Gran Turismo Sport: General Discussion

[Quakebass]

In a wild turn of events this morning I found a bag of old birthday cards from 2012, turns out I have a pile of unused amazon gift cards and I'll be making a preorder this week 👍 👍 👍

Does anyone know what the "Bonus livery sticker pack" entails in the limited edition bonuses? If it's actually exclusive stickers I may go ahead and dish out the extra ~8-9-ish dollars.

Graphics to put on your car in the livery editor? Doesn't sound like a deal to me!

Edit: maintenance ended, nothing happened

It's definitely means nothing.

We are close to the event of Portugal, who knows....

Do we know if the Fittipaldi and Mclaren VGTs will be in the game at release?

There was nothing official like "these cars will be available in GTS at launch", but I think there's 100% chance. Plus Iso Rivolta VGT.

Oh yeah the Iso, forgot about that one. I asked because I really want to try out all the new VGTs we've heard about.

So, when can we expect the "blowout" of official information from PD taking in cosideration we are 2 weeks up to release?

I think we should expect it 2 weeks ago or so.

PD's incompetence never ceases to amaze, so don't expect anything. Information should have started being released when PCARS 2 launched and another flood should have coincided with Forza's upcoming launch (which more than likely is not happening). The way Polyphony and Sony run Gran Turismo is maddening.

Pretty crazy, I was surprised when I realized it is only 2 weeks from release.

This preview mentioned rain being in the final build, from the Sony reps present

Not closely related to GTS, but this might have significant changes to what will happen with Sony's first party titles in the future :



Also, probably Sony being quiet because of this? A change in executive position?

He also mentioned it on his Twitter :

"I then loaded up a Subaru rally car to take out onto one of the numerous dirt circuits."

"But if they aren’t your thing, you can also pile into one of the hundreds and hundreds of cars that have been lovingly recreated, and take them out onto any one of the game’s multitude of circuits for a test run or time trial."


Hmmm.... "Numerous" dirt circuits? I only know of a few.

Also, the number of cars doesn't reach the 2 hundred, so it's misleading to say "hundreds and hundreds".

That's why I'm not sure I can trust him when he says he felt the bumps on the Nordschleife.

Andrew House leaving? bummer. Truly is an end of an era with him, jackie T and Adam Boyes leaving.

this has gotta be the most optimistic preview I've read about GT Sport...

 

[chris4652009]

Anyone gone for the collectors edition (with the die cast model) ?

Me and a lot of other people I guess.

Hundreds and hundreds of cars. Very funny. 👎

I haven't seen any mention of the GT Sport TV ads in the UK...

Any UK peeps seen them? I caught a glimpse of a few seconds of one in an English pub here. Looked like new footage to me.

Not yet, lots of Forza TV coverage though

 

[TheNuvolari]

GTS has TV ads? Wow, that's great! Is the ad good?
GT6 had TV ads if I'm not mistaken, even here in my country. There were RedBull X2014s racing at Brands Hatch. And it was in hungarian. Pretty surprising for a last-gen game.

Does anyone know if the UAE falls under the EU PSN?

If progress will carry through -- I'll probably use my UAE account. Kind of a stupid question, but if I used my US account will I be able to play with non US players?

Thanks buddy. Gonna pre-load with the US account and play with the other then. Can't wait.

sweet!

I'll wake up early that day to take my motorcycle license test and then I'll have some fun with GTS (hopefully they open the demo to the people who were already playing the beta).

 

[35mm]

I won't be buying GT Sport for now, but I'll want to try this.

Should I delete the Beta? It's still sitting on my PS4 and the extra disc space would come in handy for this demo...

Good luck with your bike test buddy, two wheeled life is awesome

There's a GT Sport ad on at cinema's now.

Don't know if it's a different cut.
