This is it, folks: Polyphony Digital has finally published the complete and comprehensive list of features in GT5. A quick scan actually doesn’t reveal any major bombshells that most of you regular GTPlanet readers don’t already know, but it’s a nice overview, regardless. Start reading here on the official site.
See more articles on Polyphony Digital.
>implying this game is actually a good enough step up from prologue to warrant updating to 3.50
Suck Fony!
where the hell is Grand Canyon?? And the older rally tracks?? S1600 rally cars? 2011 WRC CARS?????????
the WRC license is just for the 4 new WRC cars????????
SKODA Octavia and fabia WRC? Peugeot 307? GroupN cars?????
disappointed.
There was a ton of cars missing from GT3 aswell, the next GT to appear on PS3 should fill in the gaps.
By the way, I was at troll city … I mean IGN.com and MAN the stuff people are saying about GT5 is LAUGHABLE. Some even went so far as to say NFS: HP is BETTER all-around than GT5!!! Of course Forza 3 is “better” is also mentioned quite heavily.
Its called jealousy, its easier to talk crap then it is to admit your wrong and call GT5 what is, the best most feature packed racing game ever. Let em hate, why their busy playing Forskin and wishing their mommy’s and daddy’s would get them a PS3 so they could get GT5, we’ll be playing the best racing game ever, end of.
I post on ign quite regularly. Go the Gran Turismo board. People there are sensible. Where you are going are pretty much the fanboy lobbies.
On a side not I find it interesting that they say this, indicating more updates and leaving us a glimmer of hope that some updates containing more features will be made available:
“*The service for remote race is planned to made available in December 2010.” aka. update coming December
There is definitely downloadable content. The CE has codes to put in for dlc. I sure can’t wait to see when new cars start popping up. Koenigsegg, the VW Scirocco R (weird this didn’t make the game but a VW bus does), Caparo T1, Ascari A10, Caddy CTS-V sedan+coup, Audi RS4 (the last one), RS5, TT-RS (heck Audi’s performance lineup period), Aston Martin V12 DBS (PLAIN weird this isn’t in the first cut); there is a LOT of dlc opportunities. I sure hope PD FINALLY gets Porsche. The Carrara GT, Cayman S, 911 (pick one) would be AWESOME.
I sure can’t wait to see when the ridiculous prices start popping up.
I mean, if it’s $3 for a T-shirt in Home, how much for a car?
Suck Fony!
I also received an email from GameStop. A few more hours, YAY! I’m so excited I think tomorrow it’ll be a long day at school.
Ha n00b no school for me till Monday
Ouu yes first the school, then my english class test on friday and then i hope GT5 lies in my post box or the courier will give it to me personal. :D
p.s. my calender swapped to 24 November. GT5 Day begins
“wheels cannot be changed on standard cars” :-/
yeah that blows.. maybe there will be a spec II update like in prologue
I hope that they change that with an update. we should be able to change wheels on all cars
Welp! That has to be a typo, surely they mean Premium. Why would you even change the wheels on the premium exotics? :@
Well, it took me over an hour just to read through the list of features – I think this game should be worth my sixty bucks :)
The track creator looks pretty interesting – a couple of the themes will include elevation changes, which I was hoping for. Eifel is in the area of the Nurburgring, and Mt. Aso is on the perimeter of a volcano.
I have just received, at this moment, a text message from GameStop. It says: Your Gran Turismo 5 order avail Wed AM. GREAT!!!
Same here, about an hour or so ago. US Connecticut.
Text message in hand.
Just received a pre-recorded call from GameStop, “will be in tomorrow morning”, off to change underpants!
So how many will call their B-spec dude “B. Bob”
can you pick up your own name or are there standard named B-spec Bob’s?
I shall call him Squishy and he shall be mine, he shall be my Squishy.
ill name him C. X. Goatse :P LOL
Just you
Only preset names for B-spec drivers
@Rios
*squishy goes too slow*
Gah!! Bad Squishy! Bad Squishy!
Very nice that we’ll be able to repaint a car once we’ve bought it. I always wanted that feature in GT4.
So we can respray cars once we’ve purchased them?? In any colour or only factory colours?
It says “Personalize your car by painting the body a custom color.”
One of the trophies was for collecting all 256 paint colors. It seems that the colors are selected from certain cars. I would have liked to have a color wheel (such as those found on any computer paint program) so we could make our own custom colors… or the ability to use a color on any car in the game, but it doesn’t seem like that will be the way that it is done for GT5.
Yeah cause 256 colors just isn’t enough, ungrateful.
^^^
It depends on how many different shades are included. If it’s 87 versions of red, then I’ll be saddened. That would end up being like the 1000+ GT5 cars… you think it’s cool until you find out that the number includes 157 Nissan Skylines, 128 Honda NSXs, 142 Mazda Miatas/MX-5s, and 393 versions of the Subaru Impreza and the Mitsubishi Lancer.
WHOA LESS THAN AN OUR REMAINING!!!!!! (on gt website!)
YAWN
on head tracking:
“This feature is only compatible with the interior dash view of Premium Cars.”
F*** A MONKEY!!!!!!!!
No hood-view and/or cockpit-view for all cars and the disappointed track-list is unforgivable.
The other things are amazing!
Really? You find the tracklist to be amazing?
i say its unforgivable, the other things are amazing.
They are honest about the tracks saying “some tracks feature…” but they make no hint about the two classes of cars. If you bought the game assuming that all cars would have “the incredible cockpit view camera” etc I think you’d be pretty pissed. I’m not bitching about it personally but look how deceptive it is not to specify that only 20% of the “ONE THOUSAND CARS” are “as advertised”. Just saying.
Not really sure why they can’t give us a hood view for all cars, that’d my preferred view, prey for updates
Meh!
“*Images shown are from a pre-final version of the game.”
lol even PD doesn’t have the final version
Does any body know how to play your own favorite songs? – i cant find it..
yes you go on the seting and lookon the audio and there you have choce music or active you music, but you have to selec a album to play. I hope it will help you because the game is in french so i try to transelt. Good luck
Any body having trouble redeeming the code for the STEALTH CARS ??? mine wont work
It’s probably because you got the game before it was released; I’d wait until tomorrow and try again, then.
Oh darn…you can start B-Spec remote races on gran-turismo.com, but you must have PS3 turned on and GT5 set to remote race screen. It makes perfect sense, of course…but that means I can’t do 6 hours remote races while I’m sleeping every night. ><
I don’t think the list is complete exactly. The Stig Challenge was missing from the Special Events page. Wasn’t it announced that it would be there before? I think they are hiding some surprises…
You will notice compared to earlier screenshots, there are quite a few more choices on the events page, I’m sure if you scroll right there will be more
Mechanical damage? dlc?
no youtube upload feature?
or i couldnt find it
Soooo… no leaderboards then?
I wouldn’t get too excited because PD have missed one very important feature. The fact there is no leaderboards is laughable. Even bog standard arcade racing games have these. I really don’t understand it and im afraid PD haven’t moved with the times. Lets hope an update will provide these otherwise I shall be extremely disappointed. Sorry but only having private/open lobbies is very basic these days!
No leaderboards??
I have been looking like mad and they arent mentioned anywhere. Impossible!?? How can it be?
There was leaderboard on Prologue so why not in GT5?…
GTHD had leaderboards, did it not?
ah relax. they probably didn’t mention it because they don’t see it as much of an important feature as it’s almost standard in all online games at this stage. they wouldn’t leave something like that out… (i hope)..
One would ‘hope’ that Polyphony Digital would have included something as basic as a leaderboard, but they disappointed us before… and I’m sure they’ll do it again.
They have leader boards
Yes!
17 hours LEFT!!!!!!!!!! YEAH!! OHH YEAH!! YOU ARE ALMOST HOME BABY!!!!
Can anyone confirm whether we are able to bring credits over from GTP to GT5 the way you could from GT3 to GT4? I’ve searched the forums and can’t find any info at all on it.
AAHH 2 hours 14 minutes! :D
I saw that some french magazine made a test about GT5 and they just gave GT5 70% ???
I thought i read wrong… it´s disappointing…
I hope i will get my copy this days i pre ordered it at a german online seller. I´m sure GT5 is more worthwhile than the tests will say!!
GT5 ++24.11.2010++
They also broke the embargo posting a review before they could have delved into the online features, complained about GT5 being too difficult and only aimed at GT/sim players, oh, and marked it lower than GT5P.
Yeah…agree. Finally when the whole game is unlocked with all its features they can judge about it and grouse! Its a racing game which is specified on real time physics and graphics of the cars. They complain about some 2D trees and some shadows which show some steps. A game is made by humans and we aren´t perfect..so some defects aren´t to take so seriuos! Also complaining about sounds is ridiculous. Some cars haven´t so great sounds, but the sounds of the V8 and V12 and the rest are made the best they were able to.
Just look forward to play my favourite game!
