I missed you
Just replying one more time with an update. Please excuse the spacing.Nice to see that my suggested archive link for previous threads was used in the last thread's OP.On April 3rd, I finally 100%'d the Event Directory AND finally got that fucking Bugatti invite; letting me get the only Extra Menu car (of the current 135) that I didn't own. I believe it took four months, almost to the day, since I started. Naturally, the /vgt/ thread had died, a third of the way through, just two days before.Those GT Cup (Gr.3/4) races were fucking awful, as were the remaining Clubman Cup Plus races. The BoP fuckery is one thing, but the AI is rigged against us. The BMW M6 Sprint, the Ferrari 458, the AMG Merc, the Audi R8 LMS Evo, the GT by Citroen, Nissan GT-R, and the Veyron Gr.4, and MAZDA3 Gr.4 were crucial.Funnily enough, once I got the invite-gated Veyron 16.4, it was able to win the Fuji and Watkins Glen CCP races for me at the first attempt thanks to it's great top speed. It also seems that the trick is to stay in 2nd and make a move on the final lap. Being in the lead just makes the AI absurdly faster, so players should be fine with playing dirty if need be. The Mini race at Goodwood was impossible without installing nitrous. That finally completed all event races for me.
>>520529521I enjoyed dropping the tedious Sardegna grind for a couple of weeks to finish out the directory, but sadly I will have to go back to it for a couple of months of solid grinding just to get enough credits for all the 12M+ cars. Apart from happy Fridays, doing the Weekly Challenges. I've let a bunch of 1M+ cars pass through Hagerty in the mean time, as I am still waiting to buy the '95 McLaren F1 that's likely due in mid-late April. I am still keeping to my cap of less then 150mi per day (three Sardegnas). Just passed 300M cr. career earnings.I suppose that all I somewhat care about completing now is the car collection. I am past 60% now. Also still sick about the shitty game/HD capacity for replays (on a console with a lot of free space) and having to keep pruning them.I did pop back to GT4 to start a new save. Damn, the early game is repetitive and boring without knowing the best early money races. I still remember doing all those Sukuza East races with the Honda Civic. Being able to B-Spec on x3 speed does make the grind less draining, once B-Spec Bob gets good enough. Just a shame that GT7 doesn't have a bunch of GT4/5's tracks.It's very annoying that the GT wiki has now gotten cunty about adblocking, so all those fucking obnoxious stay-in-view videos have to be allowed to block the page. Scrolling past advert banners wouldn't have been a problem, compared to that.
This TT with the chaparral is really weird.Like with the VGT, I'm not convinced I'll stay in gold when the last day of the trial drops.

Did the Michelin sponsorship just died all of the sudden with the latest update?
>Oreca>my dumbass 8yo self misread it as Orca and OreoAn Oreo livery on a Viper would look neat if Dale Jr's Oreo cars are anything to go by.
>>520530749What's your time? Are you on controller or wheel? I suppose it would be harder hug the line on controller. I got to within a tenth in two laps, and the gold time is a whopping four-tenths slower than the record. With such a simple lap the time isn't likely to drop by any more than another tenth.
Hey /g/ we had a nice run with the rally games until they went all ESG on us.
>>520608273I don't remember by memory atm, only that it was +0,46% with the fastest time and at 32kth place. I'm still learning to make the best use of the Dualsense, I drive around the edge of the track limits by the second half of the track, but refuse to go too deep before the 3rd? Corner because I fear of losing the momentum.
>>519994272kinda late butSchumacher's 94 Benetton had a V8, they didn't switch to a V10 until 1995. so the naming scheme Polyphony used doesn't fit.
>>520614924and more importantly, Benetton had the high nose design as early as 1991, whereas the F094/S has the low nose design of the Williams.
the fact that both GT7 and TXR had their updates in the same day,and both had different reactions tells you about the state of both games.and also shows the difference between Polyphony and Genki
>>520620604what did the TXR update change
>>520621478It added a photo mode and new customization optionssounds silly,but a lot of players asked for a photo mode
>>520614924>>520615223That stands for Senna (again), not Schumacher.
>>520623981I know, I was responding to someone who hypothesised it was meant to be Schumacher's championship car. I'm the anon who originally posted that it was silly to have both Senna and Hill's 94 Williams. it's the exact same car, Hill was Senna's teammate. I would've rathered Prost's 1990 Ferrari, Schumacher's 1994 Benetton, or Hill's 1996 Williams.
>>520557890Absolutely.>>520565841I tried to tune it for the Tokyo 600, but still couldn't win. Had to use a Lamborghini instead.>>520604646A lot of players have been saying that, but Michelin is still visible on cars in Brand Central and elsewhere.
>>520620604>the difference between Polyphony and GenkiI don't feel like that makes sense because they can't really be comparedGenki is an indie studio with >150 people onboard, most of them being dudes in their 40s that likely worked on the first games. They just did what they knew how to make best, and, surprise, if you used to make fun games you can still make a fun game if you just do the same formula again (this is a good thing.)Polyphony certainly has the talent for quite literally anything they wanna make, the issue is, that talent will never work on good stuff, because if the director says "make the campaign incredibly barebones, don't mind the abysmal AI, add random cars every week, don't overhaul the campaign" then what can you do about it.

My opponent seems to be flooring it at 250 while i'm just cruising behind him at 40% throttle, this race has rubberband. You can just slow down and have a nice leisurely drive, he slows down too.
Well I'll leave you to your dead thread.I'll post when there's something new.
it really annoys me that such a well-built game like GT7 uses a live service modelthat just killed the game for meit needs a gran turismo mode and some other things but they just don't care anymore
We need more shitboxes unironically.
>>520715442more than we are already getting?
>>520598638I think it's time F1 moved on from Suzuka and went to Fuji. In a perfect world both would have their place in the calendar with one being the Pacific GP.
>>520718810Can't imagine F1 would be any more exciting at Fuji.
>>520673354I thought this was Blake from RWBY for a second.
let me just remind you that Big Rigs is coming to Steam.
>>520706618who is this "they" that you speak ofthink carefully
>>520718810Fuji's only advantage over Suzuka is that it'd be easier to overtake with the current regs, but even then the only redeemable thing about it is that super long straight, nothing else to write home about.
>>520719789every race they've had there has been a showstopper. They're not going back because the facility is owned by Toyota who view F1 as poison after their failed attempt to challenge for the championship 15 years ago.
>>520706618I think it's too late at this point for a traditional GT mode in GT7. It wouldn't really be that fun to play through as you already have the cars and credits you need. They would have to do it for GT8. Only possible thing is that they keep GT mode progression separate from everything else, but they're not gonna do it.
>>520754750Toyota is slowly coming back as tech support for Haas now.
>>520757428wasn't that a JPGP-specific sponsorship?
>>520756209I don't really want a "traditional" GT mode. it's not 1999, they need to innovate it. actually take advantage of the new tech, rather than keep making the same game for 25 years.
>>520761314I don't know about that. I'd have no problem with playing GT4 again with modern cars, graphics, and physics.
>>520761201It was announced last year as a season-long technical partnership.
>>520761846because you have no faith in modern game devs to deliver on their promises or on what is theoretically possible with modern tech, so you keep your hopes and expectations as low as possible both to avoid disappointment.
>>520766323it's Italian for 'wasp'. the scooters were named that because the older models had two stroke engines that supposedly sounded like wasps flying around.
>>520766323The old Vespa scooters buzz a lot, like a wasp.
Is there a way to use the Music Rally UI in other races? I like the representation of the gears and tach in it compared to the standard UI.
>>520766649considering PD has failed to do this for 4 games in a row now (5 if we include GTPSP), why should we have faith in them to do something different?
vroom vroom
>>520782893I'm not telling you to have faith in them.
>>520800881ok. all they need to do is literally copy GT4's career mode structure and they would have a 10/10 game. basically what everyone is asking for is a remastered version of GT4 with updated physics, graphics, etc.. which is what GT7 could have been
>>520818659they would have a 7/10 game that you'd think is 10/10 because you don't think it's possible for them to do any better. your bar is too low
delisting racing games is stupid,actually
>>520821931lol.
they'll be adding more customization options to tokyo xtreme racer s-soon, r-right?
>>520843863Full game is supposed to be coming out soon.
>>520844992o-oh...
>>520506102By the Blood God, why isn't it in GT7 already? We also need more TVR's.

>>520909554Grim, I was hoping they'd push it to another year so we can have a race with the Hiace on it.

GT5's menu music is probably the best in the series.
https://youtu.be/tNNXDVslUnUI'll never forgive the Japanese.
(lust provoking image)>>520955926It's mostly just RR6 again, and the original car designs kinda aren't that good AND the game was made by a secondary studio. Namco hasn't believed in Ridge Racer to be a major game since like the early 2000s.
Namco could just bring 7 to modern hardware or even remake Type 4
>>520908880by letting them do things that technical limitations prevented on old systems. pop the bonnet, simulate the unique fiddly bits in individual cars, accurately recreate real championships. There's all sorts of things they could do that just require a bit of imagination.
>>520982362Having our own kind of Forzavista is long overdue.Even now more than ever with PSVR2 hanging around. The showroom we have atm doesn't cut it for me.
lamenting the death of the racing genre
Need new Ferrari and Lamborghini engine swaps.
>>520506102Even there's a car that deserves to be in the LCD. This is the one. I want it and the Speed 12 in GT7.
993 Turbo or RUF CTR2 would be a good addition
>>521001528CTR2 Sport plz and thx.
>>521001770>>521001528
>>521002176If GT4 car modding ever becomes a thing, I want them to add the GT2 only cars like this, the SS-III Celica and the 25GT R34 just to name a few.
>>521002938it would be nice if we actually got a new game like that
>>521009483Is this a new scape location?
>>521014080Pic was from Sport, so no.

>>521021960Wait, is that the Mercurio?
>>521030019agreed

I had a shitty run of races (partly because my teammate completely bottled one of the races, giving me no points) so to actually win the championship I had to make sure that Ravenwest lost completely on the final round. Arguably one of the worst parts of the original GRID, on the other, having to strategise beyond just "go as fast as possible for as long as possible" is cool.
>>521050295is this true?
>>521050323I still think the hypercars were even more BS than the GT races. Great work anon and good luck with the rest.
>>521050323man, i'm still annoyed by how badly they ruined GRID 2it's like they took everything cool about GRID 1 and removed it and put a bunch of bland features in their placeseriously, why did they remove the entire motorsport aspect of the game?in other news, i played enthusia for the first time today and i've got mixed feelings about it but mostly positive feelingsthe car list is fairly large, awesome and varied, the physics are pretty good, tracks are interesting and visually stunning but the entire way the career mode is setup is so bizarre it actively discourages you from using fast and fun cars, YOU get punished if other cars drive into YOU and if that happens too many times in a race, the entire race is literally pointless and not only do you gain nothing but you actually lose progress pointsit's respectable that they tried to experiment with something new but they didn't pull it off well, IMOthank you for reading my blog
>>521051042unfortunately>captcha: PGAYT
cars and stuff
>>521054964i didn't dislike Grid 2 that much because despite being a downgrade to the first game in a lot of ways,i still enjoyed the presentation of that game.in fact i think this is something a lot of codemasters games lacked after the 7th generation

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1UlI4_Jxd8s
>>521087048ROLLLLIIINNNG SSSSSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-
>>521054964What I'm more baffled about is how they kept pushing the dumbass idea of the "every discipline racing series" and never came back to having you race in actual real life racing series with a mix of real and fictional teams.Also I got stuck on Enthusia because I didn't have fast enough cars to compete in RS and once I got a fast enough car I wasn't getting enough points to rank up to be eligible for RS again, I don't understand how that game is meant to be played, genuinely.
>>521102181you need to use an underpowered car most of the time,no?
they should add the Subaru SVX
think about this for a moment,you can actually purchase and buy Big Rigs,but not The Crew.
>>521110174you can actually purchase and play Big Rigs*
>>521102181>Also I got stuck on Enthusia because I didn't have fast enough cars to compete in RS and once I got a fast enough car I wasn't getting enough points to rank up to be eligible for RS againit's such a bizarre system they came up withfrom every racing game youtuber review i've seen, you need to start getting REALLY sweaty towards the endgame and start driving basically perfectly in each race
>tuning car cup on gt4 spec ii>AI buick special fucking pulling out 55 second laps on tsukubathat shit is ct230r levels of performance for what's supposed to be a boat on wheels, my 466 HP GDB spec C wasn't enough to keep up with it>>521102647yeah but breaking out of the japanese gentlemen's agreement class is hard
>>521004861Maybe one day we will get a remake or at remaster of Zero at least.
>>521106923Seconded. It;s perfectly quirky for GT
>>521131260it was in GT,in GT2and it's also in FH5 too
but honestly i'm tired of this ''gt is all about the quirky cars'' while this is true,you have to remember that it didn't come at the detriment of adding more fan favorite high performance cars or race cars
>>521132685Watch them add the E60 M5, 812 Superfast next update just to troll you.
>>521119518How much faster was a GT300 car compared to a JTCC car?
>>521132685Kaz has a serious blind spot for 70s Japanese, unless it's Skylines. No S124a, no SA22c, no C130, no KP60, no TE27, but here's some crossovers.
>>521136830back then, GT300 was on the level of a GT2 car in Europe. so a good several seconds.
>>521143497Some of these were in past GT games, so it's not he had always blind spot for that.
beep beep
>>521170004what's interesting to me is that in the late 90s, a european prototype was a good 5-10 seconds faster/lap than the fastest japanese prototypes but nowadays the fastest japanese prototypes are a few seconds faster than the fastest european prototypes
The R390 straight up doesn't brake if you hit 400 KM/H
>still playing enthusiayeah, i can see why the game has been forgotten by timethe career has got to be the worst designed one in any racing game ever made
>>521249368<< it's time >>
>>521170004Really puts it into perspective when a current GT4 car is much faster than a pre-2011 GT300 and will run rings around the late-90s GT300s.
>>521255876Surely there is a stock NB around in Japan for Kaz to scan. Unless we get the ultra rare coupe variant as a surprise.
>>521275525WTC 600 would've been so much better if we had stuff like Super Taikyu, WTCC/TCR and Cup cars like the March and Lupo of GT4.
>>521249368>>521256543it's always time for racing
Mclaren is coming to WEC.
>>521277663>March and Lupo cup carsThey sound too slow for Gr.4.
when
>>521322530just use the more modern equivalent
>>521332446The Esperante wasn't front wheel drive...
>>521277663March and Lupo making it to 500 would be a stretch
>>521343028and it wasn't an utter shitbox either
i think EA WRC is a bit overhated.
>>521262664yeah most racing cars have gotten significantly faster. the only ones that haven't are LMPH, F1, and Indy. mostly for safety/cost reasons.
>>521372658it's DR2.0 but with the WRC license.
>>521394403and with more customization and a more proper career mode too.
>>521372658I have a rendering issue whenever I play it in the PS5 where some random patches of light will appear on the surface of the stages. Seems to be a problem that's been going for months now and Codies doesn't seem to care about it.
>>521402109yeah i can't excuse the technical issues that game has.
>>521309643There's a reason why I said WTC 600, not 700.>>521358354Hig-rev turbo and slicks easily could get it to high 500s,
I wish we had anti-lag for the turbo-converted cars and lettered tyres for the road cars.
imagined a timeline where GRID was more autistic and included Super GT as a discipline, including more GT500 cars and GT300 as well
>>521410538fug, didn't read.
I'm surprised GT never featured the Mustang GTR
>>521482845the Mustang Gr.3 is pretty similar.

I've never owned a PS2 GT game, only ever played it at friends housesplaying lots of stuff I missed out on as a poorfag kid, which one is better, 3 or 4?
>>5215041144 has more content but i would suggest playing 3 first,as GT3 save data gives you a bonus for GT4
>>521504114GT3 is a bit tighter game design wise, but can get repetitive due to the lack of contentGT4 on the other hand is so expansive it may feel overwhelmingBoth games are great, it's 2025, you can just pirate them

>>521496214yeah there should be a cap to repaint cost, 50k or smth
>>521451607The '08 GT500 GT-R is by far my favorite Super GT car. It still looks incredible for a 15 years on with just the right amount of busy aero, shame they got rid of the roof scoop ery quickly though.
I finished up the Italian cars today. Only French, Korean, and Japanese cars remain, 39 in total. Up next is twelve French cars for 7.3 million credits.
