I searched for previous "suit threads" and I don't believe this topic has been discussed before.
Rarely do I venture into 'Arcade Mode', in any game really.
But yesterday I did try out the Arcade Mode in GT6, I went in there with a BMW and when I got out on track I was immediately perplexed.
The suit/helmet combo that my driver previously had on in Career Mode had been replaced with a sort of 'Factory Outfit'. They looked great!
I went and changed to a new make car and sure enough, the driver had that brands Factory suit & helmet on this time.
I tried four different manufacturers and the driver wore unique outfits each time;
McLaren, Suzuki, Volvo and even Plymouth.
So I am assuming every single manufacturer in the game has their own suit and helmet designed especially for them.
Why haven't these been made available in Career Mode or any other mode, except for only Arcade Mode?
Since I started playing GT6 not long ago I've felt the suits and helmets have lacked in quantity and imagination, most of them look the same with only minor variations,
and I have wondered why there haven't been more (better) options available, and yet there they are!
Hidden away all this time in Arcade Mode o_O.
I would really enjoy these suits and helmets in career mode, it would raise the experience of playing the game to another level of enjoyment.
Why can't they just put all of these into the 'Racing Gear' section?
Is it a copyright issue perhaps? Are they afraid that people will put a Ferrari driver in a McLaren car?
If so it couldn't be that hard to lock the Factory outfits to only work with the right manufacturer.
And you can already put Gardemeister in a Honda for instance, even though his suit and helmet is branded Suzuki. Or put Jeff Gordon in a Ford even though he is a career Chevrolet driver.
So if it's not copyright I wonder what else it could be..
