Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[GTboyz]

Whoever made that jump right in front of the starting line on Sardegna windmill should be punched.

1 million is two Gr3s plus select tyres, or two Gr4s with all tyres, or one Manu pairing (Gr4/Gr3) with most tyres. Or one Gr2 with all the tyres.

All cars which you'll use every day in the daily races.

I'd say that makes 1 million pretty good.

I don't use race cars in GT.

My daily races are normal cool road cars. Like Mclaren F1.

Yes, in fact it's not.

 

[DS13_supergt]

Well... This must be done

 

[BEBOP_Bill]

Gr3, on a wheel, cockpit view, off-set camera, camera wobble 2, racing around Bathurst is pure mage. Driving from night into the early morning its just magical.

Yes, in fact it's not.

Most road cars (unicorns like the McLaren excepted) are even cheaper than a Gr3 car, so my point still stands.

1 million goes a long way in this game.

GT7 The Real Mclaren F1 is the only car Simulator

I second this.

Windmills has the stupidest ‘layout’ of any track I’ve ever seen. The jumps before the finish line that’d literally throw cars into the pits and kill anyone in there. Utterly frustrating. The AI cars fly through, but you have either massively slow down and hand it to the AI, or take a 50-50 chance on instant death.

Every rally event in 7 should be rallycross. None entirely off-road, and none entirely on track (Gr B in central Tokyo? Nah. It suspends my suspension of disbelief...)

Rallycross could definitely be fun. Am I misremembering, or was there an early GT track called Yomesite (or something similar) that had a mixed dirt & tarmac circuit?

There was one in GT4 I think, called sthg weird like El Capitan or sthg, which could be the one you’re thinking of. It looked like Yosemite to me IIRC, mountains and pine forest and a mixed dirt/tarmac track. Can’t remember anything like that in 3, and I never played any of the other games so not sure if it’s a later one you remember.

Sthg like that would be good.

 

[Famine]

sthg ... sthg ... Sthg

What?

Also El Capitan - which was indeed in Yosemite National Park - was a normal circuit. Cathedral Rocks was the dirt track in the same location, and of the three Cathedral Rocks courses (two in GT4, the third in GT PSP), Cathedral Rocks I used part of the El Capitan course.

It wasn't the first mixed-surface track though. Tahiti Dirt Route 3 in GT2 was.

Most interesting cars are much more expensive. Have you ever heard about Ferrari, Lamborghini and others? It's like they are not there because I can't buy any. The game feels extremely empty without any cars or races. Like MC says...

 

[Canucks_9419]

Just a gripe I wish in the Legand car dealership they would just replace the car that's not available anymore right away. We don't need to see that it's "sold out" for a day. Just drop it and put in the next one! Stop wasting time, I want to see what's next.... CMON CLK GTR!

/mini rant over

This! Unbelievably poor design to lose an entire day's cycle looking at "Sold Out" in both UCD and Legends lots.

If not all cars are in the game, the design feels rather clever. And he said, they will offer more cars later... after they add them.

OK thanks.

Yeah, nearly twenty years so it’s all a pretty vague mish-mash to me now.

So . . . about that helicopter at St Croix . . . it makes some slightly cursed movements.

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

I did this yesterday, I finally got the 2017 Ford GT and completed my GT/GT40 collection. I have all of them now! Yes!

Well, unless Polyphony decides to troll me by adding a Mark 2 or 3 GT40 as part of the first update pack of cars or something, but that's unlikely...or is it?

Nice, I have 2/3rds of those.

You need the GT LM car in there, too!

Damn... you've been busy

Oh yes, I was determined, I wanted them that bad. The funny thing is that I also grinded for more things than just those. Though to note, a lot of these cars including the 911 GT1s & F40s below were acquired prior to the v1.07 update.

Lmao, like the airplanes at Daytona that come in at mach 5 then slow down to about 180. 🤣

Wait... they do WHAT?

You'll notice it on the full lap circuit experience. Watch the skies when you start at Daytona lmao, It gets me everytime.

 

[NickGuy]

what track do you bros use to test out how a new car feels? i just wanna take all these road cars i never use for a test drive, but idk what the best track for that is

Nordschleife.

 

[Magog]

But no, really. For a low powered road car Alsace is a good fit.

As much as I dislike Spa, I have to agree with it for testing road cars. The two straights are good enough to get a feel for the top speed, and the few turns at the bottom left corner of the track are good for testing the different compounds.

I go to World GT series,Deep Valley and then Spa, today it was the "Wicked Fabrication GT 51", i didn't think it would be ok with 0.0 front downforce but it was good fun,will do all 5 tracks another day.
