Gran Turismo 5

[KNAPPO]

Just been trying to race a mate from work online with GT5P.... WHAT A NIGHTMARE!!!!

I hope they have cleaned up the PSN friend matching system (or lack of) in the final release.

Damage fail!

[KNAPPO]

LOL, that looks funny as!
Reminds me of LFS a bit.

[AstrO]

Shouldn't that be on fire?

[c.j]

Now if it was a subaru it would repair itself.

Bit silly how the bonnet stays at 45 degrees...

The rain from the cockpit view looks the goods. I wasnt even expecting wet weather

Here’s a quick overview of what’s been discussed in the TGS 2010 GT5 breakout session:

* Laguna Seca has been completely rebuilt and will return for GT5. Trial Mountain has also been confirmed.
* “Gran Turismo Anywhere” will allow you to manage B-Spec races, right from your computer. You’ll be able to hold B-Spec races with your friends from anywhere in what are called “Remote Races”.
* GT5 will feature a series of special events such as the Karting Experience, the AMG driving school, The Stig Challenge, Jeff Gordon NASCAR School, Sebastien Loeb Rally Challenge, and Gran Turismo Rally.
* Point-to-point rally stages will be automatically and randomly generated – you’ll have to depend on your co-driver to give you the best instructions about the road ahead.
* Rally mode can be played either on or offline.
* Weather changes include temperature differences, air pressure changes, and humidity, affecting the surface conditions of the track dynamically.
* Weather conditions are randomized. Forecasts for your race will be available but may not be entirely accurate, just like the real world.
* Polyphony Digital has helped Red Bull Racing’s Adrian Newey design the X1 Concept – an “ultimate” racing car, free of any technical regulations.
* Polyphony Digital has worked to improve engine sounds.
* Yamauchi admits that, in certain situations – such as standing race starts in the rain with 15 other cars on the screen kicking up spray in front of you – the game may not be able to hold 60FPS. Otherwise, it will strive to hold 60FPS as often as possible.
* The Volkswagen Kubelwagen, which has a drive system like the first beetle, and the amphibious Volkswagen Schwimmwagen will be in the game.
* Many things didn’t make the cut in Gran Turismo 5, and work on Gran Turismo 6 has already begun.

Combi vans in the wet, shit yeah!

[ysu]

looks good dammit

[petey]

Wow, I recall mentioning in the RBR thread not too long ago that the only way to truly simulate a good rally is to dynamically create tracks. If I'm not mistaken it would appear they have done just that

[Bauer]

Any mention of day/night transitions?

and yeah, the rally stuff sounds good

[Dan]

Pretty sure you should be able to set the day/night to the length of the race

New video out too, the way the pit crew moves in this video is mental.

if it was done for PC it could have some fantastic gfx

[r8response]

if it was done for PC it could have some fantastic gfx

But would run like absolute shit

why would it? If it was a crap port, yes. If it was straight developed for pc it could easily blow everything away.
...unless you have an aging pc of course

LOL, another delay to it...................

You know what, once upon a time I would have cared. The failed expectations of LFS development has now forever prepared me for these such occasions so I no longer give a shit! lol.

I was getting worried that I wouldn't have enough time/funds for Fallout 3 Vegas and GT5 as they were being fairly closely released. Now that problem is solved!

[petey]

Thats ridiculous.
