I like this idea. The Mercedes Nurburgring challenge was something like this. Passing or getting passed by a large variety of cars on the ring would be great fun. Would love to be crusing at 125mph in a Honda Civic only to have a Veyron blow past me at 250mph

And then you overtake it in the corners. But in all seriousness, I'd like to see this as well.

And then you watch it lose control and explode, then a Mclaren F1, a true super car comes in and passes everything everywhere... a realistic track day would be great, maybe they can even implement drifting AIs in e36s that crash to make it even more realistic... poor e36. :\


92 cars on track might be a bit too many, maybe 64 would be better, or they can just generate to give the illusion of passing many more cars than there actually are...

@Earh thank you for menioning the Mercedes challenge, exactly what I was thinking of. with the passing the slower cars part, except more free run, pick your own car. have cars that are faster and slower would be awesome. :P then make the bumping a little more realistic, like FORZA, so when u get hit u actually get knocked over, not that silly gentle little push that makes u lose 0.005... I quite like the way your car reacts when u get hit on Forza actually...

Ive been jotting down [more] things as I play,...

-favorites for tracks. anyone else sick of scrolling through cape ring and fuji and route7?

-music during photomode. keep playing replay music during photomode.

-fastest lap replay button. a button that takes you straight to the fastest lap.

-individual HUD options. id like to see each box (speed, tires, fuel, turbo, etc) have individual display preferences. custom locations would be bonus.

-running lights turn on during startup. when change car is selected, in garage, the startup sound is followed by running lights turning on.

-greater range of brake balance. (or adjust appropriately for 0 ABS). most street cars can only use brake settings of 2,0 3,0. even race cars other than high downforce (f1 etc) cannot use higher than 6 of 10. this limits fine tuning greatly.

-more open face helmets. id like to see more of these, or atleast have the option to have the visor up.

-female human figures. need i say more

-home screen slideshow. in addition to displaying photomode photos on homescreen, id like to see an option for slideshow with adjustable intervals.

-more feedback settings for wheels. im sure this has been mentioned a thousand times but it is needed. pedals too. codemasters has had these options on console games for 10 years!

I dont think 64 cars is likely to happen. 24, or 32 max is what I think we will see. Still enough to make for an interesting track day at the Nurburgring.

I would like to see an option to choose which cars randomly appear. Hopefully GT6 groups alll the cars in GT mode the same way they group them in Arcade mode. C, B, A, S, and Racing classes. C class is the slowest road cars, S class is supercars and R is racing cars. Give us the option to select which classes of cars are randomly generated in the pits and go out on track. You can select just one class, or two, or all 5 for maximum mayhem.

And the collision physics are awful. The "brick" physics of the cars when struck from behind or even from the side are still there all the wa from the PS1 days. When a car is hit in the left rear from behind it should yaw to the right and lose control, not just slide forward like the hit was perfectly square.

I miss those.

Good thing I kept my GT4
 
Some really good ideas in here. I'd like to suggest a simple but gratifying cosmetic change.

Better wheel customization/painting ala 3-tone wheel painting via lip (outer edge touching the tire), surface, and inner edges of the spokes should all be paintable independently of each other as seen in MCLA for instance.

This goes hand in hand with a proper vinyl editor so that color coordination of the wheels and body can be completely in sync.

I'd personnally Love to have a chrome lip, with a black surface, and blue-chrome inner edges on my black & blue cars for example. Or a chrome lip with a red surface and gold inner edges on a car with flames to increase the flame appeal.

I have many more ideas, but most are fairly covered by many of the other great ideas listed here.
 
Hi I am new to this forum. I have not had time to read through the hundreds of posts. The things I would like to implemented for Gran Turismo 6 are.

1: more than the top 10 times on a track arcade mode, more like one slot for each car in the game. Also if I beat a time on a certain track ex. with a Lamborghini Aventador I would like to just see the best time kept. Not every attempt kept and logged.

2: Have a test facility that includes top speed, quarter mile, zero to 100 time, 200 foot skid pad, 60 to 0 braking, 100 to zero braking, slalom. With this you can test any stock car and see if modifications improve such times.

3: with the license test one you pass bronze you can use any car you want on the passed test. You can not how ever get any higher license with a different car.

4: the ability to change oil between races.

5: I almost forgot add in some new cars and rarer cars. Also remove the different varieties of of same models with slighlty different tuning options. Add in cars from the past that are no longer in game, the Saleen race car as an example.

Thanks for reading and I appreciate any comments .
 
They should add more minivans. I mean if they even bother to have the Odessey they should have others as well. Mercedes R 55, Toyota Sienna, and i'd say the 1989 Dodge Caravan. Why that you say? In case you didnt know they had a turbo version that some have modded to hit 12 second quarter miles! LOL

Welcome to GTPlanet! :gtpflag:

1.) Definitely. I don't see much logic behind having 3 different lap times for my Aventador.

2.) Nice idea, but I feel somehow unsure about it.

3.) I don't see much sense in license tests, unless licenses obtained will count online as well. So in lobbies people could ban unskilled drivers.

4.) I think there aren't many races long enough for oil changes to be necessary ;)

5.) No comment necessary, we all want better cars c:
 
I just had an idea...

Weather actually approaching the track. So you can see dark clouds from far away; this kind of stuff.

How about a Lamborghini photoshoot with a lightning in the background? :sly:
 
Real time racing. Its been posted plenty of time. But real time racing at all times. Also depends on time zones. If your online it goes normal just whatever wants to come rain,night,dawn etc. But when your on a spec real time racing would be fun.

I like the idea. It starts to get dark before it rains but theres no realtime clouds or cloud formations. The sky just turns white. I use to have a Lamborghini poster with lightning in the background believe it or not

They announced the PS4 will support live video streaming of gameplay. Now online league races can be streamed relatively easily for people to watch live. Or maybe you want to spend time broadcasting random GT6 online races for GTPlanet users to watch
 
Wow, great thread, will take some time to read it all, but these are the things that I long for in every GT (in reverse order):

3 - Better AI

2 - Tightly controlled racing classes so you can't turn up in an overpowered car by mistake (or intentionally) and get the win without skill or effort.

1 - Less clicks in the UI. How many clicks to buy parts and tune the car? Waaaaay too many. At least allow me to save a shopping list of parts and buy them together. I don't go through the supermarket checkout paying for 1 at a time for every item I want to buy. Specify the power improvement I want and suggest the parts to get there. The garage and settings buttons in race screens helps massively, but these are the same UI mistakes from GT1.

And of course, more different cars, and more tracks.
 
I want to make my own single race(not a C'hip) by assigning same class cars to the AI. Also an option to choose "Timed Race" instead of laps or which ever comes first.
 
I would like to see a greater juxtaposition between arcade and gt modes. Make arcade big enough and flashy enough that it feels like a game in its right, leaving the possibility to "go to town" on gt mode and make it something that truly competes with the most serious sims out there.

It would be awesome to have arcade mode be like a totally different game,with more flair and more arcady handling but with the simulation vibe we all know and love.
 
I would like to see some quick easy money races or challenges or something. Nothing major but enough to help build an account a little quicker than racing a bunch of cars you cant beat because you have no mods. Maybe a 5000cr drag race with cars of the same class and power, Or a 1 lap run. Sort of like the practice runs but you get low pay for winning. And bring back the 1000 cr for winning Pole Position, assuming they bring the chance to win pole back too.
 
Ok there are a lot of great ideas here. Some are unrealistic and a bit extreme. After all there has to be some limit, they can't do everything. Eg windscreen squirters... why...
I've been playing Gran Turismo since the first one and I love it. Yes there could be more options to customize your car. There is too many cars that are almost indentical in GT5 eg all the used mx5's, S2000's, GTR's. There should be a choice to qualify/ practice in A-spec races, especially in championships, like there use to be in the older versions. Also there needs to be a scoring system setup for online drifting, cos at the moment it's kind of pointless.. Eg do 3 laps and award $'s the same as in a normal race. Folders so you can sort race/road/rally/drift/Formula cars. (note I have over 840 cars.) Oh I know this thread isn't about tracks, but I'd LOVE to see Bathurst on Gran Turismo, and why wait for GT6??? Make it a DLC, I'll pay 5 bucks for it any day, and sure thousands of other GT5 fans would also. Also I'd like to see a few more special cars, I mean I have all the cars and now whenever the used car dealership or online dealership comes up I already have everything, and money is no object any longer. Each time the online dealership changes there should be a new special car that no-one has. I'm sure they could copy some of the D1 drift cars or some of some racing series.. Also how about an option when you open a lobby to choose what level driver you let in your room. Good way to stop noobs coming in and crashing everyone.. Also make it and the lobby name changeable in-game. eg at the moment if a host has a certain name and leaves and u want to change the room name you can't.. U may want to change the name to the type of racing you now want to play. I also would like to see GT6 available on PS3 as I don't really want to change consoles, I'm happy with the graphics the PS3 can perform. (remember some of us started on the original:)) although I think all cars should be as good quality finishes as the premium cars are now. Hope someone reads and takes notice:) I LUV gran turismo! Lets not try and do too much with it as it may overcomplicate it.

Like a challenge sheet of sorts?Love the idea but I'll add in something else,make these odd job challenges like scoring a certain amount of points in a drift trial,get a certain time on a certain track,beating a race in a certain car (If we can get infinite race events) and all the various things you talked about.

They should make this challenge sheet random and different for everyone in the game,and they should update them every week or so like the seasonals except that with full slate updates (a full erasure of the last sheet for a new one).
 
This is not a major feature but rather some cleaning up and bringing order. I'm quite bothered by the way the tracks are sorted on the selection screen. Well, they're not sorted at all, which is the problem. There is no order whatsoever there are different track layouts here and there.

I've quickly put together a concept that be much easier to navigate through I think. Of course, I'm sure PD could up with a much better design, but you'll get the idea.

First you see the track logo's sorted by location in alphabetic order (Maybe you'll see what weather, time etc it is on the location, much like in GT5P):

trackselection02.jpg


Then if you enter a track you'll see the different layouts you can choose between:

trackselection04.jpg
 
Two simple little things that I thought of:

1. I like to race/drive with no hud/lap times etc. on screen but do want to keep track of lap times and splits. It would be nice to have the option to have certain info pop up momentarily upon completion of a lap or sector.

2. Would like to be able to set up my own garage and give my own names to categories. Merely having a favourites option does not really tidy it up much at all.
