Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[Nielsen]

They're figuring out how to clone them so we can have more GT86 models.

You may be onto something. Both cars having boxer engines is a good start.

Funny. But I ask again, is that bad?

This is a MR-S. R8 engine swapable.

Also saw this article today. Shows the difference in suspension between the GR86 and the BRZ.

Man, I hate Fuji.

I beat the drift king. 😙

I found the list of ingame soundtracks in the Showcase section, but there seems to be no option to filter out those you don't want to listen to. Most of the previous games allowed you to disable select songs but I can't find such an option in GT7. Is it really not there or am I overlooking it?

There's literally an On/Off switch on the menu you're looking at for each song? Press triangle when you hover over them. It says at the top.

Nope. Pressing triangle also does nothing.

edit: The option you're mentioning is there for Race BGM, but not for Menu BGM.

Hah, that's a weird one. Typical PD design decisions I suppose. I knew it was there for race music so just figured it was there for the menus as well.

 

[Lux Klonoa]

Not really. You can't edit the Menu BGM because it's "baked" into the menus. Like the Tuning Shop and Used Car Dealer which only play a select few of the songs. Turn off any of them and the game will likely crash or something, I imagine.

They really need to address decal resolution

Very strange bug I just found - traction control has no effect on the Superbird. Even at TCS 5.

Yeah, that's weird. I guess some birds just won't let you put them in a cage.

The setup bug hasn't been fixed either.

 

[GTboyz]

Damn, how fast did the Ghost at Monza CE actually go? I got left behind and I still got gold.

So after nearly 17K miles on the Ford GT 2018 Race car...

Only now just noticed that on the center console, there is a "nitrous arm" button, with a full on nitrous bottle as the symbol. I'm unsure if PD did this as a joke, or the Ford team did it. Still, got a chuckle out of me.

 

[RACECAR]

I shudder to think what the end result would be should you try to cage the Firebird.

Hi! I live in Austria and never find time to race the big events like world series because.
I tend to drive on Saturday and Sunday mornings between 6 and 10 am.

Are there any time zones/countries i can activate on my second account that fit the time i am driving? And is it possible to change countries?

Thanks you!

I'm not sure why you can't drive them between 6am and 10am in the morning Australian time? Or do you mean online events?

I think they mean stuff like manu and nations cup, the times for those are in the late afternoon whereas they can only race in the morning.

If they make an alt account it adjusts the time, say I make an American alt the timeslots for those races for that account are now around 1am my time to match the American timeslots, instead of 7pm when the EU ones are.

They want an alt that has these slots fall on their avaliable times, which I guess would have to be Asia, as I think America runs too early still.

 

[GTboyz]

Can't believe I'm saying this but swapped Tundra is absolute fun to drive. It can hang with Gr. 4 cars too!

 

[KAlex122]

WTF Australia? Austria! ;-)

Found this:

Gran Turismo World Series Online Season 1 Begins Today

The official esports championship of Gran Turismo 7, the GT World Series, gets underway with its first online qualifying rounds today. Players of any ability and in countries around the world can participate in the World Series, so long as they have access to a copy of GT7 -- whether on PlayStati

www.gtplanet.net

Not really possible. I could only race at 8 and 9 am on Saturdays in the Nations Cup on the days nations cup is on Saturdays. Thats too little. I stay in my regions and maybe i get to drive one once in a while.

 

[Famine]

WTF Australia? Austria! ;-)

Pretty sure @Dave A was pointing out that if you use an account in the Oceania region then you would be able to race at 8-9am your time in Nations Cup on Saturdays. Since that's right in the middle of the Oceania Nations Cup slots.

Although the lag would be pretty bad.

 

[KAlex122]

Ah.

And i also didnt think about increased lag.

 

[Streeto]

How does this even make sense? 😂

 

[TheRacer94]

New track too for this month Toyota cup race on 28th august TBD

 

[Nebuc72]

Ah.

And i also didnt think about increased lag.

To be honest, Sport netcode is really solid. I have foreign alts and it's honestly no different to racing against Europeans, it's only really a problem in lobbies. It's worth a try if that's what your availability is like, I don't think you'll have any problems with lag.

I am looking for a topic in the gran turismo subforum to ask about about the steering wheel and station.

I have the Apex stand and a T300 and the TH8A shifter mounted.
The stand is great and steady as a rock!
