Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[Dave A]

The only thing I can think of is you said ‘how’ is an old Native American greeting which is stereotypical of native Americans?!i Didn’t one of the Sport silhouettes drop AFTER the trailer?!

Indeed it did IIRC, there's no reason yet to think a January update is 100% not happening. It might not happen, but there's a good chance it still will.

If content (like the new Nurburgring layouts and events or even just bug fixes) is going to be held back for a "big" VR update in Feb, I'm sure the players who want nothing to do with VR and have not preordered a PSVR2 are going to be thrilled.

No January content update would be bad news for everyone, including those getting VR in February.

 

[Turboracer]

The full VR support is the only update I need before 22-2

I’ll be more annoyed that i won’t get a second chance on an engine swap ticket, now i might have to cash it in for an engine I already have.

True. This is the first month I've saved engine tickets, with a few bonanza repeats sitting in waiting. I guess it's my fault if we don't get an update. Sorry everyone.

Anyone getting the game now, will experience more content than what us DayOners got. It's a win for new players.

 

[Ande3200]

To me gran turismo 7 is far From perfect specially for cafe, missions driving lession is great through. I would rank it higher than sport still, that was the most boring gt to date for me. Road cars was almost useless no upgrade parts and barely any customize options, witch i think gt7 has done a pretty good job with in my opinion, but if the expand career events, championchips made it easier to earn special parts and swaps would really bring up life to the game

 

[05XR8]

It's crazy. The game has everything. I understand the Sport Mode people and that happy, but a simple press of the "unlock everything" program and this game charts as a must-have in anyone's racing collection.

Oh, yeah but only thiiiis (🤏) much more. The extra 30 cars and 7 track layouts are great to have, but we haven't seen much content added where it's needed most.

A player who starts today can play a few extra Kei and Silvia Sisters events while they're going through the Café campaign (or after Book 39? I'm not sure when they would unlock).

Once they finish the only 5-race championship in the game, they can then buckle in for the same 4-event grind that's been status quo since April. Make that 3 events, as Tokyo600 doesn't have a viable Clean Race Bonus now.

Anyone buying the game now can wait with the rest of us for something to do with IB, IA and S licenses. We'll wait for Online Drift Trials to return. We can wait for the first added championship, or the ability to make our own. We can wait by the Music Rally screen that says "Coming Soon, stay tuned for more events".

 

[BradleyLove]

Making the Human Comedy repeatable would be a simple but effective change.

It doesn't have the Corvette C8R.

 

[Trucker35]

SO good, we get forza stream next week and I hope for a release date in near future so that we can forgetthat GT7 disaster.

I prepare to sell my PS5 and GT7 copy on disc. Who else?

See you back here next week, when you're still complaining about how you're leaving GT7 but yet you're still here...

 

[Suzuki-Cara]

Or roll up in an LFA and keep revving it, so he understands what we need.

Lmao, imagine this:

"So you want a Toyota V10 huh?"

Proceeds to drop this.

 

[turk1993]

I hope they also look in to adding a dash view later on. I hate to play it with a wheel when there is no dash view or cockpit view without the steering wheel in game. Almost all the games with a cockpit view released recently has this, but in GT7 its still missing.

Definitely ain't arguing that. Us all waiting together for the new players to catch up, that's all part of Kaz' master plan.

It doesn't have the Corvette C8R.

What? The one you built isn't good enough?

 

[Lucius 5000]

I kinda understand whats happening in this update. Kaz is introducing a new type of car that is invisible and untangible, it's a VGT collaboration with the National Quantum Physics Institute.

 

[Auditore]

Maybe the final dev push for the PSVR version is dragging them down.
Maybe the holidays is dragging them down.
I think it's one or the other.

 

[Imari]

If it's not going to happen then you'd hope that they'd make some sort of announcement to that effect - they might not intend monthly updates but they have to recognise the expectation that has been very reasonably established. The internets would get rowdy as it does, but it would establish Polyphony's willingness to communicate in situations where they're not absolutely forced into it. Which would be nice.

 

[Monkey Man]

Absorootly Imari.

Ah, that explains the apparent "non-car" that was (not?)seen silently wafting around courses in attract screen demos by many players including myself after last July's update.
I'm keen for the official reveal, though the car likely won't be the same once I observe it.

 

[Techlet]

Quantum shenanigans might also explain the unexistence of the Escudo and Ford Roadster in the LCD.

As well as the eternal Dior Mangusta.

The Dior Mangusta is back in stock ? 👀

 

[hyperspeed980]

Looking back, Kaz has posted a few silhouettes on Monday.

This is my last cope...

 

[speeeyskells]

Plus there still another weekend of January coming up plus maybe everyone getting s bit too worked up over on the lack of update tweet

[tankuroded]

For those freaking out about possibly no updates this month, the months without GT Sport updates (up until February 2020, the last active update month for that game) were:

• June 2018
• February 2019 (made up by two updates in March because of the SF19)
• January 2020

 

[MidnightRun85]

The Dior Mangusta is back in stock ? 👀

It's never left the showroom.

 

[nickf1gr]

It's never left the showroom.

It will remain forever!!!! Until servers go down...

 

[i386]

Until servers go down...

I'm wondering what will happen with the lcd and ucd when gt7 reaches the end of it's life cycle and the servers are shut down...
I hope somebody from the future will answer that
