There will be custom races mode.

We still do not know what that does.

Seasonal events are nothing more than glorified arcade races with bigger prizes. Not sure how that's such a great attraction especially if they aren't set up with combinations you enjoy and/or with driving aids forced on or even left optional so you can't be competitive without them.

They can do different difficulty levels and increase the pay out accordingly. The up side over arcade races is the leaderboard.

That wouldn't cut it for me.
I want some kind of career mode with progression.

That's a fair point. But seeing as this won't happen, it's not a bad alternative.

I would have agreed with you a year ago but PCARS and DiRT Rally changed my mind about what I want out of offline racing. Both games have careers with progression but also have every car unlocked from the get-go. This made me never touch the career in either, as I found creating my own race much more liberating.
 
So we are still not sure if there will be some type of career mode?
We know exactly what will be in the game. No more the zero to hero career mode with many events like the classic STI vs EVO, championships... Instead a big tutorial to learn the basic of racing and the core of GTSport will be online. It's a take it or leave it and I guess many GT fans won't buy because of all the missing aspects.
 
Yeah but I'm pretty sure it will be more interesting than seasonnal event, because it will propose us to choice several rules.
Until we see it in use you can't claim it can do that and it will be useless unless there is much faster AI available.

This really makes me rethink my Gamestop preorder! I do slim to no online racing and i already know how to race so..... ugh! :( Honestly it sounds a bit lazy on pd's side!

It was difficult for me to interact with other people online. That's why I usually joined cruise and time trial lobbies. I see GTS making joining races a lot more simple. Why do you not prefer to race against other people? I have to say I wasn't one for competitive racing, but I've grown into it this past year.

It's not that i don't enjoy racing other people, i do i i just do it on iracing. It's the only place i have ever found proper racing online. I usually end up getting upset otherwise. Maybe things have gotten better since i last tried. I do enjoy the career progression of these other games like gt, forza and such and will be sorely missed here! It's like me building a seven second race car chassis and installing a 4 cylinder!

That happens a lot. I'm hopeful GT Sport's Sport Mode will help sort that out. I'm looking forward to it, actually. It won't be perfect, but matchmaking in a GT game? Oh come on. Gran Turismo driving and Halo 3 matchmaking is what I'm picturing. More seamless than previous GT games because of the matchmaking type of features Sport Mode will include.
 
Again. UNTIL we KNOW what CAN be done NOBODY knows what CAN be DONE. The END. & again, AI. No comment to make on that one?
@Tired Tyres Point it out to @Zlork. Don't be condescending. Do you read. I read. They read. We all read. Where are your manners.

I'm frustrated too (I can't get my thang tuh werk! Actually, I've just seen my broken Glacier White Destiny PS4 from '14. I'm a little frageelay, at the moment). But chill out.

Don't tell me what to do mate. I am chilled. Don't read unchilled in my words. That's what they are. Words. @Zlork is a none stop GTS is great dude. I don't mind that but when he start asserting certain things will be good when he doesn't, in fact, know that I tend to want to pick him up on it.

Sorry to hear about the Glacier White PS4. I suppose it won't help if I tell you I bought a Glacier White PS4 Pro today will it? :nervous:

Then just stop reading from the people that anoy you - it won't be the end of the world. It's just one forum, so what if you don't get to post the last post, and the most righteous one??? Ha:indiff:

And, anyone, just don't be the one no one want's to read from. How nice is it to do that glacier rub-in to jakhole? Maybe feels nice now, but...
 
They can do different difficulty levels and increase the pay out accordingly. The up side over arcade races is the leaderboard.
Leaderboards existed in previous games as well. So it is essentially arcade races with higher payouts and leaderboard's with the caveat that you are faced with limited combinations and limited options to race with. Somehow I doubt that is a good substitute for a deep offline career.

You're real chilled dude. Taking a dig. That's your style? That's chill? I'd hate to be on your team.

Edit -
Let me break it down. It's like your making fun of someone for not having a luxury item. Eww. Heather? Is that you? And you're mocking (not joking WITH) someone who was trying to be an intermediary seeing as how you got all snarky after a rough day of waxing. Go find a frozen lamp post to stick your cheeks around. It's a kind suggestion.

Damn, I realize now why I steer clear of this matey.

I'm not so bothered about the AI level, because it's bad pretty much everywhere and I prefer RI. Also the apparent lack of offline career (no-one actually knows this yet) doesn't unduly concern me either.

I like online racing, and it seems like it's well done in GTS, plus the visuals are awesome and the sound is improved. It isn't going to be perfect by any stretch, but what it seems to offer is totally worth $60 to me.

Congrats on your purchase mate. If that's the Destiny bundle, then I'd test it ASAP as some PS4 Pros have issues with crashing in certain modes (1080p mode IIRC). There is a thread on GAF which I'll link to you tomorrow (need to sleep now). Just a heads up because if you experience this, you should replace it.
