''What if?''

[sher_da_putt]

Taken from the Dutch TV magazine Veronica:

'Create your own special events: Not part of the Special Events, but an important extra option is to create your own special events. Sony call this “What if” experiences, like the X1 prototype and concepts cars from the seventies. Players not only can recreate races from the past, but rewrite racing history!'

So we now know that we can create our own special events and races, and ''What if?'' situations, what sort of event do you plan on making?

I would love to recreate some DTM races, from the 190e 2.5-16 and E30 M3 era.

What if you can give yourself 2 flat tires on snow-covered Nurburgring?

EDIT:

-OR-

What if I had read the post properly?

I plan on making the scene from the movie 2012 were john cusack is driving the rv away from the exploding national park. Or that upcoming movie with denzel washington and the train full of explosives is heading for that town and denzel needs to stop it. If the editor lets me i will.

 

[xNEVER-ONEx]

Well, the only 2 what if scenarios we know of are the 60's race cars and the X1.

Hmmm... I'm not sure, but it'll probably have something to do with karts and the Nurburgring.

 

[Morlow]

Will this allow us to create totally original events or just create events from the past? It would be awesome to choose your opponents and tracks and everything from scratch.

 

[Nish]

Create a Trans/Am Series race, I like the span between 1966 and 1979.

isnt this just a "pick your track and cars" with a fancy name???

 

[lpfuelfan42]

Me, I would love to have a NASCAR race at Monaco, in the rain.

 

[CommanderShepar]

I'm guessing you want unrestricted engines during that wet race?

 

[lpcjr]

What if the game is ever actually released?

 

[CRXFREAK001]

Well, I'm more worried now that like, it's towards the end of the year already, I've never seen a gaming company postpone something to release it a month or 2 later, thing is they have to give some sort of an advance if they want people to be picking up their preorders to make sure they're available to get it.


As for the What if, there's plenty of that already in GT. I'm sure I'll think of somethin' tho.

mmm 14 min lap times =D lol, I did that way back when with the bug, that was fun taking it around the ring, I couldn't do it with the Mercedes-Benz Benz Patent Motor Wagen 1886 tho, that woulda made me fall asleep lol

What if you are right?

 

[Denur]

What if you could adjust gravity and airpressure settings and create a race environment like on the moon (1/6th Earth gravity and vacuum). What would the vehicles be like for achieving the best lap times in these conditions.

^ I was going to suggest the X1 but with no air the fan isn't going to be much use so something heavy and 4wd...Veyron?


Another what if....group B rally cars on the 'ring with deep snow...the wrong way round!

You drive your Veyron. With no air I'll be sticking to something electric-powered. See you at the finish! (provided it's not point-to-point)

Doh....hang on a minute, my Veyron's starter motor will be more powerful than you Nissan Leaf so I still win

 

[Marsekay]

What if GT 5 was released in 2010! that would be amazing!

 

[Khaddar]

Thank goodness for Tesla (never thought I'd hear myself say that).

 

[Nish]

What if GT turned into one of those games where you couldn't choose your own path example- you MUST start off in kart racing and then you MUST complete the Sunday Cup etc. It would be a sad day.

 

[irnbrutwinturbo]

Exactly.

 

[jodark]

Group B Rallying

That was my very first thought. Those cars were bonkers and the tracks even more so. If they found a way to implement an AI crowd of onlookers who would jump out of the way at the last second, that would be epic.

 

[250 GTO]

What if Audi didn't win at Le Mans

 

[Ch0zander]

Recreate this. They only need to add San Francisco by DLC. It was my Favourite track in GRID. The fun starts at 3:20

 

[Denur]

What if Audi didn't win at Le Mans

Now, that would be a bit too far fetched, don't you think.

 

[Hypergolem]

What if we would get a release date?

 

[Tenacious D]

isnt this just a "pick your track and cars" with a fancy name???

That was my first impression, but evidently this set up is different than the Event Generator. It sounds to me like you can pick not only specific classes of cars, but specific cars themselves. I doubt I'd ever play with it and stick with the Event Gen, but for the history and technical addicts, this is probly awesome news.

I am tired of waiting for release Gran Turismo 5
