Will be weather in GT6? Yamauchi doesn't talk about it.
Apricot hill will have Time and Weather change.

Also if the demos (Gamescom atleast) are any indication, the track selection screen tells you whether there is time and/or weather change on any given course.
 
Another article. This time it's interviewing Kaz. He's damn awesome.

...we are planning to do online championships in Gran Turismo 6 and I am expecting a human drama that we have never seen in earlier versions in the online championships.
There's that "human drama" thing again. I'm quite curious about the online structure and tools he's going to give us to enable us to create these online clubs and leagues, and the racing series and championships. And more, Polyphony themselves are going to be hosting these online events from what Kaz said in a previous interview in this very quote (jeepers, am I tired). :P

Maybe... instead of racing, I'll get my "homework" ready...

I want to watch the race from the stands, be able to jump over the fence and meditate in the middle of the track.

Now THATS human drama.

Yamauchi: Yes, we are planning to do online championships in Gran Turismo 6 and I am expecting a human drama that we have never seen in earlier versions in the online championships.

mmmmm... sounds pretty good...

I´m hungry for news already!!

Say something!! Lie to me! Anything!!!:lol:

- 32 cars on track
- Porsche license
- Full livery customization

ehm.... these are lies... as you asked for :dopey:
just kidding

(Acting like I believe in this :dopey:)

Oh dear God this game will be amazing!!!!

I can´t wait to to put my hands in those Porsche´s and put a livery editor with a #77 brilliant black with golden borders in it and a mate black base paint with black rims as well!!

Then call all my 31 friends and make a 12 hr race with our custom teams and start a championship in our DEDICATED servers at Bathurst!!!

Woo hoo!

(Coming back to reality...)


Yup...thank you man...I needed it. I feel so much better. ;) 👍
 
I wanna be able to remove the batteries from the Prius like you could in GT4. Seriously, in GT4, if you tuned the Prius, it would remove the batteries leaving you with a gas powered, relatively quick car. And it had a great engine note.
 
I just saw "GT6 something something something (japanese) PS4". Strange. Link was too quick and was gone before I could try to copy it.
 
Not sure if posted - Eurogamer PD visit
Interesting that, it's all Drive Force Pro GT wheels at PD, no Thrustmaster wheels...

A selection of tires sit in a shaded corner of the office. Given Forza's big push on tire simulation this year I thought it'd be interesting to get Yamauchi's take on how important it is in simulation (Gran Turismo has its own partnership with Yokohoma), and whether the suspension upgrades brought through Polyphony's partnership with KW are worth more when it comes to recreating the feel of a car. "There's a limit to what you can gain from just measuring tires," he said.

"You can place a tire on a tire bench to measure its characteristics, and you get a variety of data from that test, but that tire's not exactly the same as a tire that's in an actual race and is heated under those stress conditions. On the other hand we drive the real cars, so we have this immense amount of logging data that came off the cars. We also have a simulator. And it's all about how we balance that triangle between the three. And what we do is exactly the same as what a company like Red Bull Racing does with their cars - they also try to balance that triangle between all three. All the top F1 teams try to do that, but it still results in a huge difference between the teams. There are so many factors, and there are unknowns that aren't really clear."

Yamauchi's office features a small Gran Turismo 6 rig so he can take to the track whenever he wants. The reading material's telling, too - it's a book on the laws of turbulence, showing how far he's going to replicate the effects of aerodynamics on Gran Turismo 6's cars.

While I can certainly appreciate what Kaz is getting at with the talk of the "triangle", to simultaneously brush off the importance of getting detailed tire information in the first half of the paragraph, and then compare what they're doing to what RBR does seems... odd.

"Just" measuring tires isn't the point the critics are getting at with GT5's limited tire physics; it's getting them to react like real tires, to not have Minis matching the g's of Vettes on the same grade of rubber. That all said, the GT6 pods at JFF certainly seemed different from the Academy demo, so Yokohama might already be incorporating their data 👍
 
Just woke up (12:46PM at Spain) and no news...just fine...real fine.

Amar said something about the "embargo" thing like he had some news that he couldn´t talk about.
Maybe the news were that there were no news at all. lol

Fantastic PD...you are great at re-selling your game.

Hope to see something during the week...like a trailer or an updated gran-turismo.com with some more stuff.

Going to watch the F1 race. See you guys.
 
Without answers, I'm stuck in the land beyond nothingness :(.

ANSWERS! ANSWERS! ANSWERS! Who's going to be the scapegoat?! I'ma get ya.
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice, shame on... shame on youuu. :}
 
In this pic, on Kaz's t-shirt, you see all the known companies involved with GT6, but we haven't heard anything about Recaro yet....?

I'm actually kinda disappointed, why not even a new trailer? Jeez Kaz, I only wanted some new, important information about your product before it's release. Apparently, that's too much to ask for.
 
I would like to know too. I was put under the assumption that there would be more info on GT6 today, not tomorrow.

Perhaps we will have more advanced field of view settings, like PC sims?

Maybe Kaz lost his credentials and couldn't get in? So SONY pulled the plug on the GT6 presentation? They should've just told us at GamesCom what they intended.
