At least he is still positive, and I am too.

There's being positive, and then there's working in marketing. There's stuff to be positive about, and most of the rest of the stuff he listed qualifies. Obviously I'm pretty doubtful about anything information that comes out of PD, but that's my personal view and I can certainly understand how other people find those things to be positive signs.

But PD not turning up to the largest game show in their own country (after they said they would reveal further information there) is not in any rational sense a positive thing. It's the equivalent of receiving a lump of coal for Christmas.

He's an incurable Loyalist/Optimist.
Borderline blind one as well, I'd say.
But I guess someone around here needs to be.

So yeah, when all that stuff makes it into the game, probably best GT game ever. But this is very much a "fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me" situation. I'm not buying into their hype without actual solid evidence after the way GT5 1.01 turned out.

On the other hand, you have accurately framed the reality of the situation, for most of us here.

Fixed it :sly:

There are 2 sides of the coin as I see here ..

A few of people of the opposite side of the coin here should have this ..

So far I can count less than 30 or even 20 maybe, of regular vocal poster that are on the opposite side of Ten D and Toko camp :D
:lol: I'm enjoying every moment of both sides having a ball. Some are not even answering anything related of OP question - the biggest reason for wanting GT6 ...:confused:
 
And we have a LOT of surprises thanks to the no-show at TGS.

Based on the "LOT of surprises" we had when GT5 came out, I can in no way think how that could possibly be a bad thing. After all, it certainly isn't like many of the exact same questions we had about GT5 going into November of 2010 (differences between Standard and Premium cars, career mode structure, what exactly the online function entails, how detailed car customization will be) are the things PD have been intentionally vague about so far for GT6 or anything.


So hear hear to PD skipping a media event where they promised to answer a couple of those; because surprises.

Probably because they don't have one, because the assumptions TD is throwing around as definite positives don't amount to much. Of course, if someone wants to label them as "turncoats" for that, they can go right ahead.

Merely states how the opposite should be called if Ten D and his gang are called loyalist optimists - simple antonym :P The opposite of follower/loyalist is turncoats right ? or is there a subtle word ...

Turncoats, they're fricken turncoats Tornado!

Okay, bad joke over.
I'm in the middle of both sides, I don't think it'll be the best GT, but I don't think it'll be the worst either. I'm just assuming that it'll probably be better than GT5 and maybe GT4, but that's it.
 
My only reason reason for buying GT6 is due to Forza 5 being released on a new Xbox One Game Console that will have such "Bad" features in it.

I'm not saying this as some Fanboy, as I'm just an autistic young adult expressing my own opinion on certain things, which should not be taken to seriously.
 
My biggest reason is that I like racing, but I have no goals left in GT5 and that makes it boring; the AI are not a challenge (even in a stock car with professional AI and maxed out aggression), I have all the money and cars I want, the online races are too hard to find, other than 500PP Nurburgring, but I am tired of 500 PP Nurburgring, I have done hundreds and thousands of laps around every track there's nothing left for me to do here.

So I'm ready for GT6 :) new modes, easier to race online, gotta earn some new cars, learn new tracks and physics, gotta complete that career mode :) Lots of new things to achieve.

I'm ready, whats your biggest reason? :)

The AI is not going to be a challenge in GT 5.5 either.

Well, to be balanced or something, this TGS was a strange one as it was heavily Asian-centric. There were a lot of no-shows. Only two games really sparked my interest. One was a Metal Gear Solid, the other was a Sonic game, so I was puzzled by the whole thing. Your reaction may vary.

I know. I've been referring to this place as "The Real Complaining Messageboard" on occasion, but thankfully there are as you say a small cast of darksiders who would rather kick sand than discuss why they, dare I say it, want to buy GT6. It does seem that some of them like to hunt down my posts in particular and make fun of them. I guess kicking sand is fun for some. :D

But what will be of particular interest to me are those who insisted at some point that they were done with Gran Turismo. How many of those will be posting about how they got it and mmaaaaaybeeee it wasn't tooooo bad. :lol:

Touche baby.

Perhaps I should have said:

While your stance and defense of Ten D is admirable, at this point I must conclude, that it falls more on the side of fantasy, than reality.

However, that is the one great advantage of speculation on a yet unrevealed entity.
Claims maybe made from any perspective, and are some-what unrefutable since there is no hard evidence to the contrary.

A compilation of posts in this one thread may not necssarily be indicative, percentage wise of the GTP community at large.

Ah yes, the OP.
Sony and PD have made it easy for me.
Since I don't have to buy a new console, GT6 is positioned as a buy, just by economic default.

I have taken the liberty to create a Poll just to see how the numbers fall on the question of GT6, as far as if it is being anticipated to be a great game, or not.

Most of the posters who often post criticism and vocal about GT5, are not many, I have been reading a lot of thread these past months, I count them roughly around 20 to 30 regular posters who have similar contents - about sounds, physic, AI, online, A spec, track/car. If we take a look at daily posts using latest post page, we can see how often or how many users regularly posted complaint, criticism, and generally being pessimists. Around another 20 are sporadic posters :)

I'm not taking any sides, I'm just observing several GT6 threads and I see plenty negative vs positives done by the same people over and over.

Do you think to have a valid point saying that? Since when gameplay problems like sounds and AI, can be considered no longer a problem because:

You know who act like this? Mafious Politicians. Since GTPlanet is controlled by honest people, as long as an opinion respect the AUP if users bring up valid arguments (no matter if the are 20 or 30) they are free to critic every single part of every single game and still, (breaking news) they are free to enjoy that game for what it is, at least the parts they consider worth playing.

You should try to adress the valid arguments people is bringing on the table instead of complaining about the complainers.

:lol: I am not complaining, just enjoying the show. You are making things up, too funny. I never asked anyone to stop posting, I merely shown my observation, I don't need to address any arguments, they are not worth the time, hence I never really cared to argue or debate over them, unless I am speaking to PD rep directly, that is worth the time.

My reaction to all posts both positives and negatives is this 👍 enjoy your time.

How can you couple criticism with being vocal? The two don't necessarily go together.

I count them roughly around 20 to 30 regular posters who have similar contents - about sounds, physic, AI, online, A spec, track/car.

Source?

If we take a look at daily posts using latest post page, we can see how often or how many users regularly posted complaint, criticism, and generally being pessimists.

Whether a post is negative or positive is purely your opinion.

I'm not taking any sides, I'm just observing several GT6 threads and I see plenty negative vs positives done by the same people over and over.

(Again) Whether a post is negative or positive is purely your opinion.

Is a post that defends standard cars positive or negative? Of course, the answer is relative to your own position on the matter.

Life is much easier if you don't deal in absolutes.

Wich has no real relevance when it's time to talk about game issues. If you want to stay neutral, do it. Your last post wasn't. You tried to be cleaver but you basically tried to put these 20 or 30 users in a bad light, saying they are always the same people.

Another :lol: Of course you know the source is me, myself, it was my observation, I took note of the user name when I see their posts, just for fun, comparing how many on both sides, ones being optimistic and ones being pessimistic ( both are vocal ). Those observation are indeed my opinion, just like any opinion, they don't worth much, just like positive or negative thoughts/opinion.

You can make anything positive if you are optimistic and think positive, then you can also make any good news bad news just by being gloom and pessimistic.


2 are in the count now, HKS Racer and Machsnel, from one of the group :sly: that already responded to my post about my observation. I learned a lot about many members here just by how they react and word their responses :D

That is how you feel, being in a bad light ? I haven't even mention names yet, but I'd rather not. In my list that I made, every time I encounter a similar content of post from same person, I took note of it, regardless if the post was positive or negative. It's fun research. Let me make it simple, I make notes of most active people in GT6 threads who often posts in discussion, regardless of the content is optimistic, pessimistic, negative thoughts, being defensive, complaints, criticism, or just plain troll.

So you're not a optimist or a pessimist, just a straight up liar.

And by the way, you can't claim yourself as a source eg. the sky is green (source. machschnel). See, that isn't valid at all. It should be more like this - Ridox lies (source. above quote). Get it?
 
Too funny, so I am not allowed to make observation and stated my findings because some people think I lied, call me a liar all day, I doesn't matter to me. Those 2 names were mentioned, because I just made a new list, I won't mention names from my previous notes, that's what I meant, as mentioning it will cause a lot of trouble for everyone. Look what we have now :lol: From these notes, I can better understand more of the members here, their posting style, their way of thinking, like your last post, that's one of your traits :P Stay cool.

Yeah it is pretty obvious to know who those guys are.

I am predicting GT6 to be totally awesome game. But it is nice to have lower expectations too. Can't believe people think it is going to be same or worst than GT5 for some reason :confused:

It is technically possible to claim yourself as a source.


EDIT: Is your name supposed to be german? If yes, it's wrong.
It just caught my eye, sorry.
