Regarding the Shift video, I am thinking it would be way more involved than that. You name your driver, pick your driving suit, and then you have a series of tests. This will determine your difficulty. Since it still doesn't show the difficulty when you play Arcade, then I am guessing you need to re-do the test to re-do the difficulty.

However, this would not work in Time Trial. The leaderboards would be horrible. So, we need to ask Tekken90 if he had a tutorial/test and ask him to check the Time Trial in Arcade mode for physics settings.

I didn't think that it would be as simple as SHIFT. It was just the first thing that came to mind when I read your post.

Also, another thing, with the B-Spec Mode, didn't GRID have something like a basic, watered down version of that?
 
Less of a relaxing drive, more of a never ending winding madness with walls closer to each other than the width of your car!

They don't call it The Green Hell fer nuthin, boy!

It's a nice drive in a slow car, but an intense challenge in a fast one. Maybe work your way up to it.

Maybe you are referring to having the computer drive your car around the track and into the pit after taking damage. It's helpful when your car is just battered to bits and steering it around is tough on the wheel. I don't foresee a need for this with the pathetic damage we've seen so far :)

You could hire/fire team mates, and race alongside them in events... but I can't remember if you could send them to race without you...

I don't think you could either, but that's why I called it a basic watered down version.

I'm probably not making any sense right now. It's 4am here, so forgive me.

Yea sorry, I didn't mean for it to come off like that. Because that probably is the best example of what I mean.

About B-Spec in Grid, I wasn't aware of that and actually own (but barely played) the game. If it is in there, I wasn't aware.

It really wasn't a whole different mode, but you could fire and hire people as you needed. They always raced alongside you, never without you. That's what I was getting at with "B-Spec Mode"(wasn't a mode, it was part of the career) in GRID

I forgotten about that, but that's not what I meant. I meant the crewmates, how you can fire and hire them. But you couldn't build them up like with the B-Spec Mode on GT5.
 
Cool, would you mind posting a link along with the embed? Not all devices can play YouTube's HD videos. It says "video unavailable" for me. RACECAR and I figured this out.

Sure

From Japanese store demo unit.
Pro physics, R2 tyres all round, active steering off, traction control at 5

Just noticed something-the leaked image of the Collectors Edition has a black & white cover, where the offical Collectors Edition has a full colour cover. Also the words "Collectors Edition" is missing from official version:

Leaked-https://www.gtplanet.net/forum/showthread.php?t=132225

Official-http://eu.gran-turismo.com/gb/news/d15022.html

Apologies if this already has been spotted. Just thought it would explain discrepencies between previous demo videos and latest videos.

Yeah I noticed that a while back - thought it was odd, since the official Sony press material I have seen, show a red car on the cover....

edit - Signature edition looks to be grey

Thanks Cool. Yeah it's odd he has TC up that high and it isn't hampering the car. Almost like that driver aid has been completely reworked.

I have been wondering about this since GT5p came out and we got our hands on the GT-R. That car has a very sophisticated computer system. How has PD been able to replicate this so it feels real. The 430 has several modes on the steering wheel. Again, how has PD pulled this off in the game?
 

Ahh.. now that looks like the Time Trial demo I knew and loved. :)

I guess those leaked videos (from Czech Republic or wherever) are mostly in some kind of arcade mode, the physics don't look quite as convincing as in this video, for example. Or maybe it's just the cockpit effect.. the preference for chase cam view in the leaked videos are definitely a sign that we're watching someone who likes a more arcade style gameplay. It took me a while even to learn to stay on the track at any decent speed in the Time Trial, so I guess most people would just get frustrated and give up, with the kind of learning curve you have with proper physics simulation.
 
Hey, did they remove everything? Did they talk only BS all the time?

Did Kaz not told us that Nascar damage will be incredible, thousands of parts fly away and so on?

There was something about cockpit damage? Where is it? Premium cars will have full cockpit damage???

Where is mechanical damage?

WTH happened? Really, I must say FM3 is better... Even though I´m a huge GT fan, where are all the features they told us?

The same was in GT4... They mentioned that it will have online feature, damage and so on... And then?? Oh sorry guys it will be in GT5... Really, this game is dissapointing, after all that wait...

GT4 HD with +100 cars -20 tracks

It seems like they put rain and night day in, only to say it´s a new game...

Oh at least we got skidmarks and reverse lights...

Yes it's GT4 HD, with loads more features and a completely reworked physics engine built from scratch.

What have these guys at PD being doing for the last 6 years?
 
Check out the Gran Turismo 5 - Chamonix Main Gameplay vid on youtube.


It looks brilliant!! And has a WRC Ford doing a small rollover.
 
They should not talk so much if they cant put it in the game...

The last year, they mentioned so much great things that will be in the game... and now?

Where is the wind tunnel? Where is THIS great feature in the game that Kaz was talking about and was so proud about but never told us what it is?
 
No Matter what People Think the Doubters , People Vote with Money

Quoted from the News on This Site

As observed by PlayStation LifeStyle, Gran Turismo 5 suddenly became very popular after the game’s official release date announcement last Friday. Within 24 hours, the standard version of the game topped Amazon.com’s video game “Movers & Shakers” list with a 1,300% increase in sales rank. The more expensive GT5 Collector’s Edition came second on the list, with an 823% increase, followed by the 160GB PlayStation 3 console with a 236% increase. Impressive numbers, to say the least!

Not bad for a Game as yet Unreleased and Not Played by the Majority of the General Public :)

Chill! First off, you never see all the footage or features in a games (you have heard of spoliers I take it?)

COD games for example never show off everthing. So chill man!
 
Yeah I just read the list 2-3 pages before... Also seen the Nascar damage video on youtube... What a joke... Not even mechanical damage... It was already in the E3 demo... Why the hell did they remove everything??

Sigh.. Just because you haven't seen it in these extremely limited videos doesn't mean it's not in.

I'm still very skeptical that this is actually the full game and that this guy is not from sony.
 
you dont know if they did! Is it really hard to comprehend, that we still dont know anything, as the game isnt released? Those checz could be telling a lie, og having a reviewer version or 2000 other things. We simply dont know anything yet.

Why not wait 10 more days until you whine completley, and actually try the game. Or wait until others here have tried it in the full GTmode version etc.

Really - the impatience and lack of trust is disturbing.
 
Please stop your whining.
I'm conifdent GT5 will be great, it might not be perfect but WHO CARES, its a game.

We don't know how the guy posting the vids has set up the game.
Pro/ standard may be a global setting for all we know.

If you think other games are better please do us a favor and buy that other game.

I think the track generator is a great option. with just a few clicks you get a new track every time... what do you mean we don't have enough tracks.

a few weeks back there was some actual news in this topic now it's just complains about something you have noe experianced first hand yet.

just had to get that of my chest.
