Here is the Babylon translation. Good Luck.

That because don't understand the details about the circumstances of the title individual though Yoshida can talk about the PS whole, want to insert it in an article after having confirmed it to each production person in charge; asked. But it doesn't seem to have done it.


My best guess:

Maybe he is saying that Yoshida shouldn't/doesn't talk about specifics of titles often and should stick to the PS as a whole.

And that he should consult production/marketing people who are in charge before he does speak specifics, but he did not.


Edit: Dave your 20 seconds in front of me.👍 The good news, two independent minds arrived at the same conclusion. 👍

Am I the only one thinking Kaz is pissed because word got out about these features, and they are NOT in the game? I don't see anywhere in those broken translations where he actually confirms their existence.

It's possible, but surely Sony would have come out by now and corrected the mistake. Actually, they would have pulled it immediately. So, my guess is that it is legit info and they liked what happened to the Standard/Premium debate when it came out. So, the powers that be, let it go. Kaz is pissed though, as he should be.

Yeah, guess that's true. Hmmm....carry on. :scared:
 
My version:

UKでいろいろ混乱した情報が出てますが、E3では何も約束してないんですよね。あの記事はSCEEのマーケが作ったものですが理解に苦しみます

In the UK various confusing information have come out, but see, at the E3 I didn't promise anything. That story has been made by SCEE's marketing department and I fail to understand [why they would do that].

吉田さんはPS全般のことは話せるけど、タイトル個々の事情については、詳細はわからないから、それぞれの制作担当者に確認した上で記事に挿入して欲しいというお願いをしていたんです。でも、それがなされなかったようですね。

Mr. Yoshida can speak about PS in general, but regarding information on invidividual games, as he doesn't know the details, we asked that we would've liked him to report news upon first confirming [the information] from the various developers in charge. However, it appears he didn't.
 
So...it's safe to say weather etc is confirmed?? I do feel bad for him though, when he told the public to expect more at Gamescom, this must of been his big surprise. Now I'm thinking his not going to show anything at Gamescom to get us confused and piss us off lol.

I get the impression that Kaz is working on these features, but he doesn't know if he will have them in GT5 or not (for example weather might be causing framerate problems that he cannot fix yet etc). What he says on Twitter suggests that he is angry that they said these features will be in the final game, where it will end up looking very bad for him if they are not, even if he had no plans to include them in the first place.

Could easily go either way:

Word go out and KY had his thunder stolen. Maybe he is frustrated that there is no marketing coordination and he can't reveal his stuff as he wants. There was that whole thing about unanounced features still... and it wouldn't be the first leak that turned out accurate (remember that Japanese web page leak that first brought on the whole standard cars and cockpits thing).

Then it could also be that the quote is incorrect, the guy spoke out of turn and it's not true and now KY is pissed because he knows what that does to him and his team in this position. The GT world is in a pretty volatile state already, he doesn't really need fake news flying around especially from sources that should be trustworthy. It just builds expectations which then would get crushed.

I think we are all hoping for it to be true and accurate, but I sadly with GT, I don't think you can really count on that sort of thing much.
 
Here's something about the weather system. Looks like it's still not decided wether they're going to have it in the game or not.

天候の変化とか、もしGT5で出来たらいいですね。

It would be nice if we were able to implement the weather changes and such in GT5.
 
I believe that part was someone talking to him, was it not?

Yes. The guy says he's looking forward to GT5 and he's cheering Yamauchi on so he can finish the last parts before the release. After that, he says that it seems like there already is an outline of the time change system in the game, but what about the weather? he asks.
 
I think we need a GTP public relations officer at this point :P

I'd say Polyphony Digital needs a PR person ASAP or a proper translator service ( sorry Translator-san ) at least to get rid of all this Babylonian speech confusion which only causes trouble ( we're not even sure we should be disappointed or jumping for joy half the time when something is said ).

*volunteers*

My rates are reasonable.
 
Lord knows I wish they would hire someone for the job.

Trying to confirm anything about this game, is a constant exercise in frustration and total confusion. :boggled:
 
To me it sounds like these are features that Kaz has been working on but might not make the cut because they aren't good enough for him.

Seems like Yoshida let the cat out of the bag because he knew Kaz was working on them all.

Kaz doesn't like to be forced to do things.
 
Maybe Kaz will remove Leaked features from the game because of leak:)

Apparently, the problem here is, Kaz hasn't even decided what features will be in the game at this point.

Evidently they work on all these features but he leaves the option for inclusion on them open until the last possible moment.

I don't know when the last possible moment is, but I would think it would have to be coming up pretty soon.
 
new delay situation comes up.:( i hope it wont.Kaz wants to make surprise and he still undecided to put weather feature in the game..Becaus of leak forced to make him to put this feature.I think Kaz is angry about this.,He wants to make with own decide.

if he wants ot put weather he'll use dlc. if not and decides to delay the game again.. well i'll sold my ps3 and wheel and stop thinking about videogames.
 
Reposting something i wrte on a different forum that i think it´s worth discussing at GTP:

If they are working on these features but didn´t decided to put in, then, how will they be integrated on the game? Isn´t GT Life done by now? If it´s done, then things like racing school and dynamic weather shouldn´t be last minute decisions.

I say this because those are the kind of features that would be throughly thought out during the process of game design, gameplay design. Weather should play a major role if it´s in, it should have special events and such... witch is kind of difficult if you throw them in at the last minute.

I´ve been following this game since 1997, so it pains me to say that i´m also on the "i´ll believe it when i see it"camp, because i was there when drag racing was supposed to be on GT2, online for GT4, damage as an update for Prologue...

Sounds like some of those features are not finished. It´s a shame. Out of the four new features i just hope dynamic weather makes in. It´s the most important IMO.

Don´t you guys agree with this?
 
i think weather is already put in from times ago..

i remember a interview with a french driver that tryed gt5 in PD studios..
this interview is old now, i think 8 month, and he confirmed rain and tyre temperature.. i think weather is already confirmed time ago... so this feature could be a surprise for the end, but it seems not keep from president of scea
 
But Kaz never said he was sure it would be included in the game! Why? I don't know, maybe because of framerate drops, technical unsolved bugs, physics problems...
 
Yeah we know weather has been developed, as has a track editor. Whether they are good enough for the final game I don't know.

Having DLC weather would be crap since you will complete GTmode without that feature. I think weather will be included on release, with a track editor as a DLC or held back for GT6.
 
My take on this is, that they've done some tests in their spare time. With the track editor and weather effects, just to see if it works. And if it works they'll put it in the game. But since they now have a deadline, they will do these things at the last moment, and if they don't have enough time then it wouldn't matter. Now it has been leaked, they HAVE to have it done before the deadline.

Yeah the plan is to pressure them into including it lol :D

If KY is pissed, and if the Sony 'suits' made this mess, Kaz may be waiting for them to clean it up. (?) "He didn't promise these things at E3" (paraphrased) so why would he have to explain anything. Sony World Wide may have some s'plaining to do.?????

If I were Kaz, and this got dropped on my lap, I might think the same way. Let Sony WW clean this mess up, I've got work to do to get the damn game out. :grumpy:
