Not wanting to play GT5 after the demo

[maciej908]

Since playing the demo and completing all the trials and races, I realised I no longer wanted to play GT5. In a few short hours I've grown accustomed to the new physics model, better graphics and better lighting of the game. Shame the demo offers only 3 cars at the moment, I'm hoping for the Deltawing race that unlocks after the qualifiers, as I'd play it a lot more. 💡

Anyone feels the same way?

I've not wanted to play GT5 anymore before the demo even

I went back to playing GT5 earlier this morning after playing the demo and to be honest, I still don't mind playing it as the differences for me aren't that big. Yes, there are small differences in how the game feels, but for me the changes seem to be mostly cosmetic e.g suspension roll and jagged edges etc.
But like I said, it's just me - it's also worth bearing in mind that I play using a DS3, so it's quite likely i'm missing out on various physical changes to the game.

I was playing GT5 today, and it's still enjoyable, however, I had to put back the stock suspension on every car so I can feel the body roll and weight a bit more. It didn't make a difference though. Cars still feel too stiff.

Do I want to continue playing GT5? Not really. But I don't have a choice until GT6 is released. Playing the demo for the next six months or so is not really an option.

The only driving I have done in GT5 for at least the past year are the seasonal events and I will continue to do them as long as PD offers them.
The locked event is the Nissan GT-R NISMO GT3 N24 Schulze Motorsport '13 in a time trial. It is a real nice car to drive. Sorry, no Deltawing.

GT5 hasn't interested me much for about a year, and it's because the game never became what I wanted it to be.

I had the exact same feeling after my first eight hours with the demo on Tuesday. I told myself not to be so silly but it took me until yesterday before I finally did go back onto GT5.

It didn't feel as bad as I thought it would after playing GT6 - I'm definitely back on the demo again later today tough.

 

[Tenacious D]

I almost feel the same way. The new physics grew on me over the course of those trials, and the GT-R is tangibly different. GT5 does feel like a step back now, almost like going back to Prologue, and I'm pretty hungry for the full game.

 

[Bluntified]

The GT-R feels like it has a lot of rear wheel distribution, you can slide it all over the place with it. I kinda like it, has more life in it.

 

[iiWeenie_]

i still feel like playing GT5, lets just hope we can see endless customisation to cars in GT6, thats the downside of GT5

That is probably because it is rear biased by default in sport and track modes, it wallows a bit under slaloms like the esses on Silverstone, but man it feels absolutely sublime and the grip loss feels better now that sport tires feel much like road tires in their gradual grip loss. I wonder if the grip loss will become more acute when you have low tire to rim ratio as it should since you have less flex and give and will reach the limit more suddenly than usual?

I haven't actually played GT5 in a week or more, but I will one day to see the difference in the physics, which I know there is a definite change. GT6 gives you so much more feedback than GT5 did, I was impressed with how the car felt as I could trail brake so much more often and with ease because I could actually see how much the car was beginning to understeer. GT6 is going to be epic people, can't wait to tear up online lobbies and no more stupendous grippy Race tires anymore.

This,but getting a new 3D ready tv recently has changed my mind...

 

[MeanElf]

...can't wait to tear up online lobbies and no more stupendous grippy Race tires anymore.

well, I'm sure they'll still be there - I do hope that they get included in the PP calculations like they did with GT5 - that should stop people fitting them by default online.

 

[KWZX10]

Well, i wasn't a big fan of the 370z in gt5 and now i'm having a lot of fun with it.
Not even going to try on gt5 that car again. The other cars though...haven't tried them with the new physic yet, so it's a different story, i can still drive them for now. After gt6, probably not.

edit: same for the gtr, (kaz will kill me for forgetting about it)

 

[SavageEvil]

Considering they have a new tire model provided by data from Yokohama, racing tires should be wholly realistic and without the super grip of tires in GT5. I highly doubt they'd leave the Racing tires grippy and not improve them like they did with the other tires.

I'd feel the same way if the GT Academy demo let us choose our tires, had the cars that the E3 demo had and gave us a Free Run mode. I'm still going back to GT5 for the course maker tracks and practicing drifting (yes, I know it's just a game, jeez!). It never gets old.

 

[Kobooi]

Pretend that the GT6 demo was actually a FM5 demo. That way the physics of GT5 are perfect again.

FM5's going to have time change (and possibly weather) for Silverstone?

Isn't it all just about physics and setting that perfect lap time, and everything else is irrelevant?

This.

I haven't touched my PS3 in over 3 months easily.

 

[Stephanos82]

+1 ! Don't wanna touch gt5 either anymore! But I do wanna play f4 instead and I'm upset for Microsoft not having corrected the wheel issues yet!

 

[another_jakhole]

But aren't YOU concluding from the demo that GT6's final physics build will be only just as good as FM4? If that's the case (and it turns out to be true, much to the chagrin of PD ), why wouldn't I bring up the next best thing which is the other reality? The earth revolves and has changing conditions.

 

[Kobooi]

It's no coincidence that your next best thing is a feature not provided by FM. But I can count the times GT5 has thrown rain races or night races at me on one hand, which was all for the better in the end because the AI in the rain was even worse than the AI in normal conditions, and at night I was only provided with romantic dinner table candlelight on the road in front of me.

I haven't played the demo but I kinda feel the same way.

 

[Nomadpt1]

same here. Now I'm playing only counter strike but only on PC

 

[FoRiZon]

Nope. I play until fully fledged GT6 arrives. 1 New Circuit and 1 "not so new" car doesn't move me.
The new physics and tessalation thingy only there to be compared to GT5.

Wait, Deltawing is Nissan right. Kinda disappointing since its an nissan sponsored demo and all we get for the last event is the GT3 Schulze GTR which is theoretically no different than the other GTR Schulze's.

Are you saying that the Deltawing is the same as the GTR?

 

[FoRiZon]

Whoooops. Misunderstanding.
I mean the schulze GT3, not the deltawing
Sorry, edited.

 

[gtracedriver1]

That is normal. After GT6 I think very few will go back to GT5.

Not sure if trolling or stupid

 

[smskeeter23]

Once I've decided I have reached my absolute limit in the TT I will go back to GT5. Maybe before then even just for something different but for now it isn't on my radar.
