- KY: “Actually, we are doing research right now to generate the sounds in a completely different way. I’m not sure if it is actually going to make it into GT6 in time yet, but we’ll have to see.”
- KY: “Like the sounds, that is something that we’re rebuilding for GT6. It won’t be the same asGT5.
- Finally, the interview helps shed some light on the large scale of downloadable content players can expect to be released for Gran Turismo 6 after its release, as Taku confirms that “at least one additional track per month will be downloadable.”

- “As I mentioned earlier, in addition to working on the physics engine, rendering engine, AI, and sound simulation, we are really working to a higher target for these things, and one of these days we will be able to show everyone the outcome of what we are able to achieve.”

- The city of Ronda, Spain has been re-confirmed as a Course Maker location in GT6.
- Although Kazunori would like for all of the tracks to have day/night changes, it’s not possible to bring that feature to all of them.
- Spa Francorchamps, Daytona, and the updated Apricot Hill course will all have day/night transitions.
- The Course Maker in GT6 is “fundamentally different” from GT5.
- Users will be able to “lay out their [custom] tracks freely” in an area of over 100 square kilometers. (Note: the exact quote from the translator is “100 kilometers by 100 kilometers”. However, this would be 10,000 square kilometers, an unreasonably large size and most likely a mistranslation.)

- that Gran Turismo 6 is set to receive a “fairly large” patch when it releases on December 6th, with further supporting updates scheduled to last 12 months.
- “It’s the same every time,” said Yamauchi. “Everything’s very tight. It’s an incredibly tight schedule. As to being able to include everything we want to on day one, we probably won’t be able to. I think for the 12 months following the release we’ll continue to update the software. Because in Gran Turismo 6 we’re preparing a lot of different things we haven’t even touched on yet.”

- “Yes, originally it was said there would be 100×100, then we said 50×50 kilometers.
“Going by the latest info I’m getting from our development staff, it might end up being closer to 20×20. That is still very large – the Nurburgring is about 5×5 kilometers in the game, so it is quite a lot of space.”- https://www.gtplanet.net/kazunori-yamauchi-tamir-moscovici-interview-jff-2013/

- “This feature, available at a later stage through an update, will allow you to create your own custom tracks that can be driven in the game. Additionally, in another update we will add the possibility to generate a track by capturing the GPS coordinate data of a mobile app while you are driving that course. This GPS-generated tracks will be available in the game as playable content.”
For the sake of what is Holy, get out, play your simcades, as always, and never come back.
However, I thought VGT was only meant to build completely different cars from one's imagination.
It's as simple as that, man.
