I think the endurance races will be added when the b-spec update comes out. If they don't, then I think it was absolutely stupid of them (PD) to do the accurate star layout for Le Man.Well If the 24hrs of Le Mans endurance race race is not put in I'll be upset, I do it with friends every year on the weekend of the actual race.
PD being PD and doing what they do best. Sucking at game design.
I think they'll be updated into the game alongside B-spec.
Just unlocked the S series and noticed that there are 24 minutes races instead of 24hrs, not even a single hour required to complete one of the races, what's the point of putting such a beautiful weather system without 24hrs races?
My expreience with endurence races so far with GT5 has been, they are just a grind. You get a car that can kill everything else, pass everything on the first couple of turns, and baby sit the game till the clock runs out. There's no way to loose. If these events carry through 6 there should be tighter pp limits to better match the competition.
For the 24 hr races waiting for bspec makes sense.
But why not throw a few 300km or 2 hr races in there for now?
That makes sense - though I would like the option still to do so the old-fashioned way, especially with the nuances of lighting now in the game - mind you, it pretty much rained all night during the two GT5 24hr racesGood. I certainly don;t have the time to do 24 hour endurance races during the work week. I guess they pulled stats on how many people actually completed the endurance races in GT5 and came to this decision.
Why? because YOU don't like themNo endurance? Great news! I hope they never come back! 👍
Why? because YOU don't like them
That seems very selfish![]()
Because PD is run and staffed by incompetent people. That much is very obvious.
I really do hope they bring 24-hour races in near future, or at least longer races than 30 minutes. 24 minute "endurance" races are disappointing, night comes and goes, same as for rain which stops sooner before it even starts. Besides, rain is always scripted, for example Le Mans always starts with 60% wet track and in Suzuka 10-laps rain comes around halfway of the race. What a waste of nice weather and time system they've developed.
Also, tire wear and fuel depletion needs to be added back to arcade race, why on earth these were removed!? Why would i ever want to select more than 5 lap races in arcade, if theres no need to visit pit? Maybe PD should add event creator or whatever it is called, where you select track, laps, weather and time (or time limit if you want to make your own endurance race) and AI opponents, wasnt Kaz talking about something like this sometime ago?
