3/4 of the cars I want to drive, I can't really drive because the audio sample is so....perfect.....that I can't bear even hearing it in the race prep menu let alone actually driving it.
 
I may have posted this already but... *deep breath*.. I am SO ANNOYED by the Chaparrals in the classic car races. Seriously.. get these stupid cars OUT of here! I mean, keep them in the game for curiosity sake but seriously I don't want to race against these things anymore. I'm so sick and tired of playing a classic car race and having these stupid things blasting into first place. Can I use a stock '63 vette? Nope! What about that cool new Firebird? Forget it. My gosh.. sorry I just get so mad at this game sometimes! I love it but so many things just drive me nuts. There are a ton of classic cars but the classic car series is just ruined with these annoying Chaparral cars.. :yuck:
 
GT was the leader. The M$ thingi was the loser/follower.

Yet GT6 decided to follow the loser's strategy.
 
It's just a game that fools like us buys to make Sony, and PD money.


I may repeat myself in this ranting blunter but anyway: (order not based on importance)

1. LHD on GB cars and RHD on Italian cars (and others)

2. KM/H inside some US cars

3. Bias towards Japanese market

4. 1999 car list

5. 1999 engine sound

6. 1999 career mode

7. 1999 Kaz mentality

8. Shadows

9. Flickering trees with square holes in them

10. Not enough Goodwood challenges - I would make them 50 AT LEAST

11. No 2-3 hour endurance races (or 24h but not a big fan of those)

12. Can't enable mechanical damage in career

13. Can't choose between Normal/Fast/Super Fast tire/fuel wear in career.

14. Can't create personal grids in Arcade

15. Arcade sucks

16. AI is slow as 🤬 AND often ram into you or make you spin

17. Blurry tachos and speedos numbers in some premium cars interiors

18. Inconsistencies all over - one premium may look better than the other, same with interiors, lights , tracks

19. Grids in career with FXX in front and Lancer in the back - you're only racing the FXX

20. No grid starts

21. No practice in race menu

22. No test drive in dealership

23. Paying for colors

24. Oil change may add up to extra 50hp - apparently factory oil sucks 🤬

25. Winning with stock Land Rover against Nissan r33 on Spa.

26. Headlights pointing upwards - admire the hole in the trees :sly:

27. Difference between high beam and low beam ? You see more trees

28. Cars with seamless gearbox like merc SLR act as if they had a manual gearbox.

29. No top speed, braking, 0-400 tests.

30. Stoppies, rolling over your car during braking

31. Zero communication with community
 
Chaparral is a Classic American Car Company so yeah they should be in the classic race events. The 2J was banned, because it had more than one power-plant when it debut. Just drive better and you'll win ... *poking with a stick*

I got a stock Shelby Daytona and won all the races.

And you must understand that it is a classic racing car championship, which does hint at you using a racing car.
 
I hate to bring this up but the sounds in this game annoy me the most,I've spent countless hours on games like NFS and Dirt just sitting back,turning down the music and voice audio, and just drive the car,I can honestly say that I have never done that with any of the GT games.Everything else I can deal with,but this is something that really just ruins the experience for me time and again.
 
Waiting weeks for an update and it being TOTALLY useless, unwanted, and unwarranted.:mad:
 
I still miss the hard golds (from the old GT's) .... they are so easy now
 
Every time i want to load the ghost lap, when doing my time trials in offline mode, i have no idea which ghost replay is which: absolutely no information about the car that was used in that replay.

Especially when i save 5-10 best laps with different cars and then try to guess which replay is with specific car....

This is all in the menu which you have when track is already loaded and you are ready to go.
 
Everytime I get a MR car it drives like absolute 🤬 that I sell it (the only good MR car I drove is the Mclaren F1 GTR).
 
I have countless complaints,.... Like a million dollar race car with $20,000 tires sliding off a dry hot track at 40mph.. Oh please! I can corner better in real life in my Jeep Liberty with 1/2 worn out off road tires! But my biggest complaint is....

Updates, I am so sick of updates. I don't have a lot time to play, seems every fricken time I have maybe a half hour for a couple races, I turn it on and some fricken 15 minute update just has to be done. I miss old school game systems, you could just play when you wanted. Like to smack the morons doing these updates all the time. It worked last week, it'll work today, leave well enough alone or fix things so the update loads 'on exit' like a PC does.

Bro, do you even 12C?

MR cars aren't awful.
 
I drive the MR Race cars, Evora, elise many other MR cars and for some reason all they do is spin. There are few exceptions (The LMP cars are ok with a bit of tuning) but PD got most of them wrong that they got right in GT5.

The only MR racecars that are really tricky is the R8 LMS trio and the Deltawings. LMPs/Group Cs act mostly the same as in GT5 but have better grip this time and I keep them all stock.

For street cars I find the F40 ridiculous, the Diablo GT2 terrible (Not because of spinning, it's all around awfu, not a street car either but meh), but not much else for spinning machines of death, the Stratos is hard to drive by nature and the Dino 246 GT is strangely floaty.

I agree, the engines are not at all realistic and the the tire squealing is horrid, it sounds more like a group of screaming scared smurfs lol

Use the Toyota 7. The AI is so awful they lose to it easily. I beat the Chaparrals with the Auto Union Type C too pn APricot.
 
I absolutely abhor the Red Bull races. They pay you a lot and all, but wow, I really hate those stupid Red Bull cars >< It isn't too much about the handling, I can get used to it, it's the AI. I try my best not to steer into them, I ram into the turtle in front, and the entire pack suddenly gains a speed boost! I'm just glad the events rack up a bunch of credits :3
 
OK so there are a lot of things to like because it has cars and tracks, but the things that I don't like stand out more. Why? because I just paid £40 for practically the same game.

There is a lot of tear up when turning the corners. Lot of pop ups and slow down. Some bugs here and there-a weird light on the right hand side in the first tunnel on Grand Valley etc etc.
Is there no one click install? Waiting ages for each little install.
AI is still terrible.
Standard cars still look terrible (e.g no holes on Mugen S2000 00 exhausts)
Exhausts don't glow red hot, this should be especially noticeable at night
Replays are rubbish with an even more annoying menu
Shadows still not fixed
Too many Miatas
Too many rubbish Japanese cars
Not enough epic European Cars (Who does their European research?) (Fire him)
Menus still terrible
Chase cam rev counter etc rubbish (GT5 was better)
I don't know what the tyre indicator means (No explanation) What does 10 mean? What is the optimum colour? Orange?
The body roll that was implied would be there just isn't, it's basically the same as GT5
They have changed the engine sound of the McLaren MP4 12C (To more accurate?) Sounds worse
Where is the McLaren MP4 12C GT car, it won the most races of the GT3 championship in its début year. (Not good enough for your game PD?)
Menu views of car is not very good. Not inventive or inspired at all
Damage still rubbish
Need to go in and put traction control off all the time. There should be an option to turn it off for all cars with one click
Tuning menu is still crap
Not enough car personalisation (If PD are going to leave out for example the SLR 722 GT then at least give un an editor to make something similar. Lots of other examples, the MP4 12 C has a few other versions now but only one in the game
the graphics really aren't that much better, it's very flat looking especially on the first 2 HD TV's I tried it on (Samsung then Sony) My Panasonic is a bit less flat thankfully



It doesn't feel as rewarding to drive as GT5. I can't explain it, but when nailing a sequence of corners on a track like Suzuka on GT5 felt so good, on GT6 it feels messy even when I do nail it.

I'm a McLaren fan can't you tell lol. Don't know why I don't have an Xbox and the new Forza whatever number they are on. Think the last one I played was 3 and even that was better then GT6.

This game is worth about £15. Hopefully a lot of major updates are coming.

I don't know if you realised but their is a body kit for the slr that can pretty much make it exactly like a 722 GT.
 
  • The 2013 Focus ST's Gearbox, to name but one of the faults of the driving physics with cars in the game
  • The manual shifting action in cars which are automatic, and the fact that manual shifts are done (without any clutch input from me, which is one thing that irritates me) in milliseconds.
  • The sound of pretty much all cars once given an uprated exhaust
  • The lack of cars we see every day (I'm not suggesting fill the game just with four-pot family hatchbacks, but a few more cars we all recognise - the odd diesel would be good)
  • The level of bias in favour of Japanese cars & gamers
  • The sound of quite a few cars as stock, one prime example being the Bugatti Veyron
  • The lacking range of 'different' events, such as more challenges, Goodwood events and so on
  • The AI cars' utter blindness
  • The PP system not taking cornering ability into account
  • FPS, FFS
  • The lack of Used Car Dealership
  • The utterly ridiculous prices of microtransactions
  • The existence of Red Bull cars
  • The damage system which still leaves a lot to be desired
  • The graphic imperfections, such as pixelation and rough edges on some cars
  • The lack of events for cars below 500PP in harder difficulty races
  • The lack of course maker, event designer, speed test, communication from PD or any significant updates
  • The ridiculous GPS mapper thing; I suppose it's good for about three or four people who play the game, but for the majority it's a feature that'll just sit there
  • The rather woeful range of prize money & prize cars
  • The grids in events with cars that vary far too much in performance (e.g. A Subaru in a race with mostly hypercars is out of place, I'd say
