Gran Turismo Sport: General Discussion

[Alpha Cipher]

Can anyone explain to me how the R35 Nismo costs double the price of the base model? Yeah sure, it's got 30hp more, is more track focused and is 30kg lighter but the justification for charging double?? I know IRL they are way more expensive than the base model too....

It has the turbocharger of the Nissan GT3
Got some aero
Tires?

 

[kusi18]

do we actually have a thread in which lap times are compared by GTS and reality?

 

[Balwerk]

PD SHOULD bring carbon as special color, I know they can do it. Carbon pattern on discover nothing be compare with this one, I know PD can bring this one.

How did you do that livery?

More aero, more carbon fibre, better turbo from the their gt3 car others bits and bobs. Your also paying for the research and development they put into developing the car hence the price. The GTS and IRL version cost pretty much the same.

based livery on RCF GT3 2017, based used carbon instead white.

I'm gradually improving at GTS but this guy was just a bit too F.O'Quinn fast...

 

[martinsommer]

The game seems to crash more often recently. Not while racing but when going from qualifying to race matching or from warm-up to race. Sometimes it crashes when exiting menus. Does that happen to you guys as well?

 

[FastFurious77]

I'm saving up for the GT500 cars. The Nismo is a bit of a beast.

 

[Interstellar9]

Does anyone know why the tracks in Tokio are labeled as "evening" when it is 2:55PM/UTC 14:55 and sundown at 4:35PM/UTC 16:35? I noticed that since the launch of GT:S but it wasn't patched.

Haven't seen @Robben in a few days, he didn't get himself banned again, did he?

I can't believe we still haven't got weather yet.

How much time has passed since this game launched? I'm starting to look at PC2 and it's dynamic weather and time, and I have to say they tempt me to buy the game.
Only problem though is how the drivers hand animations look so janky(especially when the driver moves his hand off the steering wheel to upshift or downshift), makes it look like a game made from amateurs.

The hand animations are fine, as long as the driver is smooth then so are they.

I wonder when we will get a look at the Audi e-tron quattro VGT. Surely it will be revealed this week for a Monday 09 April arrival.

 

[05XR8]

I take it, the maintenance for tomorrow is just Mileage Exchange stuff.

Carbon is a pain in the arse to do. Having to line up every square to get an even finish. Seen some that just enlarged carbon. That i cannot unsee.

"Stay tuned for updates" leads me to believe that we will know more before April 9, but you never know. "Stay Tuned" and "Soon™" could do the longest drag race ever

Fingers crossed for a M3 fix.

What's up with the M3?

 

[Alpha Cipher]

Thanks alpha cipher

Saw him playing today. I'm ready for a big block of text that he'll likely post
Good reads though

 

[DatNoiseV12]

Besides the handling issues (If you have time, check @Scaff comparison video between GTS and AC), I hope PD can fix this:

He shouldn't raise/move his arm like that..

Won’t comment on the cockpit view as it doesn’t effect me.

Nothing wrong with the handling of the M3. If you’ve ever driven a BMW of that vintage you’ll know they are extremely loose - a function of the rear suspension design.

I’ve spent quite a bit of time in it over the weekend, and it handles really well IMO.

 

[Nuschel01]

I've driven a lot of E36's, a few E30's and own an E34 by myself and they aren't all that tail happy.
Also the car behaves a lot better on sports tires, idk what happens to it when on slicks but it drives worse on them

E30 has a different rear suspension design vs E36... trailing arms vs Z axle. Trailing arm cars are renown for oversteer on stock suspension.

AFAIC, the M3 in GTS drives perfectly fine on slicks. I did a lot of qualifying laps in it at Tsukuba at the weekend (had a top 10 quali time in Europe), and I've also set one up myself to try and replicate a Touring car (c.300bhp/1,100kg/RH tyres/quick suspension tune) to lap on The 'Ring... it handles brilliantly.

Compact's have the same tho, should've said that

I couldn't find any setup yet that gets at least a little bit rid of the odd oversteer behaviour the car has on turn exits, not even the Alpine or Porsche with their RR layout are as snappy
