The Update 1.12 Discussion Thread: Believe the Hype

I could, for example, say that 1.12 is scheduled to arrive September 16th at 04:00 GMT/UTC with Circuit de la Sierra, Quick Match online features, the FT-1 Vision GT Concept, and the NISMO GT-R. If it is delayed at the very last minute by some unforeseen circumstances and has to be pushed back another week, though, the average person will think I was being misleading or dishonest. So, 1.12 will just get here when it gets here. I doubt anyone here wants it to be released more than the folks at Polyphony Digital.

Johnny, you usually make decent post. But this one make me :banghead: off the GT6 Case.
 
Read into it what you want, but again, I would wait for an official announcement from PD/Sony before getting yourselves all worked up. 👍 At any rate, at least you know who to shoot the torpedoes at if it doesn't happen. :lol:

@Johnnypenso I hate the damn .gif, :mad: put it away. :lol:
It's my first time using it I swear:ouch:

This is getting ridiculous. If some guy off the street said 1.12 is coming out tomorrow you guys would believe it and make a 35 page thread turning into a sound debate.

You guys have noooo chill.
Everybody knows a guy, who knows a guy, who knows a guy...:odd:

Don't forget the fine print:sly:

Typical GTP member:

"Oh yeah, I know someone from some forum that works for a company that knows a company that knows another company that knows another insider that this update is coming on Monday the 15th. Oh and he posted it in a Youtube comment. Legit, man. Leeegit"

So what??

Is this hype train still moving or it is moving so moothly that we think it is still, or is it completely stopped...

Best to jump off before you die of boredome or just waiting too long...

Yea, that's the trouble nowadays, everybody seems to know a guy.......:lol:

Kinda reminds of that one commercial, I forget the product, but you tell somebody, then they tell somebody, and so on, and so on.......:crazy: :lol:
 
Just a couple of points.
PD, to my knowledge, have never posted a future date for a patch release.
The best you'll get is an unscheduled maintenance notice (because it's irregular to standard times), which is then followed by an unannounced update.
So you'll only know it's happened after it's happened.
Like it or not, speculation is all that's left.

Regarding MastrGT.
He has been involved with GT and PD for many, many years.
He has been a member of the US PlayStation forum for over 10 years and has over 40,000 posts.
He has been the GT board MVP there for many years.
He also has over 3000 post on the EU Playstation forum.
But he makes no claim to be an 'insider'.

He has a direct channel of communication to report issues, bugs, PSN Store problems etc.
On occassions he may receive other info. regarding plans for the near future.
At times he says nothing, other times he makes a comment.
But whether those 'plans' actually come to fruition is obviously out of his hands.

Update Details (1.12)
GT6 Updates

An update for Gran Turismo 6 has been released. The following is a list of the main features introduced:

Vision Gran Turismo
The “Toyota FT-1 Vision Gran Turismo” has been released. The design concept FT-1 is honed to perfection in this rendition to enhance its features and designs required for pure racing competition.

After the update has been installed, the car can be purchased from the [Vision GT] option within the [CARS] section in "My Home". Alternatively, it is also possible to obtain the car by completing a lap (regardless of the lap time) in the new Seasonal Event, available only for a limited time.

Sierra Time Rally
The “Sierra Time Rally” has been added to the [SPECIAL EVENTS] section in "My Home". In the first original long course “Circuito de la Sierra” modelled after the Ronda region of Spain, players will attempt to complete a lap around the course within the allotted time.

The time remaining can be extended by passing through the checkpoints, overtaking other cars will raise your combo level and your score will be calculated according to the distance driven. There are many other ways to increase your score, try to find them all!

Quick Match
[Quick Match] has been added to the [ONLINE] section of "My Home". When the event is selected, players will automatically be matched to other players around the world for a quick and easy online race.

New vehicles have been introduced
The following cars have been added to the [Dealerships] option within the [CARS] section of "My Home". You can also find these cars in the [Recommended Cars] option of the same section:

- Toyota FT-1 graphite
- Nissan GT-R Nismo ’14(*)

*Players who participated in the “GT Academy 2014” Online Qualifiers will receive this car free of charge.

Additional Meters have been added
It is now possible to install "Additional Meters" from the [Custom Parts] option within the [TUNING & SERVICING] section of "My Home". You can select up to 3 instruments to add from the following: "Boost Meter", "Water Temperature Gauge", "Oil Temperature Gauge", "Rev. Counter", "Speedometer", "Oil Pressure Gauge", "Voltmeter" and "Fuel Gauge".

Steering Controller support extended
The Thrustmaster T300RS is now officially supported and fully compatible with Gran Turismo 6. It is possible to reassign the control keys from the [Steering Controller] category within the [Options] screen in the [MENU] (accessible by pressing the START button).

Force Feedback Strength can now be adjusted from the [Quick Menu]
- The [Feedback Strength] value that could previously be adjusted only from the [Steering Characteristics] category within the [Options] screen in the [MENU] can now also be adjusted from the [Driving Options] of the "Quick Menu", displayed before a race starts.
- Additionally, the strength of the force feedback previously adjustable only under [Feedback Strength] can now be adjusted independently with the [Force Feedback Max. Torque] and [Force Feedback Sensitivity] sliders: it is now possible to set the strength of the feedback during extreme cornering and the steering sensitivity when near the centred position independently.
- Force feedback can now be adjusted on 200 degree lock-to-lock type controllers such as the Driving Force™ EX.

Other
- The motor assist control for the Toyota TS030 Hybrid ’12 has been changed. Because the motor assist only works when the car is at full throttle (over 80%), the motor no longer comes into effect during partial throttle while cornering.

For more details on each of the above features, please refer to the online manual on gran-turismo.com.
 
As far as I'm concerned, it's currently just weekly maintenance. Do I hope and pray it's much more than that? Hell yes.

EDIT: POST BOMBED YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
The new gauges specifically.

Additional Meters have been added

Water and oil more so, that's interesting.
