Tracks?

I guess PD will add stuff overtime.

They still have the laser data for tracks and cars but they’d need to redo the graphics for them from scratch because the PS4 can handle a lot more detail.

I think Kaz said each car is worked on by one person and takes 6 months? It was something like that anyway. So it could be a while ....

they can take their sweet time. Nurburgring + Porsches + Kraftwerk Albums = should keep me busy for several months
 
"Mazda Raceway, Le Mans, Road Atlanta, Track of the Americas etc.. where the hell are they?"

Hopefully in a big fat DLC for Christmas :boggled:
 
What happened to all the tracks like Laguna, Spa, Sonoma, Fuji, Tokyo, Trial Mountain etc?
They're not in the game. Yet.
Also the cars, I really want my 68 Camaro.

Probably in the same place they've always been.

Nevertheless, we've known about most of GT Sport's car and track lists for about 6 months, and known them entirely for well over a month, so it shouldn't be a surprise that these things aren't in the game.

Not to mention the fact that two of the tracks you mention have never been in a GT game.
 
I don't mind the car situation so much because I kind of like how it's focused on the racecar classes, gt3 and gt4, but i really do hope that we get a track DLC.

I actually like the new tracks in this game more than I thought I would, but come on - a good online race on Spa? Endless time trial laps around Laguna like i used to do but with ps4 graphics...Who doesn't want that?
 
With four years development into the game, can’t imagine they would back-load the track content, at best hope three or four new tracks, if past is any reference, then how many of them will be real world courses, worst case to me, the make up of the new DLC being mainly rally & oval courses.
 
I'm more than happy with the car list, but more tracks would be welcome as long as they are up to the same standard as whats already in the game.
 
Just compare the new Tokyo to the old Trial Mountain.

Gran Turismo Sport has a lot of good details of a different car game, but the main things like tracks and others that all we know have dissapeared.

I want to finish the offline mode and start playing PC2, maybe it´s time to change or at least to play more than one only game.
 
I just want the t shirt looking track back (trial mountain)
I remember saying that when I used to be a kid. :lol:

Maybe its just me but as much as I like some of the new fictional tracks, I don't find them to be that remember able to be honest. Maybe I'm just nostalgic about their older games...but...

Where's the classic GT original circuits or Real life circuits? Laguna Seca used to be in all of the main GT title ever since GT2:



How about the classic High Speed Ring we all remember?



And the list goes on...:(
 
Obviously, new cars and tracks will be added to the game later. Probably (more than) enough to satisfy our needs.

But I wonder why they choose to release the game with a very limited amout of tracks and cars. I know a lot of people who bought PC2, just because it has more cars and tracks than GTS. I can hardly believe that this strategy would be better than postponing the release date and give us a decent amount of tracks/cars. I dont think they did it to adapt to the release of forza7 and PC2, it would have been better to wait untill everyone got tired of these games before releasing GTS

Am I right or was this a genious move somehow?

You forget tha GTS was supposed to be released before Pcars2 or F7.So you think that another delay would be good for them?
Also they have a specific numbers of tracks/cars for the title (as any other studio does).So studios choose to release their game with a certain number of them -a "decent amount" from their point of view- and add the rest of that list as DLS (free or not).
There can be different reasons behind that that only they know.
 
More circuits will arrive, but the question is the game should have at least 30-40 tracks from the beginning, and more later with DLC.

Now the important thing of this game is to be able to put a number or a logo in the roof of your car, oh my god!!! we aren't livery designers, we are racing drivers!!!

Livery editor, brands history, beautiful menus, scapes, etc. should be extras to complete a good game. In Gran Turismo Sport we have a lot of good extras, but the main part of the game is still arriving.

I bought GTS knowing everything of this, so no surprise, but at the same time I just comment my impressions about a product that should be sold more complete from the beginning.

They took a lot of years to lunch this new tittle, or not?

I had pre ordered the game in November of 2016 as it was supposed to release in December of 2016 and that was after already of being "delayed" several times if I remember correctly.

The game finally releases in October 2017 so after being delayed for 10 months from its last scheduled release I do not think another release delay would have been very wise.

I am surprised though as how it seems after a 4 year development time frame that so many aspects of the game seem to be unplanned as far as direction, implementation , or unfinished needing more development or testing.

It seems that the CLOSED Beta, then the open demo prior to release and I am sure PD has in house game testers that many of the problems and weakness that still need to be addressed should have been taken care of at launch in a day 1 update.
 
Here are some tracks I’d personally like (enjoy) if they were to be added: Circuit of the Americas, Monza , Sliverstone, Lydden Hill, Spa - Francorchamps, Knockhill, Red Bull Ring, Donnington Park, Circuit Gilles Villeneuve, Estoril.
 
I know they will most likely be added as DLC at some point but surely Spa, Monza and Silverstone would all have been reasonably easy to add given that they were all PS3 circuits? Surely wouldn't have taken too much time to get them up to PS4 standard.

I certainly hope they add plenty of circuits over time.
