The GT Sport Epic Whining and Crying Thread

[Alpha Cipher]

@Alpha Cipher you pissed him off. You're getting ignored now.

ooooohhhh nooooo that's sad

But isn't he basically complaining about other people complaining about other people complaining in a GTS complain thread, which is what he doesn't like?

Even back when Sony announced the content updates and the roadmap - which we've since completed, on schedule - no-one ever said the word "monthly". Ever.

You should only expect what is announced.

Yes, quite obviously you do. If two comes after one, why would you assume 635 and get annoyed at other people if it isn't real?

Ok, maybe I'm not clear enough. At the end, the stubbornness of Poly is a success.

GT Sport... Pick it up now for 8 Commas and Minuses.

...kudos for complaining about people complaining about people complaining.

You're the one complaining about people coming into this thread and posting counter-arguments, not me.

And you're the one coming into this thread complaining about me complaining about people complaining about other people complaining about GT Sport!

This is getting silly now, shall we stop it?

Since this is the epic whining and crying thread, I'll go ahead and post here. How the bloody blue blazes do you get your "DR" rating to go up? I've been stuck at 'D' since day one! My "SR" rating is at a solid "S", so I'm pretty lost on where to improve or what to do to get my "DR" rating to move at all.

Try finishing at the top half of the field

No support for 5.1 surround sound! Only stereo & 7.1. GRRRR!

I can't make sense of what's going on with my connection in GTS. Ever since Saturday, almost everything has gone south. My liveries hardly ever load up, entering and exiting certain menus takes over a minute, I get frequently disconnected from PSN even though I'm not being signed out, and reconnecting is an inescapable chore, though I can get back on occasionally.

The weirdest thing about all this is that, on the rare chance that I manage to get into a daily race, I never end up getting disconnected. I always have a good signal strength of 4 bars, and that reading is consistent throughout my time in the lobby. There is a little more lag than what I've gotten before, but I expect a lot more lag considering how slow everthing else is.

I just don't get it. Apparently I have 4 bars for signal strength, and yet GTS hardly functions outside of races. If this is what GTS is like on a 4-bar connection, I can't imagine what's it's like for anyone who has 3 bars or lower.

So we can either have drivers names, or car names, but we can't turn them off. In GT6 we could have either, & turn them off entirely. So, that's another step backwards.

Was doing a one make custom race when I noticed that the driver names were plastered all over my rear view mirror. Very unhelpful. Even more unhelpful to have the one make of car plastered all over my rear view mirror. If I was racing online I'd then have another set of names plastered above everyone's car. So, apparently we need to see players names twice, & have them plastered over our rear view mirror in cockpit view. In GT6 you could turn both on or off.

This game is riddled with so many thoughtless game design decisions.

Agree 100% VBR 👍.

I honestly thought that GTS was going to be the best racing game out there, but it has turn out to be a nothing game due to PD poor game design decisions.
GTS does not come even close to being as good as GT6 and GT5.

 

[user3392345]

Its realy only a shadow of itself. In gt6 you where able to drive on the moon, the damn moon! In gt-short you have...ääh... blue moon bay

 

[simsimsheree]

You had three (IIRC) time challenges in GT6 for all the time and effort PD wasted on their Moon Rover section. No racing, no online... You also had the Goodwood section, once again, no online.

PD are specialists in wasting their time and our money. Take rally in GTS. More of the same.

It's about time more of us stood up and said out loud the king has no clothes on. Graphics dolling up an inferior game in every respect compared to GT5/6 should not impress anyone. But it's amazing to read how many think GTS is a step up.

You know what the best thing PD could do is? Port GT6 lock stock and barrel to PS4. Same graphics, same handling, same FFB and pedal response, same cars, same tracks, same online. Add back Shuffle if they wanted to spice things up (being the most missed thing from GT5).

It would outsell GTS by an order of magnitude.

 

[user3392345]

Would be so awesome, a gt6 remaster for ps4, true 1080p, locked 60fps + full 32 player grid.

I've recently been daydreaming of a GT5 Remaster for PS4, with all the extra content & features of GT6 (especially the physics). GT6 was the worst selling game in the series, whereas GT5 sold very well indeed. Many people felt that GT6 was just GT5.5, so it would make more sense to do that way imo.

As regards GTS; I'm waiting on the promised tyre model update, & hoping against hope for some FFB improvements for non T-GT users. At the moment I feel forced into playing the game with a DS4 as the FFB is that bad, but am still managing to have little bit of fun here & there amongst all the head banging & cursing!


🤬 🤬 🤬

 

[CBH]

GTS is definitely a prologue game. GT7 will be the real game to play whether it is on PS4 or PS5.

Gran Turislol

[user3392345]

Yesterday i finally deleted that crap game.
I feel free now and i am a happy person again LOL
For now, when i want to Race i play assetto corsa, when i want to drive arround i play horizon 3.
Wreckfest also is awesome!

Why limit the wheel selection for the MR Kei cars and allow just about every available wheel, for the FF Copen?

 

[DriftMethod]

I hate the updated track limits at Brands Hatch!

 

[PzR Slim]

Why in this day and age when you don't have a suitable car for an event do you have to come right back out to the home screen and then enter the dealerships? Why can't you be taken straight to a list of compatible cars to purchase straight away. Gran Turismo: The real wasting my time simulator!

I think off the same reason why the bmw e30 isn't available on dirt tracks, because they are weird idiots LOL

Oh, didn't knew that. Hope now its not random like in Sarthe...

 

[baldgye]

What are they?

 

[racer_xis]

What are they?

You can't use much of the outside kerb on turn 3 , also you can't cut as much as before the inside kerbs of turns 6 and 7

That is very disappointing. The whole point of that run off is you can run wide, but you'll only loose time.. to loose time AND to then get a penalty is bad design, imo. This is why it was on of my favourite tracks, you could push really to the limit, if you go over the limit you simply loose time off-track. It was all or nothing, now it seems all or nothing and you might as well retire from the race


I'm curious about how 6&7 changes will impact myself, will have to give it a blast this week. Cheers!

Honestly, I was abusing the old limits at turn 7, so i can understand that. Turn 3 and 6 were unnecessary in my opinion.

Even with the new track limits, Brands GP is still better than all of the Sainte-Croix tracks combined. With all the possibilities for a new track, we get this?

I’m beginning to get fed up with this game now , another update that’s taken off all the records in the mission challenge’s and liecene tests ect . I am not doing any of the older ones again , why can’t pd just leave it alone and put our times back how they were pre latest update.
