Lol'ed so hard on this.
I don't mean it's wrong or they shouldn't have done it...but c'mon...they took 11 years to fix a GT4 error?
Thank you PD, you just made my day

Better late than never!

When did they add the display on the lower left screen that shows every time I shift? It keeps showing L2 and R2.

Could be a controller thing. I finally played it with a controller for the first time in quite a while.

Remember the Snow tire on road glitch?

1. The tire now keeps its tire even when you select "Driving options". Previously it was reverted to the correct tire.
2. You cant do that anymore on the events and online rooms.

It's been there since the release of the game.

Odd.
I don't recall seeing it when using my wheel.

Actually, it's 14 years. The S2000 LM first appeared in GT3.

Yea, I really don't understand this, especially when they have much more glaring issues that need to be fixed in the game. It just proves how much of a three ring circus PD has become, imo.

It only shows for controllers, and you can turn it off.

How do you turn it off? I've tried looking for it a few times, but I still don't know how to.

Go to Options -> Global -> Race Hud. The option is called something like button indicator or something like that.

Since the update/GT Academy my game is really slow and takes ages to load from tuningmenu to the mainscreen.

Joining to an online race is nearly impossible as it takes so much tim till it connects. (if it even does, as most often I was unable to join)
And it can't be my provider. I have one of the best and fastest internet providers and every other device/Notebook works perfectly fine.
And it's also slow in loading offline races.

Does anyone experience the same issues since the newest updates?

 

[drivatar]

Yesterday I had long loading times probably due to server/network issues @PD.

 

[CinnamonOD]

The do server maintenace every week

Pretty sure you post about those issues here

This was a ridiculously simple issue on the modeling team's side, it's not like they took the entire several-hundred-man team to fix a tiny issue with a number plate.

The issue was spotted and they probably just had one of their modelers take a few minutes to fix it, it's not going to affect the course maker or other yet-unreleased items.

Point taken, but just to be clear, I wasn't talking about any unreleased features. I'm talking more like the ride height, which they got wrong in GT5, fixed (somewhat), then turn around and make the same stupid ass mistake in GT6. Its things like that, that really make them look like a completely incompetent company. Their tuning, physics of, ect. is what I was talking about, not to mention it took them all this time to find that number plate issue. Look, I've stood behind and praised this company long enough, its time they get their head out of their ass. They are just about ready to get left in the dust by their competition and they are going to be left standing around with their thumb up their ass wondering what the hell just happened. Harsh words? Yes. But I am just getting tired of supporting a company that seemingly refuses to get with the program.

 

[Quakebass]

Still not the fault of the modeler being assigned the task of fixing a number plate, it's the fault of PD either ignoring it or not bothering to put any coders on the issues.

I totally agree that a whole lot is wrong with the game and their project planning, and I'm on your side in that regard, but in general it's kinda bad to place the blame on something not really at all related to the problem.

But as far as I remember the GT3 S2000 had the correct plates.

Alright, I see your point and agree. 👍 My stance on the game and franchise, as a whole, I once loved and held in the highest regard still stands though. I just cannot stand behind them anymore. Perhaps GT7 will be different and bring back the enthusiasm I once had for the game, we'll see. However, life is short and its just time for me to move on to a different game. (After the Academy is over) Nice chatting with you Quake.

Well Cargo,your more than welcome to come on over to Project Cars and do some driving there.
Yeah we got screwed again for the Academy,probably due to our arse backwards rules on prizes etc.
But I also have had enough of PD's lack of leadership with this game. I have defended them till I was blue in the face,can't anymore,look at PCars,error in physics, reported fixed within a week. That's the way it should be.
I'll PM you about the series I'm doing.

I like how PCars becomes the ultimate solution to GT. I have no hopes for this game, I will just see the content of it once I get it. Hype is a reason of disappointment, I think anyone can testify of this on GTP hahaha
However I am sure with the teasing PD usually does for their newer games, many will still be disappointed if the result doesn't follow..

I have been playing GT since you were a baby,so please don't think I haven't supported PD/Sony. According to your profile. So you have no hope for a game but your going to buy it? Well having played PCars on my friends PC, GT is in BIG trouble, it blows GT away in every aspect. PD has dropped the ball,SMS has kicked it in the net and the game is over.

Just to make things clear from my side, I NEVER once said PCars was a solution. I am going the way of XBOX so I can enjoy different games, including PCars, Forza, ect. To me, there is no solution, just something different as GT5 - 6 has been my one and only game, for the most part, that's been in my console. Forza will more than likely become my game of choice but we'll also see what PCars has to offer.

You are correct.

Did the ability to change the onboard mic position come before 1.18?

To see what I mean,
While driving, press START, go to quick options, below the interior view angle, you will see an option titled 'Onboard Mc Position,' with the default set to Camera View Dependent.

Came in 1.14.

– A new [Onboard Mic Position] setting has been added to the [Sound Volume] category of the [Sound] page within the [Options] screen in the [MENU] (accessible by pressing the START button). The same setting has also been added to the [Driving Options] of the “Quick Menu”, displayed before a race starts.
