That is a fine time for an ODYSSEY
Have you ever heard the term "It does what's written on the box"..?
The Red Bull track with no people is creepy. It would make a good Twilight Zone episode. It needs crickets and the haunting far away sound of a single invisible F1 car as background noise.![]()
Nope, I stick the disc in and play the Game (we all know it's a game).
How can you seriously quote the words from the case/ title "The Real Driving Simulator" and not believe it's marketing.

Since the original GT, the actual on track circuit racing has never been brilliant, you have to admit.
I mean a field of 6-10 cars is rubbish in comparison with games as far back as TOCA, all the F1's, Race Driver, etc
20-30 cars on the grid is real racing.
GT could drop the term "Race" and replace it with "Track-Day"
As someone who takes part in real-world track-days, it's a good comparison.
You take a fast street car, pull out everything that's not bolted in, strap on a helmet and drive as fast as you dare with a small group of mates.
So, I've elaborated and shown you how GT simulates the "Real World" experience.
EDIT:
Seems I'm not the only one who thinks GT isn't all about rascing

In before... B..b..b...ut you should enjoy re-tuning all your cars it's fun...and...everyone is in the same boat so stop whiningWow, thank you so much PD for changing MR handling physics again. I'm so glad I get to throw out over 100 tunes and start over on every single MR car I own. It's not like I had a league race this weekend where I was using an MR car or anything. I can't tell you how excited I am to trash two weeks of tuning information and start from scratch less than 36 hours from the green flag. In the future, warn us that you're going to do a physics overhaul. Or, better yet, instead of giving in to the cries of a bunch of casuals who don't know how to tune a car, you simply say "get good".
Woah there buddy, not bothering with tuning doesn't immediately equate to "Casual"Wow, thank you so much PD for changing MR handling physics again.

Did you notice I prefaced my post with, "in before"?No...no they're not. Well I'm not anyway, as I have no tuned cars in GT6. Still, I hate the way they tweak (ruin) the physics model at every opportunity. There was nothing wrong with the way the cars interacted with kerbs imo. But hey, now it's been "fixed".

Have you felt the new kerbs yet though? They feel nice.No...no they're not. Well I'm not anyway, as I have no tuned cars in GT6.

Have you felt the new kerbs yet though? They feel nice.
In all seriousness though, sure, you didn't feel it needed fixing, but they love to tweak, it's usually a good thing.
I was just joking around, I've only been able to play for 10 minutes since the update, and didn't notice the difference. PD does like to tweak pointless things for no obvious reason but I'm sure they have a plan.When I first plugged my wheel in, the FFB felt number, not nicer to me. It's easier to ride the kerbs now, & they don't pull you around as much. I liked how it was before, because it was more challenging. That said, after several hours of online racing I'm now attuned to the new physics, & still had a jolly good time too!

If they could just tweak the air resistance a bit...The first part I agree with!

Nintendos are cool...Kaz sure likes being in the lime-light doesn't he. (ref FIA thing) He's like the first kid in the neighborhood to get a Nintendo and everyone wants to show up at his house and he loves it.
At each decision they make, it seems Gran Turismo is slowly and painfully turning into something other than a game. Will we ever get a full livery editor or a full customization system for all of the cars? With this FIA partnership it all seems very unlikely.If I were asked to deliberately run the Gran Turismo franchize into an unrecoverable nose dive I'm not so sure I could have done it any better than what PD has done with GT6.
It's just so thoroughly half baked across the board.
Some aspects are even getting worse![]()
Well my enthusiasm for this series just hit a new low today. From the news about the future of GT7 to the crappy answers in the AmA, it's one negative after the other.
You very much seem a tortured soul. You have my sympathies. Is there anything you enjoy about the series?
Really? That's all? The option of driving cars without interiors was all it took?https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/thre...amer-standards-are-here-to-stay.312265/unread

I'm officially done with GT.
