GT Sport Update 1.22 Discussion Thread

[JensC]

Since there were no june update, the july update better be a big one. I'm talking a huge one, like 10 new tracks and 25 new cars and new features.

 

[SlipZtrEm]

Hmm.. actually, I wouldn't put it past them. They put way too much emphasis on the photo mode since they added it to GT. They had that big fancy event on that bridge in Europe or something. Can't remember where or what it was. It was a scape location in the game.

It's unlikely to be a Scape (the camera is moving in the teaser, not simply zooming in), and it seems way, way too big to be a "dynamic Scape" (the modelled scenes you see the cars driving through on the main screen). To model all of that for what amounts to little more than a screensaver seems unlikely.

If you're thinking of Ronda, that wasn't a Scape — GT6 didn't have them.

This is a odd way to announce a new update,i wonder if it's a one time thing or everytime a new track comes PD will release a teaser showing some landscape

It isn't really any different from the dlc car teaser tweets imo, which I find fun since it keeps people guessing and we at least know what the update for the month contains. The opposite of this is they just don't announce anything, and people will either be surprised there is a new track on the day of the update, or disappointed there isn't one. We have a massive thread full of whining just because there was no June update dlc tease, PD's supposed "lack of communication" when they had nothing to announce, and some people just keeping their hopes up for some odd reason.

How about thinking outside the box and considering it’s something entirely new instead!

 

[celeclate]

I don't know if you guys noticed but there's a car on the bridge moving.

Yes, I see that, but it's a bridge...
And a car on a bridge did not catch me

 

[georgeme412]

Probably not the right length or scenery, but it looks like the bridge on High Speed Ring.

 

[DriftMethod]

I'm pretty sure it's this.

Funny.

View attachment 749492 Can it be an imaginary circuit inspired by an existing place?

Layout is good, but bridge has pointed towers and the castle is not anything like this one :/

Scapes, photo mode.. whatev. Real photos you stick cars in to take pics.

But yea, that is the event I'm thinking of:

Hi!

Nice to see the image I took is here (the single seater at speed on the bridge)

Been on Twitter and said what I think it could be which is :

Super formula SF19 / or SF14
IndyCar Honda 2018 Road Course Car
Formula Gran Turismo type car

Thoughts?

That's my point; they're very different. The real-world photo aspect is new to Sport; previously, PD modelled all the photo mode locations.

That's why you no longer can move the camera freely around a space (and why many of the 1000+ Scape locations are the same places, from slightly different angles). As someone that enjoys Photo Mode I find that a drawback, but from a more pragmatic angle, I imagine this new approach is probably more time-efficient.

How hard would it be to incorporate real life 3d scapes in GTSPORT?

Well then, if all this is indeed to tease a scape related addition, I'll make sure to come and complain to you first

 

[SoullessApples]

Free roam? Would be a nice little touch.

 

[moparmanmike]

I just want sebring. I have wanted to see sebring in a gran turismo game since gt3. Why do the refuse to add it? Ive even been saying it on this site since i 1st signed up back in 2010. Forza has had it since forza 2. Even the crew had it available to race on. Come on PD, lets see it happen soon!

 

[Giygas]

Great, looks like a new track. Wouldn't be surprised if we got a gaggle of new machines as well. Maybe they'll also add the Simpsons cars to Gr. 2 while they're at it.

 

[z71L28]

route X!

 

[05XR8]

route X!

That's what I've been mentioning!
Prepare for the hate.

 

[Castrol96]

TRACK PATH EDITOR?

 

[GT_Alex74]

Track editor also crossed my mind when I saw this trailer, but I'm also assuming they haven't planned its return for GTS.

 

[SlipZtrEm]

TRACK PATH EDITOR?

Nah, we aren't even at the first year mark yet. Need to wait at least another twelve months...

 

[adam thompson]

Well done to polyphony and turn 10 for keeping on listening and devoloping.

 

[Auditore]

I know its totally unrealistic and makes no sense but my first reaction to this teaser was

"Open World Gran Turismo?"

 

[dimassa19]

I know its totally unrealistic and makes no sense but my first reaction to this teaser was

"Open World Gran Turismo?"

In the next update? In the "GT Sport"?

 

[TheGeologist]

I know its totally unrealistic and makes no sense but my first reaction to this teaser was

"Open World Gran Turismo?"

Pls no

 

[Sergio18]

I wouldn't be surprised if this is a build up to a new car/video of said car, and not a track teaser at all.

[speculation]The next video will zoom in on the road, and start to show a car crossing the bridge, but not giveaway the car just yet. That'll be for another short video.[/speculation]

Something of VGT?

Malaga, Ronda. Spain

 

[Auditore]

I've a funny feeling this will introduce the new tyre model right before season 3 of the FIA! Which might cause a bit of carnage!

Turns out the tire models were made for water racing,race starts on tarmac and ends on the lake.

 

[05XR8]

Guess their twitter post achieved whatever they set out to achieve. Might just be one update: "update's" if it were more updates.

Please bring us the GTO Twin Turbo, please PD
