It's not like we need scenery like Rome or London for example.

If it's only one thing the course creator has taught me, then it has to be that scenery actually is important to me.
You can create wonderful things using it, yet the fact they all have the same scenery you have no control over (unlike the one used in ModNationRacers) makes that it becomes rather boring quickly or that a track lacks a certain individuality, sometimes scenery has a clear function too by offering a visual marker or something which makes you remember what's coming next.
So we actually do need scenery, maybe not always as elaborately detailed as most city tracks are (but if they include them, they should be).
 
Hopefully ALL the leaked track logo's are part of the Spec 2.0/DLC update; and hopefully that Pike's Peak track that someone mentioned a while back...

...nonetheless, I am very happy! I hope they give us more info before said release date.

What the hell is the point of game saves during endurance races?

There's hardly any sense in endurance races as it is. In reality they are a test of fitness, stamina and concentration. In GT5 they are only a test of concentration.

With game saves during the race, even that skill is not needed!

It is totally pointless.

No because in real life no-one runs for 24 hours solo.
 
MOAR TRACKS!
I would **** on every walls if they were to release all these legendary tracks from old GT including Complex String! Really want to Drift this thing!

More modern cars too as premium, RM, More wheels for every car and ability to choose the diameter! I also want to add Offset and wheel spacer, fix the blocky shadow, drag race and change the car sound..

Can you imagine how dull it will be, loading up GT5 to do another 10 laps of Le Mans.

Same next day, same next day, same next day......

Who would do it? Whose time is so empty that they would spend their free time doing this night after night???

Ya' we're not professionals.. We either got school, work, or both. Unless I'm a retired old man, or rich and running a company from a phone or something like that, I cant spare a day to do a 24 Hour sitting. A day has potential for so many interruptions.

On a side note, hopefully bob can be your right hand man again after watching him go on out on his own for so long.

Yet your life is apparently empty enough to devote 24 straight hours?

I'm only going by your logic.

Check this nonsense out if you're that bothered about an option you can choose not to use.
 
First off, a save mid-enduro option would require very little addition and would not burden those who don't want to use it, so how about just not using it if you don't want to?

You think I've wanted half the updates PD shoves into my system with the patches blah blah blah that end up making GT5 slower loading and such? I've never glitched a track in my life and I don't care to because it has nothing to do with racing. So I have to add new totalitarian implements due to a group of cheaters?

THIS I can make space for, though :)
 
That 'Super Speedway' logo is interesting. Also:
1. Want more stuffs for the track creator.
2. I bet the FT-86 II will be DLC/added.
3. Want all those bootiful photomode locations we can't actually photomode in.
4. Want multiple cars in photomode.
5. My mum's car Premium ;P (It's in the game, just Standard)
6. Fiat 500 RM > Abarth 500.
7. More RM's.
8. Renaultsport Twingo, Clio 197 and Megane 250 Cup.

All of the above would really, REALLY make my day.

The key word you used is in reality, in reality 24 hour races are driven by 3 drivers taking stints, if everyone playing GT5 had 2 friends who were willing and able to do stints then it would be more realistic to do it in 24 hours straight, or when your B-spec Bobs could take stints (like it was possible to so in GT4, nobody seemed to complain about that).
Not everyone is in that situation, so to do a 24 hour event solo currently requires you to pause the game leaving your PS3 running for days (with the danger of YLOD, unnecessary energy consumption or the risk of powercuts).
Basically it's for practical reasons only, if people learn to finally understand this, this whole pointless discussion can hopefully end, thankfully Kaz seems to understand, even if it took some time before he did.
 
So I was looking at my used cars to see which ones seemed detailed enough to possibly become prem, and these are what I got:

V8 Vantage,
Skyline MNPIII R34
XKR R Performance 02
Shelby GT350R
E Type
Golf Mark I
Celica SS-II
Lancer Evo VI Rally car 99
The three Impreza rally cars
XFR

That's all I can possibly see from my garage...
 
I'm lowering my expectation on this one. It actually got my attention when I was looking through my phone on this site, but end it was just a short tweet. Well, who knows, hopefully it will give me a reason to buy a ps3 again (old one got stolen, so no GT5 lately). :)
