What did they do to my boy Bugs Bunny?

lol. Wrong guy. It's Klonoa. And safe to say certain people within his fandom don't like him being something straight up from Dragonball and Sonic.

Buuuuut I digress. -shrugs and puts on "5OUL" on YouTube-

Maybe?

And he's an actor too. Maybe PD planned to add cinematic cutscenes? :eek:

He does exist in real life. In fact he posts on this very forum...

So it seems unlikely at this point they're going to do the usual early month bugfix patch, given that week 2 is already over. Could the reason be that they're focussing on a slightly bigger update for the end of the month that combines bugfixes with more substantial content?

It seemed unlikely at the time but someone did say a few weeks ago that a middle East eSports series operator had been told there would be two larger than usual updates in the next few months, so here is hoping August is the month for the first of those.

Here‘s hoping - 3 cars a month is simply not enough but even more so the number of current bugs aren‘t acceptable so let’s hope this Middle East eSports Series Operator knows something…

iirc the guy that said the Middle East Operator thing said July and October were supposed to be the big updates for QoL
 
I know it seems unrealistic to expect this, but I think it'd be really cool if when we get the ability to sell cars, we can put them up on the Legendary Cars storefront, and the value of them will notably increase if we've won online races with them, or if you've tuned it with parts. You could see all sorts of stats on it, like how many poles its scored, how many times it finished in the top five in online races, and so on. And if you've volunteered to use a car from your garage for an online time trial, it'll also tell you how many gold/silver/bronze records it has obtained, with the value of the car appreciating accordingly.

Either way, I just wonder if the fact that the Hagerty Collection seems to be but one part of Legendary Cars could indicate that something's in the pipeline. But I bet that Dior-themed Mangusta that's coming this month could be part of a new collection, too.

We also know that some cars that are part of Bonus Menus can only be obtained at the UCD, as seen with the '92 Honda NSX Type R. So I wonder if we'll eventually only be able to obtain some Bonus Menu cars from Legendary Cars? I can't say I'd mind the idea. I also had some more ideas for Bonus Menus. Note that for these, I tried use cars that are already present in GT7. Of course, there are tons more cars I'd like to see in GT7 - including from the PS2 and PS3 era, and beyond - and I am aware of the supposedly leaked list of upcoming cars.

"Bertone" - Lamborghini Countach 25th Anniversary, Lancia Stratos, Abarth 1500 Biposto

"Pininfarina" - Ferrari Testarossa, Ferrari Dino 246, Maserati GranTurismo

"Giugiaro" - DMC DeLorean S2, De Tomaso Mangusta, Volkswagen Golf Mk.1

"Michelotti" - Alpine A110 '72, Nissan Skyline (BLRA-3), Maserati A6G/54 2000 Allemano Coupe

At this point with how long they've taken I sure hope selling cars is a more interesting features than just the usual "discard your cars onto the void and you get credits back". I really like the idea of getting to see how succesful a car was while putting it up on a Forza-style Auction House, maybe it could also tell you which players owned the car before.
 
Gran Turismo 7 Cycle
Days of month : Notes
1-5 : These added cars are pretty cool!
6-10 : I wonder what's next
10-15: It's not next month yet, pondering...
16-20: Hey, it's nearly next month!
21-25: Update announcement soon!!
26-31: Update announced and released, fairly satisfied but there's still no Daihatsu Midget II D-type / Honda City Turbo II / Mercury Cougar XR-7, and there still isn't Pikes Peak / El Capitan / Rome

Repeat
 
I hope they fix the UCD color table, although it will probably be much later if ever fixed, as it has a lower priority than other bug fixes and feature improvements.

Clearly the UCD color table is biased towards certain colors.
I can only wonder if some OEM colors are not included in this color table in the first place.
There is no doubt that the white Trans Am is included in the GT7 game files because AI uses it. But the Trans Am we can buy on UCD is 80% brown, 10% blue, and 10% yellow. I have never seen Trans Am in any other color. What is going on?:confused:

That is curious. Perhaps we are getting a "major" update on the 25th of August.

imagine calling the studio that created the best selling racing simulator incompetent, i really can't understand what's worng with some people, PD is the only studio that is devoloping this technology, it's impossible having it now.

Why would one measure how good a game/franchise is by how much it sells? There are those who just buy something merely because of the game/franchise's name. Measure it by something that actually existed in the game, like how PD still make dumb AIs, rigged roulettes, horrible UI/UX, etc., and never learned anything from other studios, unless if it's too late and if it's lucky.

And hy even put fait on PD developing this technology? PD had countless plans that are never realized due to them being slowpokes. It's easy to make plans. Achieving it is another matter. Why didn't it cross your mind that Sophy would be a disappointment?

It's funny to me that some still can't see the woods for the trees and still dish out the poops.

What?
 
If I look at the results page for Manufacturers via the gran turismo website. Click on my league, select my manu, I can only see the top 100 results, correct? There is no next page, so if at some point I drop off the first 100, I can't find myself and there is also no way to check how many people are currently participating in the season?

Is there another website that has this info?

Just ignore the white knights.
 
I really do not know why they limited dirtying your car to Willow Springs (at least, I've seen it nowhere else). It looks fantastic when your car is muddied up with dirt and oil stains after a longish drive.

Really hope they expand on it. A long endurance race should always result in a pretty filthy car.
