Gran Turismo 7's Next Update is Coming This Week: Escudo Pikes Peak Returns

[ShiftingGears]

But you can now at least reset the lobby and then do the qualifying in the training session. Actually most series I raced with do it like that as it doesn't punish people who might miss out on qualifying for whatever reason.

Yeah but you can't even time when the qualifying session has concluded because there's no universal lobby time visible anymore

 

[GlamFM]

That's odd. Did you finish all the missions?

Nope. Do I have to finsih the entire string of missions for all the cars to unlock?

Its the standard of the industry to cut content from past games only to add it back in updates.

What a waste of time and resources just to add back in when its suppose be there at the start.

They will add it as legacy features lets not forget it took months for Bf 2042 to even get a scoreboard.

Perfect for some cruising in lobbies with the new ‘32.

Coincidentally this song released the same year the car in the game was modified.

"These last two cars will only be available through the Legends Cars Hagerty Collection, with both entering the showroom on Friday June 24."

You had one job PD, one ****ing job! Finally a reason to get back go this game, but no of course you've to jump through hoops to get a ****ing car!

Dissapointing the new WG events are so low pay you'll never touch them again after finishing them once.

I agree that the event payouts are disappointing, but I strongly disagree about never touching the events again. Yesterday everyone jumped in joy over Watkins Glen getting added, and now you’re saying there’s no reason to revisit the events it offers? Come on, ask yourself why you’re playing this game in the first place. Somehow I doubt your answer would be to farm credits whatever it takes? Every now and then there’s no harm in simply enjoying what a game offers without worrying about its toxic economy system.

I’ve already done the Clubman Cup 700 twice using different cars. More than 200K earned with CR bonus. Not much, but at least I had fun driving the new circuit.

You make a very good point. People here shouldn’t be grateful to be given things that should’ve always been there, especially the f they were in previous games. They should be angry it’s taken so long for them to be added.

Watkins Glen is a nice bit of new content. But the lobby stuff isn’t; The consensus seems to be lobbies were better in GTS and even earlier. Nobody should be thanking PD for improving them a bit today. It’s way overdue.

And don’t get me started on selling (garage management in general really)...

So now when doing liveries we have to type in the search field each time. It no longer saves the search “term” that was used before placing the decal. Kind of a pain if using custom livery items.

Oh and we can no longer change the color of calipers. It lets you select but does not change the actual color. 🫤

Noticed the thing with the brake calipers too. I have to say a little sick went into my mouth as i saw my GR Yaris now has neon yellow calipers instead of the black ones I actually put on lmao🤢

Pretty sure it's a glitch and gonna get sorted soon tho. Hopefully

Are you ok? Just wait 1 day lmao people have interesting problems these days.

I was wondering where the 2 cars were😄

That seems like a "good" bug given that if you touch the search text box you lose the previous search term.

 

[samppa_944]

Btw. Time trials payout in sport mode after they are done if you are fast enough. Hopefully a 1.38.0 is good enough for gold in the Escudo time trial. I reckon I can achieve that with more practice. Current time trial rotation is every 14th day.

3% of #1 world time = gold (2M reward)
5% of #1 world time = silver (1M reward)
10% of #1 world time = bronze (250K reward)

This a huge bummer. Why would they even remove this? Surely it's a bug? At the very least, they could allow us to add the decal to our collection, no?

most definitely a bug one would think. I haven't had the chance to see if there are any workarounds quite yet.

Can you also fully rotate the camera in cockpit view? It's soo annoying how it keeps switching to the rear view when you push down too much.

 

[GTboyz]

Nope. Do I have to finsih the entire string of missions for all the cars to unlock?

Yes. Finish all on gold.

 

[Nowax]

Cockpit view is the same.

No.

@Famine @Touring Mars @other mods.

Do you think it's worth having a "GT7 Time Trial Discussion" thread? I'm wondering if it'll be open to more discussion now that there's a more competitive element added to it.

 

[platocplx]

Very happy we can adjust pedals in the game now.

 

[GlamFM]

Yes. Finish all on gold.

Dude, I´m so ****ing stupid. For some reason I thought you get the car you drive the mission with from every individual mission.
Of course I have to finish the entire thing.

Ha! Thanks for your patience.

 

[ICEYOU3]

Finally being able to rotate the chase cam is the second most surprising part of this update imo. Guess Kaz finally gave in.

 

[tankuroded]

 

[GTboyz]

That's alright I guess. The Escudo drives nicely but I can't hit the gold time in the Time Trial. Doesn't help that I hate Alsace lol

 

[Bosozoku]

Can't imaging the Ford being over 200k. Plenty of old and rarer cars aren't getting very high up.

It was actually in GT Sport beta but got removed, I imagine for some technical reason.

 

[C_Raccoon23]

So online lobbies have been adressed. What will people be whining about now ?

Well since you asked, we still can’t sell our cars and the game is also still woefully lacking in single player content. What’s the point in adding more of these dumb menus if PD can’t even be bothered to include events to go along with them? 3 new races after a month of waiting is just pathetic, quite frankly. Especially, when that’s even less than what we got in the previous update, which already wasn’t very much.

 

[Rash-182]

Ok, if chase view people got 360 rotation then we might as well start whining about the cockpit one. Or am I literally the only one who finds the way it currently is ming boggling, annoying, and totally unnecessary? Just let me view the whole god damn interior.
