Do you want more detailed and realistic physics on the next GT

Well Gran Turismo hasn’t always been much of a sim so GT7 has been a big step forward.

It’s odd we can’t adjust suspension not only front and back but including left and right. Tire pressures? Not even sure that’ll be in GT8.

It’s a tight rope trying to balance fun with sim.

I think they’re doing good, they just have to get rid of some of the goofy stuff that’s in the game. Focus on racing, maybe lean a little more into setting cars up in the future, less weird challenges and extremely focus single player races that you’re stuck repeating all the time. No career mode really.

As for physics, well it’s miles ahead of what it used to be. Although I never played GT Sport. Only GT5 and a bit of GT6 which felt like the same old.
 
I am away and can't test drive anything... So please share your observations after you take some test drives please.

I’ve just had a quick race around Grand Valley in the 430 Scuderia, using the controller. Apologies but I don’t know how to articulate the change in physics/car behaviour terms, but it feels weird to me. The main thing I’ve noticed is the car seems to wiggle when steering centres. So if I do a slight dab of the steering, it feels like the auto-centre is a lot more aggressive than previously? I’m not sure I’m explaining this correctly tbh. But rather than a more gradual return to centre, it’s feels a lot more digital now to me.
 
yes car wiggles much more. overall now it more twitchy.

and here comes the important question? do they approach the physics updates as FOTM? so the sole point of the physics update just to make game feel different? or do they try to make it more realistic? i have a feeling it's just FOTM so players get excited/entertained.

Does adjusting steering sensitivity helps ?
