So, i was watching a motorsport tv show right now, it's called Auto Esporte, it's the major car related show here in Brazil. They talked about Gran Turismo, the Bugatti Vision GT and even the livery Editor!! I'm was really happy about, they spent a good time of the show talking about it, even made a comparison of the NFS's livery editor.

My wife was watching and even made a metion about the wheel and the fact that i don't have one right now(the problem now is that i want to buy, but if i do now, she'll make a big thing about it!).

To add to the potential 360° Scapes, that could be a relatively inexpensive wow factor for VR experience.

Google Street view in gear VR is awesome. These scapes in 360 3D would be amazing.

There are some scapes with slightly different angles, so this may be a hint that all or at least some of them are 360. And they definitely have some kind of 3d element to them.

Another use of these scapes, that I think will be awesome, is the ability to move the cars throw them. You can clearly see that most of them were created with the possibility of allowing a car to move. There's always a road in most of them. Kaz even said in a presentation that move the cars it's the best part of this scapes. It will add so much to the "car porn" side of the game.

They also can be used as an infinite background/wallpaper generator. Since they are very fast to load, as we see during the track loading, the game can randomly create pictures with your cars in garage or your current car, using random positioning and effects.

The possibilities of this tool go well beyond photography.
 
I'm prety sure that the photomode wizzards will make a amazing use of the Scapes.

Some people say that it may took the "satisfaction" of achiving a good shot, it may be true, or not!
I mean... what some guys here do in photomode is insane! Imagine those skilled guys using this new tool will be capable of.
 
This may have been discussed before, but i don't recall seeing those 'L1-R1' menu options before.

'Inventory' and 'open gallery' - wonder what they are...
Not sure about inventory but those paying close attention during Kaz's presentation a few weeks back will remember "Open Gallery" being the place where you share pictures and liveries to others online.

Tellingly, it's the Photomode veterans who are expressing concern over the limitations of Scapes.

They'll surely provide astounding shots, as we've seen already, but most of the work has been taken out of the user's hands. The Photo Travel locations in GT5 and GT6 were used far less than the normal Photomode over in the galleries and competitions here: I wonder if GTS' low track count versus the 1000+ Scapes will change that balance.
 
My apologies if these shots have already been posted.

I came across some Option menus.

"Major innovations in store for Gran Turismo Sport, the likes of which have not been seen since the original

In 1997, Gran Turismo (GT) introduced to the world the ability to realistically recreate automobiles in 3D CG and allow gamers to virtually experience them on their home consoles. Since then, the GT series has recorded a total of 76.74 million copies (*), breaking records and winning awards on the way. On 18 November, the makers of GT will take the title to the next level with the release of Gran Turismo Sport for the PlayStation®4 system, where it will promote the rebirth of motorsports with its partnership with the Fédération Internationale de l’Automobile (FIA).

*As of March 2016"

'Onboard mic position' is still there.
 
Yep.
From memory very little difference from GT6 options.

I guess it's a question of how deep the options go with things like Race HUD configuration and Sound Effects adjustments.
 
Just because a race series doesn't have "FIA" in front of it doesn't mean that it is not related to the FIA. ALL motorsport worldwide is sanctioned by the organisation, so it's all related.

No it's not, where did you get this from? NASCAR isn't sanctioned by the FIA at all, Indy Car at all, the only thing IMSA relates to FIA regulations is GTLM cars and P2. They're only now trying to get a homologated system in place for DPi. No it's not all related, the NHRA is not related to the FIA and so on. There is plenty that the FIA doesn't see over motorsports wise.

Actually, P2 and GTE/GTLM are ACO. Only GTD is FIA related, if only because it more or less is fully GT3 (as is PWC).

That's right, thanks for the correction. I say it's FIA related because of Le Mans Series being ACO/FIA merged for everything that isn't the actual 24h race. Anyways my point is that contrary to @CLowndes888 belief on games having certain series, there is a difference.
 
This dude still replyin :sly: I love how people on the internet can tell you what you mean when you post. Breaking it down on my emoticon usage and all! I mean, you must have taken some time to research my commenting style to have it seemingly all figured out. But nah, you're still wide the mark. So it's probably best we do like I was saying for greatbee's comment "let it go".
I'm not telling you what you mean, not at all. What I'm saying is what it looks like. Odd since you said I'm the one that had context issues. It's obvious how you use it so I'm not sure who you're trying to fool. Research you? No not at all, it wasn't that long ago since our last discussion, no research involved since it was a direct experience in the past from you. Although, it's funny how you mention that I'm studying you, when you where quick to point out my posting style. So it would seem you're the one doing the studying.

Also, while we're on that subject, please don't forget to show me the post that you where referring to, the one where I've been apparently trying to hault people, like you do, so I can start practicing what I preach.

However it's a bit ironic that you keep telling me I should let it go, when you yourself already said you where done replying.
