I wouldn't agree
there are rumors about "dataminer" finding ts020 which is coming to gt game...and there are also rumors "forza developer confirmed"..company paid alot for ts020 to not be included in gt game/ forza exclusive)
I don't know which one is true..but both can be correct or very very wrong

How can you be so sure of the TS020 not coming to GT though? Like, maybe share your opinion as to why, and maybe we can understand it better....? Because all you've mentioned are rumours and didn't really go into detail of those rumours, or you just spew the words "its not coming to GT" in all caps lol

I don't love the Purosangue, but I respect it more than the Urus. Whereas the Urus is effectively a Q7/Cayenne/Tourag with a corporate engine, at least the Purosangue has the V12 and is on a bespoke platform. The 612 (the last pure/classic GT Ferrari) was a wonderful thing (IMO) but I can't see that car finding any buyers in today's market so the Purosangue kind of makes sense. For me it still does dent the Ferrari halo a bit - it's a model that's designed quite explicitly to bring new buyers to Ferrari and to expand production volume, two things that are the antithesis to such an exclusive nameplate. They are wisely capping overall production to 15k cars a year (I bet there are some vocal shareholders who want to throw in a V8 base model, price it at $200k, and sell 50k+ per year) so as to not fully dilute the brand, but the Ferrari of today is as laser focused on it's own stock price as Enzo Ferrari was on motorsports. All that said, I have no desire to see the Purosangue in a GT title when so many other Ferraris are absent. I'll take literally every other 4-seat Ferrari before that one. Would LOVE to see the 456GT in GT7.

Don't project your hurt feelings on me LOL.
I haven't posted in a Prediction Thread since September 2023.... Additionally, it wasn't since July of 2023 that I forecasted "disappointment" as the result for a monthly update. You may be referring to other threads where I've expressed non-positive feelings about aspects of the game but there are plenty of threads where I've expressed measured levels of optimism, excitement and enjoyment.
Do us both a favor if you can't handle a snide/half-serious remark here or there. Put me on your ignore list, that way you don't have to see it.

That’s a lot of words for someone who’s having hurt feelings “projected onto them”Don't project your hurt feelings on me LOL.

Well, I wanted the satisfaction of thoroughly pointing out how wrong you were. And I figured you wouldn't put me on your ignore list because you want something else to cry about lol. I checked your post history, you're a White Knight for PD/Kaz, it's your thing. I get it, I don't shame others for their deviant interests lol.

Ah!!! The old, "I know you are but what am I?" tactic. Used when someone has no point to make but their ego won't let them admit they were wrong. Timeless!

With all due respect, since I admire both TheAdmiester and GTPlanet work, Mario Soler only talked about a leak found first in Discord and then in this forum. And he honestly spoke in a very respectful way. He was a bit hyped but yeah, it's the GT-One we're talking about. Same hype that made TheAdmiester revealed the car, and I totally understand the reason why he did.
Mario's been a hardcore GT fan for years like many of us. I myself signed up here before Gran Turismo 5 release, many years ago, looking for leaks and rumours about the game, since Polyphony communication towards his fanbase has always been lacking. So his video towards his small, niche Spanish speaking GT community is in essence far from different to any work doing here.
Furthermore, I know how sensitive some information could be, for sure. You don't need to be the sharpest clubman out there to know that. However, this automotive brand getting mad argument is just too much for a 7K views video, imho. It just seems like the legit spread of info slightly out of this circle just upset some of you. And I think being this secretive with relevant info is a bit nonsense coming from a niche community forum and discord server. The balance between risking data mining access and keeping the community out of relevant info imho should be a bit more... easy-going. Specially when revealing this kind of important car to the GT fanbase.
Even if Polyphony fixed the data leak, I wouldn't blame the GT community for hyping tbh. They just need to step up communication with its fanbase.
I hope I was as respectful as possible, love both of you TheAdmiester and GTPlanet work. Cheers!

I don't recall @TheAdmiester overtly revealing anything. Well, on here anyway - there was a mention of a car that a lot of fans would like, but I don't remember anything more identifying.
Weirdly, it has actually happened before.
I had a big, long post typed out about how car brands have all this specific, tied-in advertising lined up to be timed alongside either the general release of information or their own agreed-upon timings, and how journalist embargoes tie into that, and so on, but I felt it might be a bit dull. In essence though, yeah, PRs get big mad if they're info-gazumped because part of the circle can't control the information properly. Big mad.
I know of one case where one brand just won't do any games any more because they can't trust things will stay under wraps for their ad-spend on it (can't say which brand, or which game annoyed them; privileged info is almost as irritating as embargoes!) without leaking out and it's just not worth their time going through the whole process. There may be others, but I couldn't say; I know some other brands have similar reservations, but haven't reacted quite so strongly.
So... not really. It's not our job to do any game developer's job for them when it comes to keeping their secrets.
I personally don't really care if the people who have the information and don't have an embargo to abide by (as I often do - although I also usually can't say if I do when I do, so don't take that as me saying that I do in this particular instance!) make posts or videos or whatever about it, and there's nothing in our AUP about not doing it on here either. That's why we don't police posts about datamines, or leaks, or anything similar.
Pretty much the only annoyance I have with leaks and things is when I do have an embargo and the information on the forum is legit but I can't comment on it... or at least not directly!
However, that's just frustration at being shackled, and not irritation with those posting the info.

Harry Metcalf is pretty much the authoritative automotive journalist and founder of Evo magazine. He considers the Purosangue the ultimate GT and best way to experience the Ferrari V12. Precisely because it's long-legged and comfortable - while still having the dynamics of a sporting GT. The latest range of performance SUV's are replacements for the sports saloons and estates of old. Not a repurposed off-road vehicle with performance to spare. As for the Urus, I don't particularly like the design, then again I'm not a fan of most modern Lamborghini's. As a driving machine it will show a clean pair of heels to most performance cars - even on track.
You have to be careful comparing cars from different eras due to factors such as tyre technology and race reliability. In the Group C era the Nissan R90CK qualified in 3.27 - during the race it ran 10+ seconds per lap slower. In '99 the Toyota GT-ONE sat on pole with a 3.29 pole - and ran race laps some 5-10 seconds slower. Today's Hypercars qualify around 3.24 - but can run within a few seconds of that time (consistently) during the race.
In GT7 all cars run on the same tyres and there are no reliability worries - so there are many variables compared to running in period.
PD's record suggests we'll get one track at the start of the year and one at the end. That being the case I'd expect one by May.
I'd also like to see PD update some tracks with the latest signage and/or configurations.
