DLC request, create own championships!!!

[sololosthero]

They should make a DLC where you can create your championships and have the ability to select from a whole range of perameters, like: courses, laps, winning money and even what car you win the end.
Lets contact GT and tell them this is want we want, instead of them just devoloping what ever the hell they like, fans like us need to stand together and let our voice be heard, bcos at the end of the day we are ones paying the money to buy the game and playing it.

that is cool, i would love that for online racing

 

[Taunto_Svt]

I agree with this, and the idea of Online Team Racing.

So there will be a million Indy championships, 1 lap long against Midgets and you win 1,000,000cr and 5,000,000xp and the X2010.

However, a competition where people can enter there idea's for new championships/events would be great. We need more of the events from old, single manufacturer and model races, drivetrain, country of origin etc.

Was it GT4 or 3 that had races in Car Dealers with pretty strict restriction? It was great, very challenging.

not eveyone will cheat!

the ability to select all the cars to race against and to add your own courses to a championship, would be great fun, like a 8 evo's vs 8 wrx's championship with all the same horse power would be fun, by using your imgination the possibilites are endless.

mybe some set peramertes that are locked, like: 10 races, 10 laps, 100,000 win a race, 500,000 a championship and a list of set cars to win about 500.

well this is just a thought, probabaly wont happen, but if it did it would keep be playing to the next GT game comes out, bcos i feel like quitting lately.

No, not everyone, but 95% will!

It would be good if you could only race against the same cars as you are driving, or if you choose to race a touring car for example, it has to be standard, no power upgrades and you race against the other 10 or so touring cars.

I think being able to create your own race then sharing it online for others to play would be a good idea and keep people coming back for a bit longer.

Yes, there will always be someone who will try and abuse or exploit the situation to gain an advantage, once they have done it, others will follow and so on.

If the rewards (money and points) are made too easy and more profitable than set races in A spec, people will concentrate on this and not the set races in A spec. If the rewards are too low people will not use this feature and the development time to implement this could have been spent on other areas of the game.

If you are making a race and deciding upon the prizes, it will be difficult to implement a fair reward system based on the huge number of different varables that can apply to a race, also you would need to make sure the rewards are in line with similiar A spec races, and that wouldn't be easy.

Currently online you can choose the track, car, laps, grip level, tyres, power, weight and use of driving aids (and in some instances, the weather too.

Yes, I do agree however, there are certian factors you can't choose, like FF cars only or Japanese cars pre 1990 etc (and these would be a good, and welcome addition to the restrictions you can choose from) but there is alot of scope already.

Generally, it isn't a totally bad idea, but when you look at the time it has taken to make and release GT5 and then look at the problems and issues people have with it, I just think it wouldn't work. If polyphony release a game with as many issues as GT5 then trying to implement something like this would just go horribly wrong.

 

[Ritterkreuz]

Cheating potential aside, I love the idea. Perhaps prize/experience amounts could be set using a formula based on distance, track difficulty, etc. In other words the game does that part so people couldn't cheat as easily.

 

[skylinefx]

It's a good idea, but drastically improving single player gameplay after the game is released is a bad idea... This isn't an online game that people would be playing for years and years.

 

[PedanticNerd]

Great idea, love it

I made a thread with this kind of an idea a while ago, but to little support

It's gonna be hard for PD to implement actual events, since the career mode in GT5 is complete in itself. It's small, but difficult to add to. Event/championship maker is the logical idea, then, in order to extend the career and playability.

As to keeping the rewards fair, prize cars are out of the question but we should leave it to the system itself to calculate exp and credits on the same parameters as the career events. Rewards need to be added for this to work, but if it's not done fairly the chance of a championship creator being added are slim

I absolutely love this idea, though, and I hope PD does too

 

[sololosthero]

why wont GT listen to want the fans want??? how can our voices be herd??? GT should make a site where you can tell them things and give feedback for the next GT game... who better to ask then us! bcos we are devoting our time to play and we are the best people to judge it. LONG LIVE USERS! just saw TRON last night, hehehehehehehe

Almost exactly what I was thinking, but maybe if you set the cars, tracks and AI yourself, the gold and XP earned will be based on that.

I agree with the idea of a general competition to create a new championship (or set of them). The course maker is there. Personally, I would prefer restrictions on cars and equipment. In my opinion, not that I'd prefer it, the easiest way to prevent cheating would be by giving all the competition the same kit, making it an endurance-type race, and disabling the pause function. No car should be capable of lapping the field in half the duration of the race. I'd say that an hour would be a good time. I think that everyone who completes X number of laps would get the same xp credit; but, the winner, etc., would get decreasing amounts of prize money.

 

[bobrieno]

Here's a thought:

First off, set the winnings to be credits OR a car, not both.

If credits, one lap is 1,000
Every lap afterwards is 2,000 more. So for a 10 lap race, 11,000 credits.
This can vary with the types of cars you race against. If you are racing against cars less powerful than you, there's a multiplier that fractions the ammount of credits you win. So if its a one lap race, you are in an LM car against midgets, you win 100 credits instead of 1,000. If you are in an LM car and you happen to beat FGTs over the one lap, you get 10,000 credits. Something like that.

What do you guys think of that?

It would get everybody trying to fine tune their cars a LOT more....and keep the game interesting.

 

[sololosthero]

If this happen I would play GT5 until GT6 came out. they can make a class system so what ever car you go the other AI cars match it. Also isnt the whole idea of the game collecting more cars, you should be allowed to pick whatever car you want to win at the end of championship. so you can do 1000 championship and collect all the cars.
I saw in the trophy section a collect all 1000 car trophy, tell how many people are going to achieve that.

 

[blue devil]

I think something along the lines of the single player in GTPSP. Pick your track, car, and number of laps. With more laps you get more exp and credits. Maybe have this available after you finish a spec or something.

yeah I agree, u should have to reach some sort of level in the game to unlock it, also with transfer your cars from the psp was a complete waste of time, if i had known that the cars could only be used in arcade mode i would have never brought that game.
