Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[ScottPuss20]

I honestly wanna see how it drives with these physics rn, seems to me (as a guess) that most track cars will still have an extremely loose rear.

It turns in really well given that you actually get it stopped for the corner. Getting on the throttle is bit sketchy because the car doesn't stick to the road properly, a lot like the Radical. The physics don't handle the light cars very well.

You can't have a sextillion credits unless you spend 10 quadrillion US dollars.
Edit: which would be problematic, as there isn't that much currency in existence.

No way.... I'll print more money! Inflation?? What's that????

I'm on the fence to even open the 25th Anniversary I have. PS5 is on the way and I'm wondering if I made the right decision choosing GT7 over whatever the next Forza Motorsport is going to be. For me, choosing a PS5 or XB1 was a tough choice between guessing how the exclusive racing games would turn out.

I would be starting GT7 with the nerfed economy. Maybe I should wait longer to see if they will fix that. The game is unopened and I can still return it.

Refund GT7.

RE: PS5: Check which of your PS4 games as a free or cheap upgrade to PS5 because they kinda change the experience of some games, also the Astro's Playroom demo is a pretty good experience while you're waiting for things to download and install. If you don't have anything worth playing in upgraded form then you're probably better off reselling the console for 150-200% of the value.

I have a tuned widebody 370 Z that has insaine grip on STOCK tires. Yet the RX8 and S2000 seem very tail happy.. The S2000 is very easy to recover and drift , Rx8 is not but you can coast at litteraly any speed and not loose grip .

Roulette is savage. Get a 5 star ticket, and it had some decent stuff out there. GrB Subie, an engine, a pile of gold bricks, some engine parts, and an Aston Martin invite.

Of course I get the invite, the most worthless ******* thing out there.

Mine will give me a 1, 3 or 4 star (never seem to get others outside of the menus), show me cars and engines and invites and parts and a little stack of coins, and give me the smallest stack of coins pretty much without fail. I've won 1 star tickets that give me 2000cr significantly more often than anything else. I got some luck on the late menu books, getting an RX-8 and an M6 GT3 and 500,000cr. Otherwise, only pennies. Though getting an invite would be a slap in the face, especially for a car I already have. Winning the opportunity to have to grind to pay for something? Not much of a win.

ah, yes, the invite. the only prize more annoying than the smallest pile of credits. I currently have invites for 3 Ferraris I can't afford, the Veyron and, most bizarrely, the weird angled blob that Citroen built about 10 of. Pointless

 

[Suzuki-Cara]

I suspect with that GT40 road car now at Hagerty, some mad lad's going to make a custom race with historical cars such as the Datsun, stratos, KPGC10, etc......

I find it a weird choice by PD to make the 1 million credit Citroen invitation only when it was basically a VGT car, and every other VGT is freely available without invitation.
I let my Lambo Veneno invite expire because I'm more interested in something else.
My Ferrari invite expires in about 45hrs, but I doubt I'll bite.

Sigh...yeah. This is exactly what I didn't want to do. I mean, I'm good with games like God of War, Ratchet, Horizon, Sac Boy, Spiderman, etc. But honestly all those franchises I was "goo goo ga ga" for on the PS4 (or even PS3 era) I never finished them. The only franchise I truly kept coming back to the last 10 years or so is Gran Turismo (5, 6 and Sport). Also I loved Motorsport and Driveclub.

So all this bad press is discouraging. I want to play the "new thing" now but maybe I should take your advice and wait til 2023.

Honestly, just watching youtube vids everything next gen looks like more of the same ol experiences with just a little xtra polish. I was hoping the whole haptic thing would make the experiences feel new.

I find the whole invite system weird. I won an invite to the damn thing (three invites atm), why the **** does it have to expire


Edit: I'll not buy/use them out of spite for this horrid system.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

Today's roulette wheel for me was 5 stars and I got 100,000 credits. Which is going towards the Ford GT40 that popped into the legendary dealership. I'm trying different types of credit farming, mostly Sardenga Windmills, it takes around 1 minute more to finish than Fisherman's Ranch, but I get 60,000 credits with the clean race bonus.

 

[GTboyz]

I'm glad that changing the exhausts does not only have an impact in sound and performance, but also visual. It's a pity that we can't see that being reflected on weight reduction, but given that there are lots of visual customization, I really can't complain that much. Polyphony should address this for the next game.

I just hope they add bucket seats and steering wheel custom parts in a future update.

Ah yes, the Citroen GT.
I Actually like this car, my father used to show me that car a lot, and I fell in love with it, only to realise that:
1. It's a collaboration with Gran Turismo
2. almost no one like this car
3. I have weird preferences and likes

I like nearly all the VGTs. The weirder the better.

 

[GTboyz]

Just realized I could get the 997 GT3 for free from the American championship. I just bought 1 yesterday....

Goddammit.

Today's roulette card of death is.............a racing muffler for a Toyota Crown that I will never use. 💩

I have all of these games in my steam library, and no computer to run them 😡

So, every summer and winter sale, I collect more of them in hopes of one day being able to source the damn parts I want.

Nothing weird about liking the wonderful Citroën GT 😍

I hate that the parts you get from the roulette card are tied to a certain car. If they weren't, then they would actually be useful.

With the game's economy being what it is, any free parts would be nice, but no, they just had to tie it to a certain car.

I got a high-rpm turbo for the Subaru BRZ drift car, and that is perhaps the most worthless thing I could have gotten.

I'm interested in the Honda S800, does anyone have one ?

The BRZ drift car is actually fun. I made a race tune for it in Sport, proper quick around the ‘ring.

Meanwhile, I got a camshaft upgrade for the Audi TT, worth 6,200Cr..

What are you expecting exactly? They are working on bug fixes, new content and the GT World Series that started this week.

LOL, I don't mind grinding for brand invitational cars. Could you gift me that invite, please? 😇

Is there any place i can see which parts for which cars i won in the lottery? They don't expect us to remember every part for cars i maybe won't own for years.
