I'm not sure if it means it starts today (13th), or if by "launched" they just mean 'announced'.
I think just 'announced' unless other countries have already started.

I know Australian events won't begin until August.


No, no demo download on PS4.
Live events only.

Yeah my use of the word starts is probably wrong, apologies.
 
The next event we could see news from is the FIA Sport Conference which starts on Tuesday.

http://www.fia.com/2016-fia-sport-conference

The FIA partnership was initially announced at this same event two years ago.

I wouldn't expect anything new from Pikes Peak or Goodwood given that neither venue are likely to be included in the game.

Looks very likely we will indeed see something at the event, as @MarchingSaint pointed out in his status the GT Snapchat fella is there.
 
If there'll be only live events now for those countrys, and if in Brazil GT Academy only happes after launch using the game and been able to paricipate from my house, then i'm ok with that!!:lol:👍

Haven't butted in with the news because not-completely-relevant.
Moreover, on the FIA programme there's nothing related to GT nor simulation in general. I really wonder if this move was made to keep the GTsnapchat relevant or not.
 
@7HO My friend, your 10,000 word posts are making my monitor ache :)
I don't make the rules, multi posts are not allowed so if I am replying to multiple people at once they must all be included in one long post.

However my massive post in the other thread is probably the longest single post I have ever written.

I just wish I could work out how to make money from writing online because as you can see it is something that I enjoy very much.

I dunno, I can't see the guy flying to Italy just to keep up activity on Snapchat. He must be planning to share something GT related, however vague.

Like I said in the other post I am not sure how it could be made clearer but I'll try.

Question: What is the 7th full release title in the Gran Turismo series?

Answer: GTS

Question: Is GTS a Prologue?

Answer: No, not according to Kaz unless he is lying.

Question: Is Gran Turismo Sport a spin off?

Answer: No, not according to Kaz unless he is lying.

Question: If PD released a numbered title after GTS what position in the series would the next title be?

Answer: It would be the 8th full release title.

Question: Can a full release title be released as GT7 after GTS?

Answer: No, not logically. The next title will be the 8th full release title and if it is called GT7 that implies that either GTS is an in between title like a Prologue or that GTS is a spin off or a new branch running alongside the numbered series and we have been told that GTS is niether a spin off or a Prologue. More so if they released GT7 as a title that includes both the Sport part of the game and more in game features then that would confirm in peoples minds that GTS was actually a Prologue or an in between game and not a fully featured title as Kaz has claimed. So to call the next title GT7 would logically make what Kaz has already said a lie. Therefore if PD released a title called GT7 it would be very bad for the company now that they have said what they have said and logically if the next title was to return to a number it should only be called GT8 to avoid a negative market reaction.


If it is true that the PS4 does not support triple, me.


Of course otherwise I wouldn't have bothered mentioning it.


You start off unsure but in your second sentence you state it so definitively. You will need to show me a source that says this is possible, I know people have used PC's and similar to display their PS4 on their PC triple display but I'm looking for a official source that says you can connect multi displays to a PS4. I can't find anything that says you can't anymore but I remember reading years ago that you couldn't and it was a main reason for me not wanting one at the time.


Perhaps you misunderstood what I was saying. The NEO is over 4 Tflops which is more than enough to support triple monitors. At this spec there would be no need for more than one NEO to run triple monitors. Therefore if there is no need to own more than one NEO to support triples on NEO it would not make sense to support multi displays using 3 standard PS4's as no one would consider it due to the much larger price and it would require additional work to support.



No I'm not, you are. It may be having trouble reaching 60fps on a 1.84 Tflop PS4 but the 4.19 Tflop NEO will have no trouble running at 144fps. More so you don't seem to understand Adaptive Sync. Freesync only works below the displays refresh rate and actually only works within a defined range set by the manufacturer of the display so to use Freesync you must run at lower than 144 fps on a 144hz display, lower than 120fps on a 120hzs display and lower than 60 fps on a 60hz display. However most adaptive sync monitors report better input lag times running without adaptive sync at much higher frame rates but they actually can compete with input lag times of no adaptive sync gaming monitors running lower frame rates with adaptive sync on and many competitive gamers love being able to run with adaptive sync at around 120-140fps for that buttery smooth no tear gameplay combined with the benifit of ultra low input lag.

GTS is aimed at 60fps 1080p gaming on the PS4 and it must also support PSVR on the PS4 so you do not need the NEO for PSVR support. The NEO will support higher resolutions than 1080p and beyond that we don't really know much except that the hardware at 4.19 Tflops is more than capable of supporting 1440p resolution or triples or even a 144hz display. For comparison at 4.19 Tflops this places it halfway between a GTX970 and GTX980 in performance so yes more than capable of all the things I mentioned.



I never meant that it did, I know you need 3 PS3's and 3 copies of the game but you should read my reply to him above in this post.



I was obviously talking about the mention in the video so yes what Kaz said to John. And call it a misinterpretation if you want but I've detailed above why I believe that because any other way would be ridiculous considering the NEO has the performance potential to support triples on its own.


Do you have any idea what is rumors? Is there any substantial evidence that PS4 neo definitely wont go any higher than 4.14tflops? It just a rumored spec. however project scorpio 6 tflops is a official statement.

Why dont you show me how a ps4 can do triple screen with one console as you said >> "I know people have used PC's and similar to display their PS4 on their PC triple display".I would loved to see how the person you know can make one ps4 display on triple screen.

Even if ps4 neo rumored spec is more than enough to support triple screen, do you think sony would put 3 hdmi output ports behind a game console ? ( unless its a Ps4 NEO Gran Turismo Triple Screen Kaz Limited Edition). or by the time PS4 neo is out every game on the market is designed to run triple screen then only they would put 3 hdmi ports behind a game console.

No Ones know if GTS on ps4 would be running full PS VR support until any gameplay from official source or till PS VR and GTS came out. Speculations are ok but dont go too wild with it.

Gran Turismo 6.




But even ignoring that:

Like... wow.

PD and Sony can, and will, call the next Gran Turismo title whatever the hell they want. Just because some guy on the internet thinks he sussed out some line of "logic" regarding the true meaning of what prerelease marketing represents for a certain game doesn't mean Sony are going to sit around in fear that calling the theoretical game after this one the wrong thing will cause this to happen:

@Tired Tyres to be honest mate I value his opinion over your. Send me your CV with references and I will look over what credentials you have.
Up until then in my opinion he ( and Ben Collins and young Hamilton) are more qualified then you are on what constitutes a faithful attempt at simulating

@Johnnypenso Great spot on the Porsche thing. People were saying Kunos somehow circumvented the EA thing because they're like 'mates' with Porsche or something, but thankfully this may prove that incorrect. Porsche DLC for GTS is my guess...
It was actually @mister dog that made the spot:tup:👍

As long as no money is changing hands...
 
The only way to find out is to buy the final product when it comes out. Is that the actual game play of GT7? if it is, it's looking quiet good still want weather effects in it though. I think they could do it, just can't be bothered I suppose.

It's not that simple , sacrifices had to be made , they can't afford to have a unstable framerate because of the VR support , and overall quality of the graphics.
 
I suppose they've got a lot to prove on the new system. I'm looking forward to it but then again I don't want the same old tracks to be in the final product you know like pointless courses like the Rome course would like to see the big oval test track back in.

Drivers who are hired by games companies are not doing anything other than saying what the developer wants them to say. End of. You might still want to value their opinion of course, that's up to you. I don't buy into their sales pitch any more that I buy into anyone else's.
