I love photomode. Finding the perfect angle to snap of a car is great. But, It seems some great ones are in the disc, but not useable. A cliche, but justified, WTF.

Top Gear Hangar- A large open hangar with interesting lighting. Showcased in the "Apex" book, "Top Gear" Special Events introduction (With a Top Gear livery) and in a main menu video showcasing the game's premium SEMA award winners.

Wind Tunnel- A black room with a fan that puts white aerodynamic wind lines over a car's body. Showcased in the "Apex" book, and many, many car trailers (X1, SLS AMG, FT-86 G-Sports to name a few).

Rock Arch- A beautiful pass that has the car positioned under rock archway. Showcased in a main menu video showcasing the user's currently driven car(standard or premium).

Abandoned Ruins- Ruins set in an overgrown flatland on a perfect day, filled with wildflowers and butterflies. Showcased in a main menu video showcasing the user's currently driven car(standard or premium).

There are lots of others that were made once and never made the disc, for example the High Speed Ring Bridge onlook location from the California Trailer (about 1:45) and the Industrial Pier location from the FT-86 Trailer (see post below for both videos)

Come on PD, why put these *COMPLETED* photomode locations into the game, only so we cant use them?

EDIT- Heres another photomode location gone AWOL

Fixed the Youtube links for you.



I was wondering a similar thing. Would be nice to have those locations. Maybe they unlock at a later stage (via updates).

Thanks @ the Youtube links.

If they do do DLC, it BETTER be free...
 
Nothin bugs me more then seeing my standards under that awesome rock bridge and knowing that I can't get the picture. It has seriously discouraged me from photomode because IMHO that would be the best muscle car location in the game

Damn, just saw my Camaro 69 rm under there. God you are right.
 
It depends on where, but I would pay for some of them: Top Gear Hangar, Red Bull Wind Tunnel, any revamped ones from GT4 like Boston or Times Square or the Brooklyn Bridge overlook (or anyplace else on the North American continent for that matter.) It would be amazing if they would make a location like the LA Pier or the Vegas Strip with a lot of moving neon lights and reflections... Oh well...

I also seem to recall a shot from of the Stelvio Pass used in an early video which is absent too. Though it might have been a cleverly lit version of a track in game.

Last spring break I went on a Boston/NYC trip. After seeing the beauty there, i would pay too. Another GREAT photomode location would be Milwaukee's architectural lakefront. With the Art Museum and Discovery world, plus the lakefront, god it would be beautiful. And wow, the interior is the best potential photomode location ive ever seen

There's also this street location, which looks similar to Bern.

EDIT: Some locations in my small country could be great for photomode (although I'm probably the only one thinking this:D)

I would pay for a good package.
I just wonder if they can actually add locations (if not unlock the "hidden ones")

surprisingly PD haven't made available buy-items on the PS3 store as many other games
