Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[Rossell2]

I can't wait for daily race A with the Jimny.

 

[Interstellar9]

3 cars...disappointing. Very disappointing.

 

[Nielsen]

For once a batch of new cars that doesn’t have something for everyone. Nothing I want to drive here.

 

[05XR8]

Heritage model?

 

[RobertHammer]

Kinda meh selection but i like those VGTs , lets see the rest of the update later

 

[Reeneman]

In terms of the cars it’s a bit meeh.
Hoping for other features and improvements with the update.

Man, this makes me wish Polyphony increased their production of cars per update, like in the days of GT Sport where we were at 12 cars a month during its early days, but this was mainly due to the fact that GT Sport was short on cars.

If we went back to this level of content production, it's possible that by the end of this year, we could already be at over 600 cars.

But with this update, we're now at 491 cars, so close to a major milestone: the 500-car region.

 

[Blayney]

Be a fun update if the Jimny came with an offroading map to play around in

 

[GlamFM]

Yikes.

It turns out that the Jimny is depicted in the otherwise underwhelming kei car version, as opposed to the Sierra which everyone is familiar with.

 

[syoboon]

Jimny is likely to be a Kei model without black expansion arches

 

[Reeneman]

One of the VGTs is a good when you participated in the last viewers campaign, right?

 

[Clinton Ducks]

When new tracks have been in updates are they teased as well in a similar manner?

No, we discover them in the update trailer, coming one day before the update

Oof. Thats going to be 64PS turbo with an auto. Just over 1000kg.

 

[Kedmasterz]

Maybe crazy engine swap for the Jimny

Knowing how GT Auto works with its spare parts you never know. Plus the livery editor can help.

Okay so there’s chance for a track still, as an explanation for it being an apparently light update. Not gonna hold my breath, like… but, maybe!

 

[Nebuc72]

For what it's worth, Nenkai has said there's no track coming in the Discord. Wouldn't get your hopes up for one.

 

[Clinton Ducks]

What’s a nenkai? And what exactly is discord for that matter?

 

[Emet_PL]

Small model updates are the key. If they had high quality model in the first place then there is no wrong in updating it. But it is not uncanny valley like in Forza with some cars.

True, but some models don't have any mesh update (no more polygons), so there are very visible polygon edges in some places.

First reaction was "oof this is going to get ugly on the forums." I can see the Jimmy being a grip monster with it's low power while being AWD and having a modern chassis. I don't believe engine swaps have been immediately available for new cars (correct me if I'm wrong) but I can see it getting some silly and fun stuff in the future.

 

[Nielsen]

To everyone referring to the Suzuki Jimny as “Jimmy”… Please stop. 😐

My friend once said that the Jimny is a death trap, mostly due to its light weight and high center of gravity.

 

[Artremis]

Not too interested in the cars. Hoping for Sophy improvements

Escudo swap... please?

 

[RCKakashi14]

I am eager to try out the Genesis VGT.

The Jimny? Hoping it does come with an immediate engine swap option but I am pretty sure it won't.

As always, my expectations are tempered each time the silhouettes drop.

I am in the camp who want more quality of life updates than new content.

 

[Lomic]

Not disappointed. In the meantime my hopes were low.
