Shuffle Races

[Lissa]

Many of my best hours on GT5 were spent shuffle racing. For someone like me, who hasn't got a freaking clue about tuning a car, shuffle racing leveled the playing field. Instead of racing against tuning wizards with their tweaked and honed machines, we were all racing standard cars. I suck at tuning but I don't suck at standards!

Same - I spent 99% of my time Shuffling on GT5. We need this back asap for GT6 !!!

 

[CeeJay]

Please bring it back, PD It was a wonderful way to show off the sheer amount of cars in GT and led to some great online races. Besides the course maker this is the other absent feature from GT5 I really miss.

I miss shuffle! This is where there is no tuning but driving skills to give you the 1st place!

Did PD make any comment regarding shuffle?

I have been watching for reference of it, and I haven't seen that they've even commented about the feature.
But I hope if someone else has noticed any mention of it, they will link it in this thread.

We want shufffffllllleeeeeee

 

[Ronny W]

Please bring shuffle back now.....

 

[Pedaltotheend]

No GT6 in my PS3 untill they bring back shuffle.

 

[TP3]

Spent a majority of my time doing Shuffle races and dearly miss that online feature in GT6.

However...beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeEEEEP!

I want my dirty shuffle back

I race with a small group of racers, we run friday night races which are random and chosen by one of the racers at the start of the week, same on sundayn. Then once a month are going to be running 2hour and 40min races.
We did the same thing on GT5 except we had the luxury of running shuffle races after the events for those who wanted to stick around and race, it is a bigger loss to GT6 than I first thought and it does need to be brought back.

I'm done with GT6 untill they bring back shuffle. Has anyone heard anything official regarding shuffle?

They did mention a Quick Match mode which will be added, so we can all pray it's Shuffle racing under a new name...

I would vote again if I could.

It was 1 feature that added hours of playtime.

You really think that's what "Quick Match" is supposed to be?
I guess it's possible that shuffle would be part of it... But the description of "Quick Match" is vague... but also makes it sound like it's a self-hosted room more than a format...

Quick Match
This mode is for those who want to get in and race online right away. Matching is performed according to preset regulations, and the race will start when there are enough participants.

It kind of makes it sound like there's some computer automatic race director hosting a room of strangers & just starting races automatically.
What does that mean preset regulations? Could mean something shuffle-like. But doesn't necessarily sound like Quick Match is just another name for shuffle.

 

[MarkB75]

Bring it back.

 

[BSD200]

So the one thing in GT5 that I found innovative is not included in GT6.

Must say I am a bit surprised.

I expected to be able to filter the search for online rooms so that only Shuffle was visible, instead Shuffle is gone...

I've tried supporting PD with GT6 and it's shortcomings, but not including shuffles is beyond a joke. It produces the most simple, fair and competitive racing without the need for a league.

I also miss seeing that little bit of orange writing whilst scrolling and thinking, SORTED!

 

[Haralabos16]

They have to bring Schufle back in GT6 !!!! it was great racing . but they have to improve it because i don't think that a camaro from 69'' and a cobra, are in the same category with the GTR and the audi R8 ...

 

[psavi]

I'm not currently racing online on GT6, so I didn't know shuffle was not in it. But I definitely want it back.

I wish you could impose limitations on tires too, as I remember you could only do shuffle races in sports hards. Or maybe it was PP dependent, IDK. But they better offer customization to the shuffling system.

 

[Ghost_Dog_59]

I used to play GT5 shuffle several times a week. I haven't played GT6 for over a month now because the shuffle mode isn't included

Quick Match is matchmaking, not shuffle.

One of the best features in GT5 online. It would be a very welcome addition to GT6.

I definitely miss shuffle racing! But who knows maybe it will come back in a future update....hopefully. Another thing I think they need to bring back that is kind of related to shuffle racing is the option to choose 'Random' for the track selection when the host sets the track to Vote. I just miss doing the Random Racing Lobbies I did back on GT5. Shuffle Racing and everyone would vote for Random for the track. It got pretty intense at times and others were just pure fun! Please PD Bring back Shuffle Racing and the option to choose Random track when voting for tracks!

Shuffle is the currently the 4th most wanted feature in GT6, according to this forum. If PD had no intention of ever including it in GT6, then they have seriously underestimated it's popularity among the online community.

can I ask what is and where is shuffle racing in GT5?

It's a type of racing available in online lobbies. Once connected to the internet, click on the "Open Lobby" icon, & then scroll through all the available rooms until you come to one with "Shuffle Race" written in yellow. Most rooms will have "Normal Race" written in blue, ignore these. Best to enter only Shuffle rooms with "Clean" in the main title, if you want clean racing that is of course. Try it & see what you think of it. 👍

Shuffle races are just so simple yet brilliant idea and I have no clue why it was dropped. I've been in belief that at least most of the bigger game titles have some kind of user statistics where the developers can look whether some features are popular or not.

Second post.

Shuffle racing is an online feature in GT5.

Only 2 months left of GT5 ONLINE SHUFFLE and then it's over. STILL NO SHUFFLE IN GT6, I guess they are to busy on GT7, and with what they have done with GT6 makes me want to go and buy a gaming PC not a PS4, anyway PS3 and PS4 only offer 1 driving simulator, the other games are all arcade games, and I'm getting 2 old for BING BING BANG BANG GAMES.

ATTENTION PD STOP WORKING ON GT5 AND GET CRACKING ON FINISHING GT6.
