After a year's hiatus from Gran Turismo 6 and the series in general, another spark has came to ignite my flame of interest. This past holiday, I had received a racing wheel for Christmas (a Driving Force Wireless, nonetheless, but regardless) and it has gave me a completely new experience with the game. And to my recent discovery, the community has been quite busy with modifications to the Course Maker to share amazing and unique creations that nobody would have ever thought were to come into fruition, from to-scale recreations of real-life and video-game circuits and courses, to extreme jumps, turns, banks, and just overall craziness that nobody would have ever deemed possible.
This alone has gave me a new sense of enjoyment for playing Gran Turismo 6 again; it's like I am playing the game again for the first time (which can be seen as a good or bad aspect for some) and I'm enjoying every minute spent, every mile driven, every race won & lost, and every car's personality with my new wheel.
To get to my point, the GT6 Course Maker is a strictly online feature all the way around, much to my dismay. On top of having to sync your courses to the GT6 servers to successfully import them into the game, you need to remain signed-in to PSN to even play/access the courses at all. This alone has me quite worried for the future of the GT6 Course Maker, and everyone's creations will be forever lost once GT6's online services are put to an end.
With these recent awesome developments to creating amazing courses for Gran Turismo 6, I once had a previous thought about the Course Maker's future. These new developments with creating very enjoyable courses for the game now have me more worried than ever. Least to say, I am soaking it up while I still can.
To summarize, what do you think will eventually happen to the GT6 Course Maker? Will it be salvaged? Will it be permanently lost forever in code? Share and discuss your thoughts below; I'm curious on the thoughts of other users, especially how since the Course Maker has rekindled interest in the game for lots of players, myself included.
