Lots of Games have it Now. Should GT 5 have a Rewind Option?

I would like the option of a rewind feature.
I was playing NFS Shift yesterday and I kept having to restart races for making simple mistakes. All I could think of was "God I wish this had a rewind feature".

License tests in GT will help you to learn to drive, not a rewind feature...

And, evilfoxhound, do not, I repeat, DO NOT use:
- Restart
- Racing line
- Standard Physics
- B-Spec
- Any driving aid (ABS, TCS, SC) that the real car doesn't have
- Damage OFF
- Tyre wear OFF
- Fuel consumption OFF
and all those other ARCADE features Gran Turismo sadly has and that detract for its otherwise impecable reputation as a SIM.
But if you indeed use them, please understand this.
Using them is a sin, but ... using REWIND ... that's heresy. People have written in this thread they would stop playing GT if this feature would be present.
Careful, then.

As an option, sure. So long as it's not required, it's all good. It doesn't affect anyone. It would be like taking out Restart Race, which all of us have used. Nobody is forcing us to use it.

Using a rewind feature, would make replacing parts a useless feature after an accident.

Yeah, but do they have a rewind button? No.
This thread has dragged on WAY too long. 👎
Tell me about it.

How does it make you a worse driver if you don't use it?

If it is in the game, then let there be an option to turn it off or on... and to let us know who uses it during replay.... at least then you can see who really just tried it all at one without going back and trying a sector or a whole lap....
But the Rewind feature should be in the replay mode... since the game has had the fast forward thing.. how about a rewind??

You have to restrain yourself from using an option in a game? Wow....
Except you keep forgetting that it is up to the player if he CHOOSES to use it.
You don't have cheat in video games, but they're still there, and done by freewill. A rewind feature is no different. It's there, but only activated by you. If you never press it, it'll never rewind the game.
I am right. Don't use it if you want to have your desired game. Nobody will ever force you to use it. Forza 3 doesn't even bring up the option if you turn off the message, so you can easily wreck and forget about it.
So, what do you care if they use it? It doesn't affect your game, and their lap times aren't certified, so again, why do you care? You don't have to use it in your game, it isn't forced upon you.
Bull. Crap. You honestly believe that every punter, every dirty player is somebody new to the game?
Even a new player knows not to turn into the side of somebody going down a straightaway. These people are not all newbies, they are jackasses looking to ruin everyone's fun online.
Learn reading comprehension and context, we were talking about GT5 the whole time, even the thread title says GT5. Stop trying to get out of it, you owe me a playseat, and the one with the shifter add-on if you're feeling extra generous please. 👍First off, you didn't say GT5 so "the" can be read as the GT game as in the series.
But barring that, still sorry... DLC... patches... I still have forever. Even after Kaz dies we might find a way to clone him from DNA, he might then go back and program that one last thing in to GT5... sorry... you give me forever, you then have to contend with anything... time travel, cloning... who knows what. I got a freebie
Don't worry, I still have to wait for it to happen to make you pay up... but you never get to make me pay up

That is crazy. B spec is much more of an aid then rewind. You don't even drive the car in b spec. The only thing worse then B spec is EA letting you pay real money to unlock cars instead of doing it in game.
Maybe your being sarcastic and I didn't pick it up, but really B spec is fine compared to rewind. B spec almost ruined GT 4 for me. Once I used it for a long race, it was really hard not to use it for all of them. I hope that they let you disable B spec when you first start your career, and only let you use it if you start completely over.
I really don't see the problem with rewind. If you don't like it, don't use it. I would much, much rather have rewind then B spec.

Oh man, threads like this really show how low some people drop when something foreign is introduced into their field of view.
I mean, for a forum that prides itself in being a reliable and friendly source for GT fans to come together, a lot of you don't seem to realize that new things aren't necessarily going to ruin your precious franchise. You guys complain that GT doesn't have enough features to keep up with other modern racers, but when asked if some should be included (not even forced), you guys push away everything and fall back on your fancy large colorful fonts and cruddy image macros trying to be all "cool" and stuff.
It wouldn't kill you guys to have something new. GT will always be GT, with exorbitant amounts of cars, a wide variety of courses, and graphics to kill for, but you guys seem to want it to only be that. New features won't remove the old ones, guys. Grow up and realize this.

And you must be here to ruin everyone's fun on here and discredit everyone's Opinion on Style of play, Driving Style, and willingness not to have something in the game which would only bring down it's credibility as the best Racing Sim on any console.
Frankly McLaren your opinions dissapoint me and simply is a fuItile attempt to make us all see that your practical yet utterly pointless views are waisted here. The simple fact is and what everyone here is saying is that it is not needed in GT5 or any future GT Series.
I never used the photo option in GT4 because I thought it took up too much memory on the game disc(and my memory card) which took away from making it even better than it is right now.
I'm not saying that if it is there then you must use or ignore it if it is not your preference, but the majority of people that play GT dont want it in the game at all and never will want it.
Stop re-posting everyone's quote McLaren and come up with something other than fighting down everyone's views.

Question to all who are afraid of the rewind feature:
Have you played any game with rewind a reasonable amount yet?
By this I mean more than just "a few plays to see what it's all about and maybe see this ridiculous rewind feature" kind of plays, but actually play it seriously and see how rewind ends up effecting you?
Becaues having played quite a bit with rewind now I can say many of the fears here are unfounded.
Just becase you have it does NOT mean you WILL use it. Just like having cosmetic damage and AT transmission available does not mean you use them.
Learning a course is not about only one corner at a time. I agree, but that's the beauty of rewind, you rewind back far enough that you are back on confident ground, then take it from there. For instance if you have problems with a turn with few braking markers and a blind hill, you would rewind back to the first previous straight, to a point on that straight you can already get to easily and confidently. No need to practice what's before that because you can get there easily, now just focus on the part you have trouble with.
It's not realistic, real drivers don't get to rewind. No, and when a real driver fails out of a race, they don't get to do it again for a better finish... it's done. No pause restart. Real drivers don't get to see their cars from behind using a chase cam while racing or a bumper cam. Things that are forced on you in a sim should be as realistic as is feasible, options, obviously are there for convenience and enjoyability.
Rewind will make GT a joke/we will look bad/no one will take use seriously anymore! Who are you worried about anyway? You? If you can't stay off the rewind button, that's no ones fault but yours, so if you think that makes you look bad, you have no one to blame but yourself and it only looks like what it really is. Lap times should obviously be marked that they were done with rewind, but outside of that what exactly are people worried about?
It's like I said before, are you worried that just because you stay in a hotel that has porn on pay per view everyone will suddenly think you are a porn addict?
If you hate porn and don't want to see it, is staying in a hotel with porn available going to be any different for you than one that doesn't have it? No... you won't be seeing it anyway...
