The 'September speculation' discussion thread? (No car suggestions)

- Weather (dynamic or not)
- Museums
- GR1 La Croix Endurance racing (Perhaps on C, the longest with several long straights and fast corners)
- More Manufacturers - TVR, Lotus (Lotus Carlton....Esprit Turbo...Europa...), Donkervoort, Koennigsegg, Pagani, Volvo, Bentley, Noble, Brabham
- Tuner cars....a Cosworth tuning showroom would be amazing, with a variety of things from the legendary Escort and Sierra through to the 190E, Ascona. Likewise Spoon for Honda and Mines....
- Online Seasonals with decent rewards, perhaps one time entry to prevent using it to grind too easily.
- Nitro (A fun addition to cars, and something I miss from old GT games - esp if allowed to adjust power/time ratio)
- Being able to see cars in the garage like you can in Brand Central. Even after buying a car, you can only see it properly if you get in it. The Garage pics are all small.
- Quicker menu load times
- Ability to trade 10 or 20 duplicate cars for another spin of the wheel
 
I'd like to hope there will be a content update for August. But I'm not getting my hopes up too high because April only the Supra GR and there was no update in June. Also, it seems like the amount of cars in the updates are getting lower and lower.
 
If Nitrous were to come back, what could the price be for it?In Gran Turismo 4, it costs $5,000, though by Gran Turismo 6, it costs $100,000.
 
What I want on the August update:

- More freedom on the suit editor. Like my ability to create racing suits have been limited due to the limited space where you can put decals and stuff on the racing suit.

- Bring back dailies. Even though I don't do dailies much since I don't have PS+ sub (you can even look at Kudosprime for my Sport Mode stats and the only time I got the chance to do Sport Mode is when PS has a free multiplayer weekend promo), I do feel that dailies are much better.

- More brand/manufacturer themed Scapes.

As for the cars and tracks, I'm prepared for whatever PD is gonna give me.
 
More small diameter wheel choices. However, with each, supposedly un-monthly monthly update, we get scapes, track, cars.

Again, PD do surprises like no other game. I'll guess:

Gr. 4 Amateur events
Mazda Roadster Professional Events
Some type of British Car Cup Race
 
...since tire model has been changed, there is big possibility that next big update will bring weather effects to tracks, maybe some of the tracks that have a lot of rain... maybe...

...would like to see day to night transitions but, I doubt that we will see it, since there are limitations to some of the graphics pre-backed things that are used in current rendering system (GI I think is one of those)... hope that can be overdone... I really hope for this...

...car groups redone, a lot. I do understand why all those imaginary cars where here, but now it is not needed anymore.
Gr1 - VGT's need to go, LMP and GrC need to be in separate group
LMP (1/2/3) - renamed to LMP, would be nice to get some of the P2 and P3 cars
Gr2 - renamed to either GT500 or something, also would like to see DTM's and older GT500 cars to the group
Gr3 - separation of imaginary cars, making real GT3 and GTE classes (maybe some of the GTE cars to be added), maybe also adding some older and current GT300 cars
Gr4 - separation of imaginary cars, adding more of the unique GT4's
N group - returning of PerformancePoint measurement to the N class of cars, this would eliminate all the OP's in group (to some degree)
GrX - separation of some of the real cars to either N group (i3), or making it's own group (330P4, XJ13, 250GT)
GrB - donno what to say about this, I know there are many legendary cars out there, but I have a feeling that PD included all others (except Audi Quattro) as a necessity to make a group out of it and to add 3 tracks that rarely someone uses...
Making Pace cars of some use on longer races.

Returning of original fuel amount per car as in real life counterparts, with as much as possible realistic fuel consumption rates.

UI needs to be redone a bit, the multi functions part needs to be separate from rest of the UI, because some of us like to play it in cockpit without UI, but that little thing is needed for races... Also adding some of the additional things to the UI

More cars in SP, since we have a 30 car multiclass race with AI, there should be option for that, also adding separate timings for each group in UI

Multiplayer server setup - since I mention more cars, if a single console can handle 30 cars + AI, why is it problem of adding all that to MP? In todays age where internet connection and speeds are not an issue anymore, I don't think this is a problem...
Additional settings for servers in form of allowed cars as a list that one can choose (weight, power, fuel amount) per car (BoP would be partly solved by this in MP and Sport mode)
With all these settings, multiclass racing would be much easier to manage etc.
Additional option for Replay streaming/tv cam only people (even if this means that not more then 24 players can attend race)
Additional option for pace car to be available as an option (we have them in game already)

Daily races need to be redone, we need more then 3. 4 or even 5 would be nice, where 1, 2, 3 would be same as they are now, 4th and 5th should be races that last much longer, at least 45min to and hour, and in case of race 5 with damage on etc.
Would be nice to see races that have specific cars in it, we have GrC now, we already have for quite some time the 330P4 and XJ13.

Definite prices of some of the cars reduced (20mils ones) and/or adding races where one can actually earn better buck.
Credit limit raised to at least 50mils (donno why limit is there in first place for all currencies)
Giving an option as compensation for selling the gifted cars, would be nice to be something like 1/10 of car actual price (1/3 is for ones you buy).
When daily gift cars come to roll, would be nice to have at least 50% of those that show up to be ones that you didn't get.

Penalties totally redone. But this is totally new topic to be added into the thread.

Some of the options in controller setup are there but cannot be used, like horn, wipers, nitro etc.
I know this is not so a game changer, but nitro button would be good game changer for an option as a KERS/ERS/DRS.

Livery editors - would be nice to have special colors on liveries too, added separate wheel colors with liveries, added windshield liveries, added partially glass and light liveries.

Mileage exchange - adding additional colors (carbon fiber etc), adding additional wheels with option to get wider or narrower wheels, maybe some aero parts too
Adding horn sounds (jokes on Dukes of Hazard) :)

Fixing all not working things in car interiors and instrument clusters (on some it is working on some not, why?), re-balancing light intensity.

Option to change all units, speed, weight, length and volume for all versions of game (US, EU, etc.)

Maybe I did miss a lot of things, but this would change game drastically if you ask me... I know cars shouldn't be on list, but I cannot imagine any discussion not to mention those...

Majority of these things can be done in less then a month, I know there is testing needed for MP part but why can we have a game that everyone would enjoy. Why does PD not do anything about bugs and things that are destroying so good of a concept? Things I cannot understand really...

Cheers...

I would suggest tyre punctures and engine blow outs too bad it will piss a lot of players.

Stop and go penalty will also be great.

We need features not just cars and tracks.

-multiclass racing
-race modifications like in GT2
-real time damage
-selling gift cars for credits
 
- daily races or implementation from 3 to 6 or 8 different for weekly races.
- Time lapse with Weather variation (as GT6)
- The possibility to sell the duplicates car (if you already have one or two ... )***
- BSPec or autonomus racing cars mode

I add other interesting things i like to have in GTS

- shuffle races
- Like the wind events
- possibility to share cars (as GT5)


IR
 
I personally would rather have this than SPA

01.jpg
So you want to get back to SR: E.
Interesting.
 
Some touring cars would be nice. BTCC is my favourite racing series at the moment, and the I would love to see NGTC regulation cars.

However, the FIA's involvment in the game would make the TCR cars a much more likely addition if Polyphony ever wanted to add a Gr. T or something. I would be more than fine with that though, even though I don't watch it. It would bring a few manufacturers back, such as Seat. Although on the downside, there would be yet another OP Megané knowing Polyphony.
 
I just want the ability to create my own menu music playlist within the game.

That, and maybe see the return of Manufacturer's Cup races like in GT2 and GT4 (Viper Festival Of Speed anyone?).
 
There just needs to be more stuff to do.

- I think some special events would be a great addition to the game, like the ones from GT5 maybe.

- More cups and I think they need to add the option to do the whole championship for each cup. The prize should be a cash prize, but you also win a special item instead of a car. Unlock car horn packs haha

- A hard mode of the driving challenges.

- PD needs to bring back the Lotus cars. Whatever car they bring will be welcomed.

- More of those Car Manufacturer Museums.

- And some more tracks. Fictional or not.

I don't expect it all to come, but most of these before the end of the cycle.
 
1. ban countersteer assist in all sport mode races.

2. if gr3 road cars are road cars, should one not be able to steer them further than like, 5 degrees?

3. possibility to map a button to toggle the hud on and off without going to pause and suffering all the steps. also possibe to display only mfd with auto hide feature when inactive. also possibility to map buttons to brake balance directly.

4. when connection fails, don't remove a million points from DR.

5. the virtual driver is spending most of his time looking right at where I want to be looking at. how hard can it be to put a camera on that helmet?

6. rear view mirror when using the roof cam and ability to look left and right. different zoom levels on mfds radar using +/-

7. full screen precise power/torque graph

8. ban. countersteer. assist. all. sport mode.
 
Now the new tyre model is in weather, and more specifically wet tracks, is much more probable. Made no sense to introduce and fine tune wet weather for the old tyre model.

BTW, I wouldn’t be against PD missing an August update. All I ask is to be kept informed and deliver extra content in September.

Here are a few realistic fixes and additions I would like to see in the future.

- Add gearshift sounds to the Mercedes-AMG W08 EQ Power+
- Add the idle 'brap-brap-brap' sound to the Mazda 787B
- Add dirt to cars after a race. Graphics are gorgeous but very clinical currently
- Add an Associate Gear option to Home where our suit and helmet automatically change when a different car is selected
- Add the ability to sell duplicate cars for Cr or MP
- Add HUD customisation
- Add windscreen banner customisation
- Allow decals to be painted in Special Colours
- Add option to save our custom colours
- Add the ability to move the GT number panel around on the car. Often our custom liveries are hampered by the preset placing approach
- Reduce boundary box size around driver in Scapes to allow them move closer to car
- Add night time option to Circuit de la Sarthe
- Add support for multiclass racing like PCars2
- Option of a higher 'Platinum' difficulty setting
- Add the currently keyboard only Replay options to the game for all users.

Are we 8 updates from 2.0? Or do you think we get it let say by Christmas???
They could drop a Spec 2.0 update at anytime! Perhaps the October update - 1 year anniversary??

Just curious as to where you get 8 from though??
 
- more Gr.2 cars and classic GT500 cars
- more KeiCars to fit in the new Kcup
- adding completely new brands like TVR or Abarth or Lotus
- a new VGT (I wish they will do it a new one)
- instead 1 track, 2 tracks like Fuji speedway and a new oval track Daytona
- the game is lacking of weather dynamic
- new damage system like in GT5
- the game is lacking of sport SUV
- online lobbies for 20 players instead 16
- more daily race because I think 3 type of races daily aren't enough
- more events like a Lamborghini event or a Mitsubishi cup you know manufacture cups
- an option to upgrade normal cars like the Mazda MX5 into GR.4 or GR.3 car
