[sayba2th]

Speaking of patches ect, has anyone seen a link to the Ascari launch party as yet, been looking around and nothing showing. Fellow members, mods, T-12, Famine, Jordan, Kaaaaaaz! Anyone? interested in hearing from the horses mouth about the details of what this will include.

When does it start?

 

[sayba2th]

That's the thing all I know is it's Dec 2 & 3, as per GT, Sony and GTP but times I don't have.

EDIT: here's the deets https://www.gtplanet.net/gt6-launch-event/

There was someone that posted pics about 2 hours ago. Looks very fun. I don't remember which thread it was though...

 

[Streeto]

It was in the News & Discussion thread, who would of thought eh?

(Might have to zoom in)

I assume all times are GMT+1, since it's in Ronda.

So if RM cars are no more, does that mean that we can now put racing numbers on all cars or does it mean we've lost the ability to number our cars?

Why would it mean that?

@sayba2th @fortbo

So would the time they reveal features and stuff be the "software presentation"?

It's either that or the "GT6 "HANDS ON" TIME" @ 19:00.

I think it's been confirmed that we can change numbers on Base Models.

 

[AleksandarSRB]

Toyota GT-one picture please

Could someone please post a photo of this? Maybe using a standard car? Any car really.

 

[Brutaka]

Toyota GT-one picture please

There's one around here somewhere i saw it yesterday, but it looks the same.

 

[BlackHawk1722]

The people who do that in real life are the same idiots who put spoilers on cars that don't need them

Hes got a point

 

[eSZee]

Hes got a point

He has an opinion of people he doesn't know.
Because they do something silly he doesn't approve of to their cars, doesn't mean they're idiots.

@sayba2th @fortbo

Yeah I was in there but could only see that GTP was covering and to stay tuned, new new article put up since my original post. Thanks however

 

[TexasTyme214]

If you ever get your hands on a GT3 or Super GT car, may you please tell me the maximum downforce it makes?

Ooo, yeah, please do.

 

[ScotteDawg]

I prefer the RM in GTauto.

Further more PoDi didn't ad any new RM in GT6 so I wish they didn't give up this concept.

Okay, there are 18 new "Base Models" in the GT6 car list. These "Base Models" are the equivalent of an RM car!

Instead of purchasing a car then "modifying" it, we are just going to buy one that is already modded... So, when added to the 27 that were in GT5, we will have 45 in GT6 that are already done for us - all we do is paint, add parts (wheels, turbo/supercharger, ECU, etc.) and add/change the number!

The only difference between GT5 RM's and their GT6 counterparts is that they will not be called an RM!

No, they're not. They're race cars that are already in the game, but with blank liveries. I don't see anyone describing GT500 cars as RM models.

 

[Mini Stiggy]

I would say they are equivalent. You can paint them and change the number on them. Just like an RM car.

 

[TheDabbinDave]

All I did was quit GT6 -.-

It's fine now though, thanks. I have the old fat model.

Did you allow it to phone home and report the problem?

 

[Imari]

Let's take an example.

Honda NSX GT500 Base Model '08

Is this a race modified version of an NSX? No way.

It is a GT500 car without the livery. GT500 cars are built on spaceframes, and bear basically no mechanical resemblance to the road cars. The shell is made to look more or less like the road car it's "based" on, but will be modified as much as necessary to meet aero and regulatory requirements.

It's not an NSX, it simply looks like one for marketing purposes. The only way you'd ever modify an NSX into a GT500 NSX is by setting it on fire and starting from scratch.

So that one at least is not a Race Modified version. Some may be modifications of road cars, but I think you'll find a lot of the race cars are so far removed from the cars they're named after that they're really not the same in any sensible fashion.

Hence why I don't think it's fair to describe them as Race Modified. They're not modified, they're purpose built.

Ok, I think you've convinced me that I'm wrong

 

[FishHunters]

Are there any options to have to qualify for grid position prior to a race now?

 

[iainoflo85]

Only for online.

 

[Halcyon925]

From all things which PD did(n't) in GT6 is the most "don't understandable" for me that, they haven't included Seattle Circuit

It might be possible to recreate Seattle Circuit when the Course Maker is released. Although it won't be exact, especialy the scenery; you could use the Ronda, Spain location to make a 'city' feel.

 

[Coxis]

Does it support triple screens?

 

[SuperShouden]

It seems Forza get the licence so that PoDi had to remove it from GT6.

Big mistake.

Well, I would say it's gone for now. Turn10 said they weren't going to do exclusive licenses anymore, so if they got the exclusive license for Top Gear they'd be going back on their word...then again, they did promise people who pre-ordered Forza 5 enough tokens to buy any car in the game and then proceeded to make some cars worth more than the game itself...and as an "apology" temporarily lowered the prices. So...yeah..

 

[Johnnypenso]

Have we figured out whether the new front aero components also add front aero points and how much? Do the rear wings add different levels of aero or just the standard 20?
