You don't need a tablet...

This might not be the entire info. It might be much larger. Also, it seems that this is for tablet as well, and they have probably never developed for other devices before. It's a huge technological barrier.

As an aside, notice the trend? Promised course 'maker' in GT5, get generator, but then get maker in GT6, but you were promised a GPS course generator? GT7 GPS course generator confirm?

Soon

Maybe Very Soon.

finally!

Can I create track direct on PS3 (in GT6)? Like i was able in GT5...

Of course it's not easy for them, but something gone wrong in their roadmap and fail to deliver this feature at a reasonable time after the game launch.

+ they even had prepare a TV commercial ad for the course maker, maybe they rebuilt the feature from ground and that would make sense to make us wait almost 2 years.

Well i'm gonna try the course maker but I'm not too excited. We are in 2015 the PS4 has 2 years and we are still excited for an update on an old gen game...

My tablet is almost 3 years old... Time to trick the app by changing my DPI.

That's even worse, who even owns one of those things other than soccer moms with 8 year old children? They're utterly worthless, they're inferior to laptops in every way - you can't even argue that they're more compact, because a Macbook can contest them in that category.

I used to think that way. Then I used one at work. A tablet has and never will be a replacement for a full-blown laptop or desktop computer, but for simpler tasks, they're quite handy.

For an application like this, I can understand why they'd want the increased screen size of tablets. Of course, I can also understand how it'll be frustrating for those of us that don't have one.

My family is asking why the hell I'm jumping around in such craziness and happiness without answering them after I was browsing on my phone...

I mean I can't believe it...I thought we will get much less than that....I never believed it would be announced right now....

I want to stop but I just can't. ..

It looks like the same thing as GT5 but with extra fluff attached.

Not impressed.

Me, a just-turned 26 year old who has no kids and likes a alternative between a laptop or having to stare in to his small phone screen while out at a restaurant.

You can be upset without a broadsweeping generalization.

As someone that has been critical of this whole dragged-out situation, I can assure you, it really isn't the same thing.

 

[Suzumiya]

Regardless, having it only as an app, adding to that, only as a tablet-intended feature really brings this down... Then again the official website doesn't say anything about this, so we're not done yet I hope.

 

[Il_Conte_Sky]

Will the app at least be able to be used on simple smartphones? Geez, only tablets? Seriously?

 

[zzz_pt]

Great news! I wasn't expecting anything so this sounds really good. But I'll have to try it our before joining the hype. PD brought me to this level of skepticism with their announcements.

On a side note, great job to the GTP staff for getting an exclusive first look of such an important feature! Kudos to all our great Admins and Colaborators.

edit: So, only players with tablets will be able to use this? what the?

 

[Suzumiya]

It's just a first look, but may be the only look I fear...

 

[MrDrWatson]

How do I join GtPlanet group? It's been a while that I've played gt6 (haven't used the ps3 in a long time). I'm also an offline racer, my internet is slow and my few attempts to race online were received with insults, so no online races for me. Can I still join GtPlanet group?

Source? Youre saving headaches for many members if true.

 

[rialler]

Can't wait to test new tracks with my vacuum cleaners

[Manasseh257NSX]

The fact that we can add landmarks and buildings around the track makes me ecstatic!!

 

[GTPorsche]

Source is soon

That's not how this works. You either can confirm what you're trying to push as fact or you don't post it at all.

 

[kolio]

Fake. I dont believe it.

Welp, that is on you buddy.

Psshhh, I aint even got that! just an old galaxy s3!

 

[OHM_fusion]

Dayum this was not expected. Point to point tracks please?

 

[RACECAR]

Proof or it didn't happen.

 

[AudiMan2011]

P2P tracks look unlikely. Again.

On the Apple side of things, I can confirm the app will only be available on iPads. For Android, I'm not so sure, as the line between phones, phablets, and tablets is a bit more blurry, but I would expect similar limitations.
