Apparently the McLarenVGT at Suzuka has its place right in the wall after 130R then :D
I think my headset is there too lol

Had to lift way before on the time trial.

Btw, what a car.... And now that very same VGT is a real car.
 
Something like that yes. It was between 2 cars, 500k, 1M, and 30k or a little more.
Are you saying those were the options in the spinner? Sometimes it'll show you lower options in a 5* or 6* but you can never spin them.
 
I’ve had the lower amounts and thought there’s no way they’d drop the spot light on one of them… and then I get a part! :rolleyes:

They were the options yes. I had only two 6* in my 35 saved tickets to open today, one of them being a "parts only" ticket from the Weekly Challenges I guess.
 
A nice reward for owning 3 lovely Ferraris

Is the Afeela the first car in the franchise to ever include ambient lighting? It looks so good on night time

Also the way that the driver holds the yoke looks so funny to me :lol:
 
I don't know what's more galling, the fact that I haven't had a Ferrari invitation in nearly 1000 hours of play time or the fact that the extra menu book claims the La Ferrari is "on sale" in Brand Central. WELL IT ISN'T ON SALE IS IT, YOU SMELLY BUMS. Pardon my French.
 
VGT is by far the worst thing that’s happened to this series. Sorry, just had to get that off my chest.
I can't say it's made the game any better. Nothing would change if they were removed right now.

Reading into things with the tinfoil hat.
"Škoda's first Vision Gran Turismo"?
Maybe they'll give it the Suzuki treatment and make a Gr.? version, with a different drivetrain.
Oh please no, one is enough.

Pretty sure it's directly reffering to the original Vision GT concept they had prior to this one.
 
Does the bug only work when there are partial settings allowed or you can do it even if its all locked?

edit: - yea it works even with locked settings , yea not good :(

Does that apply to all events? Can I finally win that ****ing Fuji race?
I can recommend the Pikes Peak Quattro if you're struggling. Also, certain opponents are much harder to beat, the car lineup is variable on this one so it's worth closing and reopening the race until some of the more troublesome cars aren't on the grid.
 
I tried the WC event at Alsace using the AFEELA...

I wonder if it's called AFEELA in the same way that A is added to 'theist' to make 'Atheist', implying 'non' as in this is a non-feeling car? Driving it is a thoroughly uninspiring and boring experience - it's like a night out with me. The AFEELA is never likely to make it into anyone's top 10 favourite cars, and even though it's FREE in GT7, having more than one seems like a waste of controller battery power to take more than one. It's also a remarkably unattractive vehicle, so much so that I wouldn't be surprised if Kevin Bloody Wilson wrote a song about it... if he hasn't done so already.

I can agree with you in that it is not a nice looking car. I think a lot of EVs look unpretty so I maybe it bit biased.
 
I heard you guys don't like VGTs so here's my 6* ticket from the Ferrari Menu:

And my daily ticket:

I think PD is trying to tell me something...
I didn't think Ferrari made VGT cars. Wow, I must be lost somewhere. Incredible ticket though and what you won. I got a Porsche VGT on a 5-star ticket a few weeks ago.

I won’t even park it in my garage for free. Blech.

I think you're lost in early 2022, as Ferrari revealed it at the GT World Finals in Monaco that year. I was, as usual, sitting right next to it at the time...


It was also delivered to viewers, for free, two weeks later:

 
For as much as the Afeela doesn't play towards everyone's tastes, it's up to PD to make a set of events catered to it (and indeed every class and sub group of car)

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't believe there are any 'All EV' events right? Outside of the Special Events for the Tesla Model 3 which went away after a week.

Even if it's a series of one make races, (or whisper it, championships) or events where you had to consider range and employ lift and coast in order to make it, there's so much you can do with GT7 as a platform.

You spend all this time, money and resources on beautifully modelling cars and then what feels like an afterthought for how they might be used in game.

Of course it doesn't prevent from you using them in other events against ICE powered cars, but in many ways, we shouldn't have to make our own fun with a game, just because they can't be bothered to make compelling reasons to include cars like this.
 
Some more files are being released from the Imnsomniac data breach.
In an Excel table with data on games downloads on the PSN (does not include data on physical sales), as of June 2023 GT7 was the 9th SONY game that had generated the most revenue with about 142 million dollars and 2.19 millions of downloads.
GT Sport was in 11th position with 102 million dollars and 4.32 million downloads (many downloads were made at bargain prices and that is why the data disparity exists).
GT7 is placed above the PS4 versions of the Last of Us and Uncharted 4.
