And hey, allot can change before autum, think that the beta is holding back. You see it when a update comes the game is again a bit nicer and that is not because they made that in that short time, the role it in time all out untill the beta ends and then we get the full game and everybody forget the painfull way to it because of the communication etc

I promise :lol:

Yes, that's why i'm asking for!
GT Sport has better chance to introduce more special content than in the past (GT6,GT5)
 
I think this is simply your opinion and not based on facts, as it stands now the game is quiet an improvement from GT6 but fails to go on par with other competition that exists.
Sure the beta is still a WIP and it is true the game is better in sound, graphics and physics (three of their main focuses) However they seem to prioterize graphics over both of the other two and I could give two reasons why.

Number 1: While the sounds have improved over time it still lacks: character, life, a much higher fidelity of the ambient sound/doppler effect/reverb, a proper intake sound and a propper transmission whine (which in GT sport is literally just a pitch going up or down depending on your acceleration) Take a look at the competition and you can see what I mean.

Number 2: Physics, oh yes the physics which is constantly being tweaked, but as far as I can tell it is still labeled as arcadey due to its focus on casual audience. Not so much of an expert here but I believe you can head over the the physics discussion thread and @Scaff could give you a much better explanation than I could.

P.S.
I do not own a Playstation 4 but planning on getting one when I can because I love the GT series since GT1.

I don't disagree with anything you said , what makes you think i do?

Just because i don't bash the game every 5 seconds , doesn't mean i'm not aware of it's shortcomings.

So six real world tracks for a racing game sanctioned by the FIA. That really is pretty pathetic. PCars 2 is going to put it to shame. I'm praying that they are going to add more via DLC.

Amusing cause I can say the same aswell just because I bash every 5 seconds, doesn't mean that I hate the game :rolleyes:.

I also did not state that you disagree with the games shortcomings I simply quoted on your indirect response/sarcasm to PzR Slim as it seemed to annoy you that he gave his opinion on the game.

To his credit, @PzR Slim comes across as more negative than he actually is, I'd wager. It's the curious frustration that Gran Turismo instils in people :)

The full track list revealed "five" months before the launch? Something strange happens here...

Your list seems reasonably fair.
Personally, I still have question marks over Interlagos and Le Mans, but that's just me. ;)

I do question your snow/ice track inclusion though.
The new website shows Fishermans Ranch as a snow track.
It seems reasonable that Sardegna could do the same thing.
So including a whole new track (just for snow) on that list seems uneccessary to me.

Maybe a little true :)

I've grown up with GT. It'll always hold a special place for me. However, I call a spade a spade and since GT5 I haven't liked a lot of what I see. It's definitely frustrating but I also think it's totally negligent on PDi's part. They have damaged their legacy and with some of the things I see in GTS they continue to do so. So while I'm a big fan of the series I'll continue to bitch and moan about what I don't like.

Your last sentence is spot on ;)

Respect :cheers:

It's easier for me because I took a bit of a gaming break for 5 & 6 - so my memories of GT are mostly rosy and essentially finished on an amazing high in the guise of 5 Prologue.

They have mentioned the whole 'tearing it up and starting again' thing haven't they? Maybe that will win you over!
 
Here is my thought :
Kaz said only 140 cars and 15 tracks with 27 layouts. Possibly what he said referred to the current state of game build with amount of cars and tracks that already been made and ready to play until E3 (even they don't show it, maybe it is ready in another build somewhere in their office). The next gaming convention as we know is Gamescom in August, and go by history PD also released new trailer with GT PSP, GT5 and GT6. So it might be we going to have another updates on track and car count, as evidence to what happened in E3 there are few cars and new track secretly added by PD. Probably it is going to be the same, but this is all just my prediction.

I've seen it just now (here if others missed it too) and yes in that case there could be another track in place of that "snow/ice track". I also have some doubts about Le Mans but that seemed like a strong hint to me.
 
Alright for some people who not satisfied with what we have seen in E3 I think it is time for sending more messages and post to beta forum once again with suggestions and request for what features and stuff we want imo. Hopefully it is effective as what have been implemented through closed beta stage. And hopefully it work as it should.

I'm pretty sure nobody as of the beta starting has been able to post in PD's own beta forums, I certainly wasn't able to and I gave up on the beta after about 2 weeks of just doing the daily marathon, Nothing in the beta was enough to keep me interested.

I just thought possible solutions for those who not satisfied they can go to beta forum to complain and give suggestions. I remember some of us here did posting to beta forum about some feature, then it was implemented in the latest update by surprise. I also aware that the beta forum most of the time refused to work, but sometimes there is someone who lucky enough to enter the forum in certain occasions.
