PD went through the effort of making an inaccessible kart track within High Speed Ring.

Honda 2&4 costs 1m credits, making it 10x more expensive than it was in GTS.

Northern Isle Infield layouts mysteriously erased from existence.

Meeting Place mentioned

The most boring selection of EV/Hybrid road cars possible.

The furtive Infiniti, so easily forgotten.

Since when have EV's been anything but boring?
 
Well, I thought this would have long ago been continued, when GT7 debuted.

After someone made a thread(and it got deleted) about asking if people were complaining about this game, it was long overdue. I'll agree, many threads go from a simple question or opinion and turn into the thread title.

Do memes count as whining and/or crying?
 
I remember this thread from the gt5 days or was it gts? either way I don't have any whining just alot of crying seeing the c8r in that other game but nowhere to be found in gt7.:(
 
I don't know where else to put this comment (and leaving it in the main discussion thread feels a little too negative for my liking), but does anyone else hate it that some cars have a "track-focused" center display yet others have a blank page?

To prove my point :sly: take the current N offerings from Hyundai: The Ioniq 5 and Elantra

The Ionic 5 has it's center display showcasing, "N mode," displaying various inputs like a lap timer and accelerator/brake pedal position. It doesn't say a whole lot, but it makes the middle screen, you know, not empty.

Example:

Meanwhile, the Elantra N center display is just empty :indiff:

When, in reality, it should look like this (pulled from Hyundai's N Menu Youtube video)

Is it too much to ask that PD include these screen? And it's not even just on the Elantra; how come there are so many cars in the game that have a blank center display? This is especially frustrating as a VR user because that screen is (literally) in front of our faces.

On some cars, yes, it makes sense; the NC1 NSX, for example, just has it's center display say "NSX" because the track mode settings are integrated into the gauge cluster. Yet, on every other Honda with a screen, it is straight up turned off/blank.

Even the R34s and R35s don't have their screens! Like, the R35, with the Polyphony Digital-developed multi-function display, doesn't have a working screen (to be entirely fair to PD, I believe the R35s in game use a Nissan-developed MFD as opposed to the PD one. Makes me wonder why we don't have a pre-2015 GT-R yet).

Is it a case of favoritism? I mean, the electric cars seem to (mostly) have complete/functional center displays. The Xiaomi and Polestar both have them, yet none of Toyota's offerings do.

Anyways, this is such a nitpick that lies mainly with VR users since the problem is always there, right in front of us. Flat-screen users may never notice/care for it since they're (generally) not playing with the interior view, so is it something that matters?

I just wish PD could get the boost gauge display correct for many turbocharged engines. So many are comically incorrect. Such an easy fix too. I mean even on (relatively) recently added cars like the 992 Turbo S...boost gauge WAY off. To clarify I'm talking about the overlay graphic, as many vehicles' instrumentation doesn't even show a boost gauge these days (BOOOO).

Yeah out of all the missing interior displays, the GT-Rs are definitely the most egregious. The development studio that literally made the damn thing doesn’t want it in their game for some reason.

It’s crazy because GT7 is such a massive leap compared to GT5/6 in terms of detail… yet the earlier games have them but the newer ones don’t?

I hope it’s not some dumb bull that PD just didn’t make the screen a high enough resolution back in the day so it wouldn’t look good on modern consoles or something lol.

It really does make the interior of some cars feel lifeless compared to the older games. I want to see the cool displays do cool thingies too but they don’t.
