So, Is the DLC actually released yet or are you fellas still bickering over the HSV's engine note?

People are basing their arguments on the preview cruise. While it provides a strong indication, it does not do it full justice.
 
That thought also crossed my mind but I suppose that there must be something that prevents them for having authentic sounds in GT5.

Technology wise, no. The audio of vehicles are just digital samples, you could theoretically replace them with any sound you like and they're at a high enough quality that digital compression shouldn't be an issue. There is also plenty of space on a Blu-Ray disc.

It's all down to how they record the samples from the real car and then how they manipulate them in the game. Somewhere they're going very wrong in that process. But again that isn't even the case here, here it's clear that if they did take microphones and record a HSV we're not hearing it, we're hearing a sample from another car.

Whilst true we've not heard it at the high end the base sample is not going to magically change. It's still completely wrong.
 
I see that SimonK has done his very best to turn a thread into a bitter fued.

Don't you every stop complaining. You don't like the DLC, don't buy it. Don't like GT5 then sell it. Don't like the fact that there are people that actually like GT5....Well thats just tough.

Noone has forced anything regarding GT5 on you. The only thing thats forced is that we have to sit here and listen to you constantly bitching a thousand times over.

Give us all a break and just disappear will you. 4k posts on and the level of pettiness from you is getting boring.
 
Right now, we can see before us everything that is wrong with the GT5 forum.

Which is what, exactly? Please don't say those that post negative opinions because that isn't the problem. The problem is those that want to rid the forum of said negative opinions.

I did nothing of the sort. The people that turned it into a feud were those that couldn't deal with negative comments. Don't like what i'm posting? Put me on ignore, I don't care. I will still continue to post what I think about things though, as I'm entitled to.

Ahh wrong.. No one forces you to read what he says, so therefore dont read it, simple.

It's generally the over-defending of the game and the over-criticism of the game, in other words, both sides of the argument.

Some people do make GT5 to be way too much than it is. But at the same time, a lot hit it down a bit too hard.

It's why I don't get involved in stuff like this. I'm neutral with GT5, personally.

👍

One thing I can say in absolute certainty is that I enjoy playing it a hell of a lot more than I enjoy talking about it.

Why don't you like talking about it? That's the idea of a forum.
Don't be shy or embarrassed.

Wrong, I can pu him on ignore but you can guarantee that someone will quote him.

The guy tries to turn every single thread into an argument and as C-ZETA pointed out, a GT5 defender will always bite. He turns entire threads, pages at a time (even ones with good idea's) into cluster****s

Someone with genuine complaints are a good thing, he just acts like a stealth troll.

Attack the post not the poster.
 
Was I the first person in this thread to post disappointment at the sound of the HSV? I thought not.

You can't have an argument with one person, it's not my problem there are people here who can't read negative opinions without responding to it.

No one forces you to read the quote. See his name at the top of the quote, scroll to the next post. Simple.

Holy crap, you can't say anything without being cross-examined can you? :sly: ....I said I enjoy playing it more. :P
 
...Right. So on that bombshell...

...does anyone have so much of a clue as to where the DLC is? I'm in the UK, I understand it updates at 4 or 5pm but I dunno.

Oh right. I enjoy talking about it more myself.
 
No you weren't Simon but yet again you are the one who is dedicated to to turn the thread on its head.

Muslim extremists would give up their cause long before you will stop your one man's quest to undermine everything to do with GT5

Has it been confirmed for SCEE regions for today as the store doesn't normally update till a wednesday.

If it is today, it will be about 5pm GMT
 
*Chuckles again* Well. I had my look at this thread again and *Chuckles* is it something for one to enjoy when somebody has a sad day.

If some of you are complaining about the sound and thinking people are telling you you shouldn't have gain to much hope for the HSV's sounds in the first place, and thinking people are defending PD for it, then you must be mad. :dopey:

For me I wasn't defending PD for the HSV's sounds. I just knew they will screw up, that is all. :sly:

No I'm not. I want GT to suceed and get better, I wouldn't be sat here on this forum if I didn't. There are plenty of other franchises I've lost faith/interest in and left them alone, Final Fantasy for example. The last few games have been so poor I really have no desire to go onto a forum for it and post what I'd like to be different. For GT though it's different, I grew up on it like most of you did, I bought a PS3 for it specially like many people did and now at this point in time I just hope PD can improve things. If me and others posting negative feedback on their work helps even slightly i'll continue to post it.

You don't speak for everyone.
 
I wonder what Honda thinks of the inaccurate sound? Hopefully they will push for an update.
 
All this defending & complaining. Guys, it's a video game. Not sure if y'all have noticed this, but holy crap drink some beer already.

Especially SimonK, he needs a brew badly.

Then maybe you should rethink about what you are posting and how you say it.

You complain about the same things in virtually every thread. We hear you, we get it. If you think though that its going to change to the kinda expectations you clearly had for the game 2 years after its release, you just have to let it go or send an e-mail to PD.
 
Okey... some words for those defending PD with all their love: I was on this side too.

And, after some months, I just started to see the truth: GT5 is a good game, yes it is. I play it almost daily, but it have flaws, some really bad ones. Still enjoyable, but the true is that it isn't PD's best job. Because of time, lack of personnel, whatever... they need to expand the team, open their minds a bit.

I expect all DLC and updates with my hopes up. I'm usually optimistic and I love PD work but this is just MADNESS.

MADNESS. Why they didn't took any V10 sample and put on the HSV? Anything V10-a-like would be better than what they did!

Only 3 cars... after all this time... only 3 cars!!!!! The HSV is cool. I like the idea of having the BRZ, but another racing GTR? That's ok. But give us MORE OPTIONS.

The DLC is weak. Really, really, really weak. We need variety, and that's an emergency.

I'm a huge PD supporter. I bought all DLC until now. I bought 10 paint packs... that's 20 dollars of paint. Why they can't give us better DLC? I would spend 50 dollars in cars and tracks if they give us better options. I would do this tomorrow.

Cmon. It's hard to understand. I just wanted someone to come and say: "hey, we are working hard on GT6, it'll be released in 2013, so hold on and bear with us, ok?"

How hard can it be? Thanks for the support, thanks for the updates but damn, talk with us!!!!!

So, you, that are defending PD... do it wisely. Because seriously, this time they did bad. Enough to make some diehard fans such as me and many others here, really upset. We were waiting for some good DLC after all those months... damn, it's sad.


Sorry for the long post, I really wanted to put that out.


Real fans aren't those who just praise and love everything that they put on our plate. Think about it.
