Edgy? I’m a complete dork, but I still think the post I quoted was hilarious.

Edgy? I’m a complete dork, but I still think the post I quoted was hilarious.
GT6 came out 12 years ago. St Croix is like half the size of the nurburgring. To say PD can build that but can't update Apricot Hill is exactly why I didn't get a PS5Yeah, that kart's an exception to a lot of things, but at least you can't do an oil change on it these days...
The fact that such legacy tracks that have returned have been reworked is in part a clue as to why more haven't returned - and the city tracks especially. In essence, they were designed for six cars, not 20, and at 1080p. They all need redeveloping from scratch (occupying the track team's time), they need to be re-scaled, the pit lanes need to be resized to accommodate the larger grids (not that it's strictly needed with the teleportation going on), and they need real locations captured for use as background terrain:
If they're not good enough reasons for you, then there's little else to add to the conversation really. I too would rather have a good-enough Apricot Hill than a gap where it isn't, but that's not how PD do.
I don't understand what you're saying here. My argument is why waste time on a Panda when there's tracks that have seemingly taken 12 years to rebuild?
for everyone’s sanity, please look up how licensing works. There’s a search function on this forum that will pull up discussions on it.
I just don’t think you get how Polyphony do in game assets. It’s pretty unique. The detail they go to is incredible and some would say completely unnecessary.
Who said that they can't?
Then I have a question: how is it possible that in WTC700 a behicle which entered after me in the pits with the same fuel remaining is in front of me after the pit due to its refuelling taking less time? I didn't record the replay at the time because I thought it was simply due to different sizes of the tank, but if they are all the same...
Taking on less fuel (the AI no longer fill up to maximum every time), not taking tyres, hitting pit entry far faster than you, the indeterminate fudge factor applied which varies pit lane time by a couple of tenths... you name it. Not including inattentiveness, as I assume you aren't, but we have had a lot of people insisting AI cars are somehow 30 seconds faster through the pits than them due to not really paying attention to what's actually happening.
Yes, my previous post was incomplete. I didn't consider tyres because what I remember seeing was that their liter counter started going up after mine started, was below mine and reached 100 earlier. I think (not sure) that my car was the MkIV Ford GT while the other was a Gr 4 from WTC700 at Le Mans.
Well it's not in Gt7...
Do you realize you're not actually saying anything? "go look up how licensing works". No I'll look at the games with newer cars and play those games. I don't need to "educate" myself on why PD can't keep up with any other racing games. And again, what do I owe my credentials to some bitter GT player?
What this sounds like is PD backed itself into a graphical hole it can't get out of. 9 months to scan ONE car seems horribly inefficient. Again iRacing had the BMW GTP scanned and in-game before it ran a real race. Once the allure of graphics wears off there's not much for GT to stand on compared to other racing games.
That doesn't mean that PD can't do it, as you seem to think. It only means that PD hasn't done it.
PD has done that several times over the years - including the GR Yaris most recently, which was available in GT Sport before even journalists had driven one.
The fact that PD hasn't done it is 100% the problem, and that's the exact sentiment that sent me to PC. I'm not going to keep buying consoles hoping to get content back that PD chose to remove.
Two posts ago the problem was that PD can't do it:
I don't think that, with the knowledge provided in the links and quotes I gave you, it's that hard to see why PD hasn't brought back all these older tracks, or why the ones that have come back have seen some changes, and why there have instead been new fictional courses since GT Sport.
PD chose to remove or the licensing agreement expired so that HAD to remove it.
I’ve said plenty, it’s not my fault you’re struggling to grasp concepts
Ok but that’s just throwing a tantrum because you said something incorrect
Then don’t make vague statements like you have such as “the car exists, just go scan it” because that clearly means you don’t know what you’re talking about
Didnt say you had to, it’s clear that your credibility isn’t good enough with how wrong you are.
Do you know when iRacing got the license and information for it? Because as per your style you’re making statements with no evidence to back it up. Which is actually the issue with you as a poster.
You’ve forgotten ease of access to people to play a racing game on consoles
We’re not defending it. We just understand (various and multiple reasons) why x y z isn’t in the game
The price of Playstation plus has doubled in the 3 years I've been on iRacing.
Not in my country - it had a price rise once in what 5 years by 20%. Certainly not 200% in the last 3 years
They're entirely different things. One is a capability and not in someone's control and the other is a desire.
No, I'm not. I asked you "who said they can't" when you claimed that this was said.
You might be, but I'm not. I'm explaining why, giving evidence and reasons, and correcting misconceptions - which you're promulgating.
I literally said why focus on a Panda when there's original tracks to be added back. Who's thowing the tantrum here? I don't own this game and have made it very clear why. But suddenly I don't have credibility to talk about a racing game
. This community in a nutshell.
You literally are because a picture from PD studios that show a Fiat panda got scanned, no other indication of any other car or a track shown which you then suggested they can't
Go figure with your attitude(over 100 posts in GT7 threads without owning the game! what a joke!)
Which is also an odd reason even pointed out by others
Yeah because you still don't want to understand how cars and tracks are added to a game despite 3 people telling you, you ignoring it and then saying you're too lazy to use a search functionBut suddenly I don't have credibility to talk about a racing game
yeah pointing out you're wrong when you're vague on purpose while trying to make yourself seem better than others is a weird take
If you don't own this game, why TF are you here? Go enjoy your other games that are "so much better" and stop trying to ruin other people's experiences with your own issues. Seriously, grow up.
I'm advocating for GT to be a better game. Nowhere did I say that anything was better, you made that up. Who needs to grow up here.
Clearly nobody is allowed to say this game should be better. Yall get too triggered.
This is your 12th post in a thread about a FIAT Panda being spotted in modelling software, comprising 10% of the entire thread.
