No need to reiterate the obvious issues that we all know but one of the things annoying me, especially when I have 220 cars so far, is:
  • Filter/order state of viewing car list in the garage is not saved neither permanently nor temporary. So each time you wanna filter cars based on manufacture for example and then select to view car and go back the car list will reset to last used car or whatever, then you have to filter by manufacture again to view another car then its reset again, its very annoying and an indication that whoever done that didn't use the system and didn't realize the issue of filtering cars when you have supposedly 420 cars. Whenever I'm in the garage I ALWAYS filter cars means that I'm never satisfied with the default option. Its ridiculous.

Yeah that's near top of my list too.

Yeah, it's strange they chose to display that bar instead of an actual tach. Especially when they have a full tach for the bumper cam.

They carried it over from GTS but even there it was flawed. Just give me a GT6 style tach is all

Because you don't need to slow down or even modulate your throttle inputs on those two. They hardly take a lot of skill to master.

There's still a good deal of skill involved (at least in Daytona) in taking the fastest line. Or they could make the challenge/experience be keeping the car in the optimal powerband or not bouncing off the rev limiter.
 
The game still telling me I just changed my car, a message I have to click away, when I just clicked on "Change car" and the car I wanted to change into.

What is the effing point?
 
WHat really bugs the s**t out of me is when I restart a race I have to watch the procession before the countdown every damn time. Just bring be straight to the car at the countdown. I don't want to watch the cars pass by every single time

Yes this drives me crazy. But again I remember every "Japanese" game I played I have to click a lot of unnecessarily buttons especially in the start like I have to click and approve 5 things, click to approve the user agreement then click on "ok" that you approved the agreement.

basically Click-to-play games haha
 
Need option to remove wide body.

Not sure if wide body upgrade kind of bends the chassis, so unrealistic to expect it?

A lot of tunes seem to have it and I'm adverse to do it with the more expensive cars. What happens if pd tinker with physics/mechanics again and you end up with a load of expensive cars running something thats sub optimum or worse and can't be reversed?

There is at the tuning shop. Buy a new chassis.

Nice! Cheers mate. Does that undo rigidity and weight reduction too?

You're welcome! Never actually used it, but i think does, yeah. I think it tells you in the description.

Selling for Cr.(still waiting for the supposedly patch for that option). You can only Discard a car, if you have a duplicate of that car.
Click to expand...
Just checked there and you are right! I looked at various cars and the discard option was there, but selecting it gives you a ‘you can’t discard…’ message. I was convinced that if you only had one car it didn’t even show the discard option!

It should at least unlock the function, once the 39 books are completed. Wouldn’t harm anything to clean up our garages, when we can buy those cars(if we want them again) in the unlocked dealerships.
 
Things that I'm sure will require very little effort to fix:
  • The "return to world map" button is greyed out most of the time, what even is the point?
  • When you return from one of the GT Auto sub-screen, it does not return to GT Auto, but the world map. (Fixed since 1.15)
  • The game doesn’t remember your MFD selection from session to session.
  • When you watch the replay, you can’t adjust cockpit view or chase view settings, you have to start a race to change them.
  • When you watch the replay, the UI settings are restored to none every time. (Partially fixed, now it remembers which camera was used last time)
  • In sport mode, qualifying mileage doesn’t count. (Fixed)
  • In sport mode, you can save the replay but you can’t watch it right there like in GT Sport.
  • In sport mode, you can only watch the top 10 replays before you enter the race, you can’t watch them while you are in the qualifying session like in GT Sport.
  • NPC dialogues mocking at you every fifth time you fail a mission, circuit experience, etc.
  • In sport mode, most pole positions from pre-1.17 are lost.
Things that may involve UI redesigns and stuff so they probably require slightly more effort to address:
  • You can only purchase tires in the upgrade shop.
  • You can't remap buttons on your steering wheels freely, at least not nearly as much freedom as in other modern sims.
  • No dashboard view.
  • Your own scape photos, replays, etc. are not categorized but all bunched together. (Noticed that there's a category selector, but now sure if it was there since the beginning)
  • In sport mode, you can't report someone for malicious behaviors.

For me, it's definitely the prize ticket roulette thingy. Whenever you win money on it, it always goes for the smallest amount on the wheel. It's rare to get any other prize but I feel as though it's kinda fixed on the lowest amount of money.
 
Didn't want to start a new thread but seriously, where the **** are all the cars?

The last decent update was supposed to improve the used car dealership but as far as I can tell all its done is given us twice the amount of the same old stuff.

For some reason, PD don’t appear to do Daily refreshes well. We have 30 cars available in the UCD. If all refreshed daily, it’d be three to four days to run through the used car list rotation. I wouldn’t mind that, but not sure PD would want to manage it.
 
-No racing BGM plays when in time trial/online free run
-GT3 music tracks are locked behind replay

I know the music isn't a big deal to most people, but i do (or did) enjoy just cruising around online or in time trial with the music playing in the background. It's something that has always been in the GT games too. Don't know why they locked the GT3 songs behind replays as well, wonder what made them come up with that decision.

So when I do a time trial I like to have the tyre wear and fuel use at x1 with grip on track edge set to real. Having to do this every single time is annoying and I wish it would just default to the settings I want.
 
The rubberbanding AI. Ran the World Rally Challenge at Alsace twice. I drove like an idiot in the first race and fast in the second one. The AI was 4 seconds a lap faster when I drove fast. It is ridiculous that this is our AI in a AAA game in 2022.

My time 6:12
GT-R AI time 6:19
My time 5:46
GT-R AI time 6:07

If you hang back at Special Stage Route X the AI will slow down up to 40 seconds per lap to try and wait for you to catch up.
 
- Cars in the UCD returning in the same colour as they did the last time(s). The Renault 5 Turbo has been red every time it's appeared so far, never blue. And I think this is the third time it has appeared in my time with the game.

- Not being able to see what car the factory colours in GT Auto come from, only the brand. And it seems that not all colours are included, just the vast majority which is simply strange. Why include most, but not every?

- limited camera adjustments for cockpit. Why don't we have an FOV slider? Why can't the look left/right functions be smoother instead of immediately dashing 90 degrees? Why am I here? Where am I going?

I get annoyed by this too, but I can see why they designed it that way. They are probably worried that they'll just be a bunch of GT 7 replays around online with full HUDs blocking their lovely aesthetic.

Couple of things which I think should be simple to remedy
  • The best-ever sector delta (to carry across from previous sessions, providing you own the car, this has been mentioned before)
  • Please let us change the thumbnails on our replays!!

When you come up to lap the crappy AI,after moving in front of you at the last second,when you punt them hard and end up spinning 2 or 3 times but the AI carry on as if nothing happens!!!lol

I’ve got an actual little annoying thing. Starting the qualifying laps 30 seconds from the start!
Click to expand...
It's actually the best way to approach it. The last corner of the track plays a big influence on the speed you reach on the first straight. There are only two other ways to approach this and they both suck.

1 they arbitrarily give everyone the best exit speed for the last corner. This is inline with your suggestion that they start us like we do in CE. Problem this has is it gives bad drivers a better lap time on that first lap, artificially pumping their qualifying time

2. They make us run a pointless warmup lap so we can just get to the last corner to get our best exit speed. No thank you to worthless warmup laps wasting my time.
