Welcome to the party! GT Sport is currently being played by a select few individuals – including GTPlanet founder Jordan Greer – before members of the public get to play tomorrow. Sony is about to flip the switch on the livestream, and to whet our appetites, they’ve released a new GT Sport trailer slightly early. We won’t spoil all the surprises (yet), but there’s a lot of new stuff in there. The still image is actually near where I’m typing this, which is pretty cool. Enjoy it!
You’ll want to tune into the livestream below to catch up on more of the details announced earlier today, as well as sneak a peak at the very first FIA GT Championship Pre-Season Test. Commentary will be handled by Jordan himself, alongside Ben Edwards, Lucas Ordonez, and Youtube personality Toniemcee.

worst gran turismo trailer EVER
It’ll be interesting to come back to this news item after the game has launched. Let’s see who is saying what then, eh?
I thought there was going to be a beta version to play.
My favourite moment from YT guy. “Mazda is a Japanese car isn’t it?” “So they [Japanese drivers in the race] know the track, they know the car, they’re Japanese. right? So they’re a perfect fit for this car, for this race”. “If they win it’s a perfect fit for that”.
Just amazing
For us photomoders that looks amazing!!!
That god damn song… Why did they put that stupid voice in it? it would probably be a pretty cool song if that annoying toddler didn’t keep screaming. :lol:
I actually like it with the voice
So after watching the trailer, I muted the sound, put the Cardigans’ “My Favorite Game” on in the background and re-watched it.
It’s surprising how much cooler that made it.
Moon Over The Castle…
Jordan’s a total pro. Sony should’ve hired him yesterday.
It would be great if they add civil city cars, jeeps and pickups to drive but not only a sport cars and especially a futuristic batmobiles of GT Vision.
I’d like to thank Jordan (and Lucas as well) for making the stream bearable.
Absolutely agree. That YouTube guy just grated nerves to no end with how clueless he sounded and how he tried too hard to seem like he was the one in control.
Just had a chance to skim through it and I can’t agree more, Jordan looks like a total professional and the YT guy was absolutely the wrong pic for that role. No one but an enthusiastic, knowledgable fan of the franchise who happens to speak professionally should have been in that role.
Jordan likely could’ve handled the entire stream better by himself. I almost pmsl as Jordan tried to cue him into looking at the camera more, but the guy just kept staring at Jordan as if the camera wasn’t there. Then, he almost went full racist as he started talking about “Japanese cars, Japanese track, Japanese game, and the Japanese racers being a perfect fit”. Jordan was understandably at a loss for words, but held it down and changed the topic. I was actually surprised at how long it took them to remove the oblivious YouTube guy.
I was actually very impressed with what I have seen today, I think that some others on here are being a little harsh and jumping the gun with the criticism. I sore improvement in nearly all areas.
Audio: Didn’t get to hear the sounds as clearly as I would like but from what I heard it sounded like a huge improvement over GT6. The Toyota, Chevrolet and Jaguar GT3 cars sounded really throaty and thick sounding. The BMW sounded far better than it did in GT6, in GT6 the audio for that car was just weird, in GTS it sounded pretty nice.
Graphics: People are saying that it does not look much better than GT6 but to me it looks heaps better. On the nurburgring the are no blades of grass on GT6 what so ever and the texture detail is quite low in comparison to GTS, the trees and foliage have seen a huge improvement. GT6 looks fantastic in the trailers but in actual gameplay there’s a noticeable difference in comparison to GTS.
Racing: Nice to see the single file/60mph rules when crashes occur, it’s a sign that GT is going into a more serious direction.
Livery editor: Nice addition, it’s something people where waiting for and it’s nice to see PD trying to deliver on that. I am looking forward to creating my own racing livery.
No standards: YAY! it’s fantastic news that all of the cars in GTS are full PS4 detail, the standard cars really brought gt5 and GT6 down. I understand it brings more choice but why would i want to drive a PS2 era car in a modern game.
Physics and Damage: Obviously not able to speak on the driving feel and handling of the cars, it is a shame there was no damage but I am interested to see how it turns out.
Overall I am happy with what I have seen today, looking forward to November.
That’s what is ridiculous to me. I don’t get how people can judge graphics from youtube videos. Especially this generation which is all about nuance and detail. If the graphics don’t slap you over the head with some kind of flashy unrealistic effects, people just assume that the game looks like a PS3 game.
Frankly, anyone that doesn’t realize how bad youtubes quality is even at 1080p shouldn’t be judging what ANYTHING looks like period.
Youtube 1080p= 5mbps video bitrate. The actual game= around 150 mbps video bitrate.
I don’t have problem with the visual, It was really great but nothing mindblowing. I’d probably buying a ps4 right now if it wasn’t for the sound. I guess my expectations were just too high. -_-
“why would i want to drive a PS2 era car in a modern game.”
Maybe because some of us want the OPTION to drive a lot of cars?? Don’t deny me the choice to ask for the OPTION to do that, please.
To add one more thing to that, let me add that I’d also love to have those PS1 and 2 era tracks. I want ALL the legacy tracks from the Gran Turismo games in GT7. I’m sdure they will get a facelift as well as those Standard cars.
This game was created from scratch from the ground up, looks pretty stunning to me, and you’re talking about Standard cars and tracks…lol.
Eww those car sounds why PD why?!?
I’m not impressed with GT Sport. I mean It looks sounds and feels just like GT6. The sound certainly hasn’t been improved like they promised. This is the PS4 where is the graphics at. It looks like something that can be played on the PS3. I love this series I have since it first came out. This is the game that got me into gaming so I have that special love for it. But this is a serious let down in my book. I expected a Ton more out of this. I can’t believe I’m saying this but Forza 6 is better.
I can’t believe you are saying it either, especially since you haven’t played the full and final product.
You do realize this is a racing game, right? Usually you have to play them to judge them, let alone know what they feel like. You’ve done neither.
You two are right I shouldn’t have said feel. What I meant by that is that the whole thing except for the UI looks like GT 6 and I know the game isn’t all finished. But at least I should see a major difference between 6 and Sport and I just don’t see a major difference.
That’s because there’s no major difference in between PS3 and PS4. If you know what to look for, you can see the improvements.
I’m sorry but there is quite a big difference between PS3 and PS4. PD has optimised with GT6 what the PS3 is generally capable of. I don’t expect the graphics to be vastly improved therefore, though I do think it’ll be smoother and far richer.
Have to say as much love as I have for GT, it’s pretty much all sentimental at this point for me. Last year I got tired of waiting for a PS4 GT game, and jumped to Forza/Xbone. After seeing this trailer, I have no regrets. First off, I heard not one car sound in the whole thing, which tells me it’s likely the same old hash otherwise they would be touting it, (I could be wrong). Turn off number 2, the physics look the same as GT6 to my eye, which while not bad, comparing GT6 to Forza 6 side by side, is like comparing captain America to a Zombie Captain America, they’re both powerful, but one is just… Lifeless.
But they finally got a livery editor!
I really look forward to the next GT game after GT Sport, hopefully by then they have a fully fleshed out car list etc. and give Turn 10 a real run for they’re money.
Anyhow that’s just my two cents.
Hope everyone already on PS4 loves it!
They’re money? You mean, their money?
So these races we’re watching…those are the best gran turismo drivers in the world? Or are they just average players? I thought I heard something in the commentary about how good they are or something. Seems like there’s a ton of crashing for a game that wants to be recognized as online worthy and FIA endorsed. ????sure does look pretty though. And sounds good.
My thoughts exactly. I’d think they would have been told to keep things under control for the demo, but doesn’t look like it. Half the field would have been eliminated so far if this was real racing. This seriously needs some SNAIL style stewarding.
Last comment was about the 5 lap Nordschleife race, but there’s been a lot of contact in all the races.
Very cool that a flagging system is included. Obviously, none of these guys have raced SNAIL.
They are all using a new helmet, but they are all using the same basic design with different color schemes.
flikering shadows means same graphic engine….
Thanks. You must be a game developer so we appreciate you sharing your knowledge with us.
Did anyone else notice that at the beginning of the stream, they showed a qualifying leaderboard and in the top right corner it said “Seattle Short”. That must mean Seattle is in GT Sport right? Would make sense considering that trailer they released a while ago that had a quick snippet of Seattle with what looked like highly upgraded graphics.
Also they had a pace car on track for a rolling start, but that might have been set up as it was listed as one of the cars in the race…
I’m pretty sure the pace car wasn’t set up. Look at the way it darted into the pits, to me that looked scripted rather than it just being another player controlling it. Plus, wasn’t there still 16 cars in that race in addition to the pace car?
So I double checked, and there was only 16 cars including the safety car, however, the name of the safety car was “safety car” which to me means that it isn’t just another player because lets say the player created a profile named Safety Car, the leaderboard would say “S. Car” rather than saying “safety car” because if you look, on all the other player names, their first names are initials. I guess it’s not impossible that it was a human controlling it, but I’m getting the impression that it is AI controlled.
Plus the way jordan talked about the safety car made it seem to me like it was AI controlled
When is all done this game is going to be a Masterpiece.
I hope you are right but right now, I’m skeptical they only have 6 months left to polish the game.
This Looks great to me.. can’t wait for it to come out…
Guys, this is only at 50% completion! I doubt it is representative of the final completed game when it releases later this year! On a side note, sound and photo mode are baes <3
I mean, the game is only 50% complete
its not possible…game developing pipeline does not alow you to finish 50% of a AAA game in less than 1 year
They haven’t been clear about what exactly kaz meant by 50% but I’m thinking he means that right now the game is only 50% optimized. Meaning they still have a ton of more power they can squeeze out of the PS4. Some dev’s do that sort of thing late in development.
For example, the beta of battlefront which came out only a couple months before the actual game had bad performance, 40-50 fps, but then the final version of it ended up having almost flawless 60 fps performance even with full 40 player servers.
He said the same **** about GT6 just two months before it dropped:
https://www.gtplanet.net/gt6-80-percent-complete-gt7-coming/
I’m expecting it to be 100% complete when the final DLC for it drops, sometime in 2018 perhaps. 100% 6 months away would mean they’ve worked for it for six months. 100% 2 years away, meaning they’ve worked on it steadily for two years thus far, sounds more reasonable to me. Still, hoping for the bulk of inprovements and optimizations to be done come this Nov.
Am I LITERALLY the only one here in the comments with a positive opinion on this??
No, it’s just that the vocal minority are making their presence known…..
It’s awesome that good is happening!
I am fairly optimistic about GT Sport but the sound really pisses me off -_-
this looks dissapointing….visually driveclubs is the king, the gameplay looks really good, i dont see any kind of damage wich is not weird with this franchise, the tracks looks flat and poorly improoved not to mention they look life-less and with bad looking vegetation.
livery mode!!!!! yay!!!
Shame! Shame! Shame! Shame! Shame!
I domt mean to be the party pooper here, but anyone else fairly disappointed so far? The game looks like a high res verison of GT6. Ive waiting so long and have not pulled the trigger on Xbox1 and Forza because I wanted to see PDs hand, but now I feel more confident with an xbox now.
Well its only half done, im going to hold my judgement for now
How long will you hold off? Ive held off for so long, there comes a point when you just have to decide (or get both!). Horizon 3 is will be shown at E3 soon, and Forza 7 will no doubt be shown next year. Ive seen PDs hand and I am not overly giddy right now, thought photomode looks A-MAZING!
I’ll be in Assetto after this exibition. They had time, money… and delivered this crap.
Embarrassing and disappointing.
Shouldn’t you know by now that you can’t judge a racing game from watching it??? Forza may look enticing with its slick presentation and beastly car list, but trust me and anyone else that’s tried it, it’s pretty bad with a steering wheel and with a controller. Racing games are all about gameplay, and GT has always been vastly superior in this regard.
Plus, it’s not like GT is all you have to play on PS4. Don’t forget about the other great racing games on PS4 like Driveclub, pCars, Assetto Corsa (soon), Sebastian Loeb Rally Evo, etc. and amazing non racing games like Uncharted 4 which is frankly the best new game of this generation so far.
Also, there’s tons of rumors that Forza is going to PC with Horizon and Forza 7 so you could always play them there.
DID the GT Planet guy just say that Photomode started in GT5? WTF. It was in GT4…
Sigh…. Still the same LMP1 cars from 2007-2011…
I was expecting the new E-tron.
Looks amazing. Sure graphics are only slightly better than GT6 but who cares, graphics and sound don’t matter, it’s the gameplay that counts. I’d be perfectly happy if there was no engine sounds at all. I’m just super excited there’s a half mile oval (even though it’s unclear if there’s any oval cars to race on it, opposite problem of pCARS). Wish they’d give up on rally, they should put rally in a seperate game because it just takes up disc space on core GT titles, same with drift. Don’t like the Vision GT cars like most other people but I guess it’s a necessary evil, since as always, any GT game will be 10x more fun to actually play than any of the other racing sims. Livery editor looks like a step in the right direction also.
….though I must say that photomode with unlimited cars is HIGHLY excited!
Thing is though, the gameplay looks outdated as hell. No damage in a modern day sim? Get outta here. The driving looks nowhere near the visceral experience that real racing is. I see no night and rain races in that trailer. And so on. Except for the cool livery editor, it looks to be the same old – on track. The photo mode might be brilliant, but t me that is just fluff that I rarely use. The truth is on track and thats where GT has been stumbling compared to its concurrents for years now.
Aaw no livestream
Livechat*
Was that…
Did I….
Livery editor?
Jerome
Yes…..yes you did!
Look wise, nothing spectacular. I’m sure it will be better than previous games. But it still looks like it’s behind compared to other racing games. Looks PS3 still. Hopefully I’m wrong.
You are very wrong. Just on resolution alone it looks nothing like PS3.
It didn’t look impressive. That’s all I’m saying. I hope the final results will be better.
That petrol station photo mode location looks VERY similar to the one about half a mile from the Nordschleife straight. Lots of photographers and car fans gather there to catch a glimpse of cool cars filling up there (and hopefully burning rubber when done!)
Can anyone confirm?….
Yes sir!
sounds??? 2nd trailer with no sounds
Watch the stream.
And of course we already have whiners and complainers in the crowd. Guys, it’s Gran Turismo! Be happy they are making good games and not Arcady crap like some other companies. For the REAL GT Fans we care about the cars. Gameplay looks great, cars look beautiful and best of all ITS GRAN TURISMO! Enjoy it or don’t. I know I will :)
I bet people are losing their :censored: over the livery editor.
Owww you know they are. Personally idc about adding stuff to my car as long as the gameplay is good and the car graphics I’ll be fine driving them stock looking. Lol
Yep, I lost my :censored:…..
Sorry, nothing like buying PS4 just for this like PS1, PS2, PS3… It’s over for me, just the same rendered cream and even if, not convincing this time. Bye, GT…
You know this is like a Big Demo? :)
You’ll still buy it.
Been playing GT6 for 2 years no2 and I agree with you. GTS doesnt blow me away, definitely loos samey from PS3. I think for me at this point, I am making the right decision with Forza and Xbox.
I have ps4 already, so why no to buy, gt deliver it’s physics as best possible for the time of release… My only concern is modern cars (I like classic) and tracks, I need a challenge, hard tracks with rally and drift variations.. Not boring ovals or same tracks for 10 years, old tracks should never be gone in the first place, it should have like 100 tracks to drive on… Anything less will be disappointing, just because of that… I know this is something like prologue, then again, if gt7 will release on ps4 when ps5 hits, it’s like a death sentence for gt, and most people will be angry.. They need to figure out it on time. Collaborating with Sony..
Bye, no one cares. Back to your Forza.
I´m prettey curious what they did with the sounds?
From what i can tell, they sound a lot better and similar to how the Vision GT cars sounded towards the end of GT6’s DLC support.
Yeah look im sorry but this trailer was flat out bad.
Yes the photo mod is nice, the fictional cars break the rules, no car sounds raises serious questions, tracks are lacking in detail massively, grass somehow looks worse compared to gt5.
Aww i really didnt want to be disappointed, i was seriously hoping this would be the force that pushes me to get a PS4. Its not
I’ll wait for reviews in November, this majorly derailed the hype train for me.
first@
No.
Hmmmmm…looks awful lot similar to gt6….tracks still look bland as ever….
