Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[Vitesh Patel]

With the curated events at circuits, I've found the AI only start using full throttle if you make contact with them.

Then they are activated like the Winter Soldier, but only until you start to make a gap, then they revert to type. But for those few seconds, they actually try racing you.

If bikes haven't been in a PD game since Tourist Trophy, pretty weird of all things they could put in there, they chose a bike.

Clearly it's suggesting Tourist Trophy 2 will be announced in the next State of Play.

They did put the nissan super silhouette in there too. Both the car and scape came out in the same patch, if I'm not mistaken.
That leads me to believe PD did, to some level, have choice over the cars in the scape. But who knows.

The real Skyline Super Silhouette was sponsored by Tomica. For the same reason it’s a significant model in Tomica’s own lineup. Don’t overthink it.

Since Gran Turismo 1, the franchise has presented us with a significant cast of JGTC or Super GT cars, both GT300 and GT500. The Japanese series has always been heavily present in PD's game.

But curiously in GT Sport and GT7, Super GT appeared very timidly and sporadically, with six GT500 cars from the 2008 and 2016 seasons, just one GT300 car from the 2021 season, and two cars from the 90s.

This is very poor compared to the franchise's lore.

It's 2023, and I miss more modern GT300 and GT500 cars, especially the 2019 season and the new 2022 and 2023 models.

The only certainty I have, for obvious reasons, is that Igor Fraga's Lexus GT300 should appear in any future update.

Isn’t it just standard GT3 Lexus which is already in the game? Just download new Igor Fraga livery on it.

 

[RobertHammer]

Most modern GT300 cars are GT3 cars , only few cars are "special" for that class like the BRZ GT300

i assume we might see the Lexus LC500h GT300 in GT7 if we get lucky maybe Toyota GR86 GT300 too

 

[RACECAR]

Would not at all count on having any of the Mother chassis GT300 cars, just not happening.

I know Kaz is a master and his work after 20 years is amazing, but right now we need someone what really loves the game, the franchise and the respect what the fans deserve.

Miyazono is in Nürburgring as a staff member of Toyo Tires.

Can you ask him to give me more durable Toyo racing tires, so that I can actually try to get my tires to last in these GTWS GT1 races? 😏

Anybody else miss the snow tracks. Wish for more dirt tracks also. Has anything been mentioned from PD about this?

Global warming unfortunately. No snow in the GT universe anymore.

 

[dan_hnnng]

Another thing they should do is increase the collector level cap, I mean come on PD

Only if they make it meaningful in some way. It's just an arbitrary number if it doesnt do anything.

 

[dan_hnnng]

Yes they should make it meaningful.

Create leaderboards, global and national. The data’s there, do something fun with it!

We get a trophy for collecting 10 of the same car, but why not 20, as that's a full grid of cars? More proof of PD doing things in halves.

Not only a reward for players that collected all cars, but for players that collect a certan decade or classics or race cars, etc. There's a whole bunch of mini games PD could create.

 

[Lux Klonoa]

So, uh... is anyone expecting anything at the PS Showcase next week or...? Obviously, it's way too early for GT8 to be announced, though, but still...

'Cause as the above video says, the career mode needs a desperate overhaul at this point. =/

 

[Techlet]

Imagine PD dropping their usual 30 second teaser showing off 3 cars (assuming we're even getting another patch this month) in between all the trailers and reveals of the first party big hitters people have been anticipating.

I don't think so, no one expected that for sure.

Custom race tournaments, so we don't have to use pen/paper & a pc would be a bonus - maybe the already in-place race track tournaments (normally 3 tracks) where you could add you own garage cars or better still a full-on tournament creation menu where you choose your own garage cars, tracks, points allocation, once you go to each venue you then revert to the standard race set up menu/options, all nicely rounded up with a leader board as you progress, & of course a 6 star ticket for the winner

These kind of trophies are useless enough as it is. ;-) If PD keeps trophies like make 100 fotos, buy 10 cars if the same and wash a car 10 times, i will deactivate trophy messages once and for all on my PS5.

Participation trophy era

Stupidity trophy!!!

 

[OldandSlow]

When PD gives me prize money with a trophy, then I'll care about a trophy.

I don’t care for the trophies. I’d prefer the rewards of parts I’ll never use or the umpteenth same roulette car I received. Something. Just for PD to go full on, rather than their normal ”halfa“(half a this and half a that) 50/100 car collector levels, half useful Racing Licences, etc.

Remember the Chamonix circuit in GT4? A mix of tarmac and snow it was so much fun and scenic. Would be great if something like that was prioritised for GT7
