paid thousands of dollars. You think that they're unable to plan and prioritise and they need the internet to do it for them?
I honestly don't think PD pay THAT much attention as some would like to believe. Yes they are a Sony studio and all this jazz, but we need to remember that PD doesn't seem to operate in anyway like a modern Dev team. I seriously doubt any Forza news will be that big a deal to them, they'll just do whatever they do and that's it.
Polyphony might not, and probably don't for all the overlap there seems to be between what should be two games that are competing hard with each other.

Whoever does the PR for Gran Turismo will be paying attention though, and they'll be doing their best to both undercut any hype for Forza and make sure that Gran Turismo still stays in the public consciousness. And they've probably asked Polyphony to have some stuff up their sleeve that they can use if there are big Forza annoucements. PD doesn't operate much like a modern dev team, but their marketing does.
I know the picture of Meeting they two, there they look like as Greenaway is the biggest fan of Gran turismo and look to Kaz as an idol.
Of course he is. You don't make a game like Forza without recognising that your game wouldn't exist without Gran Turismo.
Didn't know about those interviews.

To be honest I don't like Turn 10‘s Creative Director, Dan Greenawalt answers about GT. He really sounded to cocky in my opinion.
That interview was in 2009. GT5 was in development hell. T10 was just about to put out FM3, which was an excellent game for the time. GT4 was on last gen, and GT5P was tiny. The cockiness was entirely justified, as Polyphony was in the middle of fumbling control of a genre that they had created themselves.

Polyphony would later put out GT5, which had issues. T10 then put out FM4, generally considered to be peak Forza Motorsport. It's not cocky if you're actually that good, it's just honest.

What he's saying is that two data points aren't enough to determine if there's a pattern.

LOL. Well said.
 
Today, I tried my hand again at using a 911 GT1 for the 700pp LeMans race and it went okay. It can last 3 laps between pitstops when power-lean at 6.

I also finally for the first time reached 20 million credits in this game, I bought a Jaguar XJ13 with that and then saved up some money again for another F1 GTR Longtail. I just didn't feel like getting the 250 GTO yet, maybe later.
