Grand Valley Returns to Gran Turismo 7

[regnar]

Personally the change to Grand Valley is so far removed, really isn't the original track any more. With Trial Mountain & Deep Forest they put new life into them, but didn't take it too far. At this point I hope they don't bring back anymore originals and focus on new originals or real world tracks.

Some absolutely adorable signs i came across

There was really no reason for PD to change anything about Grand Valley beyond upgrading the graphics to PS5 level, the layout changes are just hideous

 

[djs]

I find the new layout extraordinary. This is going to be a future classic!

Doge in GT7 confirmed.

The number plates read “GT71223”. Hmm

Well, that was a pretty easy one to figure out. If you know your GT history, those last four numbers should be very familiar to you.

Oh, for sure. I got it, just being silly.

Sophy, blink once if you're being abused...

Gameplay of the new Grand Valley

 

[The359]

There are cattle grazing the infield on the other side of the bridge after Turn 1, and the beaches are full of seals sunning themselves.

I saw a giant bird glide over me when I watched my replay, I think it might have been a California condor.

Turn 2 in South Reverse is horrendous, completely blind because PD wants to show the dynamic light change.

So no rain? Day night cicle?

I think it looks lovely and can’t wait to have a go on it. Slightly altered scenery? I don’t get why that’s an issue. Do people just want it ported directly from GT4?

Lots of, off track SUVs. Cayenne, SRT Cherokee, Mercedes X-Class Ute, Audi A7, Normal F-150.

Ferrari f12 on a tow truck, yellow R8 Spyder, new Nissan Leaf, New Beetle, older C-Class Coupe., what looks like a White Holden Commodore/Chevy SS. Edit: just a generic sedan.​

Sunset looks especially lovely with the sun trailing across the water.

Well, South is two-thirds the length of East, so...

No.

Track is considerably longer than 2km, maybe telling commenters they are blatantly wrong instead of acknowledging pd could be wasn't the best call? Especially when anyone with eyes can see where the tracks joined

Look on the bright side. They'll end up giving us one million credits and free access to all the invites.....

I just tested it, and I was positively surprised by the new changes, such as elevation changes, track width and layout changes. At first, they looked too narrow to me in the photos.

But negatively, I didn't like the circuit's arcade appeal. I think it would be possible to adhere to the same location, but adding security elements to improvised tracks, mixing road with racetracks elements, like Trial Mountain.

In the end, the balance is positive.

Looking forward to seeing what they do with the other classic circuits. Stage Route 5 and 11 have iconic tracks, so it would be interesting to see their new versions.

That’s not Grand Valley! 😞

 

[Lion-Face]

The new revamped Grand Valley is incredible! I didn't like the changes to deep forest, mostly because they took away one of the best corners of the track. Here though, they improved just about everything about Grand Valley! (haven't tried the short version yet)

 

[Tired Tyres]

I think they should stick to real world race tracks from now on.

Metric units on a US track?! Game is unplayable!

This looks t like more or less a new track to me, rather than a reinterpreted Grand Valley. But I don't mind, it looks great. I'd very much welcome 1:1 recreations of classic tracks, but I don't mind getting new tracks to discover in any case.
