Special Stage Route X 'Oval' is 30km in Length!

[evilKnoxville]

Drag Johnnie's will freak out - nice track; maybe I have missed something, but where is the harbour (day/night) which appears to be a different track then?

 

[another_jakhole]

From what we have seen of it the majority of the features are copied and pasted along the track.

18.6 miles

about only 4 pictures

You're completely awesome.

oh and the demo video of the straight. Which still doesn't account for most of the track.

 

[Crumpet]

Wish there was like, a big car park at the side, with an option to put cones and barriers down, in order to create a gymkhana style experience.


I think I spelt gym whatever wrong, I don't give a damn and nor should you, if you do, please PM me so I can laugh at you..

Did you see the NSX video that was a lot of scenery and what was a 10km straight not even the entire straight let one the entire track.

 

[Samus]

like? the whole other side your along a ship yard..
and i also noticed there's a block of barrier from another road halfway through the video =D

Well the track itself, the barriers, the lamps etc. We also don't know how big the shipping area is.

Also regarding paying PD for it remember this is a fictional track so there are no licence costs, just wages for the staff and I highly doubt they wouldn't be able to pay employees by giving away this track.

You got it right. I wish GT5 had an open car park, or an open space, like FM has. It's something I'm sure many people won't mind getting... in an update.

 

[HKS racer]

So no complex strings? WTF.

I thought we are driving the other way around so that we take left turns, not rights. Maybe it there is a Reverse Route X.

Anyway, It'll be epic with with time change. Imagine racing down the strip with a Fiat 500 in day time, going through the tunnel and ending up at night.

Well this kind of jokes are getting very old.
Imagine yourself bored before and after the tunnel.

 

[HeySumbode]

Holy crap I think I cried a little. Cannot wait for this track.

+1:tup:

You think it was PD that wanted to put a price tag on it?

 

[lowwatt]

There might be windmills near hills/mountains but not near the harbor of a big city (tokyo)

 

[Crumpet]

PD is full of surprises ^

 

[lowwatt]

i got to admit, yesterday i drove from western europe to eastern asia in 30 km

 

[daveydeez]

I'm sorry, but yawn..

Same here, after watching that clip, i might not buy that track after all. Looking forward to the DLC cars though. But at least now people have their drag and high speed track now.

 

[SLAPHAPPYFRANKY]

Loaded the video and thought awesome now how long is it going to be. After the video my thought is that is the best top speed track that has been in a game. That straight is just awesome. Can't wait to draft with GT5's insane drafting.

 

[Mac K]

I was planning on buying it, but I don't know if I will now, the price doesn't bother me, but the track itself seems boring.. We'll see.

its alone only i think

 

[terminator363]

Thanks a lot for posting.

Route X definitely looks like the brutal brother of Ehra-Lessien and Nardo. Oh, if only it had Complex String and a skidpad in the infield...

If it included that I would buy it. Otherwise, this track doesn't seem all that great.

 

[JRayWRX]

I wish they would reveal whether it is just the oval, or if there is more to it.
Space empire said SSR-X "Oval" will be 30km with a 12km straight.

I said it before, maybe i'm just getting my hopes up, but maybe there is more to this track than just an oval...

It would be awesome if it was an ultimate test track with a Complex String type road course, skid pad, etc...Wishful thinking, though...

 

[Spagetti69]

That straight is just awesome.

Wonder if you can do it in reverse too. IMAGINE that!

 

[SuperShouden]

The Top Speed test video seems to be going to wrong way down the straight as the corner at the end was to the right instead of the left. So, most likely, you'll be able to do the reverse. Which might be interesting with the elevation changes.

What if PD was the one that put the price tag on it.
It's a business and a business tries to make money.

but let's not turn this thread in to another DLC price complaining thread.

 

[Chad D.]

I hope we get night time variation of Route X or a 24hr one, night time looks pretty there.

In the new NSX concept video they used a night time variation of Route X, so they at least have that, but hopefully they'll have a 24 hr version.

 

[TheDabbinDave]

Too bad it's just a minute and a half of the straight. WHY would PD do that!

 

[evilKnoxville]

but let's not turn this thread in to another DLC price complaining thread.

I smoke cigarettes. Approximately, 30 cig's a day. Of course, I'll buy any DLC that is less expensive, healthier and more persistent than a pack of cigarettes.

I am really looking forward to next week's DLC - while the first DLC was pushed into stores before the regular update, the second one (at least in Europe) was published with the regular update, hence Wednesday evening... I'm really looking forward to that day.

 

[shirakawaa]

It will most probably have a "time change" variation as with other tracks.

 

[Aloha62_2]

transitional time and weather would be great although I cant see many folk interest in a 24 race around such a circuit, unless you can get a much larger field of cars racing at once.

 

[CorvetteConquer]

Go backwards!!!

There's no way we'll see anything new going forward (especially with an X2010).

So we need the gamers to go in reverse lol.

 

[Louishino]

12km straight, if it's an oval..that would mean it will have a 3km bend...assuming everything is divided evenly.

 

[Watt2159]

This place also looks like a pretty good location to take photo sessions as well.
