in the impreza video there was no damage. :/
i’m not sure if you’ve realised, but there has been no damage to any of the cars from any of the videos from E3. the damage model doesn’t seem to have been implemented in this build… which might be a good thing – we don’t want PD giving everything away at once, before the release… they’ve already given us several tracks and cars, as well as day-night transition!
The track is alright, but they need to put some waving flags like in supr gt (in real life)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhHuuT5zmVE&feature=related . It gives a lot more realistic look to the gameplay and the replays.
Still gt5 is cool, but nothing will stop me from crying after knowing, that there won’t be cockpits on the standard cars. What next. No custumisation for stanard cars or what. Jeez, this is just dissapointing !!! :-( :-( :-(
6 f.cking years and no cockpit wtf ?
P.S sry for the link it’s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZhHuuT5zmVE&feature=related
and also if it’s possible on ps3, Please do some 3d spectators outside the track. I know,you need to do one spectator for at least 2 years, but please I can help you to do something. I know how to program 3d animation or skid marks from the cars. I can also help you with cockpit designing, but please get the f.cking game finished !
@Damo: watch the video with the LP560-4. There is damage
I basicly like gt5. It is the best driving game out there, but there are some simple things which need improvements. This things are small, but without them there is no perfection. Simple as that ! :D
@ Wolgibkay
I guess some people are never pleased. I’m sure once these ideas you have are implemented into the next iterations you’ll have something else to complain about.
I don’t know why everyone keeps moaning about the demos. They are clearly designed to keep everything under wraps.
The proper damage model doesn’t look like its on, there is no weather, no rollover etc….
These demos are just PD giving us the absolute minimum.
Otherwise none of the info released lately would have been such a nice surprise.
@ oscartron
You call that damage?
This is the demo though, as we will see the full damage model by game’s release time
@Wolgibkay07 Well done in pointing out PD’s shortcomings in the making of this game. If only you’d been there in the meeting where Kaz and the team decided they’d only port the 4000 polygon models of the cars from GT4 instead of spending another 7.7 million man hours(a serious estimation going by previous mootings by Kaz over the developement cycle) remodelling them all for the new game. I’m sure they’d have made a plaque for your office in PD as well as your own post room to store all your fan mail from fans of the game for delaying the game by another year or two. You would be a hero for that, especially as it would completely change the driving characteristics of the cars in this racing game.
You’d have had no time to read all your letters though as you’d be busy doing the important job of using up all the resources and memory in the PS3. Who cares if with all those extra polys on the cars you can only have 4 of them racing because the crowd looks fantastic!! Even better, on a 24hr race let’s use up more memory and graphical crunching to putting 25,000 skidmarks on the track per car.
PD, if you’re listening, you need Wolgibkay07. You might need to go back to the drawing board, but when GT5 is released in 2013, it’ll be the best darn game ever!
Damn i wish the WRC would start using those orange fences. They are so strong, PD, should tell us were they bought it from!
Great videos and nice track! Although I’m happy to realise that cars sound much better than GT4 and most games on the market, it’s still too far from real life. I wounder how can an old game, like Need For Speed Porsche Unleashed still has better engine sound effects than recent games?!? Strange, isn’t it?
I don’t think the sounds are far from real life. Almost all the cars sound exactly like they do in real life. For example I know the 147 ti sounds exactly the same because I drive a real one.
4th comment
Awesome driving with Toms Supra GT 3
Yea that thing was on the limit.
Yea that dude was a beast!
Is it just me or those sparks in the second video look like welding???
You’re right, it’s not realistic.
Not only that, but apparently 2 cars rubbing panels while travelling at the same speed causes an angle grinder type effect in between them. I’m sorry, but I watch my fair share of tin-top racing, from Aussie V8 Stupidcars to FIA GT, WTCC etc. and i’ve never seen such sparks between vehicles.
I seriously hope they remove that crap from the game before release.
In impreza vid the smoke is just awesome. Can you imagine the drift trial with several cars. + some tire drawings (skid marks). Only one word: astonishing !:D
sparks are a little over the top.
yeah they should definitely remove the sparks when two vehicles moving at the same speed are making contact. they should only appear if a vehicle makes contact with a barrier/wall.
Sparks are a bit cheap.
We loose backfires and glowing brake discs (that I want back) and gain sparks? Work that logic out.
You need a tremendous speed difference to create sparks sufficient enough to make the particles glow red hot. Bumping another car is very arcade racer and not GT at all.
To be honest, I’m surprised that PD has managed to get the sparks so wrong, considering the attention to detail on every other part of the game. Those sparks looks extremely arcade and look very out of place in a simulation game such as GT5 aspires to be. You never see sparks fly between 2 cars rubbing like that, at the very least the only sparks you would see are the ones coming from the chassis hitting the pavement, which of course could be a beautiful sight.
lol for the people who say that the sparks look arcade-ish must’ve not looked at the fact that it was in arcade mode lol arcade mode has different stuff than simulation mode if im not mistaken and its been that way since GT1 lol i remember trial mountain on arcade mode had steeper hills on the straight in the forest so that you could jump higher but in simulation mode they were gone lol and it took me forever to find out why it was like that.
And maybe this is of the same nature, in simulation mode they might not be there
Everytime I see new stuff I get more and more excited.
And the GT3 lap is amazing.
sick , sick , SICK , AARRGGGGG
Offroad GT-R? heh
Just a bunch of new vids :P
Although it is nice to see the sparks, gravel, and hay effects
I’ve seen a vid of f1 going off-road(cheat used). :D
this game is unbelievable , how AM I SUPPOSED TO SLEEP
its all coming along nicely, shame the driving in the 3rd video isnt very good! i always thoughts the arrows indicate a turn is near, not an invitation to slam into it.
AI still crashes into you, the Ferrari-sound is like the often quoted vacuum cleaner (i believe you can guess the sound quality, even its recorded at an exhibition with low quality and so on). Hm, i am missing the atmosphere of a real race, GT5 looks and feels for sure fantastic, but it´s so sterile (skidmarks anyone? =) ). I hope the car “dirtening” makes it better. Anyway, lets see the final version.
sound needs serious work. not happy
This is looking better and better each day
if you have a look at the picture of the front of the orange Dodge Charger you will see the windows are not tinted and the driver is clearly visible as well as the steering wheel and what looks like a minor detailed interior dashboard
maybe thats what some of the standard cars interiors will look like assuming this is a standard car
It’s a premium car
@ Bekim: Um, no! PD confirmed the muscle cars were standard. Get your facts straight.
@Rasmus
You can see in the car selection video from E3 that it’s a premium car. All the muscle cars on the screenshots are premium.
Wuhahahaha, some of the worst drivers ever. Even my Guineapig laughed it’s ass off while watching this !
At least they’re playing the game while you’re playing with your Guineapig! LOL.
I think we sometimes forget that it took all of us some time to master driving techniques in this game.
Why do ALL the lucky bastards getting to play the demo SUCK?!? Get the GT3 driver out there to give it a go!
Why are they inviting people who don’t give a damn. If they would, they played GT before and they know you will have to brake before corners. Why don’t invite people who care….
^^I’m still available. Don’t even need to get paid for it…
I really love how the GT series is evolving. Cannot wait to experience the new physics with all these cars. The sound isn’t giving me goose bumps yet, although it’s definately a step up from Prologue. Nice to hear that transmission in the ASL.
Also thank you Jordan for bringing up my old lap again! Definately one of the tracks I enjoyed most. PD, could you please make this track available as DLC? ;-)
No damage on last video?
Looks very good. All details around the track are very realistic, they made all the boardings, cranes and ambulances just like it would be in a reallife streetrace.
I am glad to see the elevation in the track, the Gt3 track missed that, this gifs a good Rome feel.
Overall the tracks of GT5 are looking fantastic and I can’t wait to finaly see the full London track.
Cool Videos, but wow, the GT3 game looks terrible in every possible way. Good that GT5 will be more realistic. Despite all the new features, the best thing about GT5 will be the cockpit view for at least 200 cars. The head tracking could be fantastic as well, if it works the way it should!
TrackIR (head tracking) is just another stupid gimik to sell expensive hardware. Seriously, when i’m playing GT and I turn my head, to the left I see curtains and to the right I see a stairwell and cupboards.
In order for head tracking to work you HAVE to keep your eyes on the screen while you turn your head, which is not a natural movement and makes it a pointless stupid gimik.
Head-tracking: DO NOT WANT
3D (another gimik): DO NOT WANT
gt3 has better sfx. its a joke
Without doubt some of the most shocking driving yet seen in a GT5 video. Hugos lap on the other hand…driving god!!!
I noticed two things in the Gamersyde videos, in the Lambo one there is dammage on the car, you can see a part of the rear spoiler detaching also, nice physics, the guy crashes because he puts the inside wheel in the rut between the fence and the vibrator which makes the car spin. In the Subaru video at one point he crashes into a Lexus IS and makes it spin, you can see the AI car waits for an opportunity to rejoin instead of diving in front of oncoming cars. Small details, but it just shows that GT has come a long way.
AI cars do that too in prologue, they wait until road is clear before getting back on track
Yeah, never really noticed this in Prologue…okay then, still, the game looks great.
Well really after me racing for several days online and then sitting back to Forza 3 and gt5p. I noticed the difference. In forza 3 they don’t fight back. Gt5p they are passive. In real online game you touch someone while you and your oponent going 185 mph you/he just fly out of the track. You can’t find that in any game. Also real players some times help/wait for you for the drafting and sleepstreaming. Real drivers get tired and don’t fight so much. Some real drivers don’t drive as fast as others (even with the same cars). They also fight against each other. They don’t wait for you when you crash, so it will be easier to win . It needs to be, so if you crash you stay at the place you are and lose if you need to. Like in real life.
I don’t think that sim games will ever get the AI to this lever, so I think iCyCo the best thing is to play online games for the real driving experience. :D
Are they crashing on purpose or are they just really bad at this game.
Much prefer the less rigid chase cam that GT3 & GTPSP employ. It’s the view I use when playing.
Please Kaz, for those who use it; loosen it, or at least set at option/slider where we could set the rigidity of it ourselves, so it doesn’t feel like we’re driving the track round a static car! It just doesn’t feel right. It’s probably only a small thing for most people in the grand scheme of things, but for me is my main/only issue. If it remains as is, then it’ll have to be the cockpit view for me.
Everything else; the graphics, features etc are bob on!

Agree 100%.
I actually like how “rigid” the exterior behind the car view is… refer in GT5-Prologue!
I agree that at least Kaz should offer us the option to modify the rigidity of the 3rd perspective…
is the 3rd vid a challenger?
looks like it
it’s a 2010 Camaro
is it standard?
No surprise to hear people whining about the sparks…
Leave the game on the shelf if they bother you that much.
I know, it’s getting ridiculous. Not just the whining about the sparks, but the crying and moaning in general. I love GTP but the GT5 forum these days is just full of unconstructive whinging that I can’t even bring myself to look at it anymore.
GT5 is what it is, if you don’t like it, don’t buy it!
First of all, I’ll buy the game, in fact I pre-ordered it last week. And as soon as it comes out it will never leave my PS3, I played them all and i will play this one, cause it’s an awesome game/simulator and the best there is!!!!!!
For the rest, I am not a whiner, just saying that I find the sparks unrealistic. And if you say they are realistic then that’s your opinion.
But I will not leave it in the shelf because of some sparks.
plus i fink pd do look at these forums so its not pointless whining. some of our requests could actually change the game
Maybe there’s an on/off possibility for sparks, just like “blood” in some shooter-games like MGS
Sparks and blood………..I see the similarity…lol…….just kidding
btw sparks in GT4 looked better (whine,whine)
Actually what’s ridiculous is not our complaints, but how fanboyism is getting out of control. Any kind of complain is being followed with response like “Leave the game on the shelf” or “don’t buy the game” or even “go play Forza”.
There is nothing wrong with complaints themselves, they all have a clear point. Just like those sparks that look like **** and they’re unrealistic. And if you say that those sparks look real… well we’re about to found a new religion that calls Kazmania.
I can’t wait to see more of the Standard Cars, particularly a driving video where the user tries to find a cockpit view so this debate can be ended once and for all.
i find gt3 is more fun !!
Wow… you have played GT5 to be able to make the comparison. Lucky you!!
PD listen up! Remove those welding sparks from release build. Please!
I like the photos and vids, but there is a long way to go to pgr4.

And this is 3 years old already !
there are quite MINIMAL details, that let you see in screenshot 2 and 3, that it is a computer game.
superb driving on Toscana in the second video. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anyone spin a car whilst moving so slowly before.
Ferrari’s sound is awful… GT5 is beautiful but i can’t get ride off hearing such vacuum cleaner sound! Whereas Forza did a good job this way…
they do and i am a massive fezza fan huge disappointment. However i am more concerned about lazy v8 cars. They just sound like someone sucking in air. Also the sound of the slr is godawful in real life it sounds like a thunder powered spitfire
(Standard vs Premium) related
Ok one of those pictures clearly shows the very detailed model of a Corvette Stingray Convertible. Now in the official PD Standard car video there is a Corvette Stingray Coupe. Now if the Corvette Stingray Convertible from the pic is a “Standard” car then the whole idea of them being less detailed can be killed completely as that model is damn perfect. And if it isn’t a “Standard” model then it begs the question why PD didn’t just use the Corvette Stingray Convertible model and chop the top off for the Coupe version?
No one said, that the standard cars look like GT4. That is a rumor of the community. Also the standard cars looks great.
But all the kiddies are crying about the word “standard” and “GT4 conversion”
the one should is a stingray coupe. it just has a vinyl top
That’s right, so called standards are as beautiful and shiny as the premium cars. We’ll see the differences in the interior soon, I guess
The second video has head tracking enabled right?
unless he is hitting left or right on the d-pad constantly.
It´s like watching porn.
What?!?! No it isn’t! *pulls hand out of pants*
Ha, ha. LOL.
Actually CaptinKeezy is right ! :D
Oh…eem….what ?? ..no, I didn’t !
I absolute dont like the stupid sliding of the cars with the “iiiiiiiiihhhhhhh” of the wheels … that sucks!
The rest of the game loooks just amazing !
18 megapixels? That’s one mighty expensive camera.
haha :D
Not camera. It’s a photo made by the new photo engine implimented into GT5. LOL !:D
I hope this is the kind of photo we will be able to produce in the photo mode… 18MPIX, here we are?!! Can anybody confirm that… will totally bites the small restrictive size of FM3…
The collision phisics still sucks pd shame. 6 years no cockpit view shame shame shame.
Forza 3, 2 years 400 cockpits. GT5, 6 years 200 cockpits.
Forza 200 cockpits per year.
Gran turismo 33 cockpits per year.
Wtf ? People in pd are lazy basrtards,which don’t want to work, cos i don’t see much of a difference between these two games.
I think it’s time to say:
Forza rocks, Gran turismo sucks. :D
Then go back to your 360 Wolgibkay and stop trolling on a GT fansite!!
They didn’t spend 6 years ONLY making cockpits, so your “People in pd are lazy basrtards,which don’t want to work” comment really doesn’t stand true or make any sense!
Chris and Wiretap,
well now I am playing gt5 prologue,so the statementof Chris is wrong and WiretapI means saying that they had too much time to complete the game and I think that everybody will agree with me. :D
wolgibkay, you’re right.. but have you noticed how crappy the cockpits look in forza? i was discusted when i saw them
forza might have cockpits on all cars, but they don’t look very well made. the colors look washed out, and the modeling doesn’t seem to be a one-to-one replica, like in gt. Modeling those things take a lot of time, and patience and in forza i think they didn’t give that much attention to the cockpits, and it shows. the difference between the detailed exterior of the cars, and the not so great cockpits is noticable. On the other hand, in gt5 its obvious that the attention was put on the whole car exterior and cockpits. with that said, each cockpit in gt5 is worth like 10 cockpits from forza.
@freeman140 :nods: in approval
@Wolgibkay07 do you have definitive proof of that????
remove those standars cars from the game and realise more real world tracks better thats what all gt5 fans wants ok.
Andre,
I think that to have standard carsis still better than nothing, isn’t ?
Speak for yourself!!!!!!
Okay HanGTX. Be cool :D !!!
Yes!Your comment:10/10!
half agree. If it turns out that no cockpits are included then yes they should have put resources into getting more tracks and premium cars. If it turns out they are just a bit less detailed than premium cars then i don’t agree. Only time can give us an answer
Say something that is false 1000 times, and it will be true.
Maybe this is the point about all those whiners =) Throw shit over GT
no standart cars don’t have cockpit view, tiny windowed all cars it’s ugly this is no good this is very bad situation right now. pd need to remove standarts cars from the game.
yeah,you are right
The 800 cars still are better than cars in normal games around there. ANDRE :D
And look,/8 screen/ugly 2D!!spectators outside the track:(
800 GT4HD cars.
20 tracks.
The king using 2D tech:(
Look NFS!!not using 2D spectators:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ieul-6VvISE&feature=related
But only arcade game……..My favorite game GT,but the GT5 many problems:(
Would yo people stop nagging about the standard and premium cars and be happy with what you get…
The game looks amazing right? So stop nagging and if you don’t like the standard cars use the 200+ premium cars. Before having driven all of these GT6 will be out.
How many games do you know of this level of detail which provides 200+ high detailed cars?
You’re absolutely right with that ! My GT4 garage is stuffed with more than 800 cars, only about 50 are my favorites. So, I’m fine with these 200 premium, but I’ll like the 800 others just as much, because cockpit-view isn’t too important for me
Haha, just want the old cars to be in the game. Like them more then most new cars these days.
HenGTX,
I enjoy too driving cars from 1888 with my friends. Racing at 11 kph (normal people run faster). LOL :D
Talking about the seventies, eighties en nineties haha LOL
I want a Vintage-car cup (and seventies, of course !)
Right said Nemesis
its nice to see that we can drive ‘normal’ cars on toscana.
beautiful track.
The stig,
Right said. Plz more info, more vids, more gameplay ! :D
Now that all the new features have been unearthed, it seems we got what we all wanted, but all it’s done is make everyone question whether it’ll be good or not now? What is wrong with you people, its coming and thats all that freaking matters. 5 years these guys have been working on this game, 5 YEARS THE POOR GUYS, and imo, they’ve done a superb, spectacular job, and it will be the best racing game ever. So shut up lol
Oscartron,
6 years, not 5. :D
Gt4 came out on December 28, 2004 in Japan meaning you could buy it there as I did (while being n holidays) !!! :D
“Ferrari only” event on the first screenshot :))
Mambo No 5,
Well as i can see not many ferraris are implimated into gt5.
LOL :D
Glad to see that handling is still king in these games.
Well, if I remember correctly, it is the first time, we get to see the F40 in GT5. Or am I wrong ? :)
*Dreaming of S6 GT5P event*
The F-40 was also in GT5 Prologue ;)
D’oH. Just re-read your post. You mean the first time we’ve seen an F-40 in a GT5 video? I think it could well be yes ;)
Mambo No 5,
F40 was in gt5p and every body liked it.
Yes, indeed, but have we seen screenshots of the F40 in Gt5 ?
yes. 1st screen. Red f40 just behind a white california
Come on people, stop the bullsh*t about these cars being Premiums. We’re already been told by Sony or PD that the muscle cars are STANDARD cars. So the thing being said about the standard cars having black/dark tinted windows and not looking any better than GT4 is simply WRONG.
I mean, look at these pictures!! They look great! The Charger in these pictures looks just as good as any model in ex. Shift, GRID or Forza.
You can also easily tell that the cockpit inside those cars have been modeled, but the question still remains whether or not we will have a cockpit driving view.
Rasmus,
So why did gran turismo sent us this vid with these cars in it. What these cars are basic not standard or what. There is a vid on this website which shows the list of cars in e3 demo and Charger is in the list of premium cars. I know that it’s good to imagine that standard cars will have cockpits, but it’s just imposible, it’s not true, it isn’t like that. I am sorry to ruin your and other gtfans’ dream.
Oh, snap! You’re right :D guess I should’ve looked closer. I stand corrected!
Wolgibkay07 – 17 (rather confusing) posts and counting… you’re either a monumentally bored forza fanboy, or you accidentally put speed in your coffee this morning
No, I’m just soo bored and i am not a forza fanboy althrough I bought forza 2 and 3. I also have gran turismo 1, 2, 3, 4 prologue, 4 , 5 prologue and psp. So I’m kinda in the middle.
‘What these cars are basic not standard or what’
This is a brutal sentence!!
these cars are Premium. There will be two different classes of cars in gt5 premium and standard (basic was just my joke). :D
wow the lambo vid is really smooth!
Pranl,
It looks more realistic, because the cockpit moves around and the sound is alright. Also at the end of the video we can see damage, which is coool :D
GT5, in general, is the smoothest game I’ve seen in a long time, and it’s shaping up to be pretty good, except for engine sound and physics (at least, by the looks of the physics, I’m not a pro or anything :P).
BTW, are the physics real? Cause the cars look more slippery as opposed to real life.
Does GT5 have muffler backfire? I loved that from GT4 and greatly missed it in GT5p. Can anyone confirm?
Jamaicangmah,
I course it will, so don’t worry about it. :D
Oh i sure hope so i loved it.
+1 missing backfires and glowing red brake discs.
More horrific driving, YAY!
Paulo,
Yea you are right, but it’s difficult to find a person who would be really good driving a new gt5 handling engine and in some vids people crash to find out, if the is any damage.
But yea you are mainly right. :D
Regarding the ‘leaked’ info about the game, KY was apparently disappointed because it was KY who was supposed to release it. However, I think it was translated so we can’t be sure about the new features. I think we should wait to here it from the respected man himself.
Really there is nothing we can do, so we just need to wait for what we’ll have at the final product.
i noticed that the sound of the cars is allot more realistic since previous demo versions, thats great 8-)
OI haven’t noticed this doesn’t sound like the 458 Italia one bit this really sucks. The Carsounds is Forza 2 are even better than this crap and don’t tell me it’s because its made with a camera.
The SLS AMG sounds a lot different in real life.
I guess it’s not going to be any better.
the gt3 engine sfx sound much better than that Ferrari. pd need to work at this seriously. have u heard a real Ferrari? that is ridiculous
there is a difference, from where you hear a ferrari.
when u are on the hood, there cant be to much sound, because the human ear won’t catch sounds from the in-the-back-placed-engine, or the exhaust, it will catch sounds from cars in front of you. And the sounds of those haven’t been heard yet.
Also remember, that the audio is being washed out from the TV-Screen –> Youtube
Mr KY has mentioned a few comments in his tweets, quite separatory i’d say…could we see the GT series venturing down a new road in future…?
In the 3rd video, that’s a new camaro. You can clearly see that there isn’t any damage done to the hood (and he drives in it fairly quickly). That means that it’s not premium and I can’t help but notice he’s using the interior view. Even after a lot of beating, the hood of the car is fine.
No Damage = Not Premium Car
yet, it still has interior view. This means all cars have interior view.
thats what i was thinking, but who knows..
standard cars do have damage they just don’t have seperating body panels
It’s been said that not all races will include damage. I read that on this site, posted by this site or either on the official GT site.
Also, maybe there are certain levels of damage that can be turned on or off.
The Camaro is premium. Look at the car selection on the second video
@ Iron Maiden, it iiiis a premium car, standard cars won’t have interiors! Give up already lol…
….and standard will have damage. Just not to the extent of Premium. Lordy lordy.
Jordon, have you found any 8MP screenshots of the Top Gear Test Track?
These Rome screenshots look stunning!
Well guys, the person driving the camaro hits the wall at least 3 times right on the front of the car, yet the hood is intact. That does it for me. Unless someone shows us a car selection screen with the 2010 camaro that says “premium” at the bottom left corner, then I’ll believe it.
@Hot-wok
That’s based on a (possibly crappy) translation. They had some crappy cars in GT5P **cough** Cappuccino **cough*cough** and they all had interior views. They won’t be as precise (every stitching on the dashboard, shifter, etc) for standard cars but for premium cars, those cars will look like the real deal.
@Marcus/Berlino Bear – Premium cars will surely have their hood deformed (since premium have full damage model, not just dislocating body panels and bumpers), unlike the camaro in the 3rd video, hence the fact the camaro is a standard car.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uBqkvh2gi5c&feature=player_embedded
The first frame of this shows exactly what you requested.
Having said that, I still have no worries over standard vs. Premium cars because we get what we get.
@Iron Maiden
I’d agree. I don’t think they’d add cars which would be less detailed than GT5P?
If you go to the following (official GT5) website: http://eu.gran-turismo.com/gb/news/d13413.html
Under the heading “Updated and Included from Previous Series…” there is a movie which is called standard E3 cars. So there were standard cars at E3.
On page 4 there is a picture of a nissan fairlady underwhich the details of the damage levels are explained clearly. The question offcourse remains what PD classifies as a dent.
Now please can we stop this eternal moaning about standard cars not being as expected without having any actual details.
Have you seen a SINGLE user-played video from E3 in ANY of the premium confirmed cars that have damage? No-damage was not turned on in the E3 demo release for players to use, it was only shown in the E3 trailers. Honestly, look at all given facts and data before jumping to a conclusion.
@derStig: You should reevaluate your definition of the word fact…
Whats with the hovering thing over the crane in the last photo!?
Looks like a glitch, hehe. Also, I wouldn’t like to stand on that platform, as it’s connection to the crane seems a bit weak
I think it’s a camera with a 0D person behind it
It looks like a Tv Camera that is covered in case of rain.
i enjoy the gt3 video most =P
The GT3 clip has got me all sentimental. Man that brings back memories. I used to push the Alfa 155DTM round there just as hard.
Awesome!
i want this game now!
As do 16,746,253 other people worldwide; me included. Do the maths at £39.95 a copy! Ker-ching!
Price here is set at 65 Euro (NL)
@HenGTX: Order it on amazon.co.uk It’s what I do. It’s cheaper to let them send it, It usually takes about 2 days.
Everything looked so awesome until those horrible exaggerated sparks in the second video. Yikes. Way too over the top. That is one weird effect to see in a GT game. That looks more suited for a Ridge Racer game instead of a simulation.
I want to see offical Standard cars gameplay,and cockpit view!!800>200.
Look at the two comments I made earlier today… !
I think Iron Maiden still didn’t get it!
This Camaro is a Premium car, like many people already responded!
And the damage is just turned off!
Because Standard cars will also have damage Iron Maiden, just no dislocated body parts!
So your last comments can just be ignored Iron!!
I hope the Paris circuit will be back… so far we haven’t seen any pictures of it… I also want the night paris track, which is very similar in nature to the current London track…
Anyone second that?
yea that was a great circuit… full of atmosphere
Those textures on buildings look awful. Shame it’s not on pc.
mm guys, I think they get people who suck at this game so they don’t let you see how good the physics really are, if you know what I mean. Oh and is it just me, or should the gear shift be a bit more of a jerk reaction type of animation, not some calm, slow motion gear change? 0_0 Oh btw, ENGLAND WON 1-0 WHOOOOOOOO :P
I really wish they would just leave the spectators out if they are going to be 2d. The ones that are trackside and 3d look good, but the ones in the grandstands really ruin the overall look of an otherwise beautifully rendered track.
i’m sure the with all the things pd have put into the game that a cockpit view will be in standard cars,you can’t call it a simulator if only 200 cars have cockpit view,even if it is a simple version of the interior on 800+ cars but i do think sony should confirm it
look above
Why do they always have monumentally awful drivers driving in the demo vids?
I ask myself the same thing. -_-
I don’t know if anybody else has noticed this, but it’s been a pet hate of mine ever since GT1, but I knew they couldn’t do anything about it back then. It’s the clouds in the sky, they move when you go round a corner, or anywhere really. In real life if you’re driving and you look out the window, the clouds don’t move, they seem static as you move. In GT, the sky and the horizon all move about, like some giant piece of wallpaper stuck to a cardboard cutout. It realy spoils the illusion and feeling of depth. look at vid 2, the sky sometimes takes up 2/3rds of the screen on the rally track. so it matters to me. Rant over.
where’s the backfire from the exhaust? glowing disc brakes? did PD forget to add these effects into GT5?
yes Yes YES!!!!!!!!! WHERE ARE THESE EFFECTS
Compare the shadows of the cars in the first pic to the last pic, both being overhead shots…the first pic is really glitchy.
6 million people talking about GT5 on different forums. A lot of people are against the features,graphics, etc…others are madly loves it. But all of the 6 millions people will buy it when its hit the shops, after they will start an other agreement about the GT. I couldn’t understand. If someone likes GT5, go on,lets get it. If someone doesn’t happy with the game, there is an other way to drive hundreds of cars and paint them and crash them…FORZA. These news and videos from the GT5 are showing us what we have to wait. These things are done, the full version won’t be worst. So follow the news and try to don’t complain about minot things. Sparks. They shows sparks for us now. But in the game -possibly- we get cool flying paint peaces. Is it sound good? Yes. If we won’t get cool stuff, that will be it. I don’t think anyone will sell or don’t buy the game because of silly sparks. The GT5 will be a good game on its own way. Maybe i will buy it, I really think I will. But because of seriously much negative comments and sad opinions I’m not 100% sure about the realistic and quality of the GT. And I’m not the only one! Sorry my english isn’t great!
So true man. But I think people are being too picky, so I think GT5 will be the best car game ever.
Yes Kaz is a victom of his own quest for perfection, now everyone has impossibly high expectations for GT5 and then complain bitterly when those seemly are not met. I think we should give the man and the team at PD a break – they are pouring their heart and soul into this game and despite any minor niggles we might have with it in the finish it will be the greatest driving/racing car ever (until GT6).

My apologies to Nato777, I left out the _ in my name and accidently posted under yours.
Muscle cars Premium/6 screen/,Mercedes CLK-GTR Standard/0:18/:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z8v7hjaSr6c
How many GT and WRC cars premium in GT5,15-20?:(
I’m taking a bet that the sparks were a last minute pitch in for the demos. Most likely the guys at PD will either edit them or remove them altogether for the release. And I’m sure they didn’t remove backfire or the glowing disc breaks we all love. They wouldn’t spend 6 years to screw it all up now. What would be nice is if they simulate wind blowing through trees. Thats something they should work on.
On a side note – I wish someone would record a proper lap!
Online will be easy with these drivers on track. I mean wow they are bad
Hi guys
I just read on to german ps3 news websites that PD confirmed cockpit view for the standard cars. They got it via email from PD.
Maybe Jordan can make things clear on that.
I heard the same thing last week. PD say all cars WILL have cockpit view, just that the standard ones will be less detailed than premiums. The quality will still be above anything else on the shelf now.
Can you get a link on this news in here?
PD yet again fails to give us Rome fans what we wanted…the OLD Rome. This new Rome is like Hong Kong. Boring, monotone, this Rome is just…worse.
Is it me or is the day and night cycle very fast??
It’s probably just to show the cycle quick since it’s a demo.
Yeah if you watch some of the e3 floor coverage they say they sped it up to exaggerated the effect and show it off.
It’s sped up.
I HATE those sparks…. looks like someone at PD thought it was a good idea to bring a metal grinder to work that day. And that sense of speed needs a bit of tweaking, and I already gave up about the sounds… basically everything outside of Japan sounds like absolute crap. The GTR is true to life, the JGTC cars sounds perfect… but cant get a Ferrari or any v8 for that matter to sound right… a damn shame
You aare totally right about the sounds!
IMO the car game with best sounds was GTR 2, which is still one of my favorite racing games, beside GT and GT Legends which also has very nice sounds!
That guy in the first vid is a great driver! So is the GT3 Rome video. In my opinion, I could care less about sparks, but hey if we have them, great. The off-road looks awesome! did anyone notice the little chunks of dirt and hay flying off the tires?
Did anyone else notice that, in the Rome picture with the Colosseum (if that’s spelled right), the only car that has a shadow is the white 458 Italia (in the front)? The lighting of the cars looks to me like they’re photo-shopped in… I’m not saying it’s bad or anything, just kinda weird.
Why all in those videos people bad drivers? maybe they don’t drive car in real life? Or maybe Gran Turismo 5 is arcade racing game, or fake driving phisics? can you explain me?
‘They are clearly designed to keep everything under wraps.’
I agree, it is absolutely clear PD are showing the odd feature here and there but holding the total package.
Do people not realise these limited demos are what they say on the tin………………demos!
Although these new tracks look interesting, I can’t wait to see all the tracks – I am sure they would have improved on the GT5P tracks. I particularly like the way the tracks have been rendered, showing much more undulations or track elevation etc – ie the effect of going uphill/downhill is much better, whereas in GT5P the tracks were somewhat ‘flat’
I want more tracks like Mugello, Albert Park, Gilles Villeneuve, Charade Circuit, Circuit Park Zandvoort, Donington Park, Spa, N-Ring (the one where they drive the F1 now), the Ascari Race resort track. Tracks with much much much more character than these dull Rome, Paris, London, Tokyo tracks…
other than that…its looking quite nice
Ye man need more real world tracks. i don’t like those city tracks brrrrr
I think if PD aspire to have the most cars they can, then they should think about having the most tracks, too! But think about this for a second; on the Home screen of GT5P, when it shows all of the weather and temps of the different areas of the world, they show some pretty interesting tracks.
Now every real world track that GT4 had and is confirmed for GT5, they show the weather, that is;
Suzuka
Le Mans
Monte Carlo
Monterey
Sonoma
Daytona Beach
Fuji
Motegi
Nurburg and
Tsukuba.
Those are all either in GT4 or confirmed GT5 tracks. Now the REAL interesting part is the other tracks, perhaps just fodder? Or a taste of things to come?
Magny Cours
Imola
Jerez!!
Hockenheim
Estoril!
Zolder
Shanghai
Silverstone
SPA!!
Brands Hatch!!!1! and
Monza!!
I didn’t notice Valencia but I’m to believe that’s a confirmed track for GT5. These are of course my presumptions, but they seem mighty eerie…
I’d like to see Jarama too. It was made by the same designer of Suzuka and it has appeared on other games as well
What camera view was it in the first vid? It looks like roof cam…. and no hood cam >:( noooooooooooooooooo
If they are not going to put cockpit view for the standard cars, I want at least a hood cam, not a roof cam. Roof cam is completely useless and too high for driving.
crap it is a roof view… the last vid with the benz is also a roof cam (although we can only see the hood, but you can tell it is way too high to be a hood level)
What’s with the roof cam anyway, it’s useless for anything really – I’ve never used it (not even for replays)! They definitely need to scrap that and make it a hood cam. The bumper cams ok but it’s much better and more realistic to be looking out over the bonnet.
Toyota Supra woodone in Gt4 prologue was the best engine sound ever! =)
Well done to Hugo Boss for driving the Supra! Really gives an idea of the thrill that we will have on those new tracks. Really scary fast at times, so narrow
Never played GT3 myself, but you know what… the clip from it does not look bad at all! :)
Never played GT3? Get the hell off this website.
Let’s not be mean, here… I never play GT1, 2, 3, or 4, only GT5 Prologue. It took only one race to get me hooked!
Man, you missed the complete history of GT. Shame………….
Sure is a shame. I still remember the first time I played GT1, stayed up till 6am then went to work at 8am.
having knowledge on how 3d modeling works, after looking at these 18mega pix shots, i would say its not too hard to model a track like Rome. If i was given a job to model a track like Rome I am sure i can knock it off in about 2 weeks.
20GB sound update please! I wonder if PD will introduce Premium sound. Whatever sound update they could generate that would cover all cars would probably be enough though, but something has to be done. They sound so meek and nasal and jetsons-like..not loud, obnoxious and terrifying
Anyway, with a track editor being a real possibility, its not a huge problem.
but there should most definitely be a camera-view editor!
Cool, my real name is also Fritz! GRT2-like sounds would be great! Would also like to hear/see some backfire!
Track editor would be great, but I’m still suspicious of this news!
I love the improvements to the tire smoke, cant wait to white smoke my tires to the rim on my Camaro and ZR1! :)
The ambulances looks laughably awful. Not that we would notice in-game, but I’d rather not have them there since they look like are little toy cars. Also, the tent supports are invisible and the Colosseum and some trees look a bit blocky.
Other than that, it looks fantastic.
New particle effects look great
@ Hugo Boss
Ahh sweet memories of a great course :-D
Absolutely great lap, i myself could do that lap just like you… oh wait no i couldn’t lmfao.
It’s amazing to see how much improvement has been made over the years though, perhaps when the game finally does come out lets see how Hugo would compare to his original lap :-D
Actually wouldn’t that be good with every GT player?
When we see the list of courses see how you did in the old games and compare them to the new. Merely a suggestion to everyone lol
Whats up with the shadows of the cars in the first pic?
