Yea, I'm not a game creator, but I'm pretty sure those were caused by two totally different things.
1. On Chamonix (snow) the person switches to 3rd person camera, but because the camera is told to lock onto the car at a certain distance it does what it is told and goes below the track. Causing an effect that you see with cameras in a lot of 3d environments.
2. However, the track disappearing in the replay is different. Why it happens who knows, but as long as they eventually patch it, doesn't happen to often, and only happens in replays... no big deal. Besides, this may be one of the most bug free games as of late, Black Ops, New Vegas, and F1, I'm looking at you. :lol:

And yes Tekken90 said it did not happen when he was racing. It only showed up in the replay.

About the G27, people need to stop worrying. Worst case is that the clutch will have to be toggled with triangle just like GT5P. The TT Demo seemed to give full support, which was a pleasant surprise since it was such a small demo.

However, calling it "fully supported" is tricky since you will not see the G27 listed in the menu's. No big deal, the G25 wasn't in the Prologue menu's and no one had any issues.
 
Side note: How do you pronounce "Chamonix"? I've been pronouncing it "chom-moe-nix" but it can't be that fun to say, can it? :P
It's "sha-moe-knee", the x is silent, and the ch is pronounced like sh, assuming the name is meant to be french.
 
Just called my local gameshop, and even though i do have a pre order for a CE at amazon, the lady just told me that they are getting GT5 on Thursday. Seems like my friend was telling the truth after all. I asked her if she would be selling it on thursday already aswell, she said she doesnt know yet, she doesnt have the list yet, to when shes allowed to sell.

Im gonna be begging her to sell it to me

Will there be day and night transitions in the multiplayer? Dynamic weather?
 
Because multiplayer levels are sometimes downscaled from the singleplayer. An other problem is, if it's in, the weather sync between all the players online at one track. Like in GTA4 there were situations that it was raining at my map while the sun was shining at my friends place... Hope it is in though!

I think they go off the track itself, or you can pick a track with weather.

Indeed 👍

One small question, I'm pretty sure it has already been answered but can't get to find the answer: can all of the HUD be turned off? I'd love to be racing with only my dashboard glowing at night :)
 
In singleplayer it's just eyecandy, but in the multiplayer it will make a huge difference! So fingers crossed!
 
HELP!! Does the supra from the video come like that, or was ir race modified? And what do we know about if we can sell award cars or not on GT5?? THANX
 
will we be able to drive on the full runway of the top gear test track or will it be blocked?
 
By the way, saw a Xplay that had a bit on the GT Awards and Kaz said there that the 2010 Winner will be in GT5. So, it sounds like there will be some DLC on the way.
 
all will be clearer in 8 days

Is it the 24th or the 26th in South Africa? I placed a preorder with BT Games and their shifting headoffices, and havnt confirmed my order yet! :/ They say 26th?
 
Not to start a new complainfest or anything, didn't one of the recent demos have NYC as a track?

Yeah the toyota demo in NYC. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.

There are a few things that don't add up. One is Road Atlanta. Why did they have GT5 pods there for the AMG Academy? It wouldn't make sense for them to drive on the real track and then drive on a different track like the ring in the pod.

EIDT: Nothing on playstation says in was that track playable we need someone to show video or was there.

ANOTHER EDIT: New York was not a playable track

Aren't they just showing the Arcade tracks only? But if thats all the ingame tracks, then I wouldn't be surprised to see DLC then if tracks have been completed already.

Either that or they have been told to cut the content and work on GT6 as they may have set the bar a bit high for themselves for the next one.

Howzit bru, i've pre-ordered the Collectors Edition from BT Games and i've got an e-mail today from BT confirming availability for the 24th:tup:
 
Apparently it's an issue with replays, not during the race. If you read the comments on the video, tekken has answered that one.

Thanks. Don't usually read those :dunce:

Still an issue to be dealt with, but as long as it doesn't affect game play...
 
we seem to have unlocked a bit of a secret.....please allow me this jump of logic, paint schemes we know you have to collect, horns also from the descriptive text on that picture.....whats at the top? Engine tuning parts? dose this mean you can collect specific special tuning parts? Also and most importantly look right at the top of the picture.....all of these things are in a section called "Items" thats very very interesting.

When you look at the tuning vids engine tuning has simply stage 1, 2 and 3. There was also the option for a race/sports ecu as well but nothing else. Could it be you have to "earn/unlock" specific tuning parts such as race cams, pistons, cranks and valves? possibley it would seem....any thoughts?

In the Gamespot Preview they talk about the damage. Beginning at ~ 1min an 15sec.

This sounds completely different to what we have seen from tekken90 so far.

Perhaps Gamespot hasn't even played the final GT5 yet.

^^

I have 2 scenarios in mind:

* Chasing down a very fast friend @ 300kmh+ speeds on the SSR7 =D While my car's turbocharger its blowing at its maximum and the engine is screaming through the tunnels :P

* Chasing the same fast friend in my lime green Lotus Elise in the Nordschleife while the sunset does his magic... epic... epic... epic... 3x epic!

Yes Yes Yes! This is what I think about almost every day haha. I have an equal GT friend, I've known him since I was 4, we have raced each other to the limit and beyond on every GT so far.

We're so hyped to be able to do it again on GT5. Him in his NSX and me in my M3 tearing up the nurburgring in the dark and the rain falling, being illuminated by his brake lights and backfires as the engines echo through the night. It's going to be incredible!

GT forever!

If you've watched the Gallardo video from tekken90, you'd notice the damage is unrealistic when he hits the wall at max speed. But in the Best Buy demo, the damage is much more accurate. Both are premium cars. Still looks funny, but we won't know until we get the game next week.

Standard cars - Dents, scuffs, dirt

Premium - Real time damage

Something is definitely weird.

What puzzle's me is that you can buy different horn types but (apparently) you can't buy (upgrade) braking kits - only adjust the braking bias. :crazy:
