I've been saying all along that sounds have just not been a priority for PD and I think what we've learned in the last few days has proven that in spades. I don't think they have even started improving sounds yet for GT7 and I highly doubt we'll see anything much different on the majority of cars in that game.
From the pit-stop blog, Regarding Engine Sounds of Gran Turismo: (Part.3).
You have been warnedThanks, Nostradamus. 👍
The first demo on PS4 will reveal all.
, standards (thank you pd) are to be still enjoyed but just because graphics are a bit behind doesnt mean i want sound to be too, even if Kaz feels that too many cars are a probelm for sound.
The "technical support" in the form of the training that prepares young people for a career in the games industry is focused on established processes, on productivity. It's a mill already.You have been warned
I make my prediction (read guess) on calculation they are now searching for people to hire to fix the almost too perfect sounds. Since it is about that soundengineers seem to have dissapeared from the surface of the earth (or let me give you a hint...they have been hired to other gamecompanies that think sound is important even before communities, reviewers and regular players start complaining).
Who puts a fiver on the majority of GT7 cars sounding a bit rougher (a la Senna content), but not having correct sounding samples still? AKA they will just play around a bit with the same old digital collection.Kind of funny how the sounds went from "too perfect" a year ago to sucking.
It's more likely that GT6 will get an update for all cars to bring them in line with the Red Bull and Senna cars, and that's pretty unlikely now.
That's why i think they will just move that objective over to GT7.

No, you said it's likely GT7 will get "roughened" sounds like the RB/S cars (they're actually procedurally very different from every other sound, but meh), I said it's more likely GT6 will; but that's actually somewhat unlikely. So I'm saying that GT7 only going as far as the current halfway house of the RB/S cars is extremely unlikely.That's why i think they will just move that objective over to GT7.

Gotta be careful expecting things from PD these days... You always seem quite sure the sounds on the RB/Senna cars are only halfway the internal PD process towards greatness, but on the other hand in PD's lazy logic they might also say "We've had good comments on the RB/S sounds, seeing we want to finally port new sounds over to all our 1400 something cars in time for GT7 we better make haste, and just copy these here samples bare some tweaking.
I don't believe the RB/S cars use samples at all. That's sort of the crux of my "optimism", if you like.
It's usually wise for me to steer clear of threads dealing with sounds, Standards or bot A.I., but what the heck.

I was the early one doubting that we'd get a serious sound update in GT6, because 1200 cars are a lot. Actually, it's more like 900 to 1000 discreet makes and engines. But then as Griffith pointed out in another thread long ago, most street cars can be modified, so let's ballpark at 600, multiply that by four for just the muffler mods (stock, sport, semi-racing and racing), and that gives you 2400 recording jobs to work on. A lot of that can be fudged, and I can't think of a better reason to fudge! And if Forza 4 on 360 doesn't have room for quality sounds on all cars - it doesn't - you can't expect magic on a PS3 game.
GT7 has to have something. If they simply tweaked and roughed up the existing sounds for what they don't have ready to go at launch, that would be something.
Got a link to show that PD dropped it out of GT5 due to some people complaining about it? If so, got any logical reason why they couldn't just insert an on/off switch into the game?
