Gran Turismo Sport: General Discussion

[Brend]

Did anyone else get this email from PS, second one I had now about buckling up racing online, and Solo racing, Nations cup, manufacturers cup and coming soon still when you click the link on PS site (no release date just says 2017 still).


It looks a marketing push has started on it. I wonder what the marketing plan is before release?

@calvins48 and I both seen a GT Sport advert before our showings of Fast 8 too, which was pretty fantastic. The marketing swing could be getting underway.

Although, that huge GT Sport section is probably there because first party-wise Sony don't have much in the immediate future.

For a car that has a PDK gearbox, those gear shifts are pretty slow...

 

[AudiMan2011]

Interior sound is very good, but the exterior sounds are a bit overblown compared to what the real one sounds like. Also agree that the shifts sound mega slow for a DCT gearbox with super fast shift speeds.

Is it just me or Polyphony actually started to give us something often enough? We have pretty good April and I think we will start May with more Interlagos screenshots. Hopefully, this trend will continue until the game's release.

 

[Stole_SRB]

Strange results?!
Is anybody have this kind of bug?

 

[Lubeify100]

Hi, I´m new to the GTS Hype Train and I have some Questions:

Will there be online race series (more races in a row) or will there only be single races?
Do we know anything about VR support?
How about the Fanatec Wheels (especially the GT3 V2)? Will it work?
Will the game come out "Soon"?

THX

I'm not sure about the series races.
It has VR support but only in a dedicated "VR Tour" mode
if wheels were made before PS4 support they most likely wont work
I hope it comes out "soon"!

I think that @Jordan liking this comment may give you a hint as to how accurate a prediction this is!

The beta was a godsend. Whoever at PD decided to have it should deserve a raise.

I finally got the gorgeous Mercedes-AMG GT3 this evening. I love that car and the livery, matt grey and yellow, looks absolutely fantastic. The downside currently is that only the boring Northern Isle Speedway is available for Gr.3 / GT3. I need Dragon Trail or ideally Nurburgring Nordschleife to truly test it.

Dont know for you, but i get five times in a row gt3 cars, and only one gr.4 car

I know what you mean. I have 2 Gr.4 and 9 Gr.3 / GT3 cars.

 

[RACECAR]

After who knows how long, Not only do I have all the cars, but I finally reached C on my DR today

Now its time for the journey to B and the drive for 99 (SR that is)

 

[queleuleu]

Can we hope to see some kind of blur in gameplay? The Porsche gameplay looks very good but a little bit of blur could do wonders. (of course with the option to turn it off)

Great car! Would also love it to guide it over the Nordschleife again. Yesterday 160 laps Northern Isle Speedway try to get as close to the top 10 times. Still stuck at 14:214, dizzy and my neck tends to the left. Suggestion to PD: give us the NIS reverse so my neck goes up straight again.

And then the replays with this AMG GT3.

I am stuck at 14.242 with the gorgeous Toyota FT-1 VGT and now cannot get within 0.1 of that with anything.

I had a nightmare at NIS last night. I was in P6 when I was spun out while lapping the person in P17. To make matters worse I then finished behind him in P18. I swore like never before!

For that reason I have not taken part in online NIS races yet. Nords, DragonTrail, BHI are ok but the ovals definitely will make me very frustrated (as always).

14.2xx also very nice time! Hopefully we can see more then only the top10 rankings etc in the final version

 

[WhoosierGirl]

Try using a DS4, it's faster than using a wheel at NIS. I would love to know if your faster with it also.

 

[Nico_Ble99]

Regarding the times at NIS, I'm actually surprised how quick I am in GT Sport. I did a 14,052 with the AMG GT3 and I'm only a couple of hundreds away from the top 10.

might have been asked already, but don't have the time for browsing thru 969 pages.

in the n300 class i'm still stuck with the focus st (i mostly get Gr.3's), is there a way you can manipulate the daily gift car?

If that was a possibility trust that everyone would have a GTR

I'm sure you can find the time to use your shift key in future.

Thx for the tip. I will try with a DS4 controller.

Just - after 300 laps - I improved from 14:224 to 14:176. Insane. 0,05 in 300 laps is not really efficient time spending. A lot of swearing and my 16 yr old son who watched my professional skills had a very enjoyable laughing moment to see his old dad struggling for that final 0,00X improvement. He happy me happy

On the positive side --> added a lot of mileage to the daily counter. Average 700km per day. Is that positive or is that addiction

You can't directly manipulate the gift car, but you can manipulate how many you get through a glitch.

 

[turnupdaheat]

You can't directly manipulate the gift car, but you can manipulate how many you get through a glitch.

Or more accurately, you can manipulate how quickly you get the cars that are available to you. There are 36 in total and after that you will receive duplicates. Also, 19 of the 36 cars are Gr.3 so that's why they're received more often.

Actually there's 21 Gr. 3 cars, 8 Gr. 4 cars and 7 N300 class cars.

Sorry, you're right. I stand corrected.

 

[snowgt]

It's all a matter of perception. I've had the feeling that I had almost exclusively received Gr.3 cars in these first 2 weeks, but out of 15 cars, only 8 are(53%).

That means that the Gr.3 percentage of the remaining cars is actually 62%.

 

[trustjab]

I have every car and the majority of them will never get used if I want to be somewhat competitive with the higher ups. It's a shame really. I don't see how one particular track favors one particular GT3 or the GTR GR.4. It makes no sense to me they can be so much better in their class than any other with a decent setup. The only hope is PD changes some parameters in the cars that aren't used often that makes them more competitive.
