SSRX Alternate Route Found (+more)

Well I see that there isn't anyway we'd see these tracks being released onto GT5 as the community knows that the servers got closed down. There's a small chance we could see this track make it to GT6 when Kaz finally decides it's time to bring in the course maker.

 

I agree the picture looks like it shows an early version of the hairpin goes that under the rail bridge with matching buildings in the same place, I don't think there's room to add an off road track there.

 

So Eiger Nordward and Matterhorn are sorta twins now!?

It's a bit ironic though that I recently just took a pic today of my General Lee replica doing a wheelie on Eiger.

 

I changed my mind a bit. Have a look at this:



While not perfect it shows where the layout might actually have been intended to be located.
I still think it's an early version of the track, though.

 

The next update will arrive in late November. Maybe, an another update in December but we are not there yet. One thing at a time.

There are still three features promised. So first, I will hope that there will at least one of these three features in the next update.

Is that the next update will be disappointing? No. I'm sure at 99%

This is clearly a project that was abandoned. That's why it should not be too excited by these pictures

 

I knew it! These blocked routes didn't get blocked for a lucky reason...

 

I remembered wrong; there's about 75 kilometres between Matterhorn and Eiger, which is a lot longer than I thought. It was Grindelwald from GT2 that was located only a couple of kilometres away from Eiger.

 

Finally something interesting about GT6.

The END OF CANT sign on SSRX appears again. Im kinda feared by these signs. )
Almost forgot about them.

Its really like Rollcage in the tunnel and like Ridge Racer on the twisty banked road outside the tunnel.

Matterhorn Rally looks like PS2 / PSP era game. Same applies for Tahiti Maze, Valencia.

But the Course Creator is still on top of the list.

 

It really does look like something abandoned from GT4. And we knew about the gornergratbahn location since before GT5 launched.

 

Oh dear so many things abandoned down the road...

Let's see what PD comes up with in the next updates but it seems something interesting is being cooked lately, actually... it is about time.

 

I'd be careful about the news being shared in this thread as it might get locked up. I'd suggest that @KinLM change the thread's title if he doesn't want that to happen...

 

What makes you think that?

 

Zahara looks just as poor as this course does.

 

Depending on one's point of view, the thread appears to be peeling off from the original subject/topic into something a bit more general. I'd change the title over just to be safe.

 

Time to page @The Vanishing Boy over his missing tracks stuff.

 

A simple "and more" at the end wouldn't hurt.

 

Well Jordan passed by this thread so I don't think there should be anything to worry about.

 

I could have said that but I didn't.

 

There's a poll now. Interesting!

 

I wouldn't be surprised if there's an alternate start straight on the inside section to match that for the reverse direction run.

 

Will be the last Christmas of GT6...The 'things' needs to happen now!

 

No, this is bad faith

Sierra is very beautiful ! It has absolutely nothing to do with the picture.

 

Poll doesn't make sense. It's already in the game. I don't believe we'll ever see it playable. It's hidden after all but it wouldn't be surprising if it did get unlocked.

 

I mean "playable" by "in the game". It's useless being in the game if it can't be played. I think most people could infer that.

 

I'm aware, hence the emoticon.

 

What the last month for updates on GT6? I wouldn't think so. They got a ton of VGT cars that needs to be released!

 

Why I voted 'no' on the poll:

The first thing you have to do is take a realistic standpoint here with Polyphony Digital. You can be an optimistic but in the end you won't be getting anywhere along the path without ending up disappointed. A totally pessimistic view isn't the way to go either.

No onto why I think this Special Stage Route X layout will not be coming out any time soon. This hidden track or whatever it's supposed to be has been there since GT5's DLC release of SSRX. So that was 2-3 years ago. Factor that in with PD's mysterious methods and you get a track never too be seen again. I just do not think they're going to release for GT players to drive on.

You can tell there are tons of hidden items deep inside every Gran Turismo game. Lots of them are leftovers from previous iterations while others have never seen daylight. Have you heard anything official from PD themselves about these tracks? Not me. Whatever is secret, stays secret.

 

I voted yes. Optimism really, but they've yet to re-introduce the speed-test functionality. In 5 we got it with SSRX... so I kinda figured that perhaps we get SSRX Short when we get the speed test back.

 

And when is that going to happen?

What I don't understand is why PD took out this very useful feature in the first place.

 

I refer to 2.0...
