Gran Turismo 5's GT Mode; What We Know; What We May Expect.

I just want an option to buy everything - all stages, so you can mix n match. With perhaps one "are you sure?" option.

Problem is to do this in GT4 I need to spend about 20mins clicking like an idiot. Where two clicks would have done fine.

Like a shopping basket with one checkout? Makes sense to me 👍

, You don't need to buy any early stage turbo upgrades to do that, I always bought the same T4 kit to improve my factory untouched R34. This only applies to weight reduction, which is completely reasonable.

Seems like you've been losing precious credits in all cars.

You're correct, i did confuse those two, it's been a long time since playing GT4 i guess, and yes, stages for weight reduction sort of make sense, although you should perhaps be able to go for the final stage immediately by paying for the first two also, the full package all included.

Not even that. I mean one button to buy absolutely everything in the shop. It's what I do with most of my cars anyway. I need all the stage turbos and whatnot so I can enter different bhp-level competitions so when I buy a new car I always buy all the upgrades so I don't get caught out later on.

I'm sure we've discussed this before somewhere! I guess a "select all" tick box would work for buying everything in one go. Hopefully the whole menu and selection system will be streamlined to avoid the unnecessary wear and tear on the X button

Sounds like a car configurator to me, you just tick the items you want, simple and functional as that, but focused on tuning. It would save a lot of time indeed, but as PD is proud of the customization options, we can at least expect some ultra complicated and polished menus and photographs.

That sums it up perfectly and makes it sound like less of a pipe dream as most car manufacturer websites already have a car configurator. No doubt it'll be nice and shiny what ever they do

Online mode is something I'd only use when I get bored .
That said however, Arcade mode is also pretty much for when you get tired of GT mode and need to chill and do some power laps. So I doubt I'd be using Online mode much at all. Mostly GT Mode for me. I've always spent most of my time in GT Mode because I like earning money and building fast cars, testing them and tweaking them and tuning them to perfection.

Edit. About the "Are you sure?" and "Do you want to use this now?" thing I think thats a great Idea and it should stay.
Example: If I just purchased a Cr.500,000 car, I might not want to use it just yet.

I hope it contains some design mode, like forza 2 and 3 have.

customize your own paint, and also the possibility to sell your designs online
