It can, but only for a certain percent of people.
Other games, particularly sims, even those with tiny, tiny budgets, don't require you to adapt to the game, they provide the tools for you to adapt the game to you. GT is far, far behind in this regard. I'd even go so far as to say that a properly adjustable cockpit view is an absolute must for any game to call itself a proper racing simulator.
To be honest, I don't see how seat adjustment and whatnot alone would make a game qualified to be a "proper racing simulator".
That's a hefty request.A message to PD:
Add Le Man's, Spa-Francochamps, Silverstone, Nurburgring GP and 24 hr circuit, Fuji, Suzuka, Motegi, Autopoils, add dynamic time, weather.
Add the classic nostalgia tracks from the PS2 Era (complex string, SSR11,) add some more orginals like Tokyo R246, Grand Valley Speedway mid filed and more. I would like to see more modern LMP'S like the Audi'S from 2012 to 2016 so 4 new audi'S add the ts040 and the ts040 and add the Nissan GTR LM for fun.
Just wondering if that then makes AC on console not a proper racing simulator? It has FOV only as a 50-60 degree slider, no seat movement at all as far as I know.
I don't think anyone said that seat adjustment alone makes a game a proper simulator. If someone did, you could pose the question to them instead.
I'd have to say no then, as I think proper FOV adjustment is a must in any true simulator.
I don't want all those similar looking LMP1 cars. They're a pain to drive too. I'd rather get the different LMP2 chassis. Weight and power is the same for all of them so it's just your stylistic preferences at play.A message to PD:

Not really true.
I can see you getting PS4 Fanatec high-end steering wheel when out to go with your pedals and then end up getting PS4 for GT SPORT to play Senna events.
In Forza, many complain that you seem to drive from the backseats.
Woah... So you're a member of the sim racing elite?! It's just a game, not the plague. Try it at a shop, if you don't like it : case closed.
I don't think i'll spend a 1000 bucks on a console and compatible wheel setup i don't need, just for a game that has Senna on the box.
I've heard the; 'there's still time they could turn it all around before release', argument many times before. PD didn't bother with it in either GT5 nor 6, so i guess it will be the same again for GTS. Pretty graphics galore and all the rest of their features basically stuck in the year 1999.Still plenty of time for them to bring game up a few more levels, imagine if they do the same as they did for graphics for AI and sound in time for release.
Doesn't it say 'the real driving simulator' on the cover?
Oh, memories. I did the same thing a few years back [1] [2]. While I did go to the ''extremes'' with the FoV settings, it gave me a sense of speed that was sorely lacking before. Best hidden feature in GT5. There was no difference in framerate whatsoever and made the game far more enjoybale.
I disagree... Gt is not the best simulator, but there are some features like online better on GT than in other games. (No private lobbies in AC for PS4I don't think i'll spend a 1000 bucks on a console and compatible wheel setup i don't need, just for a game that has Senna on the box.

Wheel can be used on other games too, might be also direct drive. Surely will be tempting to go along with your pedals.I don't think i'll spend a 1000 bucks on a console and compatible wheel setup i don't need, just for a game that has Senna on the box.

Yes, we're all exactly the same. All of us. Every one.
Nothing like a visual demonstration to drive the point home:tup:. The "secret menu" was a bit of a revelation and allowed for many options in GT that were part of the included game code but just were not activated by PD for some reason. It was that ability to adjust the FOV that first turned me on to cockpit view driving after running with hood cam since day 1. The differences are dramatic enough that I made a thread about F.O.V. in the Project Cars Forum last year that included several custom pics and a video from EmptyBox.
GT does have the best online interface, no doubt about that. It's the connection and stability issues that hold it back.I disagree... Gt is not the best simulator, but there are some features like online better on GT than in other games. (No private lobbies in AC for PS4
It's been going in the right direction for years, unfortunately, outside of graphics and a couple of things unrelated to gameplay, we never seem to get there. eSports, at it's heart, is just another way to race. It doesn't make any difference to the people who want to race offline, which, as far as I can tell, is the vast majority of the fanbase.
That's also a worthy argument
Physics yes (as reported by people who played it), but it remains to be seen if the cars are also realistically replicated as that has been a problem with GT so far (MR's for example if i remember right). Sounds are a bit better compared to before as that couldn't get much worse, but as of now it's still lacking a lot compared to today's standards. Like I said they sound pretty much as the same samples, but made a bit bassier overall. The 1999 quote refers to offline gameplay, race structure, sounds, AI, damage model and crash physics. For the E sports we'll have to see how their ranking and penalty system works and if online is stable at least, that will be essential.
I would expect a bundle to consist of a "GT Sport Edition" PS4 Pro and maybe a code for in-game credits or something.I guess there are so far no news about what kind of PS4 bundles could be released with GTS?
Would love to see a bundle including the PS4 Pro, PSVR and GTS. But I think that would be too expensive
This has yet to be confirmed. I believe it was @Johnnypenso who said (and I agree) most likely the only Senna content is in the musem feature. Maybe we get some actual Senna content later, but I doubt it. What use will those vehicles be to us if we don't get more "Senna related content"? It kinda breaks the immersion to use the Senna McLaren against Gr1 carsI don't think i'll spend a 1000 bucks on a console and compatible wheel setup i don't need, just for a game that has Senna on the box.
