Learning tracks in GT Sport

Commented on 2017-10-19 13:30:51

I don't have a PS4 and no intention of getting one but this game looks sooooo fucking good. The more videos you can post the better. Maggiore is my favorite. I hope there's lots more to come.

It's a incredible visual game if ya got a 4K screen with HDR. True it's lite on the single player mode (which is just GT training school), I'm having fun with it.

6 real world tracks is abysmal. I dont know about you guys but i already know these tracks off by heart about 10 years ago or more. Honestly PD have majorly dropped the ball here. Maybe in 2 or 3 years time this might be decent.

i think this game needs to flop so changes come to the studio.

it won't. it'll sell better than the competition as it always does. it's brand is too popular.

i mean, think what you want about it's competitive approach or lack of "civic to super car" career mode, but the reviews are all saying it's the best feeling sim racer at the moment. a flop would maybe give them the wrong idea that the foundation they have is broken, when it's actually the best it's been.

i think they just need a group of vocal people complaining to them on twitter or something that they want a standard collectathon career back, but i imagine that would be present and correct in GT7 anyway so it might be wasted breath. probably easier to accept this spin off online focused GT isn't the GT7 you expected it to be and play something more to your liking instead? it's not like we're short on options when it comes to old style career modes in racers.

Bereft of content, true but it's not like it is there and they chose to leave it to package it in gt7. The reality is that PD take forever but it's not surprising when you've gone as far as modeling individual parts to the point that the cars I test actually had working indicators (that Japanese next level of detail), it's clear that nothing here is half assed and GT sport conceptually is the fastest way of PD getting their cars on the road and in our hands.

The best feeling sim racer to date? haha Korndoggy you must be extremely selective in which reviews you read, Try heading towards sim sites rather than Gamespot or Polygon ;)

This is a great review and by far the best on the net as they get it100% bang on and it's not just a 2-5 minute review they go in proper.

It's the lowest rated GT game of all time but will sell purely on those graphics, PD are smart they know they cannot compete with real sims so they go purely for the cosmetic route which of course works with casual as like you they see the shiny graphics and declare it "the best sim EVERRRRRRRR"

It's a fun arcade/simcade tilte but brandishing it the best feeling is hilarious.

Lol at korndog always finding the most hilarious ways to defend all things Sony. If the newest Forza was an always online no dynamic weather bare bones career with only standard online he would rake it over the coals but it’s ocean of flaws are magically explained away because it’s sony. I bought the game b/c I’m a racer junkie but this game is definitely a lacking title compared to what it should have been. The gameplay is pretty good but it has a lot of short comings. I really hope they leave this approach and go back to more traditional structures for GT7

The fella at the end of that first review states that it's "second to none" when it comes to the pick and play value of it. That's more or less what Korndog was saying.

I do agree though, if they are going for the accessible arcade/sim route, then really here they should have just went all out for sim, given the nature of the game they were aiming for, which is purely just racing against other people with a limited selection of race cars.

I'd much prefer it they stuck to what the series was best known for, or at least when I last played it, which was back on A-Spec, and have it as a single player experience with all the latest cars, and classics, for the petrol heads. I loved that about the originals. Picking up a second hand old banger and then souping it up, giving it a wash, paint job, some new wheels, a spoiler. Simple times, but great. Well, its obvious PD now longer have the resources to do this. The modern industry has caught them by the balls, unfortunately. I'd very much imagine that the trade off for 1000+ vehicles to have high end models with interiors would come at a massive cost, and most of all, the nice lighting and shaders and replays and all that would take a dent.

No Korndog said it was the best feeling sim racer ie closest to reality wigh how it plays. I do agree it is very pick up and play and as i said after the open beta it is a fun game to play if your not wanting to get to serious. It is the easiest sim to jump in but its not really a sim compared to AC, Pcars, iRacing etc etc which all "feel" vastly superior

This is the best looking game and I do not have a HDR TV. Sounds are huge improvement, so can't complain the livery editor is a great addition and gameplay is amazing as always. I would say this is good game that could have been great.

The cars and track are also enough. I need more GT tracks than real one TBH but le man track missing is weird. I hope that will be a free update. Daytona, laguna seca too lol. GT6 IMO had the best tracks for its time. Also we need GT mode back. Not everyone wants to play online. If they can update this game with GT mode and more content that would be great. I doubt weather and day/night cycle will be added sadly

Yet he is right about the sales thing. I want it to flop so hard. I'm not touching it because of this forced online thing and practically no proper GT single player but thankfully I knew about this since earlier in the year when they put all the info on the official website.

But you have to admit, it is still hilarious how the worst GT game ever will still probably sell more than all the Forza games released so far this gen. Such is the way with PlayStation fans and their dedication to supporting their 1st party releases (or the masses who are in for a shock when THEY find out there is no proper campaign mode in the game).

And GT has ALWAYS been the best handling out there when it comes to sim racers. How anybody can deny that is just insane.

Looks like it’s getting the same reaction halo 5 got by taking out couch co op. Seems lots of user reviews are full of people pretty irate about the changes. It’ll be interesting to see how PD react.

Yeah, excellent review. Very fair score. The next game will need to have a campaign mode and will likely score higher.

It helps that a GT release is an event Forza every year makes it alot less apealing.

What surprises me is the progress PD has made, the fundamentals of racing games is here and in spades. It is unquestionably the prettiest racer to date a sentiment I never thought I would’ve said when I saw this and forza on XBX at e3. Physic are enjoyable and there’s alot of nuance to enjoy. And it’s kind of dark soulsesque in the approach PD has taken in almost bullying you into online racing you find yourself wanting to improve in aless arbitrary way, things like no rewinds and minimal driving line are all things that encourage you to discover the joy of driving.

But all that being said I still think it is ridiculous and appaling to create a game fundamentally this good and yet neglect so many gamers.

This game is useless to any non psplus user which isn’t free by the way so add that to the cost of purchasing the game.
The game is useless to single player gamers
The game is useless if you hate online (not the same as above point)
The game is actually quite useless on a pad
The game is useless if you like car modding or collecting
