Seems legit no?

Looks like it was the one in front (without the GT logos) that actually did the record lap

Yeah I'm just wondering if I'd be able to boot into Arcade mode and see how the physics have changed. I do own the disc version.

This should work theoretically, assuming you are quick enough to cancel the game updates or unconnected from the internet to not get them at all.

It should be no different to when you download an update as soon as PS puts it live, while the server is still checking for the previous version - it'll give you a "you're on the wrong version, please update" message (or a "couldn't connect" message if you disconnect your internet) and then boot into Music Rally/Arcade only mode.

I sure hope some of these new EV's have an option for simulated gears (in game). When it comes to EV's that's my biggest issue (other than the horrendous "sound" they make). Whether you tend towards automatic or manual transmissions (in non EV's obviously), you still have gears... and you can utilize that info as a tool for cornering/braking speeds (what gear for which corner). Without the gearing, it just seemingly takes a tool away from you, and makes an already somewhat lackluster experience (due to the "sound" issue) even more "meh"... I want to like these EV's. I REALLY do. The implementation of them in-game is usually the issue. Not only is the driving experience lackluster, but there's very little to actually do with them in the single player "career". So they tend to get a drive or two and then just end up collecting dust in the garage.

Well, might be two of the last four cars for December reveal.

This is my worry. Hence the hope for at least SOMETHING to make them a bit more dynamic to drive and/or a place to use them in-game.

I very much doubt the Xiaomi and this would arrive in the same update. Aren't these two (BYD/Yangwang and Xiaomi) big rival companies? I assume these brands would prefer to be included in separate updates.

Also, this seems to be a recent partnership, unlike the Xiaomi. But I could be completely wrong in my assumptions. :lol:

I found this out totally by accident, just got a Spotify account and D/L the app on my PS4, thinking it would stop playing when I started GT7 and it just kept playing, as I mentioned, totally gobsmacked... lol

Isn't this true for all games???
 
Hey guys,

I'm still having issues in Sport mode specifically (lobbies are fine). I'll be waiting in Sport mode and will get a gray box in the bottom right saying PSN has dropped or something like that and I'll be booted. Haven't been able to enter a sport mode event since last weekends nations run. No issues with time trials.

Any recommendations on what I can try beside hard resets on ps5 and router? Internet speeds look fine.


Edit: okay and it worked just now.. Consider me puzzled.

Gran Turismo making a splash in China will increase their stocks dramatically. It also seems as though the Chinese brands are far more willing to work with PD to get their cars in the game. The potential addition of the U9 Extreme to the car list soo soon after making headlines would be extraordinary. Is this the future? Exciting times indeed.
 
All this news about Polyphony doing things in China reminded me of this from 2016.

Shanghai International Circuit Coming to GT Sport?

Preparations are being made to bring the home of the Chinese Grand Prix to the Gran Turismo franchise.

Nearly a decade later, and nothing came of it sadly. But maybe this new interest in Chinese cars & the Chinese market in general could get the ball rolling again.

I'm so looking forward to this.
 
Yes, that might be a bit too far. Unless they also let me do an EV conversion for any car.

I might be going too far on this one, who knows, but... I hope Drivetrain swaps will someday become a feature in the future of the Gran Turismo Franchise.

I might be going even further, full engine swap catalogue for all cars, Any engine for any car. :embarrassed:

I mean we’ve already had W16’s in RCF’s, Demons etc, might as well go all in on the swap insanity.

It’ll likely need some new parts to help accommodate certain cars (cars with fixed gearing for example), but imagine the possibility’s. 🧐
