To be perfectly fair, while most of DC cars are great, some are quite a miss. Jaguar F Type for example doesn't have that V8 sound like IRL and more. And there is cases where some DLC cars has its sound assets being reused.

The Koenigsegg Agera are actually quite accurate though. So interesting on the Regera. Now back to the GTS topic.
 
I agree with ron. The sounds are just meh in Driveclub, even through the high quality headphones I use set to their custom sound mode. Some cars are decent but none of them really wow me, even that Mercedes GT3 car that everyone praises. I guess I'm just not hearing what everyone else is.

Anyway, news can't come soon enough.
 
You know,considering the PS4 released Nov 2013, it's bat**** crazy to me that one of Sony's number 1 franchises has so little information (Granturismo-PS4).
Honestly,I don't think we'll see this title for at least 2 years yet.

Friggin nuts.

The sounds in Driveclub are good, but the engines sounds are quite poor imo

I've been saying this for a while. Should've been a year one release for Sony, but instead they are just standing by watching everyone else. Better be one hell of a game by the time GT 7 comes out is all I'm saying.
 
Yep,and with PC,and other Sim/Driving titles released on various platforms most people interested in this genera expect VERY high standards.
Like you said....Better be one hell of a game.
 
PS3 out sold the Xbox360 in the end mate so that that part of your argument doesn't hold water.

Wasn't having an argument mate, but anyway. PS3 only caught up to X360 at the start of 2013, but it never overtook it. The most accurate figures out there are that the 360 had sold 84 million by June 2014. Sony announced at the end of 2013 that the PS3 had sold 80 million, and in 2014, there were 3.4 million PS3s shipped, so by the end of 2014, PS3 was still 600,000 short of the mid 2014 numbers achieved by the 360.

So in the end they were very close, but in the first half of that gen, PS3 didn't sell too well, thanks largely to it's massive price tag. Neither of them got close to the Wii though, which, despite sales slowing to a crawl toward the end of last gen, had sold over 101 million units. The PS3 started last gen very poorly. In 2010 when GT5 came out, it was the clear number three console in sales, and yet GT5 and GT5P sold a combined 17 million.

When you put that into the perspective of the current gen, where the PS4 has sold over 36 million units to the X1's 16 million, and the Wii U's 13 million, the current console landscape is looking pretty good for any companies making PS4 exclusives. This was my point, that if GT games could do so well last gen where the PS3 was last in sales, then it should be expected to do much better this gen where the PS4 is dominating sales by double it's nearest competitor.
 
Just because the last games didn't, doesn't mean there won't be one. Not saying there will be, but just saying that it's not impossible.

It isn't impossible. But he was looking for reasons why not, so I gave him one.

Like you said....Better be one hell of a game.

And yet, considering Polyphony's PS3 stagnation (and arguably regression), it is almost a certainty that it won't be when compared to other racing games at time of release.

Not saying the game won't be enjoyable to some, just that it cannot be mind-blowing considering what's already out.
 
A simple livery editor with just choosing colors for 2 or 3 tone bodies from a preset mix (similar to the Formula GT except able to repaint the individual colors). And writing text on the side in a preset fashion similar to how car numbers are would be great IMO. And very easy for PD to implement. It would also minimize "offensive liveries."

Designing some simple dual- or tri-colour preset liveries for the entire car lineup would require a fair amount of time actually. Let's say they stuck with 3 options per car: even on the Premiums in GT6, that's over 1200 designs. At that point, I'd seriously wonder how many man hours it could've taken to just give us a proper livery editor.

If that sort of bare minimum is what you'd consider "great", that's alright. NFS' is better, while FM's is better still – and it's existed in a more or less similar way for almost 9 years at this point.
 
I know this may sound dumb but legit question lol... With all the new cars in GTS, what happened to the six-month design lifecycle for each car? It got me thinking... Did PD actually step up their game? If that's the case, it was about time! :lol:

All what new cars? Last I looked we knew that the game would have at least 11 cars in it, which is hardly "stepping up their game".

By the time GTS will be released it will be nearly 3yrs since GT6. So newer cars and standard to premium should be at 60+ if they do 20cars a year :lol:
 
Well not counting duplicates and alternative liveries didn't GT6 add about 90 unique models? Given the smaller size of GTS I wouldn't be surprised if the new car count is somewhere around that figure again, maybe even less, with others saved for GT7.

Anyway yeah, we're on 8 new cars so far.
 
On the Facebook Messenger:

Me: Hi, it's me again! :) I know, I asked this before - maybe in a different way, but are there some new GT Sport news around the corner? Maybe there are, but you guys haven't released them? Oooor is there something with the reveal of the new Alpine Vision, because Yamauchi-San was at the event today? I'm just too hyped for the game to release! :D
Cheers!

GT: Hi Nico, you might have the right suspicion but unfortunately I can't say anything yet, officially. The good news is that we're getting closer to finalise the details and then we'll open the gates. :-)

Thank you for your patience!
 
I hope there is good customization in GTSport
