GT Sport Update 1.22 Discussion Thread

[BasherB59]

As for any potential event updates, "Real" Multi-class racing please. It's like, right there!

Just divide the classes evenly. With 16 choices, a player could select up to16 different classes for a race. Surprised Gr. X isn't in there, but I'm thinking this might have been an initial idea PD had.

Maybe that's why they need a much longer track in GT Sport.

I think there are 30 cars on Maggiore, in the GR.3.RSR Mission race.

Hope this is in the July Update

Maybe it has something to do with the Tour de France, like maybe its location is near one of the stages or the track is part of one of the stages? Probably a long shot, but PD might think it's cute.

The game certainly needs a modern single seater of some sorts that’s for sure! I’ll happily take a Formula GT! But the SF19 is

I surely hope this is not the case lmao

could it be the Millau viaduct? Bridge matches well, but I don't think there's a lake there

 

[J.D]

The first teaser was great i wonder will we get something more than a new track and cars changing weather (or at least wet tracks) maybe ? It's time for some important and NEW feature !

looks nothing like it!!

The bridge in the teaser is a suspension bridge, the Millau Viaduct is cable stayed.

Didn't Kaz say this would never happen in GTSport?? along with dynamic TOD?

Oh come now. Other than its a totally different bridge and is absolutely nowhere near a lake or castle, he was pretty much bang on!

pont de Puget-Théniers (FRANCE)

pont de Puget-Théniers (FRANCE)

I'm sure it is, but the relevance of it to this thread escapes me.

 

[Milouse]

The bridge is of "pont à haubans" type, and i didn't find anything matching the picture in Provence, nor France. My bill is on "Fictional Track", unless the bridge is just part of a distant scenery teaser for the Paul Ricard track. Paul Ricard - which i found terrible for F1 - would make sense in GT Sport, with it's multiple layout. PD would have just have delivered a bit late...
I wouldn't see the point of wasting resources to match a real location that nobody would identify anyway.
There's a special feel in the air in Provence that someone who knows it would certainly want to catch in a game, but it has to do with the scenery, not track.

The mount is not Mont Ventoux: i recently spent two summers at its feet, there's no such place as seen on the trailer.

I used to be obsessed with crossing bridges, but I got over it.

Dad? Is that you?

I used to be obsessed with crossing bridges, but I got over it.

In all seriousness, my wife is terrified by the idea of crossing high bridges. I once saw her start crying while driving towards a big one.
This one, exactly:

Bad boy.

No. I am your father.

They have not forced anyone, they simply shut down the servers of a disused platform that in 2018 turned 13:idea:

And refused to update the AI so that, once live players are cut off from each other, the game loses 100% of its playability other than for the absolutely worst drivers.

The platform may have turned 12 (launched at the END of 2006), but the game was a mere 4 odd years old (end of 2013). And the game was not followed with another game anywhere NEAR the same (but better). A third the content, a third the features, and a forced channeling of the player base into a multiplayer system that only continued the failed experiment of Quick Mode (almost deserted during GT6's run... you'd have thought PD might have learned from that!), GTS is no successor to GT6. They should have left the servers open until GTS2 came out with a closer equivalency to GT6's track and car count.

IMHO, GT5/6 were the high point for PD, and it is a steep downward drop since.

Have you ever played GT before GT5?!

 

[TurismoBad]

To me it looks like the track is simply inspired by Southern France. Not necessarily recreating any particular location in that region - just the general look and feel.

 

[GTPorsche]

So far we've only been shown a bridge.

So I ask.. What track?

 

[Auditore]

So has PD gone all weird now and has a bridge fetish.

They had to,they ran out of Nissan GTR's

 

[Alpha Cipher]

The more I think about it the more it seems like this is going to be a Scapes location

 

[Auditore]

Sounds quite good, but hopefully is fixed once and for all.

The penalty system will always need changes,you can never reach perfection with it.

 

[mastretta_mx]

Nope, we are missing the new Italdesign GT-R

 

[DriftMethod]

I'm wanting/hoping/wishing/guessing that we are getting one or more new racing circuits. Based only on timing and the vague Provence region mention, I'm thinking Monaco and a redesigned Grand Valley. With the Final Season of the FIA races starting next month, a couple new tracks would be a welcomed addition.

Then again, maybe we'll just get a track like this.

 

[Milouse]

No, because PD is teasing something in full 3D here. Scapes scenes are different (they look like being built by a simplistic handmade photogrammetry process).
