Well ok then...I'm more of a Gran Turismo guy than a video game guy so I'm not so up on all this - thanks for the explanations. Shame PD doesn't do something to work it out:-( I do LOVE the RUFs though:-)
Where all of the problems are listed out so he can get around to fixing them.Here are my gripes in no particular order, feel free to add to them as you see fit.
1. No brake upgrades.
2. Want to paint your car blue but haven't gotten the chip yet? Sorry, haven't heard of that color.
3. All of this research that they spent on cars and a lot of them don't handle the way they should. I get that a lot of people here may not have a lot of seat time with the real cars, or at all, but that Lotus challenge where it's on ice skates should be proof enough.
4. Synthesized car sounds. I will never ever understand this one.
5. Where's all this "realistic" damage I keep hearing about in the commercials? If you damage a standard car, you know what happens? It melts. Run into a wall doing 100mph? Don't worry, your headlight will just deform a little bit, no big deal, shake it off.
6. Car manufacturers are missing. Want to go buy a Porsche Carrera GT? A what? Never heard of it. How about a Cadillac? That some sort of new coffee maker?
7. Some car manufacturers only have one car for you to choose from in the new dealership section. When was the last time you saw a car lot that had only one model of car???
8. But don't worry, you can pick everything else up used! Eventually...
9. Except then you'll have to do $75k worth of maintenance to get it running like new again.
10. You only get one race for some of the challenges, I believe the Mini race is a good example of this.
11. They can release game settings for a steering wheel that hasn't even hit the market yet, but they can't patch the settings for the Logi G25/27???
12. Idiotic AI. All computer controlled cars must be a.)driven by elderly women who have been blinded in both eyes and b.)weigh 3 times the normal amount so as to plow you off the road more easily.
13. Shadows.
14. When driving a car, and you hit another car, it does not sound like two canoes banging together.
15. Prize cars need to be something special. I have been let down so many times so far.
16. Need more tracks. Spa, Bathurst, and Pikes Peak come to mind.
17. Realistic tuning. Try walking into a performance tuning shop and asking them to upgrade your Eclipse with a "Stage 3" package.
18. Menu Music. I've heard better while standing in an elevator. The problem is that everyone has different tastes when it comes to music, so you should be able to load your own.
19. Have I mentioned the AI and realistic handling? I saw a '74 Countach come in ahead of an '09 Murcielago the other day. In what world would this ever be possible? Maybe if the Murc was running on donuts?
20. Requiring a Lvl 24 car for a Lvl 23 race that may or may not show up in the used car lot.
21. Which leads me to... grinding. WoW this is not.
22. How hard would it be to make wheels interchangeable on standard cars?
23. Adjustable transmissions that aren't... adjustable.
24. I haven't played online yet, but from what I've read, no leaderboards or credits to be earned online?

Where all of the problems are listed out so he can get around to fixing them.
1. No brake upgrades. You already have sport brakes and the brake ballance controller on the car. Take a close up of some of those brakes. The Challenger has Brembo brakes, and I would assume ALL cars are already upgraded with better brakes.
2. Want to paint your car blue but haven't gotten the chip yet? Sorry, haven't heard of that color.How about you just buy a blue car. There's several cars in several shades of blue. Quit crying about it and think.
3. All of this research that they spent on cars and a lot of them don't handle the way they should. I get that a lot of people here may not have a lot of seat time with the real cars, or at all, but that Lotus challenge where it's on ice skates should be proof enough. Actually, the cars seem to handle like they should to me. The Lotus is an extremely lightweight car one street tires with a lot of power for it's size. If you learn to feather the brakes and actually make an effort to learn how to control the car, you might actually beat the Lotus Challenge.
4. Synthesized car sounds. I will never ever understand this one. I don't even understand this complaint. 98% of the sounds are accurate. I'm sure the remaining ones are being fixed and will be updated with a patch. Stop crying over split milk.
5. Where's all this "realistic" damage I keep hearing about in the commercials? If you damage a standard car, you know what happens? It melts. Run into a wall doing 100mph? Don't worry, your headlight will just deform a little bit, no big deal, shake it off. The damage system is level based. 10 minutes of smashing into walls at level 1 won't get you as much damage as 10 minutes of smashing into the wall at level 30. Also, there's going to be a damage update in the next patch.
6. Car manufacturers are missing. Want to go buy a Porsche Carrera GT? A what? Never heard of it. How about a Cadillac? That some sort of new coffee maker? This is simply bitching. We've known for about 4 years that Porsche wasn't going to be in. I mean Kaz came right out and said "No, Porsche won't be in." It's impressive how many people still don't know this. I'm sure Cadillac has some stupid exclusive licenses with Microsoft. But, at least you have the Cien.
7. Some car manufacturers only have one car for you to choose from in the new dealership section. When was the last time you saw a car lot that had only one model of car??? This is even more bitchy than the last one. I don't even know how to respond to this. I mean, so what? This is just bitching to bitch.
8. But don't worry, you can pick everything else up used! Eventually...Yeah, this is how it's worked since GT1. What's your point?
9. Except then you'll have to do $75k worth of maintenance to get it running like new again. Not always. The cost of repairs is dependant on the cost of the car...just like in real life. In real life, you're not going to pay $100 to repair an Mercedes' engine, are you? Idiot.
10. You only get one race for some of the challenges, I believe the Mini race is a good example of this. Another example of bitching just to bitch. All the single make races have only one race. Get over it.
11. They can release game settings for a steering wheel that hasn't even hit the market yet, but they can't patch the settings for the Logi G25/27??? A patch is actually coming for this. Don't be stupid and keep up with the latest news.
12. Idiotic AI. All computer controlled cars must be a.)driven by elderly women who have been blinded in both eyes and b.)weigh 3 times the normal amount so as to plow you off the road more easily.More crying, I see. The AI does get a lot better at higher levels. Heck, in the endurance races, they'll even move out of your way as you lap them.
13. Shadows. Already explained. Kaz knows about the issue, said there were many factors why they aren't better, but Kaz does want to fix it.
14. When driving a car, and you hit another car, it does not sound like two canoes banging together. Get in your car and run into another car. Surprisingly, it sounds exactly like that. Why? Modern cars are mostly made of plastic and aluminium alloys....much like more modern canoes. Try watching a race sometime and listen to the in-car sound when two cars collide. GT captured pretty nicely.
15. Prize cars need to be something special. I have been let down so many times so far. This is actually a good point, but there are a few good prize cars, you just have to work for those. But, then again, you can't get prize cars more than once, so there really isn't any need to have really nice prize cars.
16. Need more tracks. Spa, Bathurst, and Pikes Peak come to mind. MORE crying. I'm not even going to respond to this one.
17. Realistic tuning. Try walking into a performance tuning shop and asking them to upgrade your Eclipse with a "Stage 3" package. Actually, believe it or not, that is VERY realistic. If you did that, I bet you most shops would know what you're talking about. Reducing the Weight in a car is done in 3 stages. There are also multiple levels of performance parts. Like there is a Stage 1, Stage 2 and Stage 3 Turbos. They all do different things and have different HP upgrades.
18. Menu Music. I've heard better while standing in an elevator. The problem is that everyone has different tastes when it comes to music, so you should be able to load your own. You could just turn it off. But I guess that would be too easy, wouldn't it.
19. Have I mentioned the AI and realistic handling? I saw a '74 Countach come in ahead of an '09 Murcielago the other day. In what world would this ever be possible? Maybe if the Murc was running on donuts? Racing isn't always about the power of the car, but the skill of the driver. I mean, look at Team Corvette. They're go up against cars that, stock, would destroy them, yet they have such good drivers that they win...A LOT! There was an episode of Top Gear where they had the Queen of the Nurburgring Racing a Ford Transit Van around the Ring and she was passing Porsches and BMWs and several other cars because she was just a better driver.
20. Requiring a Lvl 24 car for a Lvl 23 race that may or may not show up in the used car lot. What? Where? You do know there are OTHER cars you can use for those races, right? You don't HAVE to have a level 24 car, you're just an idiot.
21. Which leads me to... grinding. WoW this is not. It's an RPG. It comes with the territory.
22. How hard would it be to make wheels interchangeable on standard cars? The rims in GT5 were designed for the Premium cars, and thus have a higher polygon count. A premium rim on a standard car would look REALLY stupid. I mean, the rim would probably have more polygons than the car it's on. It would look bad.
23. Adjustable transmissions that aren't... adjustable.This is minor, if you ask me. You can adjust the top speed slider. Which gives you a wide range of gear lengths.
24. I haven't played online yet, but from what I've read, no leaderboards or credits to be earned online? Leaderboards, experience and credits from online races are coming in a update.
I can't be bothered to go into discussion with you..
