Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.55 is Now Available: Physics Changes, Four New Cars, and More

[tankuroded]

So odd to see a WTC 600 event at Interlagos. The track already have one Race of Turbo Sportscars event and while obviously all the cars are turbocharged, most of the grid are already present on WTC 600 events. All turbocharged cars that you can see at Interlagos are also present on WTC 600 events, difference being that some slow cars like the Sierra or the Yaris gets replaced by NA cars like the Corvette or Viper.

The issue is that the WTC600 race is Ioniq N's event.

Just realized the Trailer literally references the upcoming Time Trial with the F3500-A


Where did you find that?

Lots of physics changes. Enough to reset all the leaderboards and change all the PP values again.

Not that I have tears in my eyes, but dang, was the Sierra designed by a red head? Show it some love, PD.

Plus, change the line up of stickers to be available for all cars.

@Talon16 (and anyone else who mentioned the open wheel force feedback issue), you might be in luck:

　- Controller behaviour for steering wheels have been updated:
　　・The steering geometry calculation have improved, resulting in better force feedback feeling.
　　・The torque settings for formula cars have been adjusted.

@Pilot625 Every track included in Grid 2019 was also included in Grid Legends 2022 except for one. Can you guess which one and why it was not included?

Most of us would like to see Silverstone in GT7, (more tracks are always welcome, although some people would prefer the resources put to a different track) but at this stage of the game's life cycle that's surely unlikely to happen unless there's a deal made to bundle licensing for the track for GT7 and "GT8" into one price?

Nothing wrong with wanting more though, and if they want to keep player engagement going, they need to get the right balance.

Forza Motorsport has Silverstone......Just Saying.....(I also am by No Means saying Forza Motorsport is better so please do not take it that way I was just stating a fact).

It could be online anytime soon or there is a specific hour?

The servers are always shut down for 2 hours while the update it done.

So give it another 90 minutes

And with that, the thread is up

I wasn't around before the first physics update changed the Circuit Experiences, do I lose my 400% bonuses and are they available to do again for Gold?

I like the Formula car. I’ve driven over 100,000 km with it in GT3. Back then, you could race every event with any car (except for rally races). I don’t understand why that’s no longer possible today. At the very least, they could make it so that you have to race an event 1 to 3 times according to its rules before unlocking it for all cars.

Or if races are restricted by PP, then there should be a system where I earn more money for entering with a car that has fewer than the max PP allowed.

Otherwise, I have to side with the critics. Even after two years, GT7 is not what was promised, and it probably never will be.

My current criticisms:

Too few modern cars

Missing classic tracks (who remembers Red Rock Valley or Seattle?)

No races for Formula cars

NO REAL ENDURANCE RACES (2h+)

Too few championships with too few laps

No car rewards for winning a championship


GT once fulfilled
all of these points!

Your time may be reset, but your gold is yours forever so you won't lose anything

...and yet rFactor 2 delisted that track.

These changes are kinda interesting:

・Grip loss on racing lines on wet surfaces has been reduced.
Maybe the "stock car with RH tires at Tokyo 600" challenge is back!

- Performance for the following cars has been adjusted:
　　・Toyota Aqua S '11
　　・Toyota Prius G '09
Hope it's a buff in performance because the poor Prius can't even be a decent ""race"" car with all upgrades

- We have adjusted the difficulty level of the following race events:
　　・ Red Bull Ring
　　　- Championship World Touring Car 600
　　・ Suzuka Circuit
　　　- Championship World Touring Car 600
　　・ Dragon Trail Seaside
　　　- Championship World Touring Car 600
I wonder what this means. AI getting a buff, some minor changes to their cars and behavior or just new cars being added to the grid?

 

[Rossell2]

Please let the physics be fixed on the Nurb, please. It certainly sounds like they've changed it.

You make it sound like this track would have special physics.

The EF9 had the B16A VTEC engine, And a different front end. ( Although the 89-Upwards EF's had the same front. )

Bonnets are different too. EF9 model - with DOHC VTEC engine - had a raised center portion between the creases. The others had a recessed center. If I remember correctly.

I redid the WTC 600 Championship recently, and the Re Amyia was impossibly fast on RBR. So I assume they have nerfed it a bit.

Might be related to the July update when the same RX-7 started doing 27:05/27:10 at Tokyo, which is a super fast time compared to previously ~27:20 minutes.

 

[BlazeTheCat05]

The RX7 in the WTC600 championship is the only opponent on Sports Softs AFAIK, so on Red Bull Ring it's almost impossible to beat it.

 

[Lomic]

May not be a lot in terms of content, but they did a lot of work on the physics side of the game. Curious to test the effects of it all.

You can kinda sorta get a taste of it in offline mode if you choose I assume.

3. Licence Centre
　- Adjusted the target times for all Licence events, and updated all demonstration replays. Additionally, all rankings boards have been reset.

Damn... hope they won't take back golds done earlier, had a real tough time grind them and I'm just one away from trophy and platinum as a result. S-10 master license. Or maybe they reduced timing needed for gold? That would be lovely as I'm around a second behind.

And hello everyone, just registered here

 

[Lomic]

They never did take back gold despite numerous resets, so don't worry.

Also, welcome here

 

[Vule]

Oh my, so many physics changes, all boards reset... Now we wait for new bugs

 

[Vule]

You make it sound like this track would have special physics.

It was the track that highlighted the bad part of the physics the most.

Thx at Polyphony for turning the fanatec podium ffb into a clown show.
they added the famous and absolut ridiculous & unreal rattle effect if you oversteer the front tyres.
it feels so annoying, i quited the game after 5min of nasty violent rattling effects.

.... assetto evo is a diffrent universe compared to this mess.
