Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[ro_har_]

Welp I have to wait now as I ordered the physical copy of the 25th anniversary

 

[zlays]

As long as people that are reviewing GT7 are not Asphalt or Need for Speed players and actually went to see at least one time in their life real Motorsport race score must be between 85 and 95...

 

[syntex123]

So is anyone expecting any surprises? A feature we haven't been shown yet, maybe?

Ability to customize AI liveries

Nothing in particular. But I'm kindly waiting on how the intro will be . Perhaps a new Daiki Kasho song?!?!? Lol

Yesss. But without the stress inducing piano music beforehand like in GT5.

Got to be Moon Over The Castle, if it’s not, we riot!!

Not the Bring Me The Horizon version. Please! Lol

I'm bolstering my collection of personal decals. You can't rely on others to re-share one that you d/l for GT Sport to be available on day 1 of GT7.

With all the crappy decals people share, I’m good creating my own as always.

My biggest concern for GT7 is that the license tests are going to be an absolute cake walk. GTS is too easy for me and that's with a controller. The target time is way too generous. Then again all the experience accumulated might be making it easier.

Hopefully they are easy. They exist to help beginners learn the ropes. If you're not a beginner they aren't supposed to be a huge challenge.

A long time ago, in a galaxy far, far away, I used to be half decent using Inkscape for breaking some big file size decals down into layers & doing my own. But, either Inkscape updated & doesn't work that way anymore or I've used it so little that I've forgotten anything I did know. Most of the decals I make now are just word logos, so I can do that online.

Kaz already confirmed "MOtC" GT7 version by Masahiro Andoh, so it will almost certainly be the opening theme.

Daiki is pretty much staying on the sidelines this time around in terms of marketing and trailer music.

Have we heard anything about whether or not we would be able to upgrade the digital PS4 version that comes in the 25th anniversary physical edition into the PS5 digital version?

Can you please give me a link with instructions on how i can make mine? I always downloaded them from other people... Is there an easy way?

 

[BigSarj]

I just noticed that in the FAQ, the gen 9 version of ACC has a FoV slider. Just saying..

The 25th Anniversary edition comes with both PS4 and PS5 versions anyway

I'm aware of that, but I'd gladly pay a $10 upgrade fee to upgrade the digital PS4 version into the PS5 version for the convenience of not having to replace my disks, but I still want the physical steelbook 😅

 

[Nagaremono]

Don't be hostile though? I also would like to hear explanations of why championship reward is less problematic than daily spins for being randomized. And I can feel that some people can misblame the spinning part or such when the real problem is cars being unable to be sold.

He’s not saying the roulette spins per se are problematic. The problem (for me very definitely) is that being gifted a car every time you switch on the game and drive a few miles is nowhere near as rewarding as gaining a new car (whether by roulette or not) by working hard to win a race or championship (or just by working to get enough credits to buy a particular car you want).
The daily workload car idea is just absolute lazy pants imo, whether delivered by roulette or whatever means. Every car shld be properly earned, as was the case in gt3 and gt4.

Ah ok, got you now! I assume there will be a 10 (whatever your currency is) update announced at some point. I have to admit I did consider getting the steel book as well as the digital edition just to have it! 😂

I'm quite certain it's already been said that there will just be the upgrade fee. Someone answered that question for me a while back. I think they announced it last year - which titles would have that ability

you can just delete it if you dont want to do that.

 

[Nagaremono]

Probably a lot of unknowns,


-Not being a traditional career mode, will we be able to see a overall of events that we can look forward to, or are we going to be only presented when they show up.


-How exactly will custom weather be implemented, will we be able to script the weather or will there only be sliders like GT5/GT6.


-Picking custom AI in custom race mode will we be able to select only generic cars or will we be able to pick from our home garage


and lot more questions


At this point we've only seen packaged presentations, no actual live game play of people navigating through the menus, playing the game

It’s gonna be fun to find answers to all this. I just pray the career mode is really, really big and challenging, that the daily mileage prize car idea is ditched, and that there are a few big surprises in terms of cars available at launch.
Fingers and toes crossed there’ll also be sthg for people who’ve earned the platinum trophy in GTS (cough Escudo pls)

you can just delete it if you dont want to do that.

I do 99 per cent of the time. Doesn’t stop it being annoying.

What? This community has made tons of fantastic designs and decals.. Just know how to search and almost everything is done. Seems bit of unrespectful to call it crappy imo.

 

[Lord Protector]

i’m just patiently waiting and checking this thread for any GT7 leaked media 😂

 

[matrix_gt1]

Totally agree. Knowing I could spend 50 hours in the game and not receive the car that a person who spent 20 minutes in the game got randomly is just frustrating and doesn’t give the true sense of proper game progression.

 

[Auditore]

Yesss. But without the stress inducing piano music beforehand like in GT5.

But that was the best part.
It's also kinda funny that PD took the already fast piano music from the vanilla game and put it on steroids for spec 2.0 😂

I still remember GTA 5 leaking to players by mistake back in the X360 days

Bunch of lines in this one. Not sure if they mean something, but they do look like track layouts.

 

[NICKname]

that the daily mileage prize car idea is ditched, and that there are a few big surprises in terms of cars available at launch.

You can forget about those two points already. The daily workout and its prize cars have been shown repeatedly in gameplay footage and we know that there if there are any cars we haven't seen yet it would only be a few at most, all of them having an in game file name starting with W, X, Y or Z.

 

[Guffaluff]

That's a cool little TV Spot!

My eyes are not sharp enough, what car is this?

There’s apparently some kind of ticket/voucher system for the daily miles so they’ve obviously at least tweaked it (wld be interested to see the gameplay footage you mention tho) and as regards the cars we haven’t seen, I hope they’re sandbagging. If not, it’s gonna look mighty similar to GTS unless there’s an amazing amount of career mode content. I’ll still play it and enjoy it, but allow me my dream at least until launch...

Looks like a DeLorean to me.

So easy. Forget those online converters (which make most stuff crap unless it’s high resolution). I made a thread for GTS in collab with a few other users to get a few tutorials going. Find them here.

 

[NICKname]

No, that's what I meant. But that's exactly what it was, just with the option to not redeem the tickets. Which is better, but you'll still get the tickets.

and as regards the cars we haven’t seen, I hope they’re sandbagging. If not, it’s gonna look mighty similar to GTS unless there’s an amazing amount of career mode content. I’ll still play it and enjoy it, but allow me my dream at least until launch...

They've said there would be 400+ cars. We've seen a picture of 400 cars on a 20x20 grid and we've seen 19 more in various trailers that weren't in that picture. Those 19 cars seem to have file names starting with W, X, Y, or Z, and aren't seen in that picture because of that (the cars in it seem to have been sorted alphabetically by file name).

It's possible that there are more than 419 cars in the game. They used to talk about 420+ cars until recently. But there won't be many more than we've already seen and they'll all be W-X-Y-Z cars. Mercedes cars with a W-something model name, or Nissan Z cars, stuff like that. Maybe a nice surprise or two at most.

That first green line was a loop. Cape Ring? Autumn Ring? Special Stage?
