GT6 Q/A

[THOMASBARNES]

@BHRxRacer Can Silverstone be set to nighttime?

 

[CCXRacer]

I agree and while they are at it let us fill out those wheel arches, I mean why not add simple wheel spacers with a preview, also I want to paint my standard wheels.

"yes, it's technically possible" well do it then!!! do it now

Absolutely. It doesn't even have to be that dreaded "stance" word either. What's the first thing outside of suspension you'd need to do to make a classic car good on the track? Oh yes, wider tires and wheels.

100% This has to be the next best thing?? Option to add wide arches and the split rims to go with them, obviously with different offset on a slider.

And this is an iconic car full stop This was an RM in the past and we should be able to perform the above modification by now.

 

[Ryan81]

Not there.

According to the car list on GTP, it is

 

[HuskyGT]

It didnt hurt to ask. Now we know there are no parts for it.

There will be always DLC in the future... hopefully.

 

[rampageturke]

Sounds perfectly fine to me.

If Call of Duty/Battlefield/FIFA (and other sports titles) are considered an entirely new game with 95% of assets reused, zero gameplay changes and the entire UI copied and pasted, I think GT6 being called GT5.5 when they add 25% more content, rebuild the physics and revamp the UI is a little bit rich.

Hell, if COD "patched" their games like that, I'd have bought one since 2010.

oh jeez that grasping at straws

b-but its ok!! other games do it! so that makes it fine.....

 

[BHRxRacer]

Guys I'll have to stop taking very detailed requests about cars and stuff or I'll never get to play.






@Swonz @Streeto @FRoSTeD I did the 240sx, can't be dewinged. Not all cars can be dewinged.

@BHRxRacer hello there, can you post a picture of the Nissan mm-R (
833 Nissan mm-R Cup Car '01). It was one of the scariest looking standard in GT5...thanks!

Hello, please tell me, are there any measurement units option, or they depend on language or region,just like it was in GT5?

I'm sure this has been both asked and answered already, but I couldn't find it.

How much hard drive space is needed for the install? My PS3 is running a bit low at the moment so I need to know how much I got to delete before friday!

I'll have to check later if I remember to. It's not the initial install space that's a pain, it's the pre-installations for tracks adn stuff. You can turn them off but loading times will increase.

Thanks for all pictures and videos from you, great job.

Can you please make a video from Circuit de la Sarthe 2013?
I and a friend want to see the 2013 version and we couldn't find any gameplay.

Ugh. My least favourite track of all time. I'm already sleepy, I'll see if I can do it in the morning.

@BHRxRacer I have two questions about replay photo mode.

When you pause to take the photo, what is the first angle it gives you? What I'm looking for is the angle of the roadside camera like they had in GT4! One example I remember is on the old Rome circuit, where, if you pause while the replay camera is on top of one of the buildings, the first photo angle was in that view.

The other question is in two parts - Is there a "helicopter" view? Can you give an example of the different views available?

I also have a question about the "cabriolets" (or "convertibles" if you prefer).

Can you race with the top down?

It's different from one point to another in the race. The camera number 1 is always different but mostly the free moving cam. I don't think you can recreate helicopter view. Also, I answered this. You can't choose top down/up from what I can tell.

Do you get the credits for winning the same race twice..?

Yes. Not sure about special events, but in races you get the same amount every time. I could be drunk I'll re-check later.

Is arcade restricted to maximum of 7 oponents (8 cars on track)??

Maximum I could get so far is 9 opponents. Professional level, arcade at indianapolis.

@BHRxRacer can you tell if temperature is changing and if yes, has it impact on physic? Thanks

So far I can't tell.

Agreed.

btw did you get your hands on a GT-R? and can you confirm whether BBS LMs/Rays VR.G2 wheels have been taken out?

Tomorrow morning I'll buy it and check.

Any news about the change of exhaust for standard cars? TIA.

Answered that. No not visible.

How they look. Just dealer/gallery view. Thanks.

As for licenses, overhead view.

Licenses overhead? I don't see how that helps lol. I can only see B and A. Here are the cars

Still no drag racing is there?

Nothing so far.

Hello　I have a question to become very concerned about　Aero parts do you a lot? Are there any over-fender?I'm glad if you show me the picture and movies

Here's a corvette with all the mods.

Urgent question, does the standard edition cd gt6 include 25 15th anv cars when not pre ordered?

Nope.

Any chance of a picture of the TOM's X540 Chaser? Thanks!

Sounds perfectly fine to me.

You play(ed) COD...? Aren't you supposed to be like all serious business and ****?

The guy who's been playing gt6 for days feels this way. How long have you been playing it?

I also said it's worth buying because of the physics upgrade alone.

You just won the post of the day by me!

On another note, I just found this gem on YouTube:



Do you know when you will unlock this type of event?

I'll tell you when I do. I did unlock Goodwood after completing the first series.

I've found the answer for my question.

Yes, you can rollover a car.

I posted pictures of a flip yesterday. Pick a car from the arcade selection and I'll flip it in a video.

@BHRxRacer Can you please do a race with the AI set on 10 in Arcade Mode?

I'll try in the morning.

@BHRxRacer Can Silverstone be set to nighttime?

Someone asked me this about another track, can't remember who or which track. Silverstone maximum is at 1900 which isn't night at all.

Nice work. Enjoy the game now!

 

[Famine]

oh jeez that grasping at straws

It does rather seem to be a straw grasp if you've got that out of what I said.

I enjoyed MW2 tremendously - probably played it more to death than the original MW - but you're only kidding yourself if you think that the new perks, new weapons and different maps constituted an entirely new game. Not only did it play exactly the same, the UI was bordering on identical - and COD isn't even the worst offender on that front

GT6, on the other hand, plays differently to GT5, has an entirely new UI over GT5 (it's similar in parts - there's only so many ways to accomplish what it's trying) and almost exclusively adds content rather than, as with COD's multiplayer maps, taking it away.

What constitutes a new game in a series? An almost identical game with slightly different content or a game where every part of the look and feel has been changed? If it's the former, COD: Ghosts and GT6 are new games. If it's the latter, GT6 is a new game. If it's neither, I'm not sure any sequel can ever be a truly new game.

You play(ed) COD...? Aren't you supposed to be like all serious business and ****?

You should see me playing LEGO Indiana Jones.

This evening's gameplay fun is LittleBigPlanet2 and the original Spyro the Dragon on PS1.


Haven't bought a COD since MW2 though, because they just keep releasing a "new" game the same as the old one and never sort out the chronic cheating problems in the old one because the next game is out soon.

 

[happycorey]

Famine, COD is probably the best possible example of reselling the same game over and over. Battlefield 3/4 are somewhat similar but there is somewhat of a difference. Although between all others I think there is a significant difference.

Thanks a lot for all you share BHR

 

[GOTMAXPOWER]

Well, apparently Massa's helmet costs $17,000.
http://wheels.blogs.nytimes.com/2009/08/25/how-felipe-massas-helmet-saved-his-life/?_r=0

It costs Vettel 5,000 EUR to paint his helmet, over a season it costs him more than donuts.

 

[Lux Klonoa]

Hey, BHR and anyone else on here, can you post the full version of "All My Life"? I need my Daiki Kasho fix.

 

[Zuel]

I got a question @BHRxRacer,

Are all the aerodynamic parts adjustable, and can we RM cars again which ones if not all?

 

[iainoflo85]

@BHRxRacer I'm really impressed with your hard work in answering so many questions. Also your not a bad driver. It's nice to see someone who knows how to drive in gameplay videos, the TMS videos were full of drivers that crashed into barriers, spun out or hit AI cars. So 👍 for that, it's certainly very refreshing.

can we RM cars again which ones if not all?

You can't RM cars in GT6. Was answered in the other thread.

 

[05XR8]

I notice lots of "human" animations in GT AUTO. Does this take away processing power/memory, etc? The amount of people moving in Goodwood looked cooooool in the replay. Can we expect more of these type of animation for pit crew? I dont know how much time this took away from doing other features during development.

Everything like this has a computational 'cost'. If previous GT5 trackside characters are anything to go by, they aren't amazingly high in polys - nothing near a premium car, also the adaptive tesseelation will help here. The animations themselves will just be scripted or based of a simple motion capture, so they won't be too costly. Nothing like what it takes to fit the physics engine calculations into a game that is refreshing the display at 60 times a second.

Personally, I am all for this type of thing. I think it helps GT move away from it's slightly clinically polished nature. More of this is needed, more life...

 

[Johnnypenso]

@BHRxRacer

I may have missed this, but does the installation of the aero parts on the Corvette (or any other car) always affect downforce and PP. The examples above on the Vette with the front splitter...did it affect front downforce or is it just cosmetic?

Also, I don't see anywhere on the screen where it tells you how installing aero affects PP. I assume the rear wings do as always. How do you know how much downforce or PP you are getting by installing a wing? Do you have to complete the purchase to find out?

If anyone else knows, feel free to chime in:tup:

 

[lancia delta hf]

Thanks @BHRxRacer

Pd has GT5 premium cars can you count? And they (T10) buy models from other companies, see the F40(wrongly modeled)

Yes i can count, The question is do you have reading comprehension skills? Turn 10 have modelled more cars than PD for their latest game and the fact they have outsourced doesnt put PD one up on them . If FM5 was on xbox360 then FM5 would have FM4 models, They could easily do a PD and add FM4 models and they would have more models than GT's premium models i believe.

I suspect the day 1 patch is pretty important otherwise Kaz wouldn't have made such a big deal about making the journalist hold back reviews until the patch was active..

I hope you are right.

 

[sk8er913]

Yeah it looks like a "real struggle" to win races...

The corvette showdown shown good AI...

 

[05XR8]

If the AI perform like in that GT-R test, after the patch, should be happy days until GT7.

Nd im sure the patch has to give us extra AI cars in Arcade Mode.

 

[LMSCorvetteGT2]

Which video exactly, I had no idea people were giving them names already. Considering the amount of sheer videos and the main corvette one passed around as of late was the C7 at Daytona at night, which blew by every single car like they were sitting ducks.

The one at Willow Springs, where a Z06 AI was racing against a guy in a C7. Check on the Video/Screenshots thread, it's not in here.

I saw a screenshot of that, but not a video so...and exact link would help because a screenshot doesn't prove anything since it is a still.

 

[smskeeter23]

For example on the rocky walls of Trial Mountain... generally all the textures of those tracks were horrible.


(GT5 image)

With Autumn Ring they have done a great restyling job.

MONKEY!

Here you go:



And this one is from this thread:



Corvette is Mission A-5, GT-R is Mission B-5.

 

[Madertus]

Guys, what about our very first car in career mode? Do we get to buy one on our own, or is it like in PSP Gran Turismo - we are given one random ride to destroy the AI with?

Consensus says the Honda Fit RS '10 is our forced first car.

They actually get worse by the release but I end up buying them because I need quick/cheap fun with minimal loading times. Ghosts isn't even worth it though. Only played like 5 hours and shelved it. Wish I stuck to my word and didn't buy it.

Hey, BHR and anyone else on here, can you post the full version of "All My Life"? I need my Daiki Kasho fix.

I think putting up only the soundtrack would be infringing some copyrights.

I got a question @BHRxRacer,

I don't now what cars you can RM. Base models maybe? Anyway I'm pretty sure you can adjust the rear downforce after installing a spoiler. Not sure about front downforce.

@BHRxRacer I'm really impressed with your hard work in answering so many questions. Also your not a bad driver. It's nice to see someone who knows how to drive in gameplay videos, the TMS videos were full of drivers that crashed into barriers, spun out or hit AI cars. So 👍 for that, it's certainly very refreshing.

Really? I thought they were embarrassing. I've actually been playing nervously because I'm way too rusty. Haven't played for real in GT5 since that 908 time trial at spa. After that it's all arcade racers. If you weren't being sarcastic, thanks <3

Honda FIT is the starting car you have to purchase.
