    seasonals were the only thing ive been playing last few months,missed last 1 wont be doin these either,gt5 just got boring for me,

  2. Beafy17

    GT5 needs more challenges in online seasonal events, like the ones in special events, the ones in GT4 were the best,

  3. Amac500

    I really hope they are planning to do something here for the 80th running of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, that would be terrific.

  4. Amac500

    Ya know, I just want an update from PD. Wether they are or aren’t working on GT5 anymore, I wish they would just make an official release letting us know.

    1. Pit Crew

      Lesarthe is another popular track that is light on ASpec events. Aday to night seasonal has yet to be done so thts why I threw it out there forgive me for adding my input.

    1. TokoTurismo

      Oh brother. That is in fact, researchALLwars’s idea for a Event Creator. What’s you and Progress823’s problem. >:(

    2. researchALLwars

      what is this “forza” you guys speak of? Can I try it out at the local mall arcade?

      ; ) thanks Toko, you just earned yourself a fully tuned Premium vehicle of your choice. Tell me what you’re currently missing and it’s a done deal.

      Seriously guys. Event Creator. You wouldn’t want this easily added feature? You like these boring “chase the rabbit” sessons? Haha, and I’m the lost soul…

  5. researchALLwars

    This and some custom garage folder options….. hmmmmm

    Event Creator Choices:

    –Choose the Tracks for the series (including order.. duplicates should be allowed)

    for each track, choose:
    -Time of day/Time Progression including Weather/Weather Changeability/Surface water
    -Laps
    -Qualifying / Set Grid Manually / Random Grid
    -Standing / Rolling start
    -Penalty Level

    next screen, choose:
    –Your car

    –Field size (2-16 cars)

    –A.I. cars (choose individually, by PP or HP or Weight high and low limits, by Drivetrain, or by ‘class’- Touring Cars, SuperGT, Kei Cars, Sports Cars, Wagons, Supercars, Classics, LMP, Multiclass, etc… It would be ten times cooler if we could *create and save a Class- for example being able to choose from our garage AND the entire car list of gt5 to create a grouping of what you, personally, would call “Classic Sports Cars”. Save this class and it will be in the list until you decide to modify/delete it.)

    –A.I. group or individual Tires (sometimes you just don’t want that Ford GT to run away from the pack by 2 miles. Seriously. That ish is boring. I’d rather hang out and battle the pack than chase the rabbit.)

    –A.I. group or individual Difficulty (1-10 like arcade mode)

    –Tire wear, Fuel depletion, Grip on wet/off track, Slow Car Boost, Slipstream on/weak, Visible/Mechanical damage off/light/heavy..

    –Finally, you decide points awarded for each finishing position/ or use the pre-programmed formula. Creating and saving different Points Systems would be nice.

    –Prizes will be selected by a program that factors the total difficulty after all options are set- hopefully not by PP alone, as we’ve seen the crap results from that method (generated opponents in arcade, anyone?). Tire selection and # of races + race length should play big roles in deciding prizes. How about helmets, suits, car tuning parts, rare paint chips, and car tickets of all levels?

    –GO RACE!

    1. TokoTurismo

      “PD are the best developers ever.”

      Fixed. :)

      And yeah. Just because theres no DLC you’ll say that? Whaaaat??? Okay there. Sorry to say this to you homme, but you NEEEED, a brake from the GT series for awhile if your gonna say something like that in GTP. Just sayin. U_U

    2. Foxiol

      PD has a different mind. The real truth is that the game is not for you. Not all people loves simulators even on PC and they still play other games like NFS Shi*t or others.

      The game was not made for you and not even for me but i can like it or not as it is. And i like it but also i know that has some things wrong that i want to see better in the future.

      Just think for 5 minutes which games are the ones that you are still playing after 1 and a half year of the actual release…;)

  6. BHalpen

    Honestly, who cares anymore? It’s nearing the end of April already, and North America still doesn’t even have the Japanese update for shared online photos… let alone any other special improvements.

  7. Escort mk1 yum

    I think gtworld and Facebook pages that run gt5 stuff and keep gt5 alive should get a medal from kaz, because if it wasent for this app, and Facebook, this game would of died a long time ago

  8. Dionisiy

    Kazinori`s Twitter: “そろそろ「GTアカデミー2012」のプレスリリースが出る時間です。”
    “Press release is a time of “GT Academy 2012″ is out soon.”

  9. Stebbo999

    Anyone else think the times allowed in the latest seasonals are far to easy to get a gold with unrestricted cars. Example being people using the chaparral 2J around the Nurb. I remember the early seasonals being much more restrictive with the entry requirements and limiting tyre selection. This made for far more rewarding racing which took time instead of doing one lap of each track. Getting gold and only playing for 15 minutes.

    1. mr_pepps

      It’s up to you not to choose a maxed out car you doofus. This way the game caters for all; crank ’em up and max the power if you’re a lame racer, or turn the power down if you think you’re up for a challenge.

      I think this event’s excellent and with the two Nurb’ seasonals available I’m happy as Larry :)

    2. Stebbo999

      I wouldn’t say golding the whole game makes me a lame driver. We can have an online race and I’ll show you

    3. Progress823

      All of the top times were done with 2Js…. Screw that!! (whipped out 585pp Zonda R and cruised to 6:44.243)

  10. chevelleSS396

    In the real world wo uses crappy non grip tires for racing? Aren’t you suppose to use sticky tires to extract the best performance out of the car?

    1. GLP

      Depends on how many laps you want to do, for a five lap race racing softs are quickest but far from realistic in my opinion. Cars on sports hard let’s you feel how the car handles and how much mechanical grip it has rather than using tires that have super glue on the tyres. Comforts are maybe a bit too slippery but more fun than racing softs, imo. Racing softs let you drive like a moron and still make the corner.

  11. TomBrady

    BOYCOTTING THE SPA EVENT

    How dare they leave the friggin tires unrestricted? So lame. racing soft tires are for noobs, NOOBS!!!!!!!!!!!!

    1. Pit Crew

      @ TomBrady Try participating in a 11 race league series where even the host is using Racing softs 3 rounds traction control weak penalty (Ghost Overtaking) AND weak boost. I went with Race Hards no aids and pure setup and managed 3 podiums but no wins the host/league starter won 8 of 11. imagine that. Suffice it to say I probably wont be Participating in Summer series.

  12. tillbot8

    Yea Toko I totally agree! But why only 2 events? I’m no programmer so if it takes a long time to implement then that’s fine I am grateful for what we get. But if its not, how about 5 or 10 TT’s at 1 time, how about specific cars, manufacturer,era TT’s etc. If none of this can be achieved PLEASE bring back the 5 race seasonal. The Lambo race with the sun setting in Toscana was heaven! How about some more of that! And yea I dislike the way we have so many versions of Chamonix yet it is so rarely implemented into racing events. It looks fantastic and it’s lonely. Lets hug it by rallying the s**t out of it.! PD my faith in you is rising!

    1. Quakebass

      Yeah, I want the diversity back in the seasonals… and less B-Spec, which we’ll probably get next week. More seasonals is a better answer, though; it’ll give us more to do each week. An A-Spec pack with 50-200 events would be nice, or an Event generator/creator that Toko’s been requesting all this time. If an event generator/creator is added, we’d need a database for it, so we could easily share our creations. This would be good for the course generator, too.

  13. TokoTurismo

    This TT & DT was the best event PD has ever done. Was PD really listening to what we wanted? I don’t mean it as a bad thing, that’s actually good. :) If your reading this PD, thank you very much for making this seasonal. Are you able to make a Rally A-Spec seasonal featuring Toscana, Chamonix Main, and Côte d’Azur? with the PP being 550 or 600 with only modern and classic rally cars? Please and thank you? :D

    1. TomBrady

      They really need to do rally events. Ever since the introduction of seasonal events, I’ve been saying they should do rally, nascar, F1, and karting events. We’ve got all 3 except rally. We got a couple rally time trials but that’s it.

      I hate that they have no interest in rally. Why put rally racing in your game and not use?

      I hate the invisible walls as much as anybody, but I had the lack of rally events even more.

      Not trying to badmouth GT5, it’s still the best racing sim ever in my opinon (best overall, not the most realistic, don’t twist my words), but rally is one thing I wish they would do more of. I also wish they would do a physics update to the rally physics that would literally be a total rip off of richard burns rally’s physics LOL

    2. Quakebass

      I think Rally is well supported, just no that much in the seasonals. We’ve got a decent amount of rally cars (and tracks) in the game, and have two Special events devoted to it. In fact, the premium rally cars (well, aside from one) have the highest damage model in the game. I think Drifting is the least supported element in the game; theres no instructions on how to do it in the License tests, (theres a few Rally License tests) there’s no special event devoted to it, and there isn’t even any real drift-themed content aside from the seasonals. There aren’t really any drift-themed cars, OR tracks… all of the tracks are some sort of circuit with the purpose of racing, not drifting.

      Either way, most of the new or side features (Karing, NASCAR, Rally, Drifting, F1, etc.) don’t seem to be fully-fledged, or fully supported. I understand that PD didn’t have enough time to finish the game, but they seem to be updating and tweaking more of the strong points in the game, instead of trying to fix or update the issues or less supported features. I’m glad for ANY new content coming to GT5, bt it would seem that PD would be better off improving the weak points in the game, instead of strengthening the strong parts.

      Great analogy: do you fix a hole in a dam, or do you fortify the strong parts?

    3. Esgaloth

      Listen, PD doesnt do rally races because its unplasible. Real rally us single driver time trials. Its just well, 16 cars on a dirt track is menecing, just one is sound. You want rally events, get friends together online and run times laps 1 at a time.

    4. TokoTurismo

      ^ If you don’t like my idea then mind your business… l:\ If they ever did do a Rally seasonal event, and not TT & DT. You can simply not do it. DUH. Sure doing rally online is a good idea too but how much people does rally?

  14. Quakebass

    Man, it took me two hours just to figure out HOW to drift a race car… XD

    I ended up using the Premium TOM’S Supra ’97 with comfort hard tires, minimum settings for Downforce and the LSD, and transmission set to 168 MPH. Great fun.

  15. Mac K

    Maybe this is a sign of PD actually reading and listening to our suggestions? I mean, how long have a lot of you been begging for a Nurburgring TT event?

  16. tillbot8

    That was fun…. For about 10 minutes! LOL Not having a go but I went into A-Spec earlier because my taste for racing was rekindled and there really is not that much to choose from. Remember in GT3 even when the GT World Championship consisted of 10 races at 10/12/15 laps each I would love some more of that. I am long time player over 2200 races won, and I want just an excuse to use every single car in my garage (1100) in every race imaginable! Would it be hard to throw in a whole re-vamped A-SPEC with like 50-100 new events 500-1000 new races? Don’t need DLC or new Tracks I just want to race with the tracks and cars that we have.

    1. biftizmo

      Yeah i like the sound of that..50-100 Lev…and new A-Spec series …..bet its possible..we know the can implement any thing onto GT life home. .this is all you could expect from GT6…maybe premium + cars and premium tracks…in future D.L.C’s…nothing wrong with the platform we have now..no point building a complete new one…Evolution..we can rest assured P.D are still looking well into the future….

    2. Quakebass

      Seems easy enough; they’d just have to add a new tab in the A-Spec (and B-Spec if they made some) section that could only be selected if the DLC was purchased. PD should really try to put things that will breathe new life into the game, much like the Speed Test DLC did. Cars and tracks only serve as temporary enjoyment, additional features can last for ages.

    3. granddriver

      They have to fix the problems before they revamp any a spec or bspec series.

      But the fact is PD doesn’t care about the problems any more than the average person on the site. Everybody just wants to concentrate on new content instead of the content we already have working properly.

      Please go ahead and tell me how this is all going to be fixed in GT6 and I should just quit complaining. The fact is I’m not talking about GT6 I’m talking about the game we already have! I just want my favorite game of all time to work properly, for the love of God!

  17. kevboi

    What car is that in the photo? and how do i get it!

    As for the events, enjoyed these but it annoys me on pretty much every TT people use a detuned 2J race car which is always top of leaderboards, i prefer to use a car thats as close to the entry requirements as possible without having to use the power limiter. Wish PD would exclude this car from the TTs!

    1. Amac500

      Agreed, especially since the GT5 rule is that every fictional track must include an unrealistic tunnel, like it’s a country road and not a permanent circuit. Seriously, I’d rather have the elevation change with walls like a real track.

  18. i have a flat

    It’s not that GT5 isnt worth updating with DLC.there is more content that still should be UNLOCKED.I said this before and I will say it again do you really think they put one car in the Acura dealer do you think they put one car in the Spoon dealer and in the Mines dealer.people are calling these things DLC no these are things that are already in the game just locked.we didn’t download the RX-7 touring car we downloaded the ability to unlock it.PD in the beginning had that car and the other TC cars already in the game and at first we would be able to get it by simply buying the RX-7 and taking it to get remodeled using GT credits and they changed it so that we have to pay real money to buy it seperate in the dealership already built as a TC car.I love GT I’m the type of person to turn off the music just so I could hear the engine I’m the type of person to not just race the same easy money race over and over just to get payed I don’t hate the game or PD as is I’m just calling a spade a spade.for the people who are gonna take shots and my comment screw you in advance thank you have a nice day :)

    1. jimantonic

      The way I thought it worked with the DLC is that the GT5 updates/maintenence are when the cars/tracks are imported into the game, it is then after that they are able to be ‘unlocked’ by the 100mb downloads which seems to be the ‘unlock code’ as it were.

    2. RB26 2jz

      They had to make the TC’s from scratch… some of the cars they made into TC’s were 2012’s so the game didn’t have them in the first place

    3. biftizmo

      i’m not sure your totally right about this…It didn’t take all that time to make this game for nothing..considering most of the content is from earlier in the series…and so far all dlc we have has tested every aspect of the game..cars ,tracks. items.. even home screen…with new applications ..and all the menus threw out the game are fully extendable..i’m sure PD are looking well into the future with this platform.

    4. RB26 2jz

      So they had 2012 GTR black editions in 2010? I’m pretty sure Nissan didn’t even introduce the Black Edition until early 2011

    5. Quakebass

      The DLC cars are added in the updates before the DLC is released on PSN; they weren’t in the game from the start.

  19. Lambob

    Thanks PD, I know you’re hard at work to deliver GT6 on the PS4, but thanks for this TT and all you can do in the meantime for GT5.

    I realise, it probably is no longer worth updating GT5, it will take their time away from GT6, where it counts.

    Let’s stop wishlisting GT5, we can turn blue in the face folks, it ain’t gonna happen.

    1. TokoTurismo

      “Thanks PD, I know you’re hard at work to deliver GT6 on the PS3”

      Fixed. :)

      And yeah, they mind as well end GT5. It ain’t getting anyway. Lets just drop it.

    2. HarVee

      I agree with Toko. Though, I’d love to have GT5 supported until GT6, I just don’t see that happening. Hell I’ve practically already forgotten about GT5 and moved onto Forza 4.

      So I really don’t care much about GT5 anymore.

    3. jimantonic

      @HarVee:
      GT Planet: The place to check on GT5 news and then report that you have no interest in the game any more and then feel the need to inform everyonel that you also like arcade games on the XBox.
      I best be unregistering from this site then, as it appears I signed up for the wrong reasons.

    4. Pit Crew

      @Harvee; Yet you are still posting on this forum looking for info bout GT5? If Forza is your thing now why does GT still interest you? Forza must be overated if in one breath you Clownin GT5 lack of DLC or uneventful seasonals as a reason to jump to forementioned racing title but still checking GTplanet for info bout a game you claim has passed you by interest wise.

    5. MyFavoriteGame

      @Pit Crew – “Aforementioned” ….and yes, I agree with you and Harvee. For the few yrs I played Forza 2 & 3 (waiting on GT5s release)…..I honestly couldn’t be bothered with anything Gran Turismo. I Just patiently waited for its release. Then in January 2011 I re-bought a PS3 with GT5 and a DFGT.

      Was GT5 somewhat disappointing?…yes. Are there other games out there to fill the gap?….Perhaps (If you own a powerful enough PC). Are we the fans intolerant and ungrateful for expecting PD to add so much more content too GT5?… Perhaps…..or perhaps not or maybe.

      @Harvee – Forza may not be the most hardcore SIM, (but neither is GT5 compared to what else is out there), but its far from arcade. I actually happen to think its a great game to help make the frequent GT hiatuses more tolerable , And if I didn’t know better, I’d think that PD owns T10, and have them intentionally release sub par games whenever they need a distraction, Like political spinning.

    6. TomBrady

      @jimantonic
      HAHAHAHAHA +10000000000000000000000
      @HarVee
      Seriously. If GT5 doesn’t interest you you wouldn’t be on GTPlanet commenting on EVERY SINGLE NEWS POST!!!!!! You’re a liar. If you had forgetten about it you wouldn’t be checking for DLC EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!!! I’d rather you stayed on forza 4 man, something tells me you’re the type of racer who uses racing soft tires on hatchbacks and drives dirty, because obviously if you like forza that much you must not really care about realism. SO please, drop GT5 altogether. I think we will all feel better knowing you’re not online LOL

    7. HarVee

      Funny how you mention Forza and everybody has to turn into raging teenagers. Does the word Forza frighten you all?

      I swear, the word Forza is like a disease on this site, and only the strong can use it without getting sick in the head.

      And besides, I only check this site in hopes that I will find something that will rekindle my interest in this game. So far nothing has done such a thing, but I keep hoping that something will come along. And what’s wrong with that?

      If I happen to make a few comments you don’t like, so be it. You could just ignore them, and continue being brainwashed fanboi’s who of which can’t see what faults the game has.

    8. MuoNiuLa

      @HarVee: Agreed. I may not play GT5 now, but I still come here hoping that something will come that will spark my interest again. It’s also funny how people seem to forget that this site is dedicated to the GT SERIES, not just GT5. So being a GT fan, I see nothing wrong with commenting on GT5 news.

      @TomBrady: Are you seriously lumping every Forza player into one group? Grow up.

  20. Mooey42

    I went to do some drift trials to beat my friends scores the other day (that’s what its really all about) and when I went in driving options in my TVR Speed 12, I could use racing Softs… has this been changed to be like this or is it a glitch? Mind you I haven’t played GT in a while… so I may have missed an update

    1. TomBrady

      are you kidding? I hope I never have to race with you online then. How can you actually want to use racing soft?

      You’re actually gonna complain about having to use racing hard? Boo hoo you big baby. It’s a simulator, excuse PD for wanting you to play it realistically. Noob

  21. biftizmo

    There’s more than enough to keep me busy for a week ..what with girlfriend and her master chef’s and apprentice’s and such..o and having a life too..

  22. MyFavoriteGame

    I’m actually pretty excited about these…. wish my friends were more into the leader-boards tho, instead of just getting the 1,000,000 creds, don’t see the fun in that.

    1. jomama2010

      I’d rather just beat them in a race…yes I’m one of those guys that collect the money and leave haha.

    2. TomBrady

      @jomama I’m not gonna critisize you for it, but I like it MUCH better when my friends actually try. It makes thing much more interesting. It’s like autolog in NFS shift, it gives you a reason to redo stuff. One of my friends will actually tell me when he beats my time, and then I’ll go beat his until he can’t beat mine anymore HAHA it’s great fun actually and I think you should try it instead of take the money and run

    3. Quakebass

      ^ I LOVED the autolog feature in Hot Pursuit (for the same reasons as you)… but then NFS just started pissing me off. I agree; I like competing against people I actually know; I’ve got only two-and-a-half friends on PSN that I know, (the rest are all on Xbox) and they don’t play racing games that much… Even so, the other friends more apt towards racing games are always fun to compete against, and thats a big reason why I want more leaderboards in GT5 (with a “friends” tab), among others.

  23. TheGTGuy

    People need to Chill when it comes to DLC, PD will announce it when there ready and when they are people better not complain again.

    1. Quakebass

      And there’s too many duplicates, and a bunch of important or great cars missing… Mustangs and classic BMW’s are two examples.

    2. 555WorldRacing

      i agree with quakebass
      cars like the original bmw m1
      porsche 356
      epic muscle cars such as the mustang and others are missing
      the dlc is typically tuner cars and other japanese and europe and north americas contribution ignored
      we also need classic supercars like a normal miura (thats affordable) and otherr ferraris, maseratis, porsches and other exotics

    3. Quakebass

      @colt357x:

      Those aren’t really all of the duplicates…

      49 non-racing Skylines/GT-R’s (I’m including the DLC TC’s, black edition, and N24hr version, and excluding the 60’s and 70’s variants)

      21 RX-7’s/Efini RX-7’s (including DLC)

      35 Miatas/Eunos Roadsters/MX-5’s (including DLC)

      20 non-racing Honda/Acura NSX’s

      8 Mitsubishi FTO’s

      8 Mitsubishi GTO’s

      12 Mitsubishi 3000GT’s

      19 non-racing/rally Subaru Impreza’s (including TC DLC)

      That’s around 150 – 160 unnecessary/duplicated cars. (^ The total was 172, but there are a few noticeably different cars, like the prototype NSX LM, the DLC cars, and the ’07 Mazda roadster).

    4. Pit Crew

      @Quakebass Thanks for the list . When you actually see the sheer numbers of the duplicates, it boggles the mind. Just plain ridiculous.

  24. biftizmo

    Thanks P.D for the Challenge’s..that will do just nicely.take as long as you like with the DLC make sure its right.. thank you for the best game ever…not all of us are impatiently ungrateful to wait for something special..cheers

    1. nofxmike06

      I enjoy playing this game and I’m grateful they’re still releasing DLC almost 2 years after it came out!

    2. biftizmo

      There’s more than enough to keep me busy for a week ..what with girlfriend and her master chef’s and apprentice’s and such..o and having a life too..

    1. Famine

      It’s an event for race cars – it’s called “600PP Race Cars” – but racing modified cars (the Premiums that can receive the race modification in GT Auto) are excluded. The Chaparral 2J is a race car and thus eligible.

  25. GT HP Nut

    Oh my goodness, I love this seasonal event, especially the time trials and the Race Car drift event. Well done PD :-)

  26. wnw65

    Hooray, it’s time to dust my PS3 off. It’s been a month since I last played GT5. Seems there is life after Tsukuba.
    Well done PD – faith is restored

  27. Foxiol

    Wow ‘they listened to us with the Nurburgring petition’. Amazing!!!

    BUT I need to rest now and i´ll take a look later. Well i´ll race later.

    Best TT ever for sure.

    1. TokoTurismo

      They actually did listen, very proud about that. :) Good thing I did vote yes in the forums after all. Come PD, you can do it. *thumbs up*

  28. Malc01

    Best TT week ever :)

    Whos going to try the Nürburgring Nordschleife in the CR-Z then ;P

    I think that is worthy of a Lap Time Board all of its own :D

    Best update ever, been waiting so long Nurburgring to timetrials and now it’s here with another great track, Spa, too. Thanks PD!

      Yes, cant wait til PD get out of this horrid rut and stop releasing 5-10 seasonals every fortnight, 1 B-spec every 4 weeks, and only 3 A Specs instead of 5 in the A Spec seasonals AND its only once every 4 weeks!

    F. my life, I’ve had my PS3 for 4 years and a half, and now it gives me the 3 beeps treatment with my GT5 game still trapped inside…
    It’s not a overheat problem nor hdd…seems that I’ll have to pay ¥10,000+ to Sony so they’ll take 3 months to repair it!
    Merde! ( > ~ <' )

      This happened to me recently. I opened up my PS3 to get the disc out. It will void any warranty if you do this, and Sony will not take it for repair, but you will get your game back. I hear that what they repair may not be permanent, so it may just be time to buy a slim version!

      ebay search “ps3 reball”

      i paid about $80 US and i have everything back- game disk, all saved files, etc.. Been playing for 5 months on the reballed chip! (also I immediately backed up my HD on an external USB HD as soon as I got it back)

      : )

    Woa, two time trials that actually make me want to start playing GT5 again! The girlfriend can stuff her long lie, it’s on!

      Ughh. These comments remind me of a youtube video where a small kid is filmed for reaction to his birthday present. He collapses onto the ground roaring crying and when the camera pans round his present is a new bike!

      I still haven’t gotten Car Pack 3… I just haven’t had time to get another PSN card… I NEED THE AVENTADOR!
