First off, I want to start with the biggest glaring issue that I have seen from this trailer. I will add more posts but I wanted to start off with the biggest FU we got from PD regarding GT7.
The big red flag that GT7 is just a continuation of GT Sport and that both games will be running concurrently within the Gran Turismo Tournament series.
So it has the same named mode, so what. Was Arcade mode in GT1 the same as in GT2 and the same as GT3 and GT4 etc? No, the mode having the same name as the equivilent mode in GT Sport means nothing beyond GT7 will have an equivilent mode.
The implications of this are pretty glaring for what we all were hoping we would get with a new iteration, we will NOT get a new physics model that will harness the power of the PS5.
That's a huge stretch, just beucase the mode is named the same so it the physical engine. Now the chances are the physics engine is a development of GT Sports, but it's almost certain that it won't be the same. We can already see the tyre temps reacting differently and that's just in the first in game clip shown.
As you can see from the capture of the GT7 menu that "GT Sport Live" is included. As you may know, this includes videos from the tournament event series. This means that GT7 will participate in the GT Sport tournament series because it wouldn't be included in a game that didn't have it.
Yes and so what if GT7 picks up the mantle from GT Sport? Are you suggesting GT Sport will continue to be the main game for the FIA races (assuming the FIA partnership remains in place) after GT7 launches? Would it not make more sense that GT7 will pick up that place? Alternatively is it within the realm of possability that if PD wanted to continue supporting GT Sport in this way they might have different online races taking place in GT Sport for people to enjoy.
What does this mean?
- GT 7's online multiplayer section will in fact be GT Sports Weekly Race and Tournament Series, they are and will be exactly the same.
- I don't see a single ounce of sense in this statement, so GT7 will have cars and tracks not availalbe in GT Sport, but the races will be the same in both games??? Are you suggesting the extra cars and tracks in GT7 will be made availalbe in GT Sport?
[*]GT 7 will have the same exact physics as GT Sport
It's already evident they are likely not the exact same based on how the tyre temps are changing in the GT7 clip compared to in GT Sport.
[*]GT 7 will not utilize the PS5's power for a better physics model
Proof please?
Another dead giveaway:
This "Multiplayer" section is definitely a pretty bland placeholder. Never has any modern online game ever used the term "multiplayer", PD does not use that terminology either.
Loads of games use the term "multiplayer" oh but that's right, after being disproven you now believe no sims use the term "multiplayer", but even that's not true:
Whatever this mode is called or ends up being called should it actually be changed des not prove aynthing anyway other than it's where you will race other people, online.
The reason behind the disguise is the fact that this will actually be called "GT Sport". In line with the rest of the naming scheme from this menu.
Yes, GT Sport's online portion will be the core of GT7 online racing.
I doubt that, GT7 will likey take over hosting the Sport made races. It's likely GT Sport will continue to have it's own races for a while after GT7's realease, but whether they are conneted to any major competitions is unknown. Another possability is GT Sport will hostthe official competition for a period after GT7's launch and then the baton will be handed to GT7 and it will be patched in and GT Sport will cease to play that role. What is obviouse given GT7 does not appear to use the exact same physics as GT Sport, has more cars and tracks than GT Sport, I cannot see how the two games will combine together online.
If you are an online racer only and don't care about career mode, why would you buy this game? Just the upscaled (2)4k and 120Hz rate?
I'll add some more contentious points from the trailer in subsequent posts.
Because GT Sport will likely be scaled back and the FIA competition side likely ended altogether on or shortly after GT7's release.
I would say, you'll likely feel like a numpty when GT7 comes out, but you won't becuase you're just trolling these forums. Loads of your points have been disproven or challenged and when they are you can never prove your point, you just say "it says so on the interweb check yourself" or some other equally banal response.
