Ah, the silly persuasion that big budgets are actually infinite.
Having a big budget doesn't mean that you don't have to prioritize on how to spend it, and that you can splurge however it strikes your fancy.
Again, the budget and 6 year development time of GT5 was plenty to manage the task at hand, had Kaz not been stupid with his promise of "1000 cars".
Cost AND time are issue. Lifting a car means that the car has to be transported to an equipped facility, and it's not exactly something that can be done and undone in five minutes between safety standards.
or maybe you think you can get decent photos (with the necessary lighting conditions) of the underside of a car just by using a car jack?
Transport to an equiped facility?
Where do youthink you transport the cars to be used for photoessays and sound recordning?
The"secret equipped facility" is the same service department facility that provides the dyno they run the car on the get the sound recodings. I see you from Italy - perhap sin Italy full service lifts ar every scarce and onl yprestn in "specially equiped facilites" but in the United States suvh "special facilites" are literally a dime a dozen.
Perhaps PD should have done what Turn 10 did and taken the cars to facilities with dynos and lifts. I see you are classic GT Fanboieey material with your fanatical blind defense of PD,
With 6 years and the budget PD had at its displosal acces to the cars and lifting them with a 4 post lift was a no-brainer.
We are simply exposing PD's shortcuts here.
Nice, do you have any evidence of that, or you're talking out of the wrong orifice?
No need to answer by the way, it was a sarcastic question
Lack of decent photo textures is all the evidence you need to know that they didnt have access to most o fthe cars and simply imported the GT3 and GT4 assets.
Oh really? Interesting that they didn't notice that basically all their RWD cars behave in a radically different way as opposed at the real ones, down to the most basic level.
Must have driven them veeery carefully.
It must be very difficult bein gsuch a fan boy of Sony's. You miss out on so much. I have had a blast with Forza1,2 and 3 and GT1,2,3,4 and now 5. But understand both are wannabe simulaiotns but are just console games - and I base my opinion o fthi son comparing real car on-track experience to ingame "feel. What are you using as a yardstick?
And? Their projects have always been great, but they have always had a quite limited scope as well. You're comparing apple to oranges, at best.
And whose problem is that if PD has screwed up priorities and never scopes their projects properly?
Of course it's been proven in this thread that the underside of the car is just an intentional easter egg, so your baseless ranting is quite moot.
GT5 is quite a fantastic game, proof of that is that haters have to resort to some quite silly nitpicking in order to try and downplay it.
Nice, do you have any evidence of that, or you're talking out of the wrong orifice?
And thi sis not a sarcastic question.
