looking at the answer given about the psp mobile dlc "dlc when you already have 800 cars is like chucking water in an ocean its not worth it with a life time of cars" (not word for word as on ps3 and cant seem to copy it) could that mean no dlc, meaning the more expensive dlc free version is not really going to happen?

edit worked paste out


We?re planning on having 800+ cars right out of the box, which is pretty much a lifetime?s worth of racing (I?m still unlocking cars from GT4). With that sort of breadth and reach of options, having DLC would be like tossing water into the ocean.
 
GT has always been about cars, so, I don't know how anyone can complain regarding how many cars will be included. If GT5 were released with 3000 cars, I would still look through all of them!
More bang for your buck, I think.
 
I think DLC would still be a good option, despite having 800+ cars.

I mean, GT5 will be released... and it'll probably take another four to five years for GT6. Possibly longer. And a lot of new cars will come out. Look at the time between GT4 and GT5 for example... we had two - TWO - new models of Subaru Impreza in that time.

So, DLC gets a thumbs up from me... if, indeed, PD does create cars as they're released in real life.
 
I think DLC tracks add a lot more in terms of a games longevity compared to DLC cars.

Its hard to say what should be DLC until we know exactly what is "missing" from GT5, but I'd happily shell out some cash for anything PD makes.

Mini Expansion packs of 5cars every few months would be a good strategy IMO. With maybe 1-2 tracks per year.
 
Doesn't Polyphony digital carry over the car meshes anyway? I always thought that cars were carried over from GT1 to GT2, from GT2 to GT4, with the graphic updates of course.
 
the man did say that not everything will be available from the start, did he mention if it will be free or not? because i dont really want to spend any more money.
 
I believe they dont do DLC for GTPSP, because of Disk Space things, GTPSP will be heavy alone and its struggling psp power, besides for a handheld game, 800 cars is a lot and i dont find necessary DLC, about tracks... I dont know.

For GT5, im almost sure we'll get DLC, it was in the original plans for GTHD, so why not for GT5.
 
Difficult to say. Updates for Prologue were free, but most were minor. However, we did get 3 new cars for free.

I don't think we will ever see a GT6 on the PS3, even if it could be produced very quickly. GT6 will come on the PS4 and GT5 will be continually updated via DLC until the PS4 is out. The release of the PS4 is very Dependent on what MS do with the next Xbox - 720, as this will determine how quickly we get the PS4 and then GT6.
 
Each console generation seems to be getting longer, so I wouldn't expect to see a PS4 for another 6 to 8 years.
 
For me it would depend a lot on what the DLC turned out to be. If they offer new tracks, it would depend on whether that its a real track or not (in the case of the former I would definitely buy more real tracks!)

With cars I can still see the potential for DLC, though the annoying thing is that would be stuff that in the days prior to DLC would have been able to download for free...
There will still be plenty of fantastic new cars released after the game comes out, DLC would seem a good option to keep the car roster up to date post release (for example, (and ignoring whether or not they are in the game) Lamborghini are currently working on a replacement for the Murciélago, say that car dosnt make the game, and only appears (in the metal) towards the end of 2010. Now even with 800 cars in the game already, the addition of this would mean a lot more to me than than countless skylines (even if I did have to pay extra for it)

I think PD is making GT Mobile as stand alone as possible, so that they
can commit all their resources towards GT5. GT Mobile probably became a bigger :)animal to tackle than they anticipated.:)

i truly dont expect to see a ps4 at all unless the ps3 fan-base grows. a lot.

Maybe a few years down the road, a PS3 with more processing power? I don't know. I see your point, but then I really don't think that they would just stick with the PS3.

I can't see them making another PS3 with new games you can't play on the older version.

I was disappointed when I heard about pay-to-DLC on GT5 (I don't want to have to pay to make the game complete) but the longer I think about it the more sense it makes. What if Kaz doesn't get the Lamborghini license for the release but does later? I'd buy that for a dollar!

As for GT6 I've got to agree with the earlier posts, I don't think we'll see it on this console. Maybe release title on PS6 in 2020? :dunce:

p.s. Nice avatar Andrew C!
 
Unlike the PSone and PS2 the PS3's network abilities and more specifically its standard HDD make additional cars, tracks, modes and other features easily added via DLC. Since GT2 was just an expansion of GT1 (more cars tracks and tweaks) and GT4 was a similar upgrade over 3 its very reasonable to expect GT6 to be on the next console and GT5 to just see additional tracks, new car models and other tweaks via DLC and eventual expansion discs for those not online.
 
I would rather no DLC and get GT6 within the next 10years as opposed to receiving DLC and GT6 coming out in like 2020.

yes but with dlc gt5 will become gt6. racing games are different, all they are is a car driving round a track. nothing more. so if you add lots of cars and tracks to gt5, theres no need for gt6.
 
the problem with dlc cars is online if you have downloaded a car, and i havent would i be able to se it infront of me when whe race online..
or would they let us download one car for free and you download all the cars in the dlc pack so that you would see the other cars when you race online..

On other games I've played which include unique units as DLC, the game is patched prior to the DLC release so that everyone's game contains for example the new car, its just that only the people who have paid for it are able to actually use it.

That way it has the graphics for the car when you are competiting against it online.

The alternative of course is that which is used by game where there is an expansion pack that offers new bits, and forces it so that you can only compete with other people who have the expansion. While this would be a real pain if it was limited to every extra car added, it would work ok if say they released a pack of a number of new cars at once.

I dont think you could be more wrong. Racing is a lot more than a car on a track. Kaz wants his game to be realistic. Adding cars and tracks wont make this game more realistic.

Kaz said he is half way (50%) to his dream. You think he wants more cars and tracks?

answer this, the only difference between GT1 and GT5P is cars and tracks?
 
no, not in the sense of realism. gran turismo 5 will be realistic. i'm not sure after looking at prologue that gt5 will really have any realism issues. physics top notch, graphics, sound etc. after that what else is there left to add in gt6? its just cars and tracks. the only major update from now will be the transition to the first ps4 gran turismo game.

While its obvious there are differences between GT1 and GT5P there were far less differences between GT1 and GT2 on the PSone and the same with GT3 and GT4 on the PS2. Basically tweaks to the physics (within the capabilities of the console), more cars, tracks and modes. GT5 to GT6 on the PS3 would yield similar differences so why not with the capacity of the PS3 just continue to tweak via DLC and patches GT5 on the PS3 and in essence GT5 would be at the end of its life be like what GT6 wouldve been if it was on the PS3. Now GT6 instead would be similar to the leap as GT3 was to GT2 or GT5 to GT4.
