They will be back next Friday and will rotate from now every Friday.

still no hud options. been asking for this since gt5

 

[hawkeyez]

This game is in dire need of a track or two. Can’t complain about cars, I don’t care for any of them but you could put any car in this game and somebody will be happy.

Need TUNE SHARING already, CUSTOMIZABLE HUD and I personally would like to see more vintage rim options.

 

[RaY29rus]

Took a break from driving and customizing the Evo to take some pics. PD did not disappoint with this one, it's just perfect.

@RaY29rus : I never knew you were an Evo fan! ()

This car is awesome, so many tuning possibilities, good sound and great handling, only bought one for now, but probably will buy a few to change styles

By meme cars do you mean stuff like the Alpharad?

It's one of them, yes. The Jimny and the ambulance are two others. This is specially serious when the meme cars in question, have no historical relevance whatsoever, which is something that allows a Renault 4, Ford Model T, an old Fiat 500 and the Jeep Willys and others to get away with it.

Meme cars and weird choices, is something they could add, when we have something close to a "completed" car list. Which is not the case.

Here we see people defend those cars, by using past games as an excuse. But they ignore that past games, specially GT4, had way more cars, and had a way more up-to-date car list. In GT7, we have 24 cars from 2020 onwards. GT4, launched in 2005, reaches 24 cars from 2004 onwards, by the time we reach Gillet in the car list (alphabetical order). This number would be a lot bigger if I bothered checking the entire list, and enourmous if I did a similar time frame that I used for GT7 (2020-2024)*. They take way too long to model the cars, to even attempt to emulate the level of variety GT4 had.

*I did a quick check to see how fast GT4 could reach the 24 cars mark, when it came to 2001-2005 cars, and it's done by the time you reach Audi lol.

This game has way less brands than GT6 but it's a license thing sadly. I don't have any hopes for surprise in new cars.
But in my mind should not be hard to create new tournaments or endurance like some asks.

Which yellow is this? Trying to recreate the Solid Yellow from GT5/6 but it's not in the game

 

[RaY29rus]

Dandelion Yellow from Mitsubishi

What’s the tiny green light in the instrument cluster of the Evo? I’m not talking about the headlights.

I’ve been wondering why. Did Mitsubishi reduce the number of paint options for the 2006 model? The 2005 model in GT6 had six in total.

Probably the "tarmac/gravel/snow" mode indicator (or whatever the three options were).

I quite enjoyed driving it in the Time Trail at the Red Bull ring. Fun car

Personally I'd much rather have a wholly unique and different car like a Kei truck than a 15th Silvia or Impreza, for newer modern cars though yeah it's kind of lacking.

It unfortunately doesn't change when you're on snow, haven't tested dirt yet.

Oh, I would be very very surprised if it actually changed. Just saying what that little green light is.

The MR variant of the IX was only available in the white, red, silver, and gray. The GSR variant had more color options. Off the top of my head, all the same as the MR (less the Graphite Gray) and add yellow and Electric Pearl Blue (which was my favorite).

 

[XSquareStickIt]

Anyone knows why the default diff of the Evo IX has initial torque in the rear, but has zeroes on both acceleration and braking sensitivities?

 

[Norbsthebald]

Now that we've got the 4L, we need the 2CV to come back into the series, so we can do this...

Nations cup next season anyone?

I think I prefer Purplish Gray for the Evo IX, so I’m not too worried about losing blue and yellow.

I respectfully disagree...

B-Spec mode will be nice.

Go to livery editor and save the style as is. Check your My Page Gallery and you’ll see the factory colors. They may be added next update. Until then I just chose various colors from Renault, Alpine and Ferrari that are close to those.

I don't understand how to do that.

Where is my page gallery?

Thanks.

Fond memories of an early 1960s Renault R4...

A university mate graduated from an old Citroen Light 15 to a new Renault R4 during our student days. Some of the odd features of the R4 included...

Gearbox in front of the engine
A slight difference in right/left wheelbase (because the transverse torsion bars for the rear suspension couldn't occupy the same space)
Removable rear seat
Seats were fabric stretched across a tubular metal frame, remarkably comfortable, light weight and space efficient
Gear lever protruding from the dashboard
An incredible suspension elasticity which meant it was possible to drive over many obstacles almost without noticing the bump. (Such as the median dividing the road!)

Despite body roll measured in "megadegrees", it had remarkably good adhesion relative to its peers, at least until the Morris 850 hit the scene.

I look forward to some hot lapping in this quirky example of French engineering.

 

[ScottPuss20]

I respectfully disagree...

Thanks a bunch, I'm not sure why they just don't allow us to view the factory colors in the used cars dealership/legends dealership/garage

 

[Lomic]

that would be too simple, they have high standards of bad UI design to maintain !

It makes sense that we can’t see the alternative colors in those dealerships as we can see them in Livery Editor. However, why the colors aren’t available in the update is a mystery.

Not really a mystery. Same old badly designed used cars in GT7. You want a specific color? That's 2 years of waiting. Just like what happened with the Yellow Super Bee and the Gold & Black Special Ed. Trans Am.

And if you want it with 0 miles? Well f-you.

It's all about artificially lengthening the game. In some ways I can't wait for servers to go offline so the dealerships go out of business and all the cars can be migrated to Brand Central where they should've been to begin with.
