Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

But how are you going to get to that screen if the track is not unlocked and selectable on the map menu?

Maybe it is selectable but you cant do **** except arcade, or is there any proof of not being selectable?

To select a track the box needs to appear with the text. Tracks not unlocked don't have it, they just have the red dot.

Only six tracks can be selected here, as Trial Mountain is currently. The other four are not unlocked and are just dots.

New vid?

Looks Good.

But man, do I hate that song.

 

[Samus]

It's not a new video. Someone has just compiled the state of play and all the B-Roll footage that got uploaded by various media outlets.

Like this one from IGN



Or even the GTP one




That's what people do on youtube all the time to rake in the views, pass off old footage from somewhere else as new.

If that is true, my earlier statement doesn't make any sense at all...

I found something new at The Cutting Room Floor for GTS. These are early icons for missions.

Is there any 4C with livery like this in trailers? Lancer is basically N300 variant like ND had N200 variant, so this can be easily recreated by tuning. 208 GTi is a weaker version than the one already available in GTS/7, since PD included three different 206s (CC, S16 and GTi) in GT4-6, and we'll have two ITRs, Clios and S13s in GT7, I would not be surprised if this 208 makes it to GT7 update.

Holy smokes, that's a pre-facelift 208 GTi! Is there anywhere where I can find out more about it?

Nice to see LMP1 and GT3 together.

 

[Veinz]

Too bad the car count won’t be higher. Meanwhile the PS5 version of ACC will have 30 cars in mp.

 

[Gingerale]

And create the best physics engine. ( They can. they have years of experience)

Lol yeah why doesn't PD just create the best physics engine?
Really weird choice.


Posts like these are hilarious.

I'm more concerned about the number of tracks than number of cars.

I would rather have half the amount of cars for half more amount of tracks

with cars being added with dlc's

I'm the same. A few cars that handle in a pleasurable way and a huge amount of tracks is all I need to be satisfied. Hoping the track creator will come as an update this year.

I don‘t understand why most people wonder about the amount of tracks. I just see the difference from GTS release to now and we have much more tracks. I see it more as progress that we were able to receive tracks in GT Sport with updates and now only Deep Forest, Trial Mountain, High Speed Ring and Daytona as returning tracks for Gran Turismo 7. I‘m fine with it.

Then we will see whether they reworked the other tracks just for rainy conditions or more. In Le Mans I read much Rolex signs on the walls, I can‘t remember saw it that much there in GT Sport.

I'm not dissatisfied with the amount of tracks it has but I'm far more excited for the tracks they will add than the cars they will add.

@Magog that‘s what I am waiting for.

Because in a new game I expect new content. It's pretty simple. GT games have always done this in the past, GT7 is the first not to.

yeah this is for now my biggest problem. 20 cars isn't very bad, but it really hurts possibilities in this game. They could just make more cars in grids possible just for PS5 version.

Same here. I've said it before, but tracks are far more important to me than car counts.

 

[Neddo]

Is there a clock for time of day on any video like in GT5/6?

 

[o000o]

The first four are literally the same. The trophy is different, but that's probably a newer build on top with less generic trophies.

Then you writing "not that many" refered to what? I know that the first four are literally the same, but my point there was about how there would be more Championship races to appear at that menu, with the first pic showing only 4 then the 2nd pic showing 6. and not that the one's shown at the trailer is the only amount of Championship race that will be there.

 

[Samus]

That six is not many? Not sure where the confusion lies. Of course there may be more, but we have no idea how many, so I can only comment on what we've seen so far.

Royal Philharmonic Orchestra - Can't Stop The Classics

 

[Monkey Man]

They jumped on the Hooked on Classics "bandwagon".

Hopefully the wagon was just driving and not racing. Would not have been pretty otherwise...

 

[Elitekilla29]

Isn't it frustrating that every time they show the tuning upgrades page you see the them scrolling over and they'll stop right before they scroll to extreme. Like come on man just show off what's on that page lol. I know its probably nitrous and something dealing with engine swaps maybe....but still it would be nice see what's actually on that page.

 

[Monkey Man]

They know how to tease.

Increases specumalation and hype.

 

[warp9engage]

I'd like to be corrected, if I'm wrong, but the idea that more tracks could have been made if there were less cars, or vice-versa, has a bit of a hole in it. There isn't just one art team that does all sorts of things. You don't have a person working on a car one day, then having to put that on hold, to work on a track, every other day. There's a dedicated car artist team and there's a dedicated environment artist team. One team does not rob elements from the other in a way that one is prevented from working at full capacity. At least, certainly, not under normal development circumstances.

Great to see an improvement in photomode/scapes and what appears some water droplets texture applied to the car.

 

[RedRockValley]

Is there any indication that Seasonal Events are returning? I found these were great moneymakers in GT6, while also providing a decent challenge.

With the car prices now mostly reflecting real life in GT7, I think it would be a very welcome return to the franchise. Would also help a lot with obtaining the 20 million CR vintage racers...

Water droplets textures on scapes were already on Sport though, but it looks much better overall compared to Sport.

 

[Ryan81]

Once GT7 comes out, would it be even worth keeping GTS?

Exactly.
