Probably the same reason a lot of things don't appear, Kaz. His preference has always been highway driving, I recall him saying during covid he spent a lot of time driving on the empty highway routes. I've never seen him say anything about touge style roads.
F1 and law aren't really my thing, but I'll see what I can find. No promises, though.
Even then he's skimped on the crusing aspect players create. A highway route the length of Nurb24 or Isle of Mann. He added the dang tolls. Imagine driving beyond those in Time Trial or Custom Races.
Unfortunately PD and GT are in the position where they can get away with just about anything. They've got away with producing racing games without any proper racing offline for over a decade and can clearly also get away with not adding new tracks and only 50 new cars to a new game.
the track list would be fine if they just utilized some of thr other tracks they already have in the game there is atleast 10-15 tracks that thepayouts are so weak nobody races there i just went over a few in circuit experience.. kyoto driving park has an awesome track there litterally isnt even a single race on
It's surprising! After all, small developers can bring legendary circuits to their games, but PD with all its marketing power, Sony, budget, can't.
Perhaps the best thing that happened to us is that GT7 came out before Forza 8 and Assetto Corsa 2. When these two games come out, comparisons to GT7 will be unavoidable, and I believe comparisons will be heavy and harsh, visceral and wild.
Seriously, the only way this game will be good, IF certain tracks returned, would be based on how PD use the content. PD could add the same amount of Trak content as PC2, but if PD are like Ricky Bobby and don't know what to do with their hands, the game remains the same as today.
A long time. When was the last Need for Speed game that was widely considered to be good? Hot Pursuit?
Iracing has Suzuka and Tsukuba. And Fuji is supposedly coming this year.
It kinda does. Large sections of that track are simply not wide enough for two cars side by side, or in sections where it is, it's still narrow enough that you can just drive down the middle and nobody could fit either side. Racing there in cars would be terrible.
As I said before, I assume it's a matter of game design priority and philosophy.
Yes, indeed, it is not an efficient track to make. But I was just suggesting a way Isle of Man could work if it was built, since racing wouldn't really be possible (or good).
