Q&A Forum Has Now Been Locked - Tell PD How You Feel About That!

[VBR]

The Q&A Forum has now been locked, due to Kaz & PD's ignorance of the arrangement (see Jordans post here). Please use this thread to give Kaz & PD some feedback as to how you feel about this sad state of affairs. I made it clear how I felt about this in the GT6 Meme's thread.

The Q&A Forum has now been locked, presumably due to Kaz & PD's willful ignorance of the whole arrangement. Please use this thread to give them some feedback as to how you feel about this sad state of affairs.

We already had a thread for this if I am not mistaken... also rather surprising to find one of the most negative people on this forum starting it I may add.

The other thread was simply asking why it had been locked, & @Jordan has already answered that with a thread that's pinned at the top of the Q&A Forum. This thread is in the "Feedback" forum & is specifically for us to give PD some feedback as to how we feel about the situation.

As for me being "one of the most negative people on this forum" as you put it, you must've missed this other thread of mine.

I am sad at the lack of communication.
There are many people who want GT to be the best and are more than willing to wait for new or promised features if we were told and have things explained.
These threads show a large following that want a great game and experience, there are many suggestions, ideas to improve and help move the game on, if Kaz or PD communicated they would get good and bad feedback but in a constructive way.
I personally would like to see this franchise get better and would like to shake the feeling that they have grabbed my money and ran.

I had great hopes for the forum I must admit. I missed out on the first couple of days being out of town but I dug right in when I got back and asked what I thought were insightful and polite questions relevant to the future of the series. One of them made the top ten and I was really looking forward to the answer. When detractors came around after only 2 or 3 weeks asking why questions weren't answered I cautioned patience and to let it run for a few weeks to build momentum. I thought the Reddit session and the Blog was a good start and it would continue from there.

I think it's a missed opportunity on PD's part to patch things up with the diehard fans who are feeling left out. Many PC devs are in constant contact with the fans and it is refreshing to see. No you don't get everything you want, that's not the purpose of communication, but to know that developers are listening and working on things that are important to the community, to me enhances the long term playability of a game. We are investing valuable free time here that could be invested in any game, and many people are unwilling to invest time into something that they are uncertain will continue to develop. The Q&A could have helped tremendously with all of that.

In a day and age when communication is both global and instantaneous with the push of a few buttons on a device in your pocket, there is simply no excuse for this. PD remains steadfastly stuck in 1999 while the rest of the world adopts new communication technology on the fly. I wish them the best of luck with this approach, clearly some diehard fans still have faith. If GT7 is good enough I suppose it won't matter much.

That's a shame that PD hasn't answered several questions, but it is also a shame that Q&A has been locked.

🤬-ing pathetic display of their concerns for the community on PD's part.

They had their chance, months, not weeks, MONTHS of time to do something more than an empty blog, and they blew it.

For Me, GT is mere filler until P.CARS now.

I say let's channel all this negative energy caused by the Kaz and his GT series, and focus on racing games where there aren't so many unanswered grievances.

If you're resigned to the fact that they aren't listening then the only purpose for this thread and any like it just exist for catharsis. Since many members have shown they're not capable of self-moderating when it comes to catharsis, this will only lead to invective-led bans.

So let's all save ourselves the effort, eh?
