Never even got a chance to play it...
In your opinion, maybe. You see, it's simple. You don't like the other GT games don't play them. Cant complain about that surely.So, are we admitting that the last above standard GT game was Gran Turismo 4, released in December 2004?
If so, yea, that's a complete joke. Let me use my math skills: that's approximately 13 years.
Substandard - below the usual, or required standard.
The standard for GT is that the game is meant to be incredibly good.
GT5 and 6 weren't the dumpster fires that some people make them out to be, but they weren't amazing either. They were ok, but they didn't meet the standard. Substandard.
There are 6 mainline games in GT (discounting Sport). 4/6 of them are incredible. That's 66% of all the games that they've released. 2 of them aren't as good to most people. That's 33%.
Explain to me how PD are a joke if their track record clearly states otherwise.
I'll wait.
If that hypothetical is the stick you wish to beat CorvetteConquer with, it's actually pretty damn easy to explain how PD are a joke in such a context since how good games released in 1997, 1999, 2001 and 2004 were is completely irrelevant to PD's supposed image in 2017. Certainly so compared to games released in 2009, 2010 and 2013.
I was a bit skeptical going into it. As a devotee of Assetto Corsa, I felt that I might find it a bit 'simcade-ish'.
Truth is, I did! But, there is much to like, too!
As others have said, the racing is very good. The matching of similar DR/SR worked well. For me, I'm not an overly fast driver, but I like to keep it clean.
The result was that I ended up exactly where I needed to be - and as a result I enjoyed clean, competitive racing.
I found it overall to be fairly forgiving. Much to my surprise, I didn't feel that that undermined the enjoyment.
Will I buy it based on my experience with the beta?
Absolutely!
I've played this beta version offering 3 tracks that i don't even chose, with a very limited number of cars and this during monthes , waking up everyday with the same good feeling that i'll have some very good time driving alone or racing with some others greats players.
A game that can entertain me at this level with so few will for sure be a great game. Gt is Gt , the rest is the rest. I'm a fan ,i know exactly why and i assume it.
Congrats Mr Kaz.
So, this is the end of the beta and we'll wait about 3 months for the final release?
Man, I hope they're having a final beta phase with additional participants!
We're all avid sim racing enthusiasts here but I admire your strength to put the games aside and enjoy the sun when the weather is nice. I've failed on that myself most of the time this year. Unless I go abroad on holiday, then suddenly you realize all these games don't matter much.
Cheers man!
