So many people’s posts and comments go against the AUP. Is being a fanboy against the rules? and LIKE I’ve said many times before, this site is dedicated to GT. Some of you don’t care to take that into account when you’re acting like you have a right to be offensive.
@nellinoz if only you were just a teeny tiny bit smart, you’d see that if you care to talk crap, TokoTurismo intentionally reply with the inconsiderate comments some people make of us FANBOYS. We’re, actually, don’t make biased, irrational statements whenever talking about FM. If we were, it’d be fair to call us fanboys in the negative connotation some of you use, which in turn, makes you look pathetic.

TokoTurismo, ur a star because you have no life and sit on GTPlanet all day -_-

Wow… That was, unnecessary to say. So besically what your saying is I’m not wanted here or on the internet period is that it? Funny how I’m the only one getting targeted and being hated and getting called a fanboy in which I’m not trying to be. Wow… Some people can be a$$holes when ready…
Sniff. It’s just sad that some people are just JEALOUS OF ME!

March 3rd, 2012 at 6:49 pm - #TokoTurismo
And where did you get the idea that I sit on GTP all day. You sit on GTP all day? Understandable. What are ya, a GTP spy or something? Such a “low level” if you ask me. Bye bye, HAHAHAHA!!!

March 3rd, 2012 at 10:20 pm - #neilinoz
You’re not just a fanboi, but a total tool as well….
Every thread, there’s some dumb-ass comments from you..Jealous of a 14 year old who thinks he’s a star?
ROFLMAO!

March 3rd, 2012 at 11:59 pm - #TokoTurismo
Sorry, come again? You can try and bring me down or piss me off all you want, they won’t work on someone like me. What I’m saying is comments like yours are useless and amentur…
I’m now stepping into the intelligent side, and don’t need to waste my time with those like “you” who are hating me for pathetic reasons. Why you two are focused on me and going off topic is beyond me. Go take your negative hatred elsewhere, they’re not wanted here.
Ignored… Conversation over… “Walks away with no worries with his hands in his pants pockets.”

Oh btw, if you were a “star” that everyone admires so much on this site ( haha funny, congrats… You’re a star on a website for a video game :D) then you wouldn’t have replied in the first place
Considering “haters” don’t bother you

I got your back TokoTurismo….there’s nothing wrong with being passionate about something, and defending the things you love. We’ve all done it, no matter how trivial, if you think it worth it then it is. Don’t let this guys discourage you…I’m a fanboi as well, I just say some “not so nice” things about GT5 sometimes that i think need to be said :D. But besidess that I’ll hate on any other franchise first chance I get (except for anything by CodeMasters)

If you have BMX in your name, chances are you’re not old enough to drive a car. Anyway, who cares who is on GT_Planet all day? Good for you if you have the time and if that’s what you like!

“Ignores iDomBMX”
Thanks you very much for your backup @MyFavoriteGame and @Ezekiel76. :) There are good souls in this fantastic website to meet. ^_^ I’ll be more professional for now on, but I’ll like to only speak with you two and @another_jakhole and the others who are also nice as well. ;)

March 6th, 2012 at 4:58 pm - #iDomBMX
Just because I have BMX In my name I can’t drive a car?

iDomBMX… I’m gay and I take that word very seriously. First gay driver in racing… woot XD!
Stop acting like an immature baby… such lessers on this forum, some stupid, pimpled, ticked off 15 year old trolling all night long, like you. XD
I feel like it is necessary for an intelligent person to have a final say on this conversation, so how about I report some of these things that you said about someone’s sexuality or whatever?
You have no right to be here if you are going to behave like that. You should be ashamed of yourself.

+1000 Why did the even introduce them in the first place. Would also be nice to have GT1 events with the correct cars most of which are already in the game. And how about a SUMO RWD GTR, just to break up the fleet of 4WD GTR and Skylines?
Come on PD, give it up dudes.I am sure re-working thing like physics can cause a chain reaction of problems in other parts of the game. But it’s really time to square away the driving physics, damage and various classes of cars and races tace tracks for each type of racing people do.
I dont like drag, but there should be drag strips. We have drift tracks, but not street drift tracks. And I am no drifter.
I do like GT1 and GT3 FIA racing, and there shouild be more of those cars (PORSCHE) and real world tracks.
One place we dont lack is F1 type tracks. Maybe they just dont have enough machine/CPU, memory and band width to do it.
Maybe we’re just wishing/asking for things that can never be.-

That’s very well said but 1 problem, GT5 can’t have Porsches because EA already has a contract with them.
-
March 4th, 2012 at 10:48 am - #MyFavoriteGame
^That doesnt mean that much, Licensing exchanges hands all the time. EA owns all the licensed rights to FIFA and all the Football Clubs, But the allow Komami (who is their direct competitor) to make PES. Its cost Konami more, but i think it worth it to take away EAs monopoly in that genre.
Sooner or later those licenses will shared….especially since EA hasn’t really put out a strong racing game in some time

March 2nd, 2012 at 11:30 pm - #TropesXD
Im happy for every seasonal we get. However I must say id enjoy a greater variety in PP for both A and B-spec though. Also, an A-spec seasonal endurance race would be awesome. A 400, 500, and 650pp each (They’d be worth so much!). An A-spec race on SSR7 would be a great source of income as well. I know this is a bit off topic, but I really hope PD makes the next DLC full of supercars. Ferrari 612, Koeniggsegg, Pagani Hyera, A premium Ruf (!!!), CLK GTR Road Car, Jaguar XJ15, premium XJ220…Im probably getting carried away but Im just happy to be making my first post. :)

As always, there will be people complaining.
There is also be people complaining about people complaining.
Can we just shut up and have a clean comment line?-
March 2nd, 2012 at 10:44 pm - #TokoTurismo
I searched the same post you’d just wrote. But had never found any to be like that… :’(

B-Spec seasonals suck if there’s no A-Spec with them. Kaz, quit being so STINGY with the A-Spec seasonals!!!!

I don’t want to hear fanboyism crying TokoTurismo, etc.
-
March 2nd, 2012 at 8:43 pm - #TokoTurismo
No BWX. You’re right. But I disagree with the “fanboy part”, but you’re right about the B-spec seasonals. Everyone does have the right to complain, just not to ruff. It could help the game improve more also, and I like that. :tup:
But I find it funny how you targeted me though? Putting my name in your sentence. Guess I’m a star again. :D

BWX proved my point. Some of you just LOOOOVE to say fanboys/trolls, which are against the AUP. If you didn’t mention it, nothing would have been wrong with YOU, BWX. Really despicable. Truly pathetic.

That’s a little extreme isn’t it…I love Gran Turismo as much as the other guy but I think people have the right to complain. I love my country, but complain about it sometimes, that doesn’t mean I’m just gonna get up and move to England!….I love my wife, but I know shes not perfect….I think there’s a lot in GT5 that warrants criticism….not the trolling you find here sometimes, but some people have some really genuine things to say about this game….not because you love everything about GT5 means that everyone does.
-
March 2nd, 2012 at 6:45 pm - #TokoTurismo
^ Very true
-
March 2nd, 2012 at 7:52 pm - #MuoNiuLa
@kub29: People have every right to complain about how bland these seasonals are, thank you very much. It’s a perfectly legitimate issue that PD can easily fix.
-
March 3rd, 2012 at 4:44 am - #mister dog
Improving it is one thing, but keeping the formula original and getting the best out of it is another, and there PD fail bigtime lately.
-
March 3rd, 2012 at 12:31 pm - #MyFavoriteGame
To be honest a lot of the time I turn on GT5 I do one of two things…
1- Race online against my friends
2- Arcade Mode; Single Race; A Difficulty; All assists off; Sport/Hard Tires; 5 laps or so of wherever (mostly Nurb).
This my friend, is A-Spec in a nutshell. Also Sport/Hard tires really makes the AI a force to be reckoned with. Try it, its awesome.Yes there’s a lot that needs improving, but seriously guys, its like finding a pot of Gold and complaining about the 3 or 4 silver peaces inside…..
@mister dog – what you said is very interesting , I recently went back and played GT3 for a few hrs with some friends, just trying to understand what made it so much fun to us 10 yrs ago…and its really weird but we just could not figure it out. The graphics are no longer “wowing” , the physics isn’t really the best and its still fun (most of which I attribute to nostalgia)
but “the formula” you speak of….that’s the tricky part, it needs to change while someone feel the same to longtime GT fans. I think PD are really scratching their heads on this one. A lot of people seem like they would’ve been happier with PD re-releasing GT4 with better graphics , more cars, online and a few more game modes…but I just don’t know how that would translate to this new generation of gaming…..very tricky situation.

March 3rd, 2012 at 7:37 pm - #mister dog
Not that hard if you think of it, just making an effort in giving us punters descent seasonals is a start. If it would be up to me (but it isn’t haha) let’s start of with bringing back the supercar championship; 5 races francorchamps, le mans, nur, suzuka, and trial mountain with changing weather at spa, night time conditions at le mans and a morning race at nur with the sun coming up over a dry track.
The possibilities are there because it all exists already ingame, all you need to do is put the events in… But no let’s ignore that one never do it and go for the simple A spec B spec PP limit formula.
Wasted oppurtunities on the verge of ignorance.

My biggest wishes for GT5 right now:
2012 BMW M5
Ferrari F12berlinetta
Get rid of the “next lap invalidated” thing if u cut a corner because theresno point ot it and it gets SO ANNOYING!!thanks in advance PD :)

I don’t mind doing b-spec events on seasonal. What I do mind now is how low the rewards are since that 200% bonus. I miss that Ferrari seasonal the most of them all really. My fluorescent blue enzo was always dominate lol. Heres a short list of the stuff GT5 needs or should bring back…
1. All standards upgraded fully to premium. its lame the 2J has a fairly detailed interior now but the needles dont move haha
2. An update that’ll add more a-spec/B-spec races to the actual GT mode.
3. More rewards for seasonal races. And it’ll be better still if the 200% bonus stays along with that. Some people still need the 20 million dollar cars lol
4. After a certain amount of days of consecutive log ins, you should get a reward… like a free car ticket or something.
5. No museum thing. BTW IF ANYONE WANTS ANY OR ALL OF MY CARDS PLEASE ADD ME ON PS3 chucksstuntman :)
6. Bring back the old timey cars I loved trying to race in GT4… like the 1888 carriages lol or even the 2020 (?) Nike car
7. Free DLC at least for a short time. that track was just not worth the price i dont think. neither were the cars. -
March 2nd, 2012 at 4:34 am - #tawfiq
F12, M5 f10 and Ultima GTR
-
March 2nd, 2012 at 7:57 am - #padix
The M5 F10 is my biggest wish 2, but we can wish now and PD will deliver 6 month later… or probably never.
Look at Turn10 PD, monthly DLC´s. Forza even gets the BMW 850 this month.

Jordan needs to get Polyphony to have a special GTP weekly / monthly Event as voted by GTP members or chosen in some way by someone from GTP.
Then we would see events that are exciting and challenging… the community would get some recognition and Polyphony would get some work done for free!

le mans..who wont it
