Apricot Hill or Midfield raceway 🙏

Red Rock Valley, 1v1 me

El Capitan man...

Sadly we'll only get one track if we get one

But if we get two, woof. Biiiig update

Red Rock Valley, 1v1 me

Yea this track has been datamined long ago

 

[HarVee]

Screw Red Rock Valley or El Capitan. Seattle is where it's at, and Seattle (or something like it) is what the game needs. Another City track with tight turns, not another 'race' track or mountainous track.

As much as I'd like to see Seattle, I wish there was suspension damage from jumps, otherwise that section will be pretty comical.

But other than that nitpick, I love Seattle. Would be the perfect place to take all these V8s we got for a spin.

Well, I mean, that's kind of the idea behind it. GT takes itself too seriously, Seattle was a track which was quite comedic. Seattle would be a rather different inclusion. But I don't see it happening. City tracks in general are seemingly getting the middle finger from PD because they take 'too long' to develop and aren't very eSports friendly.

My insider* tells me that they were planning Seattle for a return but, due to a typo at the travel agents, the locale modelling team accidentally ended up in Settle - which is how we got the Ribblehead Viaduct as a Scapes location:

Looking forward to a track there.


*That's the voice in my head, not a PD insider

If they bring back Citta di Aria I will explode

Was is the key word, GT is more and more like a simulator today, with track limits and penalties and everything.

If we got Tahiti Road, you'd have to avoid the edges of the track because of the lack of grip and because of the dirt you'd get on your tires

Doesn't mean you can't have the occasional oddball content. I mean we got an ambulance after all.

I know, but I think the comical tracks will be leaning more towards dirt tracks. Or then we get super short tracks like Kyoto Miyabi

 

[HarVee]

Well, if they have to be restricted to dirt tracks, how likely do you think Toscana, Eiger, or Smokey Mountain will make a return?

Why not GT2 dirt tracks, like Green Forest?

 

[HarVee]

Had to actually look that track up. That alone tells the answer to your question...

If I have to actually look up a track, then to me it's a forgettable track ...which is probably why it got dumped.

 

[TumeK5]

That'd fill the role of a comical track as well, with the ridiculously high jumps.

It would certainly fit in with PD's idea that every dirt track needs to have jumps.

Then there's always Tahiti Dirt Route, with that one straight filled with crests

But in all seriousness, I could see that track returning, if we get any more rally.

Imagine if the suspension physics were still like day 1 and we had Seattle! 😂

 

[bduddy]

Just give increased custom race payout and everyone will be happy and not ever whine about events again

I'll truly never understand people that act like the entire point of playing a game is just to make a number go up and not, you know, to have new and interesting and challenging experiences. I guess this is why we're stuck in this F2P hell that most of gaming is today.

Because it can take a lot of credits to buy and upgrade cars for those "new and interesting and challenging experiences". The cost of setting up those experiences can quickly outstrip the credits you get back from custom races.

 

[A_Higher_Place]

Let me throw both of the Smokey Mountain configurations in the chat for a comeback! Big jumps in those too

 

[Raf997]

We have chances for 2 tracks only in a future Spec 2.0 update, may such be in this one? Let's wait Tuesday/Wednesday and we are going to figure it out

 

[kembro]

Here's hoping they've cooked up Pike's Peak, in all the versions, considering the licence🤞

I have no genuine desire to drive every car in this game . I get to play maybe two hours in one night. It would take me a year to drive every car , let alone to actually get to know it well enough. That and by the end I was done with Cafe I had like 60-70 cars.

so, now that the car silhouettes are out, what’s everyone angry about now..?

Checking X and facebook:
No modern GT3 cars, no Toyota GT one and "No KOegniSeggg"🤭🤭🤭

 

[GTboyz]

Apparently because the silhouettes contained 1 whooping electric car that people hate (and/or aNoTheR sKyliNe hurr durr..) instead of focusing on the other 5 that are fan favourite.

 

[Techlet]

Same. I have maybe 30 minutes to an hour to spare for GT7 in any given day so I'd rather have that time count towards my progress meaningfully.

This was an issue with the MC20 few months ago - almost forgotten in favor of the discourse regarding the Himedic.
