1st off: How am I not taking criticism? I fully understand why people would be upset, the thing that irks me is the way that people are expressing it. I understand that everyone is different, and that negative opinions are negative opinions, but there IS a limit you know. (and that can go for good and bad opinions)

Secondly I'm in no way demanding people to be like me. You should try and understand what I'm saying first.

3rd: :lol: That was pretty funny, but you missed what I was trying to say completely...maybe I wasn't clear enough In my original post, and if so I apologize. :lol:

Oh my, it seems like I've posted the same thing twice . :lol:

Here's what I was trying to say but short and sweet:

We all run into people who annoy us becuase their stance is so differnet from our own... no one makes any of them dissapear.
 
All this fuss could be settled with one photo:

of a standard car's interior view

Can anyone find one????

And I agree!, but I don't want them to go away. Differing opinions is what makes the world move forward. I'm not saying that they shouldn't have those opinions or express them. I'm just saying that the way that some people are expressing them is a little silly. (Even though you could say that my view on the matter could be perceived that way as well.) :lol:
 
Another thing that is quite annoying is people who can't take criticism of their precious GT and love feel good/say nothing statements about how GT5 will be great because it's GT5 and how much fun it will be because it's GT5... circular logic and incesant denial of anything but the positive is not exactly an endearing trate either.



Common sense is the collection of prejudices acquired by age eighteen :)



Good for you! Not everyone is like you and it's pretty demeaning to demand they either be like you or dissapear.

You know what really sounds like a spoiled brat? "Waahhh you don't agree with me and I don't like seeing your face, get away!!! Wahhh my world has to be all pretty and roses, if you say anything bad I will put my fingers in my ears and go LALALALALLA" but you know what? No one makes those people dissapear...

This post makes me laugh.

The people in here aren't trying to claim GT5 will be perfect because it's GT5, we're just NOT being little children about something that didn't go the way we wanted, much like your final paragraph.

IN fact, your final paragraph basically says EXACTLY what the forum is being littered with right now. "OMG GT5 SUCKS it's not what I wanted I'm never going to buy it".

This pendulum swings both ways, but you're only seeing one side of it.

There is none, because standard cars doesn't have an interior.

Strittan you really are not helping your case!! sparkedglory has a very good point, all the whining is getting very tiresome, people are in this forum because they enjoy and perhaps even love the GT series and for people to start whining about issues that have neither been confirmed or denied by PD/Sony or Kaz is just childish. Yes everyone has a right to their own opinions and you can use the game however you like when you buy it (you will buy it don't try and deny that why else would you be on this forum posting every day and looking for more news) but as people have said we have had no cockpit views since the first GT and then in GT5P we got a glimpse of the cockpit views and now you are all getting on your high horses saying you have been cheated out of a cockpit view!! As for only driving the Premium cars and people saying its all about the real cars, surely this game has proven itself over the years to be the epitome of driving simulators and that is shown off by the physics engine not the looks! Granted the looks add a great deal of realism to the game but if you want pretty scenery then go and get Final Fantasy or something like that, this is a racing game, you should be looking at your braking points, apex's, turn in points and other drivers not the cockpit!!!

Here Here Sparkedglory, I'm with you even if the seemingly endless amount of thirteen year old brats aren't! I love this racing series and couldn't really care less about a cockpit camera, If you have a steering wheel and either the bonnet cam or a roof/windscreen cam then that is fine, the cockpit although more real draws your attention away from the racing.

If you care more about the looks of the cockpit than the physics engine and gameplay got and get a 360 and play Forza, I hear their fanboys love the graphics on that, cough cough! The mods really need to start getting heavy on the childishness of some of the posters on here!!

And if that's true for some, why is it so hard to accept?

Is it necessary to open a new thread just to question people's opinions?

Unfortunately as of yet there are none as PD quite rightly want to show off the best features to the press! why would they show low res interiors of cars if they can show purely premiums... We will get a definitive answer on this either when the game is released or at TGS/Gamescom... Unfortunately we have no proff either way just missed translations and question avoidance...

When that person drops their opinion in EVERY thread on the first page, and then continues to say it, even going as far as to quote other people and tell them they're stupid for liking it, then yes it's necessary to make a containment thread.

If you read my recent posts again, you will realize that I'm very excited about GT5, and that I can't wait for it to be released. The only thing I'm not excited about is the standard cars. And as a result I sound like a ignorant spoiled brat.

Hey I did say if the tread was unnecessary then the mods could delete it. But right now Things aren't so bad, plenty of discussion going on. 👍

Where did I say someone was stupid for liking the standard cars? I'm sorry if I did, because yes, that is kinda childish.

And as far as I know, I can drop my opinion how often I want, as long as it's on topic.

Ummmm...

First off, there are many people saying that they refuse to use the standard cars because of the "possible" lack of a cockpit view, and the fact that they're upscaled GT4 models. And to that I say shame on you

I understand that everyone is different, and that negative opinions are negative opinions, but there IS a limit you know.

I'm saying that The way you're expressing that opinion sounds very childish/bratty. And frankly, it's quite annoying.

You are backing off on the tenacity with which you make your claims I see...

I could care less if they're standard or premium. GT5 is GT5 and I for one will enjoy this game to the fullest when it is released.

That's actually quite a tame one... looking back in the forums there have been plenty of circular arguments about how GT will be great because GT and KY are great and all the previous GTs were great and when something isn't in GT it's ok because it will still be great beacuse it's GT.

IN fact, your final paragraph basically says EXACTLY what the forum is being littered with right now. "OMG GT5 SUCKS it's not what I wanted I'm never going to buy it".

As I said, we all run into people who differ from us, that runs both sides, optomists and pessimists a like. However right now I would argue a lot of the unhappiness is neither and it's realists... who in this case are realizing something fairly unpleasant - especially after the optimists spent so long building GT5 up.

At least you realize what you sound like :sly: there are many on here that don't seem to even realize this fact and that is what is getting tiresome!

I don't think I'm sounding like one, but you obviously think so.

Realize what? That they sound like ignorant spoiled brats? Why would they? They don't need to either. They can deliver their opinions however they want, as long as it follows the AUP.

Hey you know that special order fillet minion you waited a month for the restaraunt to get in and then waited 5 hours for the chef to cook, the whole time the restaraunt staff showed you beautiful pictures of steaks and assured you how awesome it was gonna be? Yeah, turns out we goofed, it's a sirlon... and the chef is sick so we tossed it in the microwave.

WHAT ARE YOU SO MAD ABOUT!!! YOU ARE SUCH AN IGNORANT SPOILED BRAT!

I think this is just a little bit different. :sly:
 
Disappointed about no cockpits on standard cars, but I had a feeling we weren't getting any (even though many on this forum couldn't accept it). Hopefully they will release Cockpits through DLC or Updates. Still excited for the game though!

Yes, we still have hope guys. :)
 
Strittan did you write your previous post under hypnosis or something!!! I quoted you saying that you realized you sounded like a spoiled brat and now you backtrack!!! You are sounding younger and younger by the minute!!! I think you are even approaching a negative age!! GROW UP!

👍

You see? This is the kind of thing we need! Away with the negativity.
 
I think it is a general consensus that we are all still looking forward to the game cockpits or not! It is going to be epic no matter what people are saying on here they will go out and buy it and they will then more than likely drive standard and premium cars, probably due to having to purchase them to complete certain licenses and challenges!!

Away with the realists!

And away with the fact that almost no one gives out free DLC anymore... so onward with the optimistic option that maybe despite KY's previous statements about not relying on DLC we will get it and it will be free so we won't end up paying for what should have been in a 6 year development cycle game, a year after it comes out.

This is what I am talking about when I say we got ourselves here by constantly shoveling critical thinking under the carpet and insisting on putting our hopes on any possible savior... what happens when you stop being a realist is when reality hits it's even less pleasant than if you at least perceived it coming.
 
That is NOT AND I REPEAT NOT COMMON SENSE! ITS TOTALLY THE OPPOSITE! at this point in time. i think other games have a set a standard, a minor one perhaps, but a valid one of which is have a COMPLETE PRODUCT! dont bite off more than you can chew!!!!

Why? I think it's a perfect comparison. People have waited 5 years for this game, and only a few months before release it turns out to be something completely different from what they expected, in a bad way. Of course they must be allowed to be mad about it!

You certainly are pessimistic. :lol: And I was referring to the fact that he was turning a negative situation positive. Not the mention of DLC. :)

Really? Ok.

Me and DLC have kind of a history :) I saw it for the money grab it was going to be a long time ago and I have watched as people constantly deny it and say how awesomme it's going to be for the gaming community and how we won't get screwed by it and guess what... now we are.... but that's another story....

But that kind of optimism is exactly what I am talking about in general. So many in the community don't like to face an unpleasant possibility and feel that if there is ANY way it could work out, we must grasp onto that and ignore the likely reality...

I know a person like this in real life who is always saying "can't you just be positive?" I mean you could be hit by a car and bleeding out the ears and she would be saying "oh can't you just be positive?"

I have no problem wtih being positive, but whe it severely impares being realisitc... well that is just asking for trouble.

For exampe - see where we are right now :)

I have been saying for months (maybe over a year) that this is what we were going to get... if you want to (which I can't fathom why you would) you can go back and see page long back and forth between me and other members where I keep logically pointing out why this is where we were headed and they wouldn't have it...

I was a troll, I was negative, I was always picking the wrong details and I didn't make sense.

Well guess what? Here we are...

And you know what? A large part of the reason many of the members are so down right now is because they hinged their hopes on being optimistic instead of realistic :)
 
You also need to remember that PD probably has big DLC plans for this games which probably means more premium cars!
