That's clearly a Bentley paintscheme on a Peugeot 908. :lol:

Here, a bit of spot the differences, should be obvious and easy.

Just tried GTS for the first time tonight. Did the first sets of driving challenges up to the second prize car.

I have no idea about how the RNG system in this game works, but I assume I'm pretty lucky that my second prize car was the Miura, right?

Yeah, you’re one lucky ****** :lol:

I have to say my luck has never landed me an expensive prize car, keep hammering those challenges for the prize cars before buying anything!

Will do, although admittedly having played GT4 recently I got impatient with licence tests and jumped into Sunday Cup for the time being. Enjoying thrashing the Evo X so far.

Also, the loose chase cam option makes a huge difference to the feeling of the game so I’m actually enjoying it a lot more than I expected.
 
I am beginning to think PD is passive-aggressive against hosts. They want to discourage our rooms in favor of their rooms.

By the time I starting hosting my nightly room in May 2011, GT5 had everything I could have wanted. The PP system, custom tracks that I could change at will within the room, a race timer, and even shuffle racing with random cars (which I never used).

GT5 turned into GT6 and they took away shuffle racing. No biggie for me, but a lot of people loved hosting and racing in shuffle races.

Also in GT6, they greatly improved custom tracks, and the sharing of custom tracks became much easier, you no longer had to be a person's friend to copy their shared custom tracks. But they took away the host's ability to change to a custom track within the room. I very rarely used them, maybe after the room crashed and I had to start a new one. If they had freely allowed the use of custom within rooms, they could have been huge.

Now comes Sport, and restrictions for the host are the greatest they have ever been. We are forced into running rooms divided into categories. Now, I know we can do HP and weight rooms. That is how I started, but PP rooms Made for much closer, fun racing.

Today's update shows me that they don't give a crap about hosts. In fact I believe they are trying discourage people from hosting. Running a room full of people without a race timer is very frustrating. It is like herding cats. Add to that, I have no idea, if people are in the garage, or tuning or what they are doing, do they see when I type 'starting'?

It just infuriates me That they have not added a room timer. What is this whole TAG Hauer affiliation about?

I think they want to discourage hosting, because they want us to do their races. Isn't it funny that their races, ARE ON A TIMER!
 
The gran-turismo.com community section now shows "sporting career" stats. Lots of interesting stats actually like average qualifying position and average gained / lost positions from starting position. Cool!

Pretty cool indeed. They have a lot more data than the unofficial apps could access so far I think. We can even see the used car on the laprecords tab. That was not possible previously. laps led are also a nice statistic.
 
tried the laferrari again on le mans, 404km/h with RSS tires this time (399 was SH), not even with the veyron i could get to 400

I went into the barrier at 400kmh in LaFerrari just after the second chicane (using no chicane version). I am thinking it would have obliterated the car in real life. It was quite a shock even in the sim!!

Somebody may have already mentioned this but the thumbnail of the cars in my garage has went missing after the update. Slowly getting them back now.
 
I switched the music into transmission mode and heard some nice song is there a tracklist from transmission mode ? are there new songs or all of them are from GT6 and past games ?
 
My biggest gripe currently is the lack of an FOV adjustment or interior camera adjustment for specific vehicles. The Mustang interior is way too close to the point where I can't even see my mirrors.


They added camera controls for the interior and exterior cameras under the advanced options in-game.
 
I'm not sure whether this is right thread, but I got some informations from a Twitter user on Wednesday.



大分 (おおいた / Oh-ita) and 青森 (あおもり / Aomori) both are Japanese prefectures.
温泉 (おんせん / Onsen) means hot springs.


He found these data in the GT website.

Although omitted here, he also found some data about "Star Players."

Please tell me if there's the appropriate thread to write this, or this was already mentioned by someone.

Oof, my luck came back and bit me this time. I had some decent cars from the licence tests and mission challenges, but things started to fall apart in circuit experience. On one of the trials I won the Peugeot 208 which I had already bought myself for GT League. I thought "meh a double, not a problem, I'll just tell the one I bought", and continued onto the next circuit, where I won another 208. The odds of getting it twice in a row must be pretty low, right?
