Kaz, you just outted yourself. I knew you went to and interacted with different communities, but will the higher ups at Sony appreciate your advice to a competitor?
:Edit. Most people probably donāt realize that Iām joking.
Back on topic. I hope the game gets a signifigant overhaul and claws its way out of the grave it seems to be in. But I do wonder if it would be too late. All I know, if they add a new track, it better be ānewā. Besides tracks, where are drifting and drag racing modes? We havenāt heard anything about their progress since C. Esaki asid theyāll be coming at a later dateā¦ When will it happen?
You want to know what blows me away the most about this installmentā¦ that Turn10 learned nothing about previous installments and what was implemented after the community begged for it, like the choice to make the single player campaign races longer to make some sort of connection with the car and to actually have a challenge, but No it wasnāt rolled over to this gaas title and that surprises me considering they want players to spend more time in the game for their targets.
Then MP, No player control over pretty much anything and then being placed at the will of what T10 decide, on top of that the ablity to add A.I into the lobby if itās just a couple of friends wanting to battle it out.
Then letās look at the vehicles and the paintshop and some others. Vehicles are ridiculously priced, where is the fun in that! Before I had to work for my credits, now itās just pointless, and I bought the standard ed.
The Paintshop is Absolutely PATHETIC!. We are six months in and itās hardly changed. So many disjointed aspects and the colours are just offā¦ way off, itās not my monitor, itās the game.
So you decided to lose the Auction House, Please explain? Cause that was a game into itself. Lemme guessā¦ you dropped it cause you completely screwed the prices of EVERY vehicle in the game. Did you not think Turn10 that some donāt actually race, they tune, paint and sell their rides. No, no you didnāt think of that for one second did ya T10 smh
The one and only reason that this 8th installment is being played is cause whichever department works on the physics got it right, right enough to make the game not completely tank like Project Cars 3
At the end of the day (whenever that was) you (T10) took advice from someone that had little idea about racing games and sold you this fantastic idea about how racing games could be like an RPG. I get it, but donāt you actually read posts here? Or do we have to start a general chat over in the suggestions hub to have a voice.
Some of the things that the game (that female) says, like in the last Reward Showcase with the Porsche GT4RS, You canāt win the race on the first lap soā¦
Well thereās only one lap lady!, give us maybe 2 and we will take you up on your suggestions!
I cringe everytime I see a blue dot upon entering the game these days cause itās either something so blatantly obvious or itās next to useless
Was trying my best to avoid what you have pointed out, I did everything I could but it was not enoughā¦ and now we have this, the situation where gaming developers feel that they have some sort of right to reinvent the game by losing the numerals and starting againā¦ like itās some sort of be all and end all, This is the all new Forza Motorsport!!!
Accelerating makes you faster, better tyres give you more grip, the rain is wet.
Or the sky is blue if itās sunny. Are a few i just made up. I wonder what kind of person creates these messages. Itās like they have educators from kindergardens giving them ideas.
I think the Mario Kart series, the Need for Speed series, & the Gran Turismo series (in that order) are the highest selling racing games by a large margin.
ā¦Itās interesting that 2 of the top 3 are platform-specific.
Back in PS1, 2 and 3 era Gran Turismo was very very popular and under the best selling games, but that is not the case anymore. Now it is a niche product.
Itās great that you think Sony still produces PS1, 2 and 3 games to be sold until this day, but they donāt, GT1 was produced for less than 10 years as an example.
GTA 5 has been for sale for over 10 years also, so what youāre saying is every game which sells less than the top 2 most sold of all time, are niche
The only problem with that is, its a one way communication/stream of information. I can only access what they give me. I canāt look at past streams and events. The news letter is definitely not a replacement for a Youtube channel.
Most serious sim racers donāt play Forza, they check out new releases of Motorsport, put it down after a while essentially saying: āItās not there yet,ā than continue playing more competent/serious sim racing titles. Motorsports has YET to tap that market in a significant way.
