IMO, We'll never see a "real" city track on PS4. Too complex for the hardware.
If only I were wrong and at the end it's just my assumptions. Though, look at Tokyo Expressway: it's all about procedural modeling. All the buildings look very good, with great textures but they are all generic with almost no handmade details. Compare these tracks to R246, the difference is huge.Is it really?It does take more work because of the varied scenery but i don't think its impossible,with the GTS light engine a city track would be mesmerizing.
There are still 7 days until the end of February. There’s still some time.We’ll see, don’t know if we getting content in February, so hopefully something in March maybe.
Exciting, love watching these very entertaining!
Would like to see the Opera Circuit make a come back.
Unfortunately Chris won’t be commentating this yearThis is good news, I really like the GT Sport live events, great racing all the way, way better than McLaren's Shadow Project. Let's hope @Jimmy B will be one of the commentators alongside Tom Brooks and/or Chris McCarthy.

I'd say the reasoning for the Tokyo Expressway buildings being generic is that it doesn't represent any particular area, just Tokyo in general.If only I were wrong and at the end it's just my assumptions.

Next gen is just around the corner so I guess that Poly will build the beloved city tracks ultra detailed for PS5.
I had PM’d him, he’s all well. Just not doing it this year.Is it public why or did I just miss something? Hopefully he's OK.
