Minor Gran Turismo 5 Update 1.12 Now Available
In a surprise move, Polyphony Digital has released a new GT5 update less than one week after 1.11 brought a batch of bug fixes and a Jeff Gordon driving suit.
Update v1.12 continues with the bug-fixing theme, though the only documented change is a correction to a glitch with the Limited Slip Differential controller for FF cars. As such, this update is very light, weighing in at only 13MB. Thanks to all of you who sent this in so quickly!

friend, create a dirt track, can get them to be oval if you reduce difficulty for sectors to 0 and go for your life. what they haven’t provided, they’ve provided an alternative for. have a crack and see if it works

I love how most people speculating about DLC haven’t even considered the FIA GT or DTM championships. Kaz said the FIA GT was originally planned for GT5 but had to be taken out. Wouldn’t it make sense to see some GT1 and GT3 car packs and FIA GT race locations(remember that they had studied Spa….)? I would trust PD to release their DLC as one big bundle though, you know, a few cars and a few tracks?
-
September 3rd, 2011 at 9:22 pm - #TJC_69
Yes that would be just awesome ….. =D
Do you have a link that tells you that GT5 is getting cars and tracks btw ? -
September 3rd, 2011 at 11:01 pm - #HairyandScary
Unfortunately no, anything surrouding DLC has always been guesswork, but this seems more likely than anything else in my opinion.
-
September 5th, 2011 at 7:35 am - #daics69
i hope so. unfortunately i remember reading somewhere that EA Sports – NFS Shift 2 has the rights to GT1-3, for how long i’m not certain. hopefully only 2011. that’s why we don’t have current FIA gt1-3, dtm. peace

Playboy mx5 cup is an actual racing series, and I never said for gt5 to go that deep into NASCAR, plus road atlanta has no meaning, it has only been around since the 90s. Have Thompson international speedway in Connecticut, the track that Carroll Shelby, Phil hill, jaun Manuel fangio, John fitch, and Mario Andretti plus many other racing greats said that that was the number one track one their lists. Thompson was the first oval/road course built in America. It was built in the early 1930′s.

This is in iracing already. I had a quick google and the layout looks simple and uninspiring. It reminded me of High Speed Ring actually , a few straight bits , some fast banked turns and a couple of tighter corners. I don’t see anything that would make me want to drive there.
Norschleife is king to many past & present drivers. :D

Wow you managed to go further down hill. Road Atlanta is big because the Petit Le Mans has already become a huge event. It’s one of the biggest endurance events. It is a solid footstep to Le Mams, because the winner is given an invite. The biggest races in ILMC are Spa, Sebring, Petit Le Mans (at Road Atlanta), and Le Mans. The game is already based with Le Mans cars at the top of it, so big Le Mans and international tracks are most likely. And if you want to get obscure like you seem to, it is also a place all the big legaues in north America test at, NASCAR Indycar Grand-Am, those guys. Road Atlanta has already became an internationally acclaimed track. So Road Atlanta has a big meaning in the racing scene. Now you are digging deeper to the obscure saying Thompson Raceway??? Is that even around anymore??? It certainly isn’t doing anything big or hosting anything worth noting. Your super obscure East Coast stuff won’t be part of the international scene GT5 operates on. And you did want to dig into NASCAR, you want dirt ovals and more NASCAR tracks. I would be scared if you were in charge of putting things on GT5.

Additionally , in my opinion I would class things like Remote Races and Racesuits as ” Features & Content ” …..
Maybe the people begging for it should think about that for a little while , as tears will spill on keyboards if the DLC pleaders don’t get their own way.

The first thing that comes to mind is a livery maker, as it is something Forza has had since before GT5 and would thus make since with the timing. A lot of people have asked for that for a while to. I do think we could see a few good new cars. One I think is very likely actually, is the current Audi and Peugeot Le Mans cars. The Peugeot because Playstation and Gran Turismo 5 are big sponsors, so I can see that maybe. However the one I see the most is the Audi R18 TDI. I am not saying this because this is my favorite car or anything, but I won’t lie, it is my favorite Le Mans car now and I’m not even a fan of one big manufacturer but the engineering and technology of it is simply brilliant. I see this car resonable because PD has a good relationship with Audi, with the nice R8 race car as one of the games big prizes and that GT5 is creating that simulator with the R8 race car. Audi has also marketed the car hugely, I’m sure we have all been seeing the ads Audi has for their ultra light weight technology with the R18, and putting that car in the game would be some pretty big advertising. So there for you could easily see some exciting fast cars, it is a possiblity. I also think those 25 tracks or however many from past installments that they posted those logos to on their website or whatever, could be seen in the content. Those in-race saves they are working on could be added. Spa could also be added as it is the most wanted track voted on and I don’t remember what it was, but didn’t they have some simulator deal with the track during the 1000km of Spa? Those are possibilities I see.

Great train of thought there Amac , very logical too.
A livery maker , Spa plus more LMS cars would all be welcome additions to the world of GT.
Waiting for any news of PD’s plans for extra content feels like waiting for GT5′s release date all those months ago.
I think we won’t be disappointed.
:D

Right then , here’s my opinion on the DLC situation…Here’s what we know in a nutshell , bear in mind the actual term “DLC” or “Tracks and Cars” have to my knowledge NEVER been written , said or broadcast by PD or Kaz. What Kaz did say was “Features & Content”. Now that might mean what every GT5 fan wants it to mean , but it might NOT. Okay so next point…. “Features & Content” are due to arrive either this month or next. Has anyone looked at that a little closer and seen that Forza 4 ( GT5′s only competition on the console market ) , is releasing between 11-20th October ? So I find Kaz’s twitter very interesting regarding the features/content release , especially from a business point of view as in business the best way to compete with a rival is to get the upper hand over them , which in turn leads to more consumers & profit. Best way to sell more copies of GT5 ? Give it more content.. For all the people begging PD for “DLC” , I challenge you to provide ANY link where Kaz has said that specific term.

FYI: The C in DLC stands for “content”. The only way to get content that isnt already on the disc is to download it. That is what the D and L stand for.
Just sayin’.
-
September 4th, 2011 at 1:59 pm - #TJC_69
I know that already Brandon. An interesting point to remember is that Remote Race and Racesuits were NOT dlc , they were an update.
Dlc for games is downloaded via Playstation Store , correct ?
At the minute everyone saying ” Omg DLC cars and tracks are coming !! ” , is an unfounded statement , PD are very secretive and this is just GT5 gamer speculation.
Do you see my point? -
September 4th, 2011 at 8:39 pm - #Amac500
Oh I totally agree with you bro. Doing this when Forza is coming out to me would possible be adding “content and features” like Forza has, to eliminate the differences in the competion. I see them trying to add the wow factor that Forza has with all it’s bells and whistles. Plus idk why people want in-game DLC stuff when they could just have it put right in in an update without needing to go download stuff in-game.

Just because Lime Rock is your home track doesn’t mean it should be in the game. I’m from the East Coast to, so I know whats up in our racing scene, and that isn’t what’s up. You want some obscure things and you want ALOT of them. Things that are more likely are fast race cars, Aka Le Mans GT cars and prototypes, and big tracks like Spa and other iconic ILMC and F1 tracks, and MAYBE Bathrust. Also could expect some curent cars to be premium and and tracks they already have to have time and weather changes.

I like gt5 awell as the next guy but to say its the real driving sim is a joke this game is too easy and becomes very boring very quickly yes it is very good value for your money and the best visuals of any racer but i found pgr 4 the most fun and addictive game and gt could do well to copy some of there ideas the weather being one bikes against cars whats not to love bring on pgr5

What gt5 really needs is oval dirt tracks, more NASCAR tracks, less Japanese crap, more American, there’s not even a boss 302 in the whole freakin game! And v8 super cars and the btcc, and last but not least, lime rock park, the road racing center of the east. That is the only track that has american le mans series, grand am rolex and continental, playboy mx5 cup, the NASCAR whelen modified tour, classic historic races, 30+ different car clubs, ferrari challenge, NASCAR k&n east series, and many car shows.

September 3rd, 2011 at 7:11 pm - #Amac500
It’s not a NASCAR game bro, it is a racing in general game, international racing. They aren’t going that deep into NASCAR to get K&N east series and I don’t see them adding many more NASCAR tracks. Infinion will come when they add those 25 tracks or whatever, and the Motegi oval. But NASCAR is a very small part of the game, big road race courses you will see. I like Lime Rock, but it isn’t iconic. For an American track try Sebring, Road Atlanta, or Long Beach. Hell even Bell Isle, that held F1 races before. And historic class races / club races are ran on every road course. Rolex and Contentinetal are the same thing, they go in the same places so don’t treat the schedule separate. I’m also a racing nut, into it all and I have NEVER heard of Playboy MX5 Cup, so let’s not even count that. I can see a few V8 touring cars, yes, but btcc cars are a stretch when their aren’t any GT race cars anyhow. A couple standard GT cars but not premium. But Lime Rock park is hardly the racing center of the east. Not when you have Indianapolis, Daytona, Sebring, Road Atlanta, historic courses like Waltkins Glen and Bell Isle, and NASCAR based in Charlotte (which also ran ALMS in ’00) and all those Indy boys and many Grand-Am and ALMS teams are in Indy. Speaking of Indycar, I can see them before btcc as well.

Ya know what I think would be a cool change, Class Racing. In endurance races like Le Mans, split it into GT and LMP class, which would include group C of course. Or just call it Class 1 and 2 or whatever, but I would love to race the prototypes around GT cars and such, would be fun.

September 3rd, 2011 at 3:56 pm - #EliteDreamer
Yes. Just so much YES. That would be lovely to have.

September 4th, 2011 at 7:24 am - #daics69
yeah i’ve thought about that a few times over the months. would be too good to be true but highly agree with you
-
September 4th, 2011 at 8:46 pm - #Amac500
Or maybe just add class races in addition to endurance, so there can be the endurances races like Indy and the roadster challenge, and then some class races. But just class in some capacity I would enjoy.

Probably the 2010 Hennessey HPE700 LS9 Camaro. They should also give us the Callaway SC572 Camaro.

As an amuater racing driver, I’ve had the privilege to race a wide variety of cars on a wide variety of tracks (ovals, road courses, dirt, asphalt, and concrete) and very little else has compared to the excitement and challenge of racing a sprint car around a dirt oval. Obviously this is just my opinion but what could be more fun then driving a 635 Kg monster with 800 bhp?!? Sprint Car racing can be found all over the world.(except maybe in Japan…) If we can have go-kart racing in GT5 couldn’t we also have some non-rally dirt racing?
