Ah yes for all those races PD put out for these fine specimens of motorsport.

Just because they can, doesn’t mean they should. You can race anything but that doesn’t mean it’s the best starting point to race.

Good thing Motorsport doesn't entirely bend to such gatekeeping idiology.

Come on man. At least do a bit of research before you start yapping.

No but seriously dude, who dreams of that besides you?

These aren't even the versions you show on YouTube videos that are released in the game, just bland and boring stock versions.

I can understand that people who own them IRL are happy to drive them in GT7 but there are a lot of legendary models missing before integrating these into the game.

So please, stop your bad faith!

So you're a gatekeeper to what should and shouldn't be raced...

No, and that’s a cute take on my opinion, which is just opinion.

If you read the posts before it and I said “I embrace all these cars” just not sure how (sic) I’m platinum, 10000 hours in and 6000 online sport mode races in I’m going to enjoy this content.

So I’m not a gate keeper, just a player like you with an opinion which is what we are discussing? Opinions? Seriously mate.

And the v50T5r was a sleeper police car, it was a very cheeky homologated model.

I embrace that because it was exceptionally fast as an estate, it was a police staple, much like the scoobies and evos up north…

The rest are just expected race car variants.

A T5R was a very very respected piece of kit and fast

Don't move the goalposts just because you've been exposed to look like a bit of an idiot, take it on the chin.
If you want only the stock cars to count towards a racing history then all of a sudden you have a car list of about 3 cars and I somehow feel that'd make you even grumpier when you find out it's just a yobbos mildly clapped Fiesta, Corsa and Golf.

The exact model is in our article (and we were pretty close with our guess last week).

One and three updates back, if I recall correctly.

Thanks, but I'm aware😁...

I was just saying that these cars would probably have been more interesting in their racing version than in their civilian versions.
When will there be an update that will allow a racing version to be created from production models, as in a previous GT?

It would be really cool to bring this option back.

Yes your words show a literal meaning of a gatekeeper.

Who are you to say whether a particular car is a good option to race or use as a start point?

Sounds like a gatekeeper…

What right do you have to speak to me like that?

It seems to me that I was just stating my opinion while being respectful, unlike you!

You would do well to take inspiration from this...

Do you know what literal means? As a word and a concept?

Do you know that “i embrace these things” “but don’t like them” isn’t gate keeping?

Do you know what “opinion” means and why it’s healthy we all have them and have a space to discuss them as free and challengable ideas?

So
What’s the literal meaning of gate keeper in my posts compared to your opinion?

You don't seem to understand the reality of car racing and the veichle industry as a whole. Instead you choose to complain about what we get. We're living the era of the best racing game ever made and you're "uneducated" about not only car culture in general, but motorsport too. Don't mean it in an offensive way, but really you shouldn't complain about GT7.

Who are you to tell people what they should or shouldn’t race
Or tell people what’s the best starting point to race?

Your post implies you know and that the options presented by cars like the CRV are not worth peoples time.

Forgive him, he probably thinks that Motorsport is only about Formula 1, WEC and GT World Challenge. It goes much deeper (and better if you ask me) than that.
 
RACECAR
Its strange that folks you like think this even long after additions like the Toyota Pod from GT4, The VW Schimmwagen and Kubelwagen in GT5 or the Moon Buggy in GT6. 28 years and it still shocking people that this series isn't like other racing games?

I think this is a good point to make, but these are the wrong cars to point to. That list of cars were more the Unimogs and Himedics of their day - the one-of-a-kind eccentrics.

The SUVs are more the equivalent of GT4's Nissan Micra, or Citroën C3, or Ford Ka, or Mazda2, or Mini One, or Vauxhall Corsa - the set of cars you look out of the window and see. It's just what's on people's driveways has gotten bigger and boxier in the last 20 years.

I’m 46 years old, have competitively raced in the real world Pro Karts, Super stock 1000cc class bikes, I’ve owned quite a few “cool” cars, 205 GTis time 3, E36 M3 in Technoviolet (light weight) a base cayman and a whole bunch of other interesting cars in between.

I’ve played Gran Turismo from the first one, actually the imported version but that doesn’t matter. I’ve played as many racing games as I could for the last nigh on 30 years with GT legends and GT2 being particular stand outs when wheel hardware was starting to emerge as viable control types.

I go to at least 5/6 superbike or support level races, touring cars for all the track close to me and watch as much as practical with a family racing as I can.

For daily race B I’m 220 ish in the world.

Get back in your box because a Citroen BX mediocre model and a school run taxi don’t float my boat.

Happy for you, but if you criticize GT7, the holy bible of racing games, why are you even here?! Maybe the FM forums are what you're looking for...

It is not the holy bible of racing games. It’s the best console racing game, it offered depth that it rarely uses and is massively accessible, it is iconic and flawed at the same time. Both of these things can be true.

So go be happy with yourself and the 2008 that you will dive 2 times. Then enjoy the BX you will drive 2 times then pull out that CX30 that you haven’t driven it a few weeks….

Your forum strat is weak, come back with some stronger rationale
 
Of course, any raw comparison with the pre-Sport game rosters misses a big component of this - the dripfeed cadence. There's a lot more marketing and hype to bear when you're an update car compared to a car in at launch.

I guarantee that if a Gran Turismo 4 June 2005 Free Content Update was made up of the Nissan Be-1, the Land Rover concept that is in that game, and this Delta Group A, it would also get a lot of disappointment thrown at it.

Similarly, nobody is particularly annoyed at the Jeep being in GT7, but if that came in a 3-car update instead I bet it wouldn't be well received.
 
In my mind, and put simply, GT is a broad church, always has and always will be, you get a little bit of everything. It's not about a specific area of car culture, a particular racing series or the world's most extensive collection of cars you probably won't ever bother driving (aside from those 3 guys in Japan that run 24-hour SUV races each week)

Where GT does fail, in my humble opinion, is not giving the avid driver more opportunities to use this broad array of cars years down the line; adding more license tests, endurance races, those challenge-type events, more aesthetic and technical upgrade options, and generally having more freedom to express the love of cars.

I'm sure this is down to the fact they already got your money (and btw, I feel it was well worth the entry fee before the 1st update dropped) It has no season pass or other subscription model (weirdly, if they made more credit value options available, perhaps more people would invest but then a lot more gamers would whinge because 'microtransactions are the devil blah blah blah...)

Quite how some people feel entitled to get X or Y at every update is beyond me. I'd rather watch paint dry than drive some forsaken electric fridge from Tesla, and would be quite happy if every new car coming was a race car, new or old but it's never going to be that and that's good because otherwise I'd have to buy PCars, Dirt, WRC etc and they've all gone a bit pants in my opinion.

In the end, you bought the game, there is no ongoing fee, so yeah, you'll get what you're given.
 
Why does GTPlanet have unusual rules?
Such rules are often met with confusion and contempt by some new users. However, GTPlanet is not just another disposable “video game forum” – it is a community and a home for thousands of like-minded people which has thrived since 2001. These rules have always been in place and remind everyone to put a little more thought into what they’re contributing to the community. In turn, this creates a more pleasant and attractive place for everyone.

Seems we need a few refreshers on this particular part of the FAQ.

To me it seems like you don't have arguments against the fact that no racing game was, is and will be better than GT7.
Click to expand...
I don’t need to argue that, it doesn’t matter because I don’t personally care. I play or have played as many racing games as I can.

The flaw is trying to pick one, as they are all pretty good. Some more realistic others more accessible with a diverse car range.

The physics are wildly different between the games as well.

It seems to me you can’t definitively prove GT7 is the best? (I’d argue that GT5 was the pinnacle just for tracks and tech convergence.

I’d argue as a competitive racing game iRacing is the better platform when 3 of the top formula one racers race their… so when you talk about proving or best what you got in rebuttal?
