I was considering making a thread like this myself, so i have a couple ideas...
Photo Mode/Course Maker/Replay Theater
- Add a point to point option to Course Maker
- Add a forwad/reverse option to Course Maker
- Add a filter option to replays. This would allow us to watch replays in the camera filters such as Sepia & Monochrome. The recent glitch really shows how cool this could be.
- The option to use standard car's in Photo Mode. Even if we can't get to close or use our avatar, it would be great to show off their much improved looks
- Add the photo locations from the opening menu to photo travel mode.
Online
- Add a "time to race start" box in the top of the Driving Option & Setting screens online. When in either of these windows with the current system, you cannot see the warning and may miss the start of the race
- Allow us to use the new "Special tickets" in the settings menu of online lounges
- Let us sort the open lobbies with the GT500/NASCAR/Modern rally car etc. filters
- Full time leaderboards. Even if we can only use GT5: Prologue cars and tracks, it would be a massive addition
- Make an option for the "System Cache" to automatically clear each time you start the game
- Have an option to turn off the online chat function censor. On the most part, the immature people use dots and slashes to get around it and those who simply want to talk about there car's "Engine" or race at "Tsukuba" get punished.
- Change the option for Tyre wear to High/Low/Off for online racing
Tuning/Customisation
- Make the whole premium wheel selection available to all cars
- Add the option to purchase carbon fibre hoods for standard cars. Even if they aren't shown cosmetically, the extra 5kg of weight reduction may come in handy
- Fix the suspension tuning glitch
- Make "Super Soft" and "Super Hard" Tyres availble for use
Options
- Add an audio adjuster to the pause menu. Simply so we can tweak the sound to our liking.
- In the garage search function, add a "Jump to PP/BHP/KG" slider.
- Seeing as youtube upload from in-game is seemingly impossible, perhaps having a share replay function (much like we have for photos & tracks) would be the way to go.
- Add the "Hardware" & "Steering Controllers" options menu's available under "My home settings" to the pre race menu. It would be a great time saver for those trying to set up 3D/PSEYE, not to mention the control tweaking
- Under the "Units & Languages" menu, let us not only choose the distance measurement, but also the torque, power and weight seperately.
- Allow the "Tyre/Fuel depletion" gauge to be turned off seperately from the Speedometer & Rev counter on the HUD
Gameplay
- Add an option like GT4's where you could choose to "Reset race record" to re-obtain a prize car. With the selling limit's it wouldn't be exploited for money, but would be a great way for people to collect colours/tune levels they like for each model
- Add the Veyron, FGT, a truck & a Pre 1979 Japanese car to a permanent slot in the UCD.
- Allow us to delete DLC cars from the garage. Though it was a good move when we could only have one of each, now that they're re-purchaseable there is no need for the safety any more
- Increase the credit cap, even if it's only to 25 million.
- Perhaps increase the level cap, add an R license and an "Ultimate" A-Spec/B-spec series. This would give us who have finished the game a new reason to play
I love GT5 and appreciate everything PD has done thus far, in my oppinion they do not need to update the game any further. But these additions, while small, would help improve the game quite a lot.
sorry I had to say that.
