Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[Nebuc72]

There's definitely some aspects to tyre rules (separate from the simulation engine) I definitely wouldn't want PD to model/emulate even though it'd be more realistic.

Like, I don't think the game would be improved at all by them going "Real life GT3 race series only use one dry tyre compound, so now Gr.3 cars are only compatible with RH tyres".

Yeah I fully agree with this. I think where it matters the game is as realistic as it needs to be, it's not trying to be a full fledged simulator - but it does a very good job at being close to one whilst still being a game anyone can play.

You can't honk your horn.

Except you can. It's a hidden option in the controller settings that you have to remap a button to.

 

[StealthVel]

Is there a Gathers Civic or MUGEN MOTUL in the one-make? 🤔

Is it really a simulator if you can’t honk your horn?

No way !
I use a steering wheel, so I'll have to see about that as soon as possible.

No Gathers one from my outings, but I do believe a Motul Parody exists.

[jrbabbitt]

....I don't think they mind..

Is that Kaz?

 

[Rangeraus]

Is that Kaz?

Yes, the photo is from an article published on the GT website:

Kazunori Yamauchi completes the "25 Hours of Thunder Hill"

"Gran Turismo" series creator and producer Kazunori Yamauchi competed in and successfully completed ...

Beat me to it. If PD got that money situation sorted, it’s good times for us all. Maybe.

 

[PSN offapple]

Oh mad what a spot!
Though Kaz having a model of a Lotus Esprit Turbo is far from a guarantee of one being added to the actual game, it's of note that it's a different Esprit that was included in the old datamine list:
* esprit_v8_02
Not that the old datamine list contained all of the cars that have been added in updates, nor is it likely that all of the ones in the list will arrive at some point.
Just an interesting observation I thought I'd mention.

Evidently Kaz still has an interest in Lotus, even despite the licensing issues.

@Famine can tell what is a unimog from half a mile back and in pitch black darkness, this one should easy for him. I'll give him 10 minutes...

That looks like a match, according to Wikipedia it was designed by Giorgetto Giugiaro so it makes sense to show him one of his own designs.

The last known state of the car before it was withdrawn from an auction is a representation of my unrealistic hopes that a Proton would appear in a GT game

Maybe because was the the mood of the era but generally he desinged very nice cars!!! (for my taste)

 

[Nakano219]

This guy asked an e-Motorsports staff in the HRC, whether GT7 will have the GT500 NSX / Civic, and the staff said they've been on the waiting list for about a year.
They (or does he mean many manufacturers?; unclear in this tweet) want their cars to get a chair in Gran Turismo, so PDI has been really busy.

This is a bit of an old post from a few pages back, but it's been playing around in my mind a bit because I'm very curious what being on the PD waiting list entails.

Waiting list to agree licensing terms? Waiting list to get cars scanned? Waiting list to get the cars models developed post-scan? Waiting list to get the completed models added in-game (okay, that one's way too optimistic)? I feel like I'd believe any of those except the last one.

Now that you bring this up, it makes me curious as to how much is there just to get one car in alone (nevermind say three to six) and then what is it in that process that makes this line rather huge.

Have you tried GT4 Spec II and GT2 Project A-Spec? The latter adds cars that modders built and they usually look as if they were part of the game if not often better while Spec II adds new events and features. Old GTs gettin' some lovin'!
