I use the current pulse 3D headphones and they are wonderful… however I’m definitely getting the earbuds.. it gets extremely hot with my headphones and PSVR2.
 
Guess this is the first of the month update?
What do you mean ‘first of the month’? It’s due on the 2nd (at least in my time zone), or are you assuming we are getting 2 updates in Nov?

No just referring to his comments of updates being in the beginning of the month
 
I hope i'm wrong.
But i really feel we are going to get disappointed once again with update 1.40.

It's going to be just the 7 cars, 1 small new track and the standard 3-4 events with 3-5 laps with minimum payouts.
Mark my words.
Few updates maybe regarding Sport Mode.

And if we are lucky maybe a few temporarily events that only payout once.

Content wise, GT7 is the worst GT game we ever had.

Also, if they don't replace Le Mans, Tokyo and Sardegna with new higher payout races... They are really trolling us.
 
Can't we all just be patient? An update is coming in 2 days. It has 7 cars, it may or may not have anything else. Why get yourself worked up into a frenzy of unrealistic expectations? Equally, why plunge yourself into preemptive disappointment? Let:s just wait and judge the update when we know what is included, it really isn't that hard.

We all know this game needs a boost in content. Expectations are really high, especially those still playing this game. I'll wait till the update arrives, i'm just expressing my feelings pre update.
 
7 car is already pretty good, the rest are just a bonus considering PD
7 new cars are nice, yeah, but it doesn't solve any of the problems a lot of players have with the game.
As somebody wrote here somewhere recently: What are you going to do with those cars? Grind the same (boring) races that you already did hundreds of times?

The game lacks rational single player content. I'm only playing for a few weeks now but even I can see this.

Just my 2 cents

But who knows, maybe we will all get surprised on Friday. Let's hope for the best!

You are overexaggerating. Sure, content wise is not the best GT (at least for now as of 31 October, 2023 but we'll see what future update hold for us) but it is not the worst either! GT1 and GT2 had less singleplayer content than GT7, let alone the absence of any online and extra modes that GT7 do have. GT7 take more time to full completion than GT2 and several times more than GT1. It is actually getting closer to GT6/GT Sport in terms of longevity and I think it has the potential to reach or even surpass those and maybe go toe toe against GT3! But unfortunately it will never gonna have the amount of content that GT4 and GT5 had, tho.

Completely agree. Remind me of the update where the valkyrie was introduced. Such an amazing machine, no new races worth using it.
The car lined up for this update is great (I cannot wait to put digital hands on the lfa and 190e) but we really need meaningful events, with payouts equivelant to the big four. Either by new events or by increase in payout to already existing ones.

I can't wait for tommorow's trailer! I'm really hyped about this update 🔥🔥🔥

I would even go further and would like to see payout for (offline) time trials also. I just prefer those over races and since the races are no challenge anyway, I'd say just let the players do in game whatever they prefer. I played The Crew 2 before and grinding was a lot more fun there 'cause you could do something different every day. And while payout wasn't exactly the same everywhere it was close enough at least.

Like ride 4 I remember I bought every bike just by doing free run laps since I never got into the career mode of that game.

Just a few laps of free run would pay you a good amount of credits and the more laps you did the more credits you got.👍

Yes, that's a good example also! I only played Ride 3 but those laps paid really well!

Just like any other gt fanboi, I too have high expectations and hopes for this game to become the greatest racing game ever, there are so many content and features that are still missing, and that I really wish are included... For decades already I am feeling this way...

It's truly frustrating, especially how the game is being improved at drip-drop paint-drying torture-killing pace.

And yet I keep on coming back to this game.... Due to laziness, or else

So how can one ever be happy ?


Well for one:
there are actually a lot of things to do with this game, if you are a completionist like myself.

Two: don't sweat the future, just be grateful for what you have.. you have no control over the God that is Kaz, you just have to accept the good, unfortunately along with the bad ...

Such is life ...

Being ungrateful is just going to make you more miserable.
Life is too short to be unhappy all the time. ..

Just hope for the best... Looking forward to 1.40.

Agreed. However, I'm optimistic that many of the good things we want in the game are gonna come with this or other future updates. Not all, sure, but if half of what we want comes that would be EXTREMELY good.

I think many people feel exact the same way like me.
I stepped in the GT franchise with GT3, so i cannot speak for GT7 vs GT1/2.

Like @CTznOfTime says: this game can truly be soooo much more! For either the online fans of the game but especially the singleplayer they could please alot of people!

I agree, but we must be patient and give them time. Tommorow and Thursday will tell us a lot about the future of the game since I see this update as decisive for the faith of this game.

So how do you see the future for GT7 then?
 
I think some see too much in this update. Yes it's big, may be bigger than ever but it won't change the roots of the game. A new career mode will be called GT8, if they wanted to give us a nice variety of events, we would already have it.
I'm optimistic myself too, I'm looking forward to seeing some permanent Sophy stuff since it's now known for 8-9 months that it works.
The initial design still will be meh but Sophy could give some replayability to the events where it's implemented.

Not gonna lie, it won't surely revolutionarize the game or make it perfect and flawless.. But I'm kinda confident that it will improve the game significantly especially in terms of content, tracks and new modes (see Sophy, B-Spec e.) more an evolution than a revolution but I could always be wrong. Tommorow we will know! I'm kinda anxious about it.
 
This could be an interesting one, with the Nissan NISMO 400R coming to the game, where it will likely be sold in Hagerty as the first legendary professionally tuned car in the game.

The reason for this is because only 44 examples were made, and adjusted for inflation, it would sell for $2.2 million.
