Hi there.
I haven't seen this asked before, and I am very confused about it.
On Amazon, I pre-ordered the physical 25th anniversary edition of GT7 in September, and I'm wondering how I can pre-install it? Of course the physical version would arrive March 4, but does that mean the PS4 digital version of the game also won't arrive until then? I'm unsure how to get my hands on the digital version before then, like others have already. I was assuming I may get a code delivered to the email of my Amazon account, possibly today, but I'm not sure.

I believe the download code is written on a card inside the physical case.

@Scaff or anyone who knows.
Explain GT’s non-linear throttle and brake to me, and why they don’t feel nearly as intuitive as the likes of say…. ACC or fill-in-the-blank hardcore sim
Been playing a lot of ACC, and it’s amazing to me how much better the brake feels. It actually feels like Im slowing down the car when I use the brake, as opposed to GTS where the brake feels like an on/off switch except for the slight ability to trail brake into a corner for car rotation.
At first, I thought it was a placebo affect in ACC due to some of the views simulating body/head movements when braking. So I tried the more static dash view, and same thing…. Modulating my load cell brake actually felt like it’s supposed to.
In GTS, I was beginning to think my braking issues necessitated better pedals for better feel and modulation from more dynamic elastomer stacks. But after playing ACC, I’ve realized it’s not my pedals at all, or even my ability. It’s the coding and implementation of the throttle and load cell brakes by PD.
I truly hope they improve at least this stuff in GT7…
Someone school me up!!

Sorry to bring up this old discussion from last year, but for those of you who were/are still categorically against releasing GT7 both on PS5 and PS4:
DO you still fear that the graphics and performance on the PS5 will be pulled down or compromised because the game is developed to be played also on the PS4?
What is your take now? Do you still have worries about it ?
I was a fervent believer that the release on both console is the smart financial choice for Sony and PD, and believed in PD's ability to pull it off making the best for both console...
You guys lacked confidence in PD, i hope you now see that Kaz proved you wrong... thankfully for all of us...

ACC implementation of adaptive triggers is awful just to let you know

The throttle is the easiest one to explain, with GTS you get around 70% of the throttle travel to control the first 20% of the actual application of power with only the remaining 30% of travel for a massive 70% of the power.
While these percentages are approximates, its basically what happens, and it makes throttle control a pain in the butt.
I suspect its to get around the low speed tyre model issues, but regardless of the reason, it's a challenge we shouldn't have to deal with.
Nothing has been proven yet, as we've not actually played it.

Yeah I downloaded the PS5 version this morning. Even had my mom facetime me while I was at work to see if the additional bonus items were there. Sadly they were not. Checked on library.playstation.com and they didn't show up there either. All I see is the music soundtrack.

One more week, then everything will be brought to ray tracing light: the bad, the ugly and the worst...
EDIT: what are your main concern(s) after everything that we have seen so far since last year ? Have they been able to clarify anything with one week left before the official release ?
Just curious to see your take on this...

Makes sense.
In ACC, I’ve had very little trouble using TCS 1 or even “0” if I want to. In GTS, I struggle to use TCS 0 with any consistency in gr.3 cars and above (same for un-modded high N-class cars)
For the brake in ACC, I can go very low with the ABS as well with little in the way of problems. It’s like all these hours of playing Gran Turismo has somehow prepared me for more realistic Sims.
Well…kinda.
I still need to break my habit of absolutely murdering kerbs like we’re able to in GTS
