If the Sera ever returns (it better), it would make sense just for a reference to GT4.
 
Named after the third Tojo clan chairman 😂
Didn't expect to see a Yakuza Series reference here lol.

I wonder if we are getting any new tracks this week or not? (Weeks starts on Sunday over here).

Haven't seen this mentioned, if it has, I apologize!

The headline "leaked" is quite clickbaity, but it's a interesting observation, a wet Deep Forest on display for a short moment. Perhaps we will get rain added to more tracks in the future. I surely hope so :)

 
Going 200+ mph down the Mulsanne straight?
With hard enough contact, its not unlikely (Especially with the sweaties nowadays who you'd swear were fighting to save themselves)
 
It may have quirky styling but from a mechanical standpoint it's rather boring.
I would argue being able to drive regular boring cars is a staple in Gran Turismo and Forza Motorsport games.

Maybe not with that Sera but among one of the most fun i ever had in those games were racing a grid full of Audi A2's down in Silverstone and racing tiny ecoboxes like Aygo and Citroen in Motorsport 4.

Love the Yakuza franchise, I really hope we get new circuits to, I've stopped playing and moved onto f122 so I really hope there's decent content coming.

/Off topic
I heard of the series for a number of years now but it wasn't until 2020 where i decided to bite the bullet and buy Yakaza 0 + Kiwami for 5-10 bucks each.

Spoiler alert, Zero is now among one of my most favourite games out there. Currently took a break from Kiwami 2, planning to finish it someday.

/On topic
Yeah, i have mostly stopped playing GT7 aside from the occasional uploads of decals and such. The june update brought me back into the game a little bit but i ran out of interest within' few days.

Rain coming to more tracks would be great. Hopefully it's more than just Deep Forest.
 
Still so curious about that when PC2 managed fully dynamic conditions on all its tracks, on and off track lighting and all, on top of those tracks having seasonal changes. With PDs budget and outreach, I can only think it's lack of priority.

But I can't tell what's actually being prioritized with how leisurely and sporadically things are changing and being added.

Its quite obvious, because the tracks were so low detail in each PC game they looked like ps3 era renders. With GT7 the hold back is the cross gen issue, the base ps4 must be having every last ounce of processing being used to keep the frame rate smooth. What's likely being prioritised is GT8 they want their multi million pound pay day again, hence its bare minimum trickle, it's a real tease when the game has great gameplay, but is so similar to GTS content wise. The next game should be here in 3/4 years, and have the taps wide open exploiting the PS5's full potential.
 
Most importantly, I wish you can Forzavista cars in GT7, such as by exploring the engine bays, trunks and other such features.
What's sad is I really thought we were going to see that with this game, I thought it'd be a given actually considering the new hardware. Maybe GT8 will have a Forzavista type of mode that could be incorporated into scapes.

They mention a possible new track to be added. It would be funny if Deep Forest with rain is this "new" track.

it does look more like a caterham than what is suggested to me too

Nope… nothing like a Caterham, even the 90s and earlier versions with the clam shell front mudguards don’t melt into the body like that, the rear is too long for a 7 style vehicle,

I’ve spent 25years of my life around Caterhams and 7 type vehicles in road and race form

Agreed, it's a dead cert for the Maserati. I've also been close to Caterhams for a period of my life, a close friend owned a couple, and I live fairly close to a dealership that sells them at present and it's no match for any Caterham I've seen.

On the topic of Caterhams, the 21 is under represented in racing games.

I really hope they beef up the exhaust effects for the SS R30.
They've accurately captured all the engine sounds with multiple mics (for 3d audio), there should be plenty of snap crackle and pop im sure! Been having a blast in Penzoil skyline today and it makes some lovely sounds as you ease off the throttle...
