Should more pickups be featured in GT6

[uktopgear92]

I think we need some heavy-duty diesel and dually pickups.

 

[Earth]

About half a dozen would be enough IMO, same with SUVs

 

[Samus]

No, the ones they do already have need to be premium though.

Forza's slowest pickup is almost faster than all of ours

Sure, why not? I'm not one of those "NNNOOOOOO ONLY SUPERCARS AND RACECARS!!!" types. For me, the more (actually different) cars, the better.

 

[Doog]

Yes, definitely. We need at least 25 trucks, and at least 30 SUVs.

 

[BobbyBRAKEaNek]

Yes, definitely. We need at least 25 trucks, and at least 30 SUVs.

And wagons and shooting brakes.

 

[Doog]

And wagons and shooting brakes.

Indeed. And in addition to those, we need at least 10 Utes.

[thelvynau]

And the wish list starts.

 

[Zona]

Yes. They all have to be premium though.

 

[HarVee]

As long as they're all premium, I say, why not? The more diverse the car list is, the better.

👍

 

[avens]

Need something to tow racecars, since people want random malfunctions and punctures.

 

[IceMan PJN]

No.

Agreed.

How could anyone say no to this?:

 

[porthillking]

I think we need some heavy-duty diesel and dually pickups.

Yeah, why not.

 

[Exorcet]

They're raceable, they do race, they're underrepresented, and they're mostly RWD unlike FWD toasters. So why not.

 

[KiroKai]

2nd 👍
More car classes make it more interesting, especially if the differences in power and weight are big. Online needs to sort the classes better then though. It's enough that in GT5 every shuffle race with a Range Rover Concept turns into a survival fight already.

I'd prefer some SUVs and wagons over pickups though. They are heavy cars too but they look better.

I honestly don't care which or how many types of automobile or racing series are added to the game, as long as there are plenty of events to compete in with them.

But don't give me 30 trucks, and just one stinkin' 3 race Truck Race event with 2 laps per race that's gonna take me 1 truck and 5 minutes to do. That's just a waste

Yes, definitely. We need at least 25 trucks, and at least 30 SUVs.

I'd settle for about 5 trucks and 10 SUV's though, given that they're chosen rightly, that Lamborghini LM002 is a must, as is a current Range Rover and Mercedes G55 AMG (probably quite a few more I can't think of right now, these are the ones that I really want).

Maybe I'm strange but the events available in the game have absolutely no effect on whether I make use of a vehicle, if I like it I'll find a use for it no matter what (by which I mean I'll drive them anyway without them being significant other than providing me driving pleasure), so any addition with no merit at all for the purpose of game progression isn't regarded by me as a waste at all.

That's not saying I wouldn't like all cars to be useful in A-Spec races or at least the vast majority (or that the entire A-Spec doesn't need a complete overhaul) but it isn't a strict (or any) requirement for me to appreciate the cars themselves.

Furthermore, I hardly use A-Spec anymore after completing it.

 

[HKS racer]

No.

I second that.

Yes and no. Most generally no, the event selection doesn't matter, free running a vehicle is valid. However if you don't play online and like to progress in GT Mode, it might be a problem.

I really hope that PD allows us to create races and championships online and offline in GT6.

An event generator would solve a lot and seems a relatively easy thing to implement and I didn't mean that events in general shouldn't be as diverse (and significant) as the variety of cars on offer.

But even when it isn't (like it currently is) I still enjoy the cars for what they offer, even when they are useless for progress.
The events included are mostly mindnumbingly dull anyway (and always have been like that for the most part to be honest) as even in GT4, without online, I still enjoyed driving a lot of cars without racing them.
I'd prefer a more comprehensive course maker tool offering more options and themes over more A-Spec events right now to be honest.

But some might indeed only think of the cars included as racing tools foremost which must have a use as otherwise they shouldn't have even bothered including them, I'm not one of them though.

I actually agree with your stance. GT Mode is a speed bump toward online in my eyes. I was just trying to give another point of view.

I've spent hours at online track days driving cars that have been neglected in GT Mode, and it's some of the best fun I've had.

Don't get me wrong, I'll still use the vehicles on free runs and what not. When I say waste, I mean a waste due to a lack of potentially good events, not the vehicles themselves. I just like a decent event list to go through, it gives me a sense of progression.

Ah, I see.

Okay, sorry for misunderstanding then, thought you indeed meant the cars might as well not have been included but you meant a wasted opportunity.
That I'll agree with though, it's not just the A-Spec events but I'm even more surprised that PD doesn't make more use of the Seasonal Events to include the less obvious or often overlooked cars, instead a lot of it is nothing more than a carbon copy online A-Spec with better rewards.

 

[Gejabo]

No, thank you.

 

[Antonisbob]

I wanna go Four byin' in them! Yeah man for sure!

I second that. Even with the given amount of cars there are a lot of themes possible to make usage of all kind of stars and melons. Its' more a question of creativity-lag from PD not to utilize more of the oddities.

But if your're in the lucky position of being in a online community which honours all the possibilities to combine the car-portfolio, I would never say no to any addition in variety.
