The little things...

[TheBigMan045]

Over the past few games PD have implemented some cool little touches. Post here the little nuances that you think are pretty cool, for example the guy waving a chequered flag at the end of the race or the way the lights come on in the Rocket

The little red and yellow arrows that warn of other vehicles might be use full for clean online racing.

On the R18 TDI, the 3 "lights" used to indicate place actually work depending what place you're in. I thought that was cool.

Another is the sound the different surface at the streets of willow race track, and the use of the skidpan

Just posted this in another thread so I will just copy and paste what I said there.

"Others probably already know this, (I'm a little slow in discovering things ) but in bumper view you can change the color and outline of your gauges. (Speedo and RPM)"

The man waving a chequered flag as you said is a nice touch, as is the man at the start of the Goodwood hill climb waving away from the start line. I also like the sound of the gravel/dirt hitting the underside of the car when you go off-road 👍
I cant remember anything else off the top of my head

All of the above.

Simple things can please me too. I like how if you take a little trip into the grass or gravel trap, you car becomes caked in dust. Used to take ages to get your car to so the same level of dirtiness in GT5 than it does in one simple offroad excursion in GT6.

That horrible, permanent throttle limiter has been removed when your trying to re join a track from deep in the grass/gravel trap. In fact you can rage your way through gravel traps now with very little punishment. Also, accidently dipping 3 millimeters of tire into a bit of sand on a corner exit no longer shreads 10mph off your speed.

All the AI cars have the same weight transfer under braking - great motion to sense in your periphery when screaming up to the next corner/judging braking points.

Also being retaken by the AI after a successful overtake - uber cool!!!

The colourable HUD when you're using the bumper cam.

I don't remember if this was in GT5 but the odometer on my El Camino works.

Well there wasn't an El Camino in GT5...

I've noticed that the NA Roadsters and DB9s use the same shell as the Premium models, just without an interior. I thought that was a nice touch for vehicle clones; surprised the FD3S, FC GT-X, GT-Rs, etc don't do this though.
I really love the menu transition to race, especially National A; feels exiting.
Also the From East To West - the East City remix from GT4. Love that track.

The odometer works in all premium cars.

i think on Rome when you go over the brick road the sound it makes is different.

GT5 had that too.

I was going to say this, but you beat me too it!

I thought that was cool too.

I saw one thing in replay mode that intrigued me. I am not sure if GT5 had this or if I was imagining. But on Bathurst as the cars zoomed by, the grass an the shrubs had quite a bit of movement as the cars passed by.
