People are acting like Kaz personally asks the manufactures to give them VGTs instead of real cars to add when it's usually the manufactures themselves who want the VGTs to be added. I would personally love to see the CLK-GTR and 911 GT1 Evo added to the game but having the Mercedes AMG Vision and the 917 Living Legend Porsche Spyder VGT for example do not take away from the resources needed to add the first two or any other highly requested cars from the community.

Damn.
 
I wouldn't say that about the Tomahawk, its the LEAST extreme of all of them given it has no boost of any kind nor the aero trickery and it honestly looks like it could be a Hypercar (Might even be faster then the "Vanwall" AND barbecue less :lol: ) . The Alpine likewise at least has far more obvious physical difference between it and the track toy based normal VGT variants. Everything else I do kinda agree feels abit lazy as someone not as aware would have to be told the GR.1 version of the Hyundai is the one with Gears or the GR.1 version of the Mazda has no AWD. And then the Bugatti has...a different windshield banner, different colored exhausts and Less power..thats it.
Yeah, it was the LM55 and the Hyundai in particular I had in mind when I was writing that, and they are the biggest culprits, you're right.

The Gr.3 ones like the Suzuki don't bother me at all, because the base VGT is a road car that gets made into a race car for Gr.3, that's how actual GT3s work so it makes sense. But that's not how prototypes work so even the more differentiated Gr.1 variants are a bit annoying to me.
 
does the AI use the engine swapped cars from my garage when i chose them vs me in the custom race? before they don't they just drive with the standard engines
 
On the topic of the new upcoming VGT, if it's the Genesis, I seriously hope it's not an EV. Thank goodness we've had some ICE-powered (albeit hybrid) VGT's lately from Suzuki, Ferrari and Italdesign.

If it's something completely else, I just hope it's the Jordan so I can live my wildest Ridge Racer dreams.

In a game with almost 500 cars, players still feel entitled to complain about a piece of content that has been proven time and time again to not take away their favorite car additions to the game.

We've been doing this for 10 years guys and the closest this has ever been to being true was GT6 and GT6 was 10 years ago.

You guys act like Kaz is just waiting for car manufacturers to design these cars and just lets the studio sit around doing nothing else.

My problem with VGTs is that they pollute all races in the game. If there was a toggle to just remove them from all races and be an optional thing I’d be fine.

I don’t want to race against cars that look like knock offs lifted from GTA V or convertibles in Gr. 3.

Simple as that.

I recommend custom grids in custom race.
 
Some LM concepts were pretty "coherent" like the fake GT1 or JGTC cars, it was way better than VGT cars, that mostly look like nothing near race cars.
Gr.1 VGTs are the wacky ones but the Gr.3 are pretty much consistent minus two open tops

Suzuki, Golf and Peugeot are the most silly ones... Oh and I don't like VW Bettle Gr.3 it is pretty silly, but can live with those.
 
Shame we will never get the Bertone VGT to me this would be a very interesting design and a real concept car.
It almost looked like a moth with three wheels.

The designer, however, did have a thing for Akira, Ridge Racer and post-cyberpunk art style though.

I had a few dozen custom races set up that I lost when I had to reinstall the game. Don't see myself going through that again.

Sophy and online races it is for the time being.

Unfortunately including made up nonsense cars.

PD need to have the ability to use more than 1 custom liverie for cutstom race, and no need to race 2-3-4 time the same car to have different liveries on it.
This would be the best option.

When selecting rival cars you have popup menu with change car/change position just add change livery and then you will meet an screen with liveries for that car added to your library.

Another thing great would be "change setup" to have different tunes for one car in grid, also great thing to balance race.

yes it would be perfect, to make some historical grids, with plenty of cars.

Yeah a bit like Assetto Corsa or Project Cars 2. Though I imagine lots of people who do custom races would be a bit annoyed since they already spent a lot of money on creating replica cars lol

For reference, these are the four things they added to known issues since 1.40. Other than these and maybe a stealth fix for the d-pad not being able to select Colorado Springs on World Circuits, don't expect anything else from this update than:
Livery Editor
 - On certain cars with a custom wing fitted, the end plates of the wing may not be painted correctly when painting the whole car.

World Circuits
 - In Quick Races and Custom Races, Performance Points (PP) which determine the selected rival cars and bonus rewards, are incorrectly calculated based off the PP value before any tuning.

Sport
 - In certain instances, the value of the Driver Rating (DR) can be seen going down even if this is not the case.

Controller
 - When the value of the 'Vibration Strength' under the 'Options' menu is set to 130 or higher, vibrations are not output correctly with the following controllers:
 ・DualSense™ Wireless Controller (PS5® version only.)
 ・Thrustmaster® T-GT / T-GT II
 ・Logitech® G G923
 ・Logitech® G PRO Racing Wheel

Please set the value to '125' or loss in order to avoid any issue while we work to resolve the issue.

I did spent xD definately would’t be annoyed. I would just sell those duplcate cars or keep them to use for different setups :)

Might be the switch to the Winder Wonderland Hub.

Bring on the Christmas music.
