Gran Turismo Sport: General Discussion

[RACECAR]

Sadly, the low-res real Maldonaldo simulator has a lot more action then Formula 1 will.

 

[Cocomoto]

I will buy a wheel if GTS turns out any good, T300RS is gorgeous but it comes with 2 pedals and I would like to have shifter w/clutch, g29 already comes with 3 pedals so that's the one I'm going for. Also addons for g29 are cheaper.

Not to talk on the TM quality conntrol... G29, or wait until GTS realease and see if a new wheel is anounced. But T300 again? Not anymore.

I personally find Formula E for more interesting than F1.

That's not exactly a ringing endorsement

 

[Saidur_Ali]

What the... are they running the game on the lowest graphics settings? I know rFactor 2 isn't the prettiest sim on the market but it looks like there's no shader detail at all, nor is there any anti-aliasing or anisotropic filtering.

Likely a quick track mod they managed to get made in time for this event. Looks reasonable enough.

Does show one thing accurately. The only thing more boring than watching electric car racing is watching virtual electric car racing.

I haven't watched many Formula E races but ones I have seen were action-packed. It's got drivers pushing lap after lap all with a point to prove which can lead to some awesome overtaking moves. F1 recently seems a lot more boring to me, only really watch it due to Hamilton. Hopefully cars in GT SPORT will have decent tyres in general so won't have to "drive like on raw eggs" as Schumi would say.

Didn't see this posted anywhere, GTS beta supposedly delayed to end of the year. Obviously plausible.

We talked about that a few pages back.

Well, Gran Turismo Sport Beta testing early 2016, is still on the website. I better hurry and buy a PS4 before I miss out!

Will you buy your PS4 soon or PD "soon"?

They lost me I needed some positive news by now. I have an annual hobby cycle where my interest goes back and forth between cars and cycling. I'm unlikely to spend on video games outside of the October-February window. The weather is getting good now and that $400 I had set aside for PS4/GTS is needed elsewhere.

GTS could launch tomorrow, blow everyone's expectations and I'd probably pass until fall - just no interest. I'll start jonesing for GT again in 7 months... just in time for the beta? ...

If you're lucky 👍

I'm expecting something at GDC (tomorrow?)

Is GDC really a place to announce or show off brand new games? It's not a public event.

...Hey, we're all grasping at straws here. As far as that's concerned, GDC's as good a place as any.

I was referring to the VR announce (rumoured), and the tangential, wildly unlikely prospect of a GT trailer/some info...

 

[GTPorsche]

My guess is GT Sport only shows up in some form if it's being paired with the VR to show that tech off, but I doubt that actually happens. I feel like Sony would use Driveclub for that purpose instead.

Since Driveclub VR is already well underway to being a completed product this is pretty much a certainty.

I know it's the wrong thread, but I cannot wait to try DC in VR

 

[GTPorsche]

I'd love to have VR, but my lack of budget doesn't.

While I don't expect PD to put on an event to show off GT Sport like they did GT6, and that was more of a focus on their 15th anniversary anyway, I'd expect them to announce more things about GT Sport on their website and blog and the PlayStation Blog. I do not anticipate them being at any event prior to E3 for the purpose of going "HEY LOOK AT ALL THIS GT SPORT STUFF WE'VE GOT TO SHOW OFF TODAY".

GTacademy will begin next month, (live events) here, the interesting thing is on which platform, might the beta be used? can see this happening.

May not mean anything but their latest picture with the booth has a PS3 controller.

Because there's nothing for them to practice on with a PS4....

Source or it didn't happen.

My Signature is enough

If the beta is being used as the platform for GT Academy (and the beta has not yet been released), they might be practising on the PS3. Doesn't necessarily mean it won't be on PS4.

They won't be making it for two consoles.

Yeah that can't work, surely.
Upgraded physics on GTS means a fundamental disparity, so no chance.
Either one or the other, and I'm hoping for PS4...

The platform in the picture is GT6, just some fun for the press. Official details will be finalized by next month.

 

[PzR Slim]

I can't see them making it for two consoles.

Fixed that for you. The way some speak on here is really funny. How are those trees looking

You sure that's a PS3 controller? Abit hard to tell from that distance.

 

[05XR8]

I'm trying to remember, was GT Academy available to all PS3 owners? If a player didn't own Gran Turismo, I think it would be the same with the PS4.

I haven't the slightest idea how many PS4s have been sold through today. Surely GTACADEMY 2016 will be run on the new system.

I'd say that's a DS3 based on the shape of the handles.
