^ well said.

It's obvious that people who desparately want a demo won't change their minds so I won't bother trying to convince them otherwise any longer.

Thanks, although we're obviously not the ones deciding whether a demo will be released or not and to be honest if they would release one a few weeks ( or whatever time they normally arrive ) I probably couldn't resist downloading it knowing myself.
It's just that I won't need one to get me through this waiting period.
 
It's not a question of necessity, it's about a show of good faith. Some compensation. Probably a good business decision to apologise to the fans in the form of a demo too. I know I'm a little peeved at PD for yet another delay :grumpy:

I'd rather have free DLC for the coming year(s) as an apology or a handwritten letter by Kaz himself.

And vice versa? ;) A demo doesn't matter to me all that much, but on the other hand PD have already made a dozen demos for different game shows. :lol:
 
How can you slow production of a game that's already finished.

And finally, considering we know PD are aware of GTPlanet and its forum, by not paying attention, you have just demonstrated why PD shouldn't listen to fans.

Well done. 👍

We have a winner. You're so smart. Accept my apologies. Now just on one minor issue, how do you know the game and background preparation is complete? Has anyone got evidence to show it? Did KAZ actually say, 'the game is 100% and all background preparation is complete'. You're' just moaning for the sake of moaning. I know if i was PD, i'd be doing plenty more testing before going Gold again.

GT5 has gone gold and only missed the production date by 3 days.

Right now, other than Advertising and PR, PD have nothing to do in way of developing the game, it is waiting to be put on discs and shipped. Have you not been paying attention?

GT5 is no longer in development, the problem of the delay is caused by BluRay burning facilities being prebooked for other games, and with GT5 missing their time slot they have to find another.

PD releasing a demo would have NO impact on the full game.

And so I will reiterate... There is no valid reason not to help get a PSN Demo of GT5. If you don't want to play it then fine, don't download it, but that doesn't mean you have to reduce the possibility for everybody else. For example if a group of people wanted a certain track released as DLC (Lets just use Spa as an example) Then I would not really care and would not purchase it, however I would still help the group who do want it by signing a petition or something. There is no need to shoot down other peoples ideas and opportunities. All you people saying "A petition would do nothing" are idiots, if EVERYBODY on GTP signed it there would be thousands of names, and it would certainly get the attention of the Devs.

So negative, for no reason.

In fact, by calling people idiots your not only being negative, but being offensive. Luckilly for me i didn't say 'A petition would do nothing' so i must not be an idiot.

So one more person who knows everything about the production of GT5, and has clear knowledge that PD are doing nothing. How about you go rob PD's development offices, since you think nobody will be there.

As for the petition, go ahead and sign any petition you wish. In fact i've considered writing a petition so that i can become president, and in the process kill a few million Forza fanboys for fun. I can count on you for the first signature?

Who gives a rats arse about proof. PD said the game was done.

PD may have said the game was done, but it doesn't mean PD has finished work on GT5. And without proof you have nothing.

Well I took the quote straight from KY's mouth that they missed the production date by 3 days.

So they did do what they were required to do by the deadline, however they did not do it in time for the deadline.

Are you also aware that projects have timelines, they could have actually identified they were 3 days behind schedule well before the deadline. In fact, it would have been in PDs best interest to inform Sony of this so that a production slot could be reserved for a later date but still before Christmas.

Which is why I've made this thread.

The game is finished.
There are multiple public demos
The game was 3 weeks from release and it's been delayed AGAIN - without a new date

I've taken mass offence to this last delay, and I've payed for my Signature Edition. I think it's fair for PD to give its long suffering fans a scrap of food.

Poor you taking offence. I feel sorry for you. You are aware you have the option of not buying the game to stick it to them? I dare you.

A petition would be a good idea if everyone backed it up with good reasoning, a thread full of people thinking PD owe them something is not a great place to start.

It's obvious that people who desparately want a demo won't change their minds so I won't bother trying to convince them otherwise any longer.

You right not to bother, sure we're idiots.


Whats worse about all of this, is all the people in here complaining of no demo would be the same people complaining if the demo was released. It would be too basic, or too limited, or too big, or not available for them because they didn't sign up for Playstation Plus.

Please, we need a demo. Something fir Nov. 2nd?
 
I'm not bothering with that irnbrutwinturbo.

If there was one you wouldn't have to D/L it if you are so against it you know. I still can't fathom why people don't want anyone else to have a demo just because they personally don't want it :crazy:

Can you comprehend English? I don't see anyone here saying they don't want you to have a demo, they are saying they could do without it in favour of more content or less bugs.

If a demo existed i would download it, no problem. That is not the issue.

The issue is that PD have far more important things to worry about than releasing some last minute demo to stop moaning fans.
If PD rushed out a demo to keep you quiet, and the demo crashed every time it loaded, what would that do to GT5 sales?

Is it really that hard to comprehend that Sony/PD have better things to do than listen to moaning fans?

Remember, its the same fans who complained about damage, who complain about sound, who complain about standard cars, the mass of complaints have seriously weakened any current or future petition.
 
They had demo builds at E3 GamesCom and TGS!! Plus BestBuy!!

1:30am. I'm going to bed.

None of which would be suitable as a PSN demo unless PD have managed some new fancy compression system.

On top of that, they all had bugs, people hate bugs, people don't buy games if the demo is buggy.

Exactly, a beta has bugs not a demo
 
Don't worry bud. It'll be here soon. Find a TV series to watch. I started Lost in July. Granted I am about to finish it tonight but it helped a little. Going to start It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia next :)


Helps to pass the time.

I have been watching Lost as well, I'm in the middle of season 3 ATM, but I think there is just way to many episodes, so I don't think I'll ever finish them.

Actually a lot of demos are buggy. Most even tell you when they start that it is not the final version of game.

I finished it last night. You can go ahead and stop watching it if you want. Definitely not worth the time I wasted on it...
 
So after almost 6 years Kaz missed it by 3 days...

Murphy's law strikes again...

Give me a tissue, sniff-sniff :dopey:

Polyphony Digital and Sony don't owe you anything. You got an apology from Sony and K.Y. and that is about the best you are going to get. I know gamers like to believe they are the center of attention and their opinion matters, but the sooner you guys stop believing this, the happier you will be. Stop being such self-entitled and reactionary little *****. Your knee jerk reactions have zero effect on how Sony runs things.
 
Why are so many people bent out of shape just from people asking for a demo now? A demo would be great now since the game is going to be released at a later date. It appears to me the game is done from all of the rumors going around. Whats the big deal if PD made a demo for everyone to enjoy? I know it would be a great thing to see a demo and would make waiting for the game more enjoyable.

A lot of demos have bugs, some even have a message at the start up saying this game might not accurately represent the final product or this demo might have bugs/glitches. i ve seen both.

zero effect seriously?
Sony's not the only one seeing this complaining, retailers are. You think retailers are happy with people cancelling their pre-orders and possibly spending the money elsewhere? then there's a possibility they dont even come back to that certain store to buy the game when it comes out.

It's the way some people are asking for a demo. There are a lot of self entitled brats in this thread. Making demands and acting like your way is the only way to go just makes you look stupid.

And a demo is going to fix this how?
 
Shut up the negativity, re hype the game, maybe get a few sales in the process.

Opinions on the internet have zero effect on anything. Most people don't even know about this delay or care. Mostly don't care. Don't think what you see on the internet has any effect, it never has. A very tiny minority of people are butt hurt about this delay, make no mistake of that.

A demo isn't going to happen and it isn't going to fix this.

Never said anything about a demo. I responded to you saying our comments have zero effect on how Sony runs things.
They are not just dealing with us.
People are getting TV's and accessories to go with this game. Delays piss off the retailers who aren't just concerned with people getting a game.
The faster you get a product off the shelf, the faster you're going to be able to sell that same client additional products.

But I would download it and play it, and I'd be happy doing it.
 
I still can't believe the negative attitudes of some people here. Last time I try to help.

Your last post was anything but helpful. It was actually pretty childish.

Saying "ooh I deserve compensation and the only apology I would accept is a demo and absolutely everything has to be on my terms." is just dumb. Those sort of comments serve zero purpose and help no one.

The real world doesn't work this way. Don't think some negative comments and threats on the internet hurts businesses. Sony is hurt by this yes, but that's it.

Oh the irony 👎

WTF?!
