"Simulating mechanical failure"

[Mr senna]

Who's ready for the evolution of sim racing my suggestion is to make damage in lv's blue,yellow,red...blue would represent a flat tire or something that's not going to keep you out of the race..yellow would be something like a areo defect,like damage to the bumper, maybe when the car ran into another car hard enough the bumper comes off....ooh no now I gotta buy a new bumper...And let's say you don't have any money for repairs, then that's the way your car looks until you pay.Blow a spark plug" samething".....red would be terrible let's implement a insurance system depending on lv of damage you might not ever get to drive it again or if it is fixable then might haft to wait a period of time to get your car back.this will definitely eliminate the dirty driving another thing if your engine dies gotta get a new one if does it on the track you haft to wait for a tow truck to take your car off the track then you gotta wait see what's wrong and how much and how much time.... I would be ready for this type of drama are you?

I couldnt agree more man! That would definatly spice up the game because Shift 2 Was awesome and did the best it could with real mechanical and physical damage. It would definatly be really awesome to see this in Gran Turismo 6. They already (at least in gt5) had the option of mechanical damage so they have the root, Now they just need to sprout it... Help out alot in Drifting because in FormulaDRIFT, Those cars are high powered but since theyre inches from walls and inches from their competitor, They need to quickly change/fix body repair if they get into anything like that. Of course theyres no rush in a game but still, If it is a "Real Driving Simulator", I believe that it should just throw in all the chips and just go all out into making Gran Turismo 6 The best, most realistic driving simulator ever developed. Polyphony Can do it. And if they did,it would definatly be an even BIGGER icon in the Racing genre.
