Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[05XR8]

I’m just gonna guess it might not be long before we get the Ioniq 6.

...only because they were carried over from previous Grid titles.

Some of them are new. Like Moscow and London.

The 5 is ok but that thing's ugly🥺

It's over 1400 pages, so I'm not sure if it was discussed here before 😅 ... but I'm very suprised that PD didin't decide to change the max collector's level from 50 to ie. 100 with prizes for each lvl.
It's a simple solution, that would extend the life of the game for many players.

That's something I pointed in the subject "The things that annoy you", the fact that :

• Collector Level stops at 50, while it represents barely 10% of the collection value if you get one of each car
• Tickets stats improve with collector level, but only up to CL 20 (so we keep receiving 90% of 3 and 4* with 90% of the time the lowest price possible)

I don't ask for tickets stats to improve in a linear way, but at least they could improve past CL 20.

I read you, but I’ve seen a couple base Ioniq 6 in the metal and it’s not bad. Pretty unique on the road and they give me Saab 900 feels.

N Vision 74 would be a better fit.

Hyundai makes some decent looking cars in general, but the entire IONIQ series is an eyesore.

...we will get Hyundai Staria 🤣

Bring it on! Add the 3.5 V6 AWD Staria, the Alphard needs a sparring partner.

On the earlier point of GT (and FM) having no city tracks anymore, the perfectionism of building details is a big part of it, yes, you can tell from looking at the Kleine Scheidegg railway station on Eiger Nordwand; that building alone is a few human-years of work – but the more immediate problem is the ground in general. It's why Tokyo Expressway has obscured, blank ground.

'Tree, grass, rumble strip, asphalt' must be relatively simple to model to exacting detail compared to 'doorstep, various pavement, grass patch, telcom pit cover, curb, drain, asphalt'. It'd be tedious enough to model the curbs to the standards of an open world game like FH5 or TDUSC, but when you zoom in to the detail level of GT7's Nürburgring surface, the curbs and drains and individual concrete pavement slabs become a fractally complex nightmare like the coastline problem, until you end up with a street level that you could race 1:64 scale cars on.

Ah! Maybe that's the solution, we could have simple city courses on the smooth, plastic streets of Tomica Town!

I'm still hoping we get more N-branded Hyundai models, especially the Veloster N and Elantra N. Maybe we could even get new made-for-game Gr.4 and Gr.3 racers based on one (or both) of those two, if only to give Hyundai updated entries for the Manufacturers Cup. Plus maybe we could see some older Hyundai models - or at least the Tiburon.

Also, I genuinely think the Ioniq 5 is one of the best-looking EVs I've seen on the road. It'd also be my favorite EV design overall, if not for the fact that the Pininfarina Battista and B95 exist.
