Safe to assume any talk of VGT's being released will coincide with when the seasonals update next wouldn't you think ? Or perhaps other dates when the seasonals come up.

All I really want is the GPS course maker.
Here's my theory.
We saw a promo video for it just released. Yes it was produced a while ago, but so was the idea that it'd be in the game.

Ok it's not coming but that would truly make me excited, so far it's cool to keep getting updates and all but nothing near as innovative as a GPS course maker would be. It'd be one of the best edges when it's up against all the current gen games.

GPS Course Maker was not teased, just the Course Maker in general. Per the website, we'll get the standard Course Maker first, then the GPS feature will come later. Remember those are two separate things.
 
With all the details coming out lately, it looks like we will get update 1.16 before March begins. Will be interesting to see.

maybe but we've had details for the past few weeks now they can hold that update until early March and keep announcing new stuff. (I have high hopes, too high for my own good) haha

You mean to tell me this isn't a tease for the GPS feature.
But yeah I figured that'd be case though at this point I don't think it'll happen in the GT6 days.

It doesn't count as a tease, it wasn't released by Sony or PD, it also is well out of date, so it's fair to say it was never intended for release this late. All it tells us is PD intended for there to be a course maker... but we all already knew that.
 
I think the 1.16 was initially planned to be released on tuesday, but the 4.70 firmware (or other unknown reason) slowed the process

I suppose that's why (almost) all non-English sites have been updated with the B-Spec information on that day (+ the 'early' announcement of Midfield Raceway)
 
Just out of curiousity, when does the press release comes out from PD that there is an update. Does it come out at the same time the game is updated, or hours before? Thanks.

The downtime notification comes out a day before. It's pushed directly to your game's News section, so if you're not on GTP or the GT website then that's how you'll know.

A day before? I have never saw a notice until after the game is updated.
 
Thanks everyone. I am recovering from hernia surgery today and was resting all day. I was hoping to see what time the press release comes out to see what the official list of features are.

I am really excited that there is some progress with new/originally promised being added. I am setting my expectations low with what the update will have, even though so much has been talked about. Besides Midfield, B-Spec is where I have the most curiousity as I do enjoy the mode.

Crap. Seasonals were just updated. Does that rule out the possibility of an update tomorrow? :(
Nope. There doesn't have to be any VGT's included with an update and Midfield doesn't have to have a seasonal straight away.
