Nissan GTR LM Nismo Confirmed for GT Academy Final!!!

[Aloha62_2]

That I wasn't aware of... If that is the case then shame on PD 👎👎

A lot of cars use the ultimate unlimited specs often only really seen in qualifying which are usually far removed from race level, others use numbers PD apparently pulled out of a hat. And that's just the ones we can see as there are still a lot of cars with no listed specs.

The way people use a 15 year old PlayStation game slogan as some sort of arguing point is rather comical.

How is it comical when PD still uses that slogan after 15 years?

So did I bruh... I just took this pic from the web, besides nothing to brag about overpaying for a game that's worth 1/3 of its price nowadays

He means how it is comical that people make fun of it for being called "The Real Driving Simulator".

I understood it as him saying that it's comical that some people consider a 15 year old slogan to be relevant today... Well I guess he can clarify it if he wants

I cant believe people are complaining about something as trivial as drivetrain and hybrid specs. Its really sad, imo, since its an actual car that has yet to race. So were getting an exclusive, a HUGE exclusive and we still have complaints even though were not sure its specs. Either way it runs, FF or PART-TIME AWD, the cars intent was the latter. It may have run that way in tests but was abandoned for reliability reasons. Just the same for its "mj class". It may have ran 4, 6, 8 maybe more, but the reliability of the flywheels didnt meet their expectation.

Will people complain if the front wheels are 16" and not 18" like they will race with this year? We could go on and on. Just like the TS030 in game releasing hybrid energy after 120kmh, or every instance after braking. Nitpicking is what it is. Im just happy were even getting the car, as a bonus- this early!

It's a thing, No game is perfect because some ass always want to complain about something.

 

[sparkytooth]

I'd reserve my judgement until the car is actually available in game.

 

[gustavobamba]

What will be the power output of the car???

The 1250 bhp figure???!!!!!????

Most likely, but people are complaining about it because that's not how it will perform at Le Mans.

 

[sparkytooth]

Given the time it takes to get a machine into GT6, it's likely that they have the full hybrid version.

Which doesn't make it necessarily a truth.

You don't say...

I said it before but now I really hope we get more than just one livery for the GT-R:

Very likely to be the case. They won't let this chance to boost the car count a bit slip away.

That is a much better livery than the first one unveiled by Nissan. I bet PD already has that version in the works for the game... And it is a great hommage to the old LMP Nissans.

I like that they kept the 'Retro-Simplicity' of the livery. Most throwbacks these days try to mix things up and ruin the livery while doing it due to stubborn sponsors. It's not stunning, but it's nice.

To be fair, Nissan couldn't do much more to that livery. Other than the lack of Calsonic sponsorship, there wasn't much more that they missed. So, it was easy to carry it over to the GT-R LM. It's simple, but it doesn't ruin the original design.

Wouldn't their GT Academy drivers, Ordonez et al, have verified the performance and handling of the in-game version? The modellers can tweak the settings to make it do whatever they want. Should be capable of low 3:20 laps at Le Mans that's really all it needs to be.

Livery memories of the last major Group C car the R90C '90!

 

[Hetare21]

#21 is a homage of Group C Nissan, and #23 has simple red livery. I wonder what livery #22 has. R390-or-R391-like livery is very nice, I believe. Of course any livery is welcome in GT6 to me.

 

[SVT Cobra GT]

I'll be the one in the corner who wants the Manchester City livery.

That's fairly optimistic for a brand-new car that's not fully developed, especially bearing in mind that the pole time last year was a 3:21.

The pole time will be smashed this year by the latest cars, which have been 3-4 seconds faster than last year's models in testing and at Silverstone and Spa... when they are able to utilise their full energy quota at Le Mans expect sub 3.15's...

So Nissan aiming for a 3.20 is pretty reasonable, any slower and they'd be way too slow.
