GT5 Latest News & Discussion

Actually, they probably have the GT5 version pretty complete since the NSX was first spotted on the set of the upcoming Avengers movie, so who knows how long PD has had their hands on it. My guess is that if this "leak" is true, the Acura NSX Concept will also be a part of the DLC cars list.

Kinda like the GT86

Dear Mr Empire, I can see that you are watching us all run around like headless chickens. I trust that you have a grin on your face

But, what was the gap between the FT86 Concept II video and the release of the FT86 & GT86?
I think it was a few months. I think they might have a working model made, it will just require detail work and stuff, because premium cars are insanely high detailed.

And then, Kazunori himself registered at GTP as "Space Empire" and its ROFL at us releasing tasty and delicious information to the hungry GT5 followers...

The track and Aventador are epic. But hey, THATS A PREMIUM BEETLE!!!! My 8 standard Beetles will finally have some rest. Nordschleife in the premium Beetle. WOOHOO!

It was about three weeks from video to release; 30th November to 20th December.

I can see 1000 different iterations of drag Beetle being created for the new test course drag strip (0-400m)

Any chance of a pic of the other three cars please Space Empire?

2.03 details.

New themes for My Home in GT Mode.
An option for tire wearing in Pit Strategy(B-spec).
Simulates regenerative braking on electric cars.
Chaparral 2J Race Car '70: Fan down force option.
Fixed unintended pit stop error in the final lap of a B-spec race.

One thing that gets me is, wouldn't the X2010 & 11 have a fan downforce option also?

And with that... fan adjustments and electric motor simulations, its clear that PD is implementing some other features to the GT5 physics system.

I just realized how long that Harbor Track has been sitting.
The 2009 FT-86 Concept Video for GT5 starts off there.

Except the X2010 and X2011 are using more modern turbine engines where as the 2J would've used an older turbine, so maybe the more modern turbines don't need it.

Grindelward or however you spell it was also in that FT 86 Concept video. (My opinion though)

Well I do know that the 2J's fan and engine run independently of one another, so you may be right.

2J Uses a snow mobile engine to drive the fan. Very different concept to the RedBull cars

PD was wise to save it for a rainy day like the first DLC issues. Lol.

I bet you it will cost over $40,000.
Just like the Sambabus.

Useful info if you're around the internet a lot.

Also, use "Edit" and try to avoid double-posting.

Anyone else notice the line of witches hats next to the straight in one of the smaller pictures? Could that be a skidpan?

Honestly. The Aventador will be the SECOND car from this pack that'll drive.

I'll drive the Beetle until I'm mad like Herbie.
