Can someone please ask Kaz why used cars only come in one color?
If it hasn't already been asked.

Used cars don't come in only one color. They do change colors. Some just take a bit longer to change colors than others. I have Chargers in Plumb Crazy for a while and now they're in Panther Pink. So, the do eventually change colors.

I buy every car I see under 12k credits and have dozens of the same cars in the same colors while having no other color. It feels broken.
 
The choice of colours in the used dealership is a bit constrained; more variety / randomness (over a shorter time period) would be nice 👍

I've been waiting for a Griffith in anything other than Formula Red Pearl...
 
Be nice to know why the GT Academy 370z's were not in game.
The stock 370z could of
had the GT4 kit for RM :/

This car is in the game.

About that GT-academy car (in fact there are 2, a 370Z and a GT-R), can't remember exactly where they were gifted, think it was for the licenses, gold or silver I believe but I'm not sure.

Never seen it. You get a GT-R Academy Edition when finishing S-license in Gold. That´s it.

And standard cars have different colors. I own a BMW 2002 Turbo in green and silver.

Give us Porsche before SAAB any day.

The reason why Porsche isn´t in the game, maybe is its exorbitant high license costs, I think. Another developer mentioned this in an interview. And also EA is one of the main license owner.

Buy it, paint it, love it?

I think although some cars appear in different colours, that's because they are different entries in the cycle.

I've only seen the Griff in red, so bought it. Cerbera I've only seen in what can only be described as baby blue, T350 in the good ol' TVR blue / green / purple iridescent scheme.

Not seen a V8S yet, to complete my collection :)

Got 2 T350s as want one stock, was very disappointed with how weak it sounded stock, and sounds horrible with racing exhaust, will pursue different combinations to try to find a nice engine note, pretty gutted to be honest :(

So anyway, I think some cars are only in the cycle once, and so will only be in one colour. (Anybody got an FGT that isn't blue...?)
 
Would like to know if this back up save data feature is still going to implemented. Not impatience :P Just curious as late December could turn into early January.
 
lol, just used google translate to ask: "When will we get leaderboards for all cars and tracks?", and when i translate from Japanese back to English, it says: "What will we get when the leaders of all cars and trucks?"
Thanks Google..

Did you win the silver one? I know it can be won, but I've seen many 2002s now and they've all been bright green (with some funny name).

Well, I want to paint it in a TVR colour, and I can't be arsed to "trade", but it seems doubtful the colour I really want will turn up at all. I want Moonraker Black, Cooper Green Metallic, Crimson Starmist and Olympic Blue Pearl (the purple one :boggled:). I've got the T350C, which is an animal (whereas in GT4 it was a hopeless understeering pig!) and the V8S, in Yellow - which is fine. I need a Cerbera in Alpine Green, too, in the spirit of tradition!
That's a few Tamoras I'd need to buy! ;)

So yeah, the used car dealership doesn't work sensibly! 💡
It does makes sense to "craft" the car cycles to better control the rarity of certain cars, but they could at least make the colour random for our sanities' sake! :dunce:
 
Akira, if you would be so kind...
アジアゲームショウ。香港・ペニンシュラのバーで「ハイネケン・ロングネックのアルミ缶」を発見。ボトムからトップに向かって深くなるグリーンのグラデーションと、そこに溶けるブラックのハイネケンロゴ、かっこいい。ゼフィルスを思い出す。

Heineken??? At the Hong Kong Peninsula (Hotel)???
 
Asia Game Show - At the bar of the Peninsula Hong Kong Hotel I found Heineken long neck aluminum cans. Their gradating green deepening from the bottom to the top and the Heineken logo on the black fading in are cool. They remind me of the Zephyrus butterfly

Probably this:

Anyway, not really related with GT5. It looks like Yamauchi is in Hong Kong.

Unless... it's hinting that we're going to see the Hong Kong track soon!
 
Ahhh thanks.

The Asia Game Show runs from Dec 24-27 in HK. I might have to check it out.

Apparently, Kaz will be a guest... on Christmas day! Hmmm... it'll be tough for me to go... damn.
 
Hi guys,

would someone who speaks Japanese be so kind and ask Mr. Yamauchi about full support for Logitech G27 steering wheel? Wheel itself is compatible but configuration screen in options is needed so we can configure all buttons on the wheel.

Thanks in advance.
 
Can someone ask him if they plan to improve the online system ?

Half of the time I join a lobby. There seems to be no one starting the race. or else its a room where all the aids are allowed.

We need more filters when searching for rooms. Like being able to see wich aids are allowed.

We also need a more detailed system when making car restrictions. A system like the PP system in GT 5 prologue was 100 times better than this we have now.

Also it would be cool to make age restrictions like the 60's 70's 80's or something like that.
 
Just a random suggestion: Instead of always just asking Kaz questions and bugging him over small things, try to show appreciation and take some time to send him a thank you for all his work. Let him know what you love about his game, not just what you dislike or want changed.

I think after Update 1.05 the guy deserves a lot of love.
