If someone tells you a joke 2 years all the time, it starts to be more annoying than funny. Saw that vacuum cleaner reference already in GT4 times.
 
as long as they go unchanged you're going to keep hearing it, better get used to it as PD doesn't seem to have gotten the memo, and we're halfway through 2012...
 
Sounds nothing like our Dyson, must be a JaYouAr or Asston Marion


PD show there sound capturing deficiencies yet again, that is a very poor Capture/sample of a Dynson!! lol


Seriously, I see PD slowly trying to improve the sound, but the effort is not enough. Pretty much most of the samples in GT5 need to be junked, give and take perhaps a few. Then they need to be done gain.

So you can continue to be antagonistic all you like, but the rest of us just have to shut up and take it, right?


I seriously doubt there will be a substantial improvement to the sound in GT5, save for a miraculously accurate re-attribution of existing samples. The real changes will have to wait until GT6, but platform shortcomings will probably mean those will not be what everyone wants. So don't get your hopes up, and don't cry if it's no different (which is not to say you shouldn't complain by that point.)
 
No offense but a lot of people (including me) think that joke is pretty old. 2 years in fact.
But it's still true! GT% sounds suck!

Beats vacuums anyday :lol:
Have to agree with this guy^^...

Look at this video from the day Kaz and some PD members recording the ACTUAL sound of the Vector M12 for GT2, on a DYNO.
Yes, awesome idea! "We need to record a sound sample from that car... Let's use that mechanical contraption that makes more noise than the actual car, and let's use crappy equipment to record it! Those suckers, errr...umm... our fans will still buy and swear by our crap 15 years from now!"

Crappy equipment? Please qualify that.
 
Anyone notice that the start up engine sounds in the garage much better than the in-game sounds? You know, when you get into a car in the garage menu.

I wonder what they used there...

Hahaha true story. That was probably recorded a whilr back now.
I'm not sursprised why Gt sounds so terrible after that video :lol:

I know, I was too harsh with the equipment comment... Sorry! :dopey:

Don't be sorry, just don't do it. If you know not of what you speak, keep it to yourself. I appreciate the level of frustration, but there is a thing called self-control.

How should they have done it, and why?


@ CorvetteConquer: there is a difference between a raw recording and a sample prepared for looping; most looping samples in the game are taken from multiple listening locations, the startup sounds are usually just from one location (and seem to differ from car to car) so they sound more natural.
 
I bet some of you have V8 or V6 vacuum cleaners at home. At least a 4cil one.

Old joke and a very childish one. The sounds are far from perfect, but calling that vacuum cleaner its stupid.

Ah yeah, I forgot... it's just the internet on 2012. Everybody knows everything.

+1 my friend. 👍

considering the development time of GT5, GT6 will most surely be on the next gen system, no more excuses for PD.

Oh man, "no more excuses" - is that some kind of power trip?
I keep forgetting, the PS4 will leave no room for improvement, anywhere; it will be the zenith of computing and, with it, everything must immediately become perfect.

I still expect GT6 for PS3.

That has bugged me from day 1! My guess is that they did get good sound samples for those cars, but where too rushed to implement them properly and never got arround to doing it... Those startup sounds are the proper sounds for the cars specially the race cars, it would've been such a different story it they've actually done it. I remmeber when I bought my first SuperGT NSX and start it up! Instant smile on my face and was expecting a glorious sound! Was so dissapointed when I drove the car...
 
Some of you who want to keep believe PD recording sounds from their computers or vacuume cleaners? Look at this video from the day Kaz and some PD members recording the ACTUAL sound of the Vector M12 for GT2, on a DYNO. The car had a burnout though, but who cares they did great.

Heh, just makes you wonder even more how PD could possibly have gotten the engine sounds all wrong given they had the equipment, and actually recorded sounds.

With additional dyno whining just to make it more authentic I suppose :P

The cars need to be driven.
