đź‘Ť unless Yoshida has completely lost the plot i'd say it's confirmed.

Also karting fits with the driving school thing.

Do you think that also the 'chucking cars around stunt arenas' sentence makes sense? It seems more a toy stuff than a simulator..
Someone referred to Top Gear which I don't know... I know I know... shame on me...

Gokarts + rain = Endless fun.

Anybody ever done that in real life? Think it had to have been the most fun I've had driving anything in my life.

No, but I've done ice-go-karting, which was tons of fun as well, although the karts weren't the quickest. đź‘Ť
 
Big GT5 feature undisclosed?

HAHA

I think if they had enough time with this, i bet they had enough time with standard cockpit!
 
I was going to call fake on it, but it looks pretty legitimate to me. Obviously I am most excited about the inclusion of weather. Lets hope its as involved in the game as I had hoped.

I really doubt stunt arenas and go-karting are in GT5. If they are, then I can bet a lot of people will be pissed that PD did that instead of trying to get more Premium cars in.

Are you serious!? Every race driver worth his salt started in go karts.. Its where most of the greats started so why not you and I? I think karting would be an amazing addition. As for stunt arenas, i hope what is meant is something like a gymkhana area ala GT 4 and Forza 3:

Well, even though I have my doubts, a track editor limited to go-kart track design (or gymkhana style stuff - big flat surface with some cones and obstacles) should be fairly (~) reasonable to develop for the game.

Anything beyond that sounds very implausible to me.

Oh Lord... Would you rather have 1000 premium cars, with the tracks from Prologue and no features? Because thats what we'd have ended up with if they focused all of their time on the car models. We'd have a very poor game that was nothing more than eye candy.
 
Something I just thought about.. what if these 'stunt arenas' are rally cross arenas? They already have rally cars in the game, it wouldn't be that big of a jump to have rally cross.
 
I never doubted that. :sly:
This game will be a monumental massacre with all the options it offers, it will have a HUGE life.
My track is already on paper and computer graphics for over a year.

I'm waiting for this track editor impatiently.:drool:

hope it's full, (entity, préfab and brush creat option, prescripted texte lines or not in option, weather option, sun position (a litle bit like Mod Nation Racer), possible try track with car for testing bugs etc...) And maybe can working on PC before and have a PS3 convertor track for put on PS3 for testing.

OMG it's so nice from P-D thank youuuuuuuuuuuu so much.đź‘Ťđź‘Ťđź‘Ť

Yeah I agree every driver started in go-karts...but that doesn't necessarily mean Kaz is going to include them...but I hope I'm wrong though.

THIS better be this way!

I'm going down on the weather right down, but I honestly would trade a track editor for 800 more cockpits.
And I couldn't care less about go-karting.

I don't think it was either or, lol. I'm more into tracks than interior views. ANd go karts, boy that will be awesome with my Driving force GT. Full FF xD

Exactly.

To anyone who did not get excited about this potentially being true... check your pulse.

If we get a track editor, there will be endless fun. Just imagine the possibilities for point to point rallying.đź‘Ť

When he says stunt arena he probably means Gymkhana or something similar. Why not?đź‘Ť

Go karts needs to be a no brainer. This is where so many racing drivers started. It makes perfect sense and am so glad to hear that it is in. If nothing else, it will be a great addition to license tests and the new driving school. đź‘Ť

Weather confirmed, kinda saw this coming, but it is great to hear from another reliable source. I cannot get the image out of my head of driving down the Nurburgring at night and it starts raining. Oh man:dopey:

@Jordan
By the way, I thought the same thing when I saw this. I figured they moved up the release of some info for strategic reasons.

In the end I'm just glad to hear about anything else. Everyone needs to stop being a broken record. "It" has been discussed.:)

How I can think about all of this if I will have "only" 200 cars?OK!Maybe weather.It's worth it.
 
I think, as many of you do, that this is epic news. I too was a bit dismayed by the 200 premium cars issue... but yesterday i booted up GT5P and had a realization. All i ever really drove (once i completed the game) was the Ferrari F40. It's a gorgeous car, and one of the more challenging cars available in the game. If GT5 give me another 10 'premium' cars like the F40... thats more than enough.

Furthermore, the fact that it now seems the time PD would have spent making all the cars 'premium' was spent implementing day/nice cycle, weather, and an ef'n track editor!!!!!!!!

WOW. Talk about their slogan, Play - Create - Share. Imagine the possibilities. There will be a huge GT5 community... in a years time i wouldn't be surprised if most major race tracks were reproduced in the editor by dedicated GT fans. Sure, quality will vary, but there will certainly be gems that emerge.

For people cracking on go-karts... you obviously know little of racing. 95% of professional racers started their careers as kids behind the wheel of karts. If you've never had the pleasure... find a weekend to hit a track in a real kart... its a hell of thing doing 60 miles per hour with your ass 2 inches off the tarmac.

This news is EPIC!!!
