Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[Silver Arrows]

The most bizarre thing I've ever seen in forums is how, immediately after I make a post here in these heated threads, one of our resident trolls absolutely has to make a counterpoint because, hey, I can't hear praise for the game without balancing it with my empty criticism.

Four people went against you posting frank falsehoods without a shred of evidence. Including a moderator, asking you twice to stop. You ignored them, and have continued to ignore them.

That you decide to call me specifically (since I know you're too chicken**** to actually quote me and tag me) alongside those other people a troll speaks greatly to how you view people who go against you clearly lying.

Makes me reconsider posting here at all, because I feel uncomfortable being around clinically insane people with an obsession towards me. Who knows what else they'll start doing?

By all means, leave if you consider people directly asking you for proof for the **** you spew as 'clinically insane', because it's clear that you yourself are the troll, and are too much of a punk to even have any conviction in the views you espouse.

You literally stalked my posts on another forum. But sure, people who are sick of your **** are "clinically insane" and "obsessed".

Also this.

I'm honestly surprised to hear that you still play this game or even considered buying it at all tbh.

I bought it for league racing and frankly at this point I'm seeing out the season I'm racing in.

The first month was great with update 1.13 FFB but the game has gone backwards with FFB and lag issues and fixed nothing.

Ah, okay then. If I'm honest, I don't see that getting fixed in this update.

I mean, I was optimistic before, but that optimism is slipping. Which is a shame, I thought with GT Sport that PD was changing directions to a better path or something. but apparently not, GT Sport felt like it had way better post-launch support than GT7. Heck, its launch support was better than GT7. Almost like Kaz has stopped caring.

There's also the blank livery they could use.

If the car were to get added, since the alternative is this or the barcode one I really hope they don't block custom liveries. Feels like the easiest solution to the problem.

I have seen custom Marlboro liveries on GT7 right now, so they probably won't.

As I said in a predictions thread, I think it could be the Pikes Peak track coming in this update as that would explain PD's lack of track content in the first 2 updates. They could've been putting their track modeling efforts towards this track as it's a pretty lengthy course at 12.42 miles long. We could even see multiple layouts of this track.

Of course, this is a BIG IF on whether it'll be the track or not, but it would justify in my head somewhat on why we haven't gotten much track content at launch or as DLC, it was in prep for a bigger track.

It'd be great if there's a dirt version and a tarmac version of Pikes Peak. But I have no faith in PD to even put this track at all.

He sounds like a narcissist to me, best to ignore him lol

GT7 may not have a lot of current cars which is a demerit but there's still a lot of fun to be had. All sorts of vehicles are represented and being able to sample most of them is something I enjoy a lot more than GT Sport. This is mainly due to the improved physics which has made each car that little bit more distinct from one another. It still has it's flaws but if you know where to look you can find some truly magnificent driving experiences.

The only thing keeping me from totally abandoning the game is the driving experience because personally I really enjoy it . These days I only boot the game up and just drive for daily workout. Then I switched to another game or if I feel like it, do the WTC 700 Le Mans once or twice.

Thats the only thing I do for the last two month's. Tune any car to +/- 700pp and race there.

It's a sad state of affairs that the only reason to play the game is in case you miss out on a good daily workout reward and for one race.

I'm with you, though the daily workout doesn't tempt me to boot the game up, on days I do play it I tend to play enough to get it if I have time and the WTC 700 at Le Sarthe is probably my most played race. But on occasions where I have a couple of hours to kill, which isn't very often these days, GT7 just isn't enjoyable enough depsite the good driving experience.

Can't believe more people aren't talking about this... wow. Wonder how they are going to handle the Marlboro livery.

I’d say the bigger question is if it’s actually a McLaren. Or if it’s an internal codename for PD’s own version of the car. The old Formula Gran Turismo’s where all based on real F1 cars without an official license.

If Lotus return to GT7. Maybe the ‘85/‘86 turbo F1 car currently in the game will be swapped out for the real JPS model?

Given the improved engine sounds I’d love some of the ‘90’s 3.5 cars to return. The community could recreate entire grids with great liveries.

I didn’t play for a whole month and completely skipped update 1.15. This weekend I noticed significant changes on the penalty system that I thought were introduced with 1.16 but after some further inspection it seems they were introduced with 1.15.

I’m seeing people being rammed off track without penalties being awarded. Is this how it goes since 1.15? I didn’t like the way it was where you got 3 seconds penalty for no reason but this isn’t much better. I was completely destroyed in Suzuka bus stop yesterday and there was no penalty. Wtf is this and why don’t I see people complaining? Do people prefer this to the way it was on 1.13 version?

The real pikes peak king is back baby!

 

[venancio]

GT twitter just asked about tips for mastering a speedway, Grand Valley incoming!!!😎

 

[RandomCarGuy17]

If it's Pikes Peak, I'm going to make a wild guess and say the Peugeot 208 Pikes Peak listed in the datemine will appear at some point aswell. Maybe even the other Pikes Peak cars from GT6.

As much as you guys look forward to the Escudo's return. I really want to see the return of this GT500 car to complete a link in the chain. And if it does come back, it will be in the same exact dealership as the Escudo but probably costing 1.5-2.5 Mil CR. It was also in the datamine And probably a highly requested car.

 

[tankuroded]

Something I thought: Could someone file a lawsuit against PD/SIE regarding their Pikes Peak track license if someone deems that they have no intention of using the license in-game? Also could the LCD pricing be considered a form of price gouging of virtual items?

Oh yess, i'm very hyped also for the garaiya and the aspara drink rx-7

Both are also datamined cars as well. And if they come, they'll be Brand Central cars costing 450,000 CR each.

The only people who could likely take any legal issue with it are the holders of the rights to Pikes Peak, themselves. But, they've most likely been well compensated by PD for the license, so I doubt they care much as long as they're not poorly represented.

Wtf is this and why don’t I see people complaining

I’ve been complaining non stop about it in the daily thread; I’m basically a broken record at this point.

 

[Team THRT Drift]

Great, we get three new cars. Hopefully alongside them, we get a hefty quality of life update. The open lobbies need to be fixed. There are constant hiccups, lag spikes, and hit box issues that make any sort of racing, cruising, or drifting appalling.

 

[Aero2000]

It's definitely gonna be a stock roadster. If that's the case, I hope I can use it to recreate the "Hula Girl" featured in Forza.

I hope so.
Haha, okej, if you do that car - i need to see it

GT twitter just asked about tips for mastering a speedway, Grand Valley incoming!!!😎

This could actually be significant. “Speedway” is not the kind of word people would typically choose for a question like that. Here the Tweet:



Track’s full name is Grand Valley Speedway.

 

[Veinz]

I think they are referring to the oval tracks in the game.

In that case I think they should would have said oval track and not speedway. I’m just speculating of course. The time is right for a new track in GT7.
