GT Sport has been localized for several languages and we know that translation errors can occur, some huge mistakes, others not so much, leave in this space the errors found in your language and how this can affect your immersive experience with the game!

Ex: For those who play the game in portuguese, may have noticed a serious translation error, the english term "SLOW DOWN" is translated as "VELOCIDADE REDUZIDA" (Reduced Speed), with the verb in participle (portuguese form) and in the past, while the correct form is "REDUZA A VELOCIDADE" on the imperative and in the present, this can affect beginner players unfamiliar with the game..

When you start a race it says "FINAL" in english, which doesn't make any sense unless you had first done a series of races & this was the final one.

So this picture of a sheep keeps popping up. It ruins my immersion, and I don't think she baa's in English :lol: (She's still pretty smexy though :p).

But on the serious side, at least they haven't wrote "Tuabo" instead of "Turbo" along the side of one of the Kei cars again.

"The race has been cancelled."

This is a bug and didn't happen until the Sport Mode visual redesign a couple months ago. That message is meant to trigger when the race has, in fact, been cancelled (which happened to me once)

And it's often triggered after an FIA Qualifying session, even if it lasted for the entire 10 minutes.

Well yeah, that's the bug I was mentioning.

I see. Its been around so long I guess they must've re-classified it as a feature.
 
First of all, why do I need to change it to metric when Canada already switched to metric FIVE DECADES ago?

But the true kicker is that all it does is change it to kilometres, pounds and inches still remain!!:crazy:

Gimme my centimetres, gimme my kilos come on
 
While not inherently incorrect, the "Start warm-up" message you get every time you enter a race lobby sounds a bit... iffy. Maybe if it was worded differently like "Warm-up in process" it would be slightly less strange.

Could just be me though.

The heads-up display in the Hyundai VGT says "1th" place.

I find such an oversight hilarious. That is the first thing I noticed upon driving the N2025. Damn you crippling OCD!
 
Gran Turismo is incorrectly referred to as "Grand Turismo" in the new Ford GT's description.

Nice, they fixed it, thanks PD, now..., please, could you use the word "macio" instead of "suave" for the soft compound of the tires? Is a word that is only commonly used in the portuguese language to characterize wines, absorbents and cosmetics..

Always did find it odd that "The session has been cancelled" was what you read at the end of qualifying for the FIA races. Seems like "The session has ended" would've made more sense.

Couldn't resist :p
 
During warmup, the countdown to the race now has the message "until warmup" next to it.
 
There's a lot in Traditional Chinese, mostly in library and model descriptions. I really hope they could fix it soon as it is related to the facts and data. Annoying.
