Finally we get to race in the wet, now will the Real Driving Simulator also have cosmetic damage?

GTS has that already, Tokyo tracks at night in the wet look great.

I remember many years ago it was said that the manufacturers didn’t want their cars shown damaged.
I don’t really get it because plenty of other games do!
I think we will getting dynamic times of the day too

Not sure the PS4 can do the dynamic times of day and 16 car grids online, I guess it may show up as a driving challenge..

[Stussy]

Yes, no double there will be some PS5 only bits

[T5SOR]

I just need a black PS5 released now and I will pull the trigger!

You can get them in black if you don’t mind it being the driveless digital edition

For noisy PS4's buy this and take off cover and give it a blow with some compressed air - its virtually silent after!

Its really easy to do.

Mine was like the inside of a hoover...I cover the PS5 when its not being used, apparently the latest PS5's have a new fan design..

Might need to invest in a PS5 now

Very very excited about this! I hope the Race Modification feature comes back alongside all the tuning stuff, was always a treat to see your carefully tuned stock car transformed into an official liveried version.

I'm excited about this for nostalgic reasons, will look forward to the inevitable GT hype train and I'm going to enjoy seeing how many of the series clichés continue:

In November Polyphony Digital announce the game is 60% complete and on target for the release date.
Kaz says it'll be released 'soon' after the 2022 date is missed.
No dynamic weather / time of day because they "couldn't do it accurately enough".
No damage, same reason.
They once again remodelled all of the cars from scratch and did them to such a high polygon count that the assets will be good enough for the next generation. As such there's only 120 cars
AI hasn't changed.
Can now play GT1 inside your garage on a virtual PS1.
No grid starts.

I've been somewhat spoiled by the customisation options in Forza Horizon 4 so I hope GT goes a little further than previously. I doubt engine / drivetrain swaps will ever happen though.

The release trailer having remade bits of the original GT intro video was nice too, such nostalgia

Any list of cars made available?

Once the 2nd gen Honda CR-X with the B16A1 engine is there...I'll be happy

Thanks for that.

Not a great list of cars so here's hoping they include more cars from the 80s/90s in there

[TommoAE86]

I'm not sure that list is very good, at the very least they'd be expected to have the ones in GT: Sport.

Anyway - I'm really happy with what I'm seeing so far as much more focused around single player gameplay, wasn't planning on getting a PS5 but I think I might just have to when this comes out

still a while off yet - and expect a number of patch updates post release too,

i might start trawling the webby for used ps4/5s - as i migrated to xbox a while ago (well since ps3)

That's only a list of the cars that have been spotted in trailers, I would have thought all the GTS cars will be in there, 20 player lobbies have been confirmed.

[Geffg]

Does anyone know if you can race on real roads with this game or is it just track based?

Hope so, there’s some fairly big glaring omissions on that list plus only single digit variations on Skylines and Supras? I think not.

This will be a special day indeed.
