Nenkai (X/Twitter): Kaz is cooking

[TumeK5]

what if Nenkai's tweet wasn't about GT7?

Ah yes, the final GT Sport update before shutdown.

The plot twist.

Then the GT4 players are gonna be well happy

Tommorow....

Tommorow....

I wouldn't count on it. This is feeling like another "early next month" ordeal to me.

 

[RobertHammer]

well nobody said it would be this month , so it can be anytime

 

[Famine]

With the virtual hype building the only thing they could deliver to match it would 4 dimensional gaming in holodecks onboard the starship enterprise

Yet PD hasn't hyped anything, or even mentioned any update... all this expectation is coming from, I'm sure well-meaning, a Tweet by an external party. As I mentioned earlier:

I know right? How dare he not live up to the expectations for this update set by someone that's not him!

As an aside I'm kind of tired and when I glanced at the thread title on the forum overview on my phone I briefly thought it said "Hentai x Twitter" and half-panicked thinking a porny spambot had got through.

Well, the buns are in the oven at least! Unspecified cooking time.

Hard to really parse what “cooking” or “big update” could mean when none of GT7’s updates have been terribly massive - the only ones that stand out to me are the endurance mission expansion or the VR2+Sophy test. There hasn’t been more than 5 cars or 1 track location in a single update (GT Sport has had 12 and 2 on that part, respectively).

So “big” could mean 7+ cars. It could mean 2 track locations (maybe we haven’t gotten a track in a while because one took longer than planned). New mission expansion? Additional campaign component? Massive new customization parts/livery pack? Sophy implementation? Expansion of features that’ve otherwise been mostly untouched? The only thing that’s been predictable about GT7’s post-launch support has been it’s unpredictability.

I’ve always been curious about what happened to all the development that went into GT6’s Course Maker and how much bigger it could be on PS4 and now PS5. Maybe they’ve been trying to get that going in the background all this time, never speaking on it after learning they’re lesson of over-promising in the PS3 era?

I’m only willing to anticipate a larger-than-usual car drop and maybe two tracks honestly.

In this case I think biggest would refer to a feature that’s bigger than what the game has gotten previously. Something like B-Spec or in that ballpark. I doubt we’ll see more than the usual 3-4 cars and possibly a new circuit. If they add several cars this time, then we’ll likely have to wait until mid-December for the next batch.

 

[05XR8]

Can’t wait to read all the posts of terror when I wake up.

Disappointed.

 

[Astro_BS-AS]

Disappointed.

You woke up one Day early.....

It’s 5AM in Tokyo.

Nooooooooooo....

 

[Ande3200]

Still a chance to see silhouttes tomorrow, i think some of reason why gt sport had more cars in the updates was becouse many of those was returning premiums while gt7 most of time has been brand new cars for the series, gt sport didin’t either have customize option and upgrade parts that has an effect on how the cars react on each part, the update could be pushed to early next month like we saw With august update

 

[05XR8]

Well, if it's pushed to next month, there are a few content possibilities.

Final race for Super GT is November 4-5, at Motegi Mobility Resort. That would give PD enough time to add the three current GT500 cars and write up the championship winner. The possible addition of Motegi circuit(s) and maybe a bonus GT500 Civic Concept.

Last time I glanced at the GT World Series final, it read TBA(maybe that's changed?).
Anyway, with a nonsensical broad sweep of thought, could be anything.

I obviously don't know, but I can't see the course maker working in an online-centric game. Each course would need to be uploaded like liveries and I can't imagine that would be very easy to manage or deal with effectively...

I mean, anything's possible, but whether they see that as worthwhile I don't know.

That said, imagine the current AI on a procedurally generated course? No way would that end well 😂

 

[Nakano219]

Kaz posts the silhouettes on a Sunday often enough that I'm still fairly confident the update is on normal schedule. I think it was about a third of them in GT7 era that have been posted midnight UTC, the Sunday before or later.

 

[C_Raccoon23]

I just want to remind everyone that for the April update, Kaz posted the silhouettes on a Tuesday, and the update came that same week. So he can wait until the last possible moment to post them if he wants.

Maybe it will be the same for this update. He makes us tremble 🤣

 

[RaY29rus]

I believe silhouettes posts on sunday are about as normal as saturday, so there's no reason to worry yet.
Not like a postpone of a game's update is ever a reason to worry, though.

Something tell me that it would be the same this time, pretty sure they are aware of Nenkai tweet.

 

[Rangeraus]

F5... F5... F5...

For what it's worth, there have been 7 content updates this year, of those Kaz has posted the silhouettes on social media on a Friday (1 time), Saturday (4 times), Sunday (1 time) and Tuesday (1 time).

But also, PD have set zero expectations for this update, for all we know there may not be one this month.

This will be my last post in this thread;

In over a year and a half, my only goal was to attempt to fill a gap in communication in the most sensible manner as possible, which so far - the vast majority of the community acknowledges and respects - except for a low number of people which has included you. If anything it's not something I've built over one night.

I've always expected skepticism and am fine with it, but given my expercience and past history here it has consistently made feel like you did not like what I was doing and wished for it to be wrong only because you do not possess said information. It would line up with the idea that raw leaks are willingly being allowed to flow around here, but when it comes to me making an announcement it has always felt like some attempts are made to tone it down.

I don't even mind it, but honestly thought I'd come clean here.

That's quite the ludicrous claim mate.

I don't think Famine was attacking you

 

[05XR8]

Yeah, I’m not seeing an attack at any time twitter posts were made. I think Famine been moreso addressing many posts(mine included) to quell expectationswhen where no real information has been given. Especially the recent post.
Those of us participating in speculation, hopes, wishes, off-the-wall theories, ”crowd control” , etc. and just plain banter, are just filling in the time until actual information is posted by Kaz.

To me, it ain’t that serious.
