Gran Turismo 5’s Next Update Coming Tuesday, February 7

Kazunori Yamauchi has just confirmed, via Twitter, the release date of Gran Turismo 5’s next update, presumably version 2.04.

It launches this Tuesday, February 7, 2012, after the game’s online service maintenance period, currently scheduled between 03:00 and 04:00 GMT. Details about the update’s contents remain scant, though Kazunori has already mentioned one minor bug relating to drift trial replays that will be corrected.

As always, stay tuned for more information as its released!

    These bug fixes all had a large relevance to me, so this was a sizable update in my opinion!

    Does anyone know if the “Improved the performance of online races to provide a better racing experience” includes being able to roll over your car online? The physics are/were different online and you weren’t able to roll the car, even on Wings of the Red Dragon (Custom track) and Trial Mountain’s lump by the start/finish line.

    They have at least fixed the weight on the Beetle so it is now 780 kg not 1260kg or whatever it was. Although it is still showing the incorrect weight in the Dealership description, so they seemingly forgot to change the Dealership description. And yes, the Speed Tests do seem to have changed. I have been running a Testing Regime and am about 20 cars in. This means I have to start again…… I am not going to complain though as perhaps it was wrong before and they have corrected it to better results. If the results are now more accurate I am happy with one change (just as long as they don’t keep “tweaking” the speed test results with future patches).

    By the way, if anyone is interested there are no new OCD or Seasonal Events it appears. I know some people were asking about that before the patch went up.

    looks to me like they screwed up the speed tests, I’ve run a few cars and i can’t even get close to the times i ran before the update. Why do they always screw something up.

    1. PIGBOY

      i am inclined to agree after a 5 minute FGT run.1/4 mile times = .3-4 slower.Before i was running 8.1-2’s.now i run 8.5-6’s.
      1 mile runs are 0.4 slower 20.4 before now 20.8

    2. AKA I95

      I agree with Eightlives. We the drag racers put a lot of time and hard work making the list of the most important GT5 drag racing Leader Board and when i say a lot i mean it. There were more than a thousand submissions for the great variation of cars that are common on the drag scene of GT5. All i ask its, Please PD just give us a drag strip, a real drag strip and please once you release it don’t change the tire grip ratios for gods sake.

  4. uneaq27

    yeah a few Ferraris wouldn’t be bad at all, a few RM Ferraris and instead of the beetle and Mini, why aren’t we getting the brand New BMW 1M??? Since this game is also meant to boost sales!! Race Mod Aston Martin, btcc, wtcc, Dtm, more rims, mid-field track back… race Mod N s x

    A new update has been released for Gran Turismo 5.
    The main contents of the update are as follows:

    – Improved the performance of online races to provide a better racing experience. However,
    please note that using voice chat with 12 or more players can reduce screen refresh intervals.

    – Reduced wobbling of the screen when using the Chase view (The Chase view is when the car is viewed from the
    rear during races and replays, selected by using the SELECT button).

    – Electric cars (opponent cars and your cars in B-Spec) will now pit-in automatically to recharge the battery.

    – Reduced the amount of steering pull when using force feedback steering wheel controllers in banks on courses such
    as the Special Stage Route X Oval.

    – When driving formula cars using the Logitech steering wheel controllers, the initial force feedback amount has been
    lessened and adjusted to make it easier to drive in a straight line.
    Applicable controllers: Driving Force™ GT, G25 Racing Wheel、G27 Racing Wheel, GT Force®Pro, GT Force®、Driving Force™,
    GT Force®RX and Driving Force Wireless
    Applicable cars: Red Bull X2011, Red Bull X2010, Ferrari F10, Ferrari F2007, Formula Gran Turismo

    [Correction of Known Issues]
    – Fixed an issue where speedometer, race position and best lap time info are sometimes not displayed on the 2nd player side in 2P Battle Mode.
    – Fixed an issue where exhaust sound is heard even after switching from a combustion engine car to an electric car within the same online race.
    – Fixed an issue where if the game is started without signing in online and then saved, the cars and courses included in the Racing Car Pack
    and Course Pack would become unusable.
    – Fixed an issue where electric cars would not recharge in the pit and become immobile.
    – Fixed an issue where when the oil of the Toyota Prius was changed in GT Auto, the motor ceased to function correctly.
    – Improved the force feedback of the Guillemot Thrustmaster T500 RS, where the 10 level force feedback adjustment (Especially when using
    the X2010 and X2011) was not working effectively.
    Also improved a condition where it was difficult to drive in the intended path.
    – Improved the force feedback for the Logitech Driving Force™ GT, G25 Racing Wheel, G27 Racing Wheel and GT Force®Pro, where the 10 level
    force feedback adjustment (Especially when using
    the X2010 and X2011) was not working effectively.

    [To Check Your Current Version]
    To check the version of your software, press the “Manual” button at the bottom of the main menu screen. The version number will be located
    on the upper left of the index page.

    If the number starts with “Ver. 2.04”, you are playing the latest version of the game.

    If not, please press the PS button and quit the game. The game will be updated automatically when you restart
    it with your PS3™ system connected to the internet.

  6. sirjim73

    I have installed the patch and the Acura is NOT showing in the Dealership. Even without the online it should be there if it was included in the patch? Will let you know more as I find anything…

    1. PIGBOY

      im will be delighted to tell you,but first you really should tell me what you want me to tell you???????
      the alphabet in reverse?
      6 times tables?

  7. marktyper

    Hopefully there are some EXCITING updates like the ability to put GT500 and GT300 Races cars in the same event? :D

    and hopefully next DLC there would be more interesting cars for racing and not for display.. You guys know what I mean.. like Ferrari 360 Modena! or even Porsche IF EVER GT will be licensed.

    1. PIGBOY

      @Hopefully there are some EXCITING updates like the ability to put GT500 and GT300 Races cars in the same event? :D
      thats something i want too..and all lmp’s not just selected year models

  8. outlawjon

    The ability to see your cars PP whilst using other search terms (year, weight etc)… also car thumbs when viewing your garage online. That would make me a very happy lad.

    1. ohnoitsmeagain

      lol 12 months on & still the same story, they fix 1 thing & break another!

      I just wish ppl would read GTP’s OLR, fed up of getting rammed or brake checked in open lobbys, some of them guys have problems!

  9. gman01

    Pleeeeeeeeease PD would really love to see the 599 GTO. Shouldnt be too hard, same interior as the 599 and practically same body just a few details. Also the One-77, more le mans type cars!!, GT/GT2/GT3 race cars and definitely more TRACKS!!!!!!

  10. calizaboy

    GT5 the greatest deception of all time. Where can call real driving simulation where you can not play online without worrying about issues already reported here by GT Planet. This is a total disregard with the lovers of GT5

  11. i have a flat

    If you gonna hit on the girl you can do it without playing the other dudes on here.and don’t say just kidding or just joking after asking for a date when you truly meant it…..lol

  12. acascianelli

    So when Kaz says release on 6/7, does that mean released on the night of 6/6 for north American eastern time zone?

  13. bonannogiovanni

    Am I the only one dreaming of an update that gives you the option to ingame-save and to create custom championships in arcade mode (where the AI is challenging)?

    Probably I am……

    1. Cjr1843

      Custom Championships would be very welcomed. Having somewhat of a selection on which cars to include in the championships? Even more so. Even earning XP and money for them? I may be asking for too much.

  14. partyperson

    I wish they would just make all the cars premium, that is all I’ve been asking for since I got the game. I could care less about the dlcs and stuff like that because I have better thighs to spend my money on than virtual cars.

    1. Apmaddock

      I’m not entirely sure that you meant to say that you have “better thighs to spend your money on,” though it could be entirely true…

  15. uneaq27

    I’ve been saying it; Dtm, wtcc, btcc, fia gt champ and even the Australian v8 supercars would be a good add-ons instead of those beetles n Nissan all the time. i want those chevrolet Cruz!!! so bad!!!! make a man’s wish come true. let us have real battles online. let us compete. No more concepts plz. Final products only.

    1. Big Ron

      Forget about it. PD is too much Japan to realise, that the western market is crying for completely different cars.

      PD is heavily influenced by japanese car manufactures. You realise this by looking at the VW-DLC cars, which are RHD

    2. Uppmas

      You biased boy… Just look at the premium car selection. Isn’t it pretty fair for all countries? Those standard cars are from GT4, the last game where Jap cars dominated, and that’s why you have a miata around every corner. And do you seriously think that they travel to German to just model a couple cars? Nope, they use the cars that are imported from German to Japan. Therefore the Import cars do have RHD. Forza 4s Jap cars are LHD for the exact same reason. Is Turn 10 now American influenced?

    3. Big Ron

      Say what you want, but it is a fact. And the import-car argument is nonsense, since they just would have to mirror the 3d-model to the left side to get it correct.

      Since GT5 sold 8 time more in western wolrd than in Japan they should not publish any vehicles other than western manufacturers. Instead the first DLC was 90% Japan.

    4. TokoTurismo

      Those were just RM cars Big Ron. Why are you getting so angry over GT4 cars. lol You’re funny. Overall this isn’t DLC, this is an update for GT5. Calm down…

    5. Uppmas

      PD is passionate with making their cars. They don’t just ”mirror” it, because that will result to a bad model. And don’t get me started about those Touring cars… they’re not completely new cars.

    6. Big Ron

      I modelled 3d-cars myself you you can mirror the dashboard and steering column to make it LHD or RHD easwith easiness. Not “bad model” at all.

    7. skippynixx

      @big Ron if the western manufacters built decent cars I’m sure PD would have no problem adding them. There are enough cars in the game that can’t take a corner as it is.

  16. hairystig

    you’re all dreaming if you think you’re going to get some new content for free, new update will just be minor bug fixes, new cars and tracks will be dlc, maybe just maybe we can hope to one day get a spec3.0 type update but that’s probably at least a year away yet.

  17. SZRT Ice

    Tracks, please focus on tracks… Technical tracks, original tracks, fantasy tracks, real world tracks, classic tracks, new tracks, point to point tracks, rally tracks, drag tracks, street tracks, highway tracks, tunnel tracks, bridge tracks, city tracks, country tracks, indoor tracks, bumpy tracks, jumpy tracks, lumpy tracks, race tracks, drift tracks, desert tracks, mountainous tracks, riverside tracks, wooded tracks, train yard tracks, boat yard tracks, airport tracks, hot-wheels tracks, gymkhana tracks, touge battle tracks, wide tracks, narrow tracks, surreal tracks, epic tracks, and just… more… TRACKS.

    Please?

    Thank you.

    1. TokoTurismo

      Hahaha, it’s like you wrote a song of “Dream Tracks”. XD How about a tropical track, like the same one from GT2 with the road course and rally course. :D

  18. wildarms007

    Would like to see both versions of Watkins Glen but that will probably be a DLC. Hopefully the update will be new cars for purchase inside the in car dealership

  19. PIGBOY

    Drifting replays fixed,this is bigger than ben hurr.
    What complete rubbish,alot of japanese must want it fixed or he wouldnt do it.Lets have a mass japanese learing convention! and learn to put our needs into japanese

  20. G35US

    We are definitely getting the NSX. They dont design these fun concept cars and never give it to us. (GT-86). Plus the NSX was in a super bowl commercial. No connection, but im sure a freebie we will be getting on Tuesday.

  21. 70hemi

    I have an idea! Fix the stupid Chat Filter so we can say Engine and Motor! Why were they even blocked in the first place! It’s a Racing Game! C’mon PD, Seriously?!

    1. gjeff12

      Yeah they block any words that are “offensive” in any language. That’s why random words are blocked. In LBP they banned grapes because it has rape in it.

    1. Zuel

      It may add thenext NSX though I thinking it will add the other fields in GT Auto that were photoed at the last visit at PD. We’ll just have to wait and see.

    2. protocollo

      is not only english… for exemple in french, stupid is “con” but in italin “con”is “whit”… so i have to write “c on”

  22. thekylerules

    The only update i really want is the ability to fast forward B-spec races, like you could on GT4. I’m pretty happy with everything else.

  23. TokoTurismo

    Why do I get the feeling someone is gonna write something bad about me, like that other guy that hates me…. >:(

    1. tika

      Now I have to say something stupid

      That`s because you A real fan boy, that thinks every fart Kaz and his team fart out into the real world is A little wonder…

    2. bentleydriver

      @HE1RO
      That explains why off you posts no make sense….

      If that were true why do I as A 43 year old man understand perfectly what she is talking about when it comes to cars. I believe this little girl knows more about cars then the most of you kids ever will.

    3. PIGBOY

      A lovely lady you must be too,we should go out on a date drive,now for a romantic location……:)
      only joking

  24. Crusha148

    Plus this years new DTM cars, all 3 brands look awesome, if PD does get us the 2012 DTM cars then they will be one up on forza

  25. Crusha148

    I want the Audi R18 LMP racecar, forza is getting it along with a Bentley GT, and how about the all new Toyota LMP racecar that will be racing this year in ALMS

  26. Blood*Specter

    Soem observations:

    Tire Ware: I think there has been some NINJA editing afoot. Maybe just me, but comfort soft tires seem to have more grip, and last longer than I remember.

    Bug: Think the maintence may be aimed at that. And it will hopefully fix whas as been gong on since the FIRST dlc.

    Thankfully GT Planet exists. Otherwise there would be no “controlled” feedback to improve/correct the game.
    You have to think “PD” and Kaz look at the constructive remarks. And the current game lets you know that they respond.

    Finally, the ability to put premeum wheels on standard cars is an indication that sooner rather than later, there will be a switch made to upgrade the standard cars. That may account for the difference in processing between standard and premeum cars on-line.

    I think PD wants them to be premeum more than most of us do. You have to think they are memory hogs, and prevent PD and Kaz from doing more things to the game. I think they are working hard to make the game better. As I am sure most of us know, PD will make changes at any time espcially during scheduled down time. Look for small things…details to change fo the better.

  27. caasimun_18

    Hey, I was thinking. What if PD decided to make all the other (GT) tracks into a DLC and supposedly they also put in an event DLC eg. (GT4 events), (GT3 events) and such….wouldn’t that be awesome?

  28. Sunrize

    First – Fix the online issues please!
    Second – Upgrade the Toyota Supra RZ to PREMIUM??? C´mon, this car it´s like the “most wanted” car for the fans since day 1!!!!!

  29. pointilism

    Coincidence that forza already announced new dlc for feb 7?????
    Gt5 users must thank turn 10 for forza 4 otherwise we would have never received any substantially updates or especially dlc!

    1. Tvensky

      I think PD dont even look at forza, It takes one minute of driving in Forza to understand that, its no threat to GT franchise.
      Forza is fun to play game anyways, with different set of priorities.

      I hope they fix online, I m tired of restarting my GT5, I get this freeze everytime I relod or re-enter online lobby, I have only one time chance to create or join room, second time I refresh I freeze and have to quit… :(

      I have no problem with any other online game, I have very good internet, and all settings are set very well… So this issue is pure GT5 fault.

    2. SyracuseSpartan

      Actually, history argues PD does follow Turn 10 and vice versa. The cars that Turn 10 are adding for DLC are some of the most popular GT5 cars. Also when you look at the initial major update for GT5 coming around the same time Forza 4 launched, that is not a coincidence.

    3. Tvensky

      ok, I will agree if GT5 update will bring something new and fresh, if it is just a small bug fix, then its coincidence.

  30. DA6righthand

    Why the f is everyone talking about dlc stuff? I want a fix for the online issues EVERYONE is having. Don’t get me wrong, dlc is great. To me though, releasing dlc without fixing online issues is like buying new wheels for your car that has a blown motor.

    Please PD, fix the online problems. I love everything you guys have done thus far because I play the game nearly every day. The longer this online bug persists though, the less enjoyable it gets. I know I’m not the only one feeling this way. I’ll always be a fan of GT and I’m hoping things will get better.

    1. TokoTurismo

      I had the same problem too. When I load up the standard car section, it takes nearly forever. Then my game will freeze when I’m leaving. Plz PD. You must do whatever it takes to fix this, we’re with you to bring everything we find in GT5 that causes trouble. Show the other companies that release DLC 24/7 what you’re made of. :) GT fan forever no matter what. ;)

    1. granddriver

      There are some online issues but tire wear isn’t one. Get use to it.

      The biggest issue is running more than 12 people right now. This is a MUST fix.

    2. DA6righthand

      Ditto granddriver. The tire wear “issue” requires drivers to adapt. They are quite resistant. I’m learning to adapt…or at least trying to.

      I don’t like limiting online races to 12 drivers. It isn’t as much fun. Can’t wait til we can run a full 16 again.

  31. AngelPlayStar

    After 8 feb our PSN accounts will be “Sony Entertainment Network Accounts” (SEN Accounts) with a PS3 system update … Bye bye Playstation Network… I think this is a minor update for the compatibility.

  32. SLICK T

    Oh and PLEASE give us a option to turn off camera shake and turn off the stupid overpowered WIND EFFECT. I loved hearing the sound of my cars before the WIND patch and now at high speeds in my roof cam view its mute the car sounds BAD. Plus now I have to turn the volume WAY DOWN cause you guys like increased the sound too much lol. I could race on level 80 out of 100 on my hd tv before that patch and now I have to turn it down to 30 if I don’t want my speakers blown from that stupid wind noise. I always race cockpit view on every other game but I can’t on GT5 cause its camera shake is TOO much and makes me sick to my stomach. Please give us a option to turn that OFF if we want. PLEASE! That also goes for the wind noise to.

  33. SLICK T

    I just joined this site to add that all I wish they would fix is the black screen and lockup online, and when I buy a used car from the used dealership or the Main new car dealership it sends you back to the menu. I wish they would patch this cause it gets on my nerves bad. When we buy a car from either dealership it shouldn’t make us jump through hoops trying to re- find the dealership spot you were at every time we buy a dang car. Oh and please make some form of youtube uploader for our SAVED REPLAYS. If you can’t make a uploader for the game at least make a way to save our replays to the ps3 harddrive so we can copy them to a usb and edit the replays on our computers then. SOMETHING. The replays are useless the way it is now. How do we show them off without holding a camera up to the screen? I mean COME ON ALREADY!

  34. alexlam24

    Oh please fix the chase cam. I used to drift with it, but now I have resorted to hood view. And make the XFR a premium.
    Simcerely GT5 Group admin

    1. turbolefty78

      You are NOT a member of GT5 Group Admin(whatever that’s supposed to be), and you should not be signing your post as such to make them sound more “Official”. If I knew how to report posts in this section I would.

    2. turbolefty78

      Oh really, even better, a facebook page. As if the powers that be at PD could give a rip about your “group” on facebook. And for what it’s worth, you’re not a member of any such thing as that GT5 group admin HERE ON GT PLANET! Please stop placing yourself up on that pedistal in order to make yourself look so official HERE ON GT PLANET. Maybe it takes an adult to figure out that’s what I meant to begin with.

    1. Austin864

      THIS. 100% THIS.

      You guys keep asking for more stuff when you haven’t even DONE everything in GT5.

      I feel like GT5 is almost like high school all over again. There are people who only race NASCAR and dare not touch the other cars or tracks, people who only drag, people who only do Honda, JDM, Drift… They’re all just like cliques in high school!

      Try other things, dammit! xD

  35. gtracer1995

    Now just because version 2.04 is being released February 7, that does not mean a new DLC is going to be released, because if they were going to be released, the would’ve announced it on this article.

    1. Benjamino72

      Haha, I hope they fix the multiplayer glitch where the bottom screen has no speedometer :/ it’s annoying.

  36. grazbro

    1 minor bug with a drift trial? Please, fix the online bugs plaguing the game play and pace lap times, as well as menu lock ups.

    1. DA6righthand

      Ditto. These online gaming issues are very aggravating. I’m coping with everything for now but the least PD could do is acknowledge that there is in fact, a major problem regarding online gameplay and that they will/are trying to fix it.

    1. tpark103

      I don’t want to get your or my hopes up. I know what ever happens some of us will be happy and some will be disappointed come Tuesday. :D

  37. RGLEYBA

    HOW ABOUT FIXING THE GLITCH WHERE THE GAME FREEZES WHILE RACING ONLINE? And while u are at it add some new tracks to the online menu, would make A ALOT OF PEOPLE HAPPY!!!!!!

  38. Mr2Fast4U

    I hope we get a premium Bugatti Veyron and Aston Martin DBS sometime soon and a premium E36 M3 would be nice too.

  39. nsnsmj

    Regardless of whether or not you’re satisfied with the game, PD have supported this game more than almost every other dev out there have supported their games. Not just DLC, but numerous patches as well. The good thing is that we’ll be seeing everything they’re doing now in GT6 and beyond.

    I think the problem with GT5 not having as much content as previous entries in the series was the move to HD and building everything from scratch.

    1. Watt2159

      I agree completely, why are so many people complaining about the updates? If they like, PD could have just released one patch that fixes all of the bugs and then be over with it, but that doesn’t seem to be the case anymore, as the more recent updates, there are less bug fixes, and in return there are more features being added, which is much more than what we can say for other companies, who release their games, then don’t even attempt to fix the bugs.

    2. Soichiro

      +1 nsnsmj, Toko, Watt,
      Fully agree, GT5 is just The Game that provides special sensations & feelings for people who really like cars! There are too many little kids that simply don’t understand GT World :)

      Have fun!

    1. JaySin85

      More like a release title for ps4. Which should be within the next two years. Pointless to release it on ps3 and would be a bad move to release it much after release if it isnt a release title.

    2. gordogg24p

      I wouldn’t necessarily say releasing on the PS3 with the PS4 on the horizon is a bad move. Sony Santa Monica released God of War II on the PS2 after considering making it a PS3 launch title. God of War still managed to be one of the biggest franchises Sony has right now.

    3. JaySin85

      I just mean there is no use, being that gt5 is already limited by the ps3. So why bother with gt6 on the same console, especially when dlc and updates are plenty to keep gt5 fresh. At least gt6 will actually be a step up then, instead of the same thing with a different layout and a few new features. GOWs gameplay wasnt limited by the ps2, just its graphics.

    4. HKS racer

      GT5 doesn’t need many graphic improvements, 95% of issues are related to the lack of features. GT6 on Ps3 is more than welcome.
      Another 2 – 3 years for a Ps4? Wake up guys, next year Assetto Corsa will be ready with a stunning jaw dropping DX11 graphic engine better than GT, pCars, Forza4, iRacing and everything else on the market. Eventually PD will try to beat the new generation and they will delay GT6 forever. In a couple of years graphic will reach the final step, it will look like virtual reality. So, at the same level of details the winner will be the one with better physics and features. That’s what PD should worry about. Graphic rush is almost over.

  40. JaySin85

    I hope the G27 shifter bug gets fixed in this one… I doubt it though.

    Can’t wait to see what does get fixed…

  41. AnTiheLT

    Is PD even aware of the online bugs problems ? Anyone knows, or can confirm that they are working on it ?

    Hope this new update will get rid of it once and for all….!

  42. Projectoutlaw

    They need to fix the toyota 86 chase camera. Since they released the car the chase cam is so close to the back bumper you can’t see the bottom of the car.

    1. alexlam24

      and all the other cars suffer from the same problem. The only way i have been able to tone the problem down is by making the springs stiffer

    1. HoSway01

      @Geraghini: I don’t know about the Speed 12, but I thought that Bugatti was AGAINST changing the rims on their cars, because apparently it would disturb the perfectness of the car. That’s in real life! Wonder if it applies to the game too!

  43. Dragonwhisky

    Change the way saving races works for re-entry so that we can resume the saved race when the event is selected the next time after suspending said race, instead of when the game is launched.

    Please expand the A-spec and B-spec events. Either add more races to the current sections and/or create an entire new section. New section suggestions – Rally, Drag Races, X-Country.

    1. roamer2629

      “Change the way saving races works for re-entry so that we can resume the saved race when the event is selected the next time after suspending said race, instead of when the game is launched.”
      Oh yes indeed!!

    2. FdkVeilside

      and also they should do a fix for login bonuses after a suspended race, say u were doing the 24hr race and you do it over a span of a week and finish it on the 7th day after multiple suspends every day, when you go back into the GT Life menu your earning bonuses drop back down to 100% i wish they could fix itt so that you log on whenever you play the GT5 disk

    Fix Online search filter so I can filter out the rooms that has less than 4/5 stars in race quality and less than 4/5 in bandwidth.

  45. jomama2010

    Fix the online bugs and add a Ferrari 430 TC, Mustang TC, Lambo Murc TC, Vector Aeromotive Vehicles, Lambo Diablo

    And I’ll be a very happy man. XD

    1. HeXoSKEL3t0n

      Dont forget the Ferrari 458 TC or BMW M3 TC! PD needs to give us a wider range of cars to race modify.

      or it’d be nice if they could also put the first race car pack DLC as GT auto race modification options, instead of putting them under the dealerships ^^

  46. ElieTheStig

    As long as we are buying all the DLCs… and some twice to get an other car (FT86 II Concept 11′) PD will continue to give us great updates and GT5 will live longer… But I can’t wait for the new GT game. I hope the pace notes in rally and the rally tracks will be like in dirt… real rally world … not just some random /tracks/pace notes/ and too large tracks : (

  47. GTP_Yamicarlos

    I need Porsche in the game! I need Koenigsegg in the game! I need premium Bugatti Veyron and SuperSport! I need more Aston Martin! I need more Maserati! More Ferrari! More LMP cars! Indycars!

    1. Racecarman

      Yes where is porsche, and how hard can it be to put an Indy car in the game,it’s one car with different skins, the Senna F1 cars from GT3 please

    2. Quakebass

      Porsche is being hogged by the evil dictator: EA. When their exclusive license runs out, PD and Turn 10 (Forza developers) will be all over it. I won’t mind if Turn 10 gets a hold of it, because I trust them. They released a statement about the exclusive license, saying that is was unfair to withhold cars from a game. It would make other devs. go after other exclusive licenses, and would ruin the fun of games by not allowing certain content in your personal favorite games. Its much like a supposed licensing deal with the devs. of an FPS game – one buys exclusive licenses to a gun company to use that one gun, this ruins other FPS games.

  48. dixonbaps

    Standing start for time trials would suit me just fine. Oh, and an a/b spec overall. Wishful thinking I know, but would greatly enhance the game for me.

  49. ROFFATI

    There is only on thing they should really fix.
    The new premium LMP Jaaag is not in the list, when i set the lobbyregulations to LMP cars.
    That sucks.
    Oh, and maby all the other bugs.

    Anyway, PD you doing a great job whith GT5. One day it will be perfect. And than just call it
    GT6 ;).

  50. Dominic Toretto

    Who knows what things they will be adding cause to me in every update they DO add new tracks, cars & other stuff cause when you buy the DLC the cars & tracks are only about 100kb each.

  51. PinappleJuice

    I would like to see the ability to Race Mod more premium cars, would love to see an Aston Martin DB9 RM (DBR9), or lambo LP670 RM (RS.V).

  52. tika

    I would like to see two things fixed and those things are in practice drive our free drive however you wane call it. Fix the bug that is connected to it with showing the lap times of all the accounts instead of just my account lap times. Now it’s showing the times of all users of the ps3 instead of just my lap times. And if I delete those I will al so delete the lap times of my little brother. Please fix the lap time board so it doesn’t show the lap times of the another accounts in the game.
    And I hope it fix the problem of not being able to sell our delete DLC cars from the garage

  53. aronh17

    No, no, no… We need the Ferrari FXX. At least that’s what I want, but if it doesn’t come to the game I don’t mind at all.

  54. MegaDr1ft

    What GT5 needs now is to add a visual decal/vinyl creator so you can customise your car, like the ones in Forza or Need for Speed. That would be AWSOME!

    1. Rynogtr23

      I’m glad kazunori is a purest and we will never see any silly personalized decals spoiling & distracting from the beauty of the cars, just like in forza. race car livery is one thing but im happy with the cars just as they are.

    2. MadmuppGT

      Yeah, while decals work well in those games, I dont think a Hello Kitty Zonda is something car lovers would do, or like seen done to such cars. Kids who watch Saturday morning cartoons and fast and the furious do for sure, because the tackier the better. Its like when I owned Forza and thought I could create any design, But I didnt, I went for the occasional racing stripe, or carbon fiber body panels. But I always thought why would I want my car looking like an anime character has just thrown up all over it. I would much sooner have a more indepth body/race mod feature… I like to keep the cars clean looking and just as people would have them in real life.

      I guess race mod/track day decals would be good, put numbers on the cars, the odd sponsor sticker etc.

    3. MuoNiuLa

      @TokoTurismo: If you don’t want to use a livery editor on your cars, that’s fine. Just don’t use it. But some of us are not happy with GT’s weak level of customization, so a way to make racing liveries on our cars would be more than welcome.

    4. TokoTurismo

      @MuoNiuLa Why am I the only getting being targeted. :( Anyway, I understand you MuoNiuLa. But if theres going to be one, ateast have it possible to design your license plate. :)

  55. psball

    i wish that they would put the square garage button on the bottom of GT-Life & in the tuning shop & maintenance shop!

  56. Dazmeister22

    People, this is an UPDATE NOT DLC there will not be any new cars. The best we can hope for is that it’s a fix for that damn online bug that affects any online room with more than 12 players in it.

  57. GT5Exige

    Arcade Time Trial/ Drift Leader boards for each track/car from the Arcade selectable Premium Car List.

    PLEASE!!!!

  58. Michel_van_Eune

    PSVita Remoteplay support?!? Hope this will be added soon! Made a topic in GT5 feedback section. Voto for it so we all can play where ever and when ever we want! Search feedback section for: PSVita Remoteplay support.

    Thnks!

  59. viperfreak

    Kind of funny.. It’s a small update, from 2.03 to 2.04, and the first thing everyone says is: I want this, nd that, and this car, PD you should do what I say bla bla bla..

    Dude, it’s an update, PD isn’t obligated to give you anything, so wait for the next DLC update and shut up.
    There’s really not going to be something big in this update..

    1. Racecarman

      It sounds great,hey I’m getting old here 49 we must have these things befor I die, at least I was able to see 66 vacuum cleaner car in real life back in the early 70’s at Riverside Raceway, oh there is another great trace we could use Riverside,they once ran F1there and I-roc

    1. Mankala

      RUF CTR 3, Ferrari P4/5 (with ability to race mod into competzione spec), Lamborghini Reventon, Reliant Robin. All I ask. LISTEN POLYPHONY DIGITAL. LISTEN!!!!

  60. truchito86

    I hope that at some point they give us more options when it comes to wheels… and possibly even fitment options… but a wider selection of wheels would be so cool.

  61. BkS

    Hopefully there’s a fix for better cinematic replay cameras, like they use in the trailers, but knowing PD we most definitely will not.. I’m not holding my breath, but it would be nice being a video editor and all. Hopefully we’ll get a BMW E30. I don’t care which model I just need an E30! Oh and some more British tracks like Silverstone or Knockhill!

    1. BkS

      I nearly forgot. I hope they fix the ENGINE SOUNDS! and give us an audio options panel so I can turn down the damn tyres track. It’s set to high!

    1. HoSway01

      OMG YES!!! Why is it that I have to see the camera twitch (very subtly) when I’m taking a fast corner?! It’s like it’s trying to let the car pivot a little but does it’s best to stick to the cars rear.

  62. Philipp STi

    I want: More premium cars, more BMW ///M models, Standard cars change to Premium cars, better car sounds and Tuning, A body Tuning shop and more more more tracks

  63. TokoTurismo

    I’m so happy to hear about this news, I love their updates. You’re doing super awesome Kazunori and PD. :) And thank you so much for the lovely birthday persent, I love it. ;)

  64. Racecarman

    What we really need is a low speed fix,this is a problem with all racing sims, there is no way a car better then my 2006 civic si with 310,000 mile on it would spin out at 50mph on any given track, the high speed grip is great on most cars but not at low speeds.

    1. Wardez

      hah, well the biggest updates always come when we least expect them. So with every one’s passive pessimism, I’m expecting a lot xD

  65. Racecarman

    Any new tracks , Long Beach or maybe some F1cars from GT3 ,euro Civic, tracks,tracks,tracks,throw us a bone here were dying
