Has anyone every though that GT5 has too many cars? Well i think so. They could have saved so much time by not including a skyline from every year they were made, and same with the NSX, and S2000, and lancers, and so on. I'm just saying i hope they don't put so many into GT6. Maybe at the most 1 old 1 new. Anyone agree or disagree and why?
 
I disagree as many of these "copies" are ported in so didn't actually take up much time. Also alot of those car's are liked by alot of people. I could stand the lose of maybe 5 of the Skyline/GTR's we have after that most of the model's are indeed unique. The only car's I can say should be out are the one's that are indeed the same car with seperate name's, just put both name's on the one car. If anything there should be more as there has been alot left out from past GT's.
 
I disagree, in my opinion it's definitely a case of the more the merrier. One of Gran Turismo's main selling points was its vast selection of cars, and it features many car not featured in other games.

I think, when it comes to the plentiful amount of model variations with little difference (Skylines and such), it doesn't bother me. At the end of the day, it's not like it takes a lot of time away from making any other car, seeing as the car is pretty much already made save for a couple of tiny differences. And it allows people who own a certain model in real life to actually own their own car in the game, not just "Oh, this is just like my car. But it's from two years earlier... and is more powerful... and has different bumpers". I do, however, feel they could implement these cars in a better way, something similar to Mercedes-Benz World Racing in which all model variations of the Mercedes-Benz line-up were featured (I.e., C180, C200, C32 AMG etc.), but they were bundled together as one car in the car selection menus; and you would scroll up and down to select the model variation. Alternatively they could do something similar to Test Drive Unlimited, where you buy the basic car, and then select options afterwards. Only in Gran Turismo it would be the model variation.

I think PD would be wise to take either of these ideas into consideration for GT6. Saves having a boatload of MX-5s, Skylines, NSXs etc. clogging up the car dealerships.
 
Nope I love the fact you can drive different version of a single car for example the S2000. I love my JDM S2000 (premium) however being from the US I drive my US version S2000 (standard) to get a better sensation.

I have brought this up within my circle of GT friend's in the past but it was more about engine package's. Imagine you want a 69 Camaro you would select the car then chose the engine that comes with the car, with the 69 you'd get a choice of 250cu.in (4.1L) inline-6 and 302cu.in (4.9L), 307cu.in (5.0L), 327cu.in (5.4L), 350cu.in (5.7L), or 396cu.in (6.5L) V8 powerplants. This would take up alot of extra work time though.
 
NO!!!!

Every time I play I discover a brand new car that is absolutely amazing. I wish it had every car ever produced so I could try them all. Can't get enough!!!
 
No, GT5 does not have to many cars. Otherwise, however will the number reach 1000 cars? :sly:

I love my Nissan SKYLINE GT-R V・spec (R34) '99 because I had that same Bayside Blue model from GT2.
I love my Nissan SKYLINE GT-R V・spec II N1 (R34) '00 because it is a standard car with carbon hood and carbon side mirrors.
I love my Nissan SKYLINE GT-R Special Color Midnight Purple II (R34) '99 because it comes in a special color.
I love my Nissan SKYLINE GT-R Special Color Midnight Purple III (R34) '00 because it comes in an even prettier special color.
I love my Nissan SKYLINE GT-R V・spec II Nür (R34) '02 because it is a premium car and I can see an interior of a Skyline.
 
Impossible. Could you have too many cars in your real garage? That's like asking if we could have too many hundred dollar bills. This ones been folded vertically, this one folded horizontally, but somehow I love them all the same.
 
I only dislike the fact that concept cars are featured. Unless those concept cars are drivable in real life, I don't see why they're in a "simulator".
 
Yes because we could take out almost 100 repetitions and add other models. GT5 need quality, not quantity. And I'm not talking about slow cars and "special cars," cars are cars, no matter if they come from WWII or have a tank engine on them.

If GT5 had a healthy list of 600 cars in which every manufacturer gets at least 15 to 20 models, this game would be more beautiful than it already is.
 
Never can there be too many cars. You say "quality not quantity". I'm guessing you mean quality would be full premium models which would only be approx. 200 cars. PD said "screw that" and gave us (almost) every car they have done. Of course we'd like full premium in every car. However they did what they could and then gave us everything else.

Now if you mean it may be overwhelming I just have to say I disagree. I am still finding new cars in this game and trying them out. Running across a new car I've always wanted to drive to finding a pure classic that I will never even see, let alone get behind the wheel of, to seeing a car I have never even heard of.

Yes other racing games may get certain aspects better but GT5 just offers so many cars and tracks it's just a blast. Complaining about too many cars is just such a weird thing to me. I don't even know why it's a discussion.

No, I'm just saying because of the large quantity of repetitions. I'm not talking about that premium-standar crap. I love the game how it is, and enjoy any car, no matter if it's a little three cylinder kei car, or a french-german-italian 16 cylinder exotic that does 1000hp. I'm not complaining...

Oh, and... chill the hell out.
 
GT5 doesn't have too many cars. What it does have is too many duplicates which need to be taken out of the game. I mean, look at the Skyline fiasco...and the all new Eunos/MX-5/Miata fiasco that actually developed from this game, that one is HORRIBLE...the Evo's are alright though because they're actually going from gen to gen which isn't so bad. But I'll say again, it's not the cars, merely the duplicates.

As more redundancies are written into a comment, the comment becomes more redundant, making for a more redundant comment.
 
Will I drive all 1000+ cars? Not very likely. Do I like the wide range of choice? Certainly 👍

I will say this only once: The standard cars are imported from previous games, they are already existing models. It doesn't compare at all with the time spent on making a brand new model. The time saved "by not including a skyline from every year they were made, and same with the NSX, and S2000, and lancers, and so on" is probably not enough to even make one new premium model.

I strongly disgree, I'm not the biggest Skyline fan but there's a lot of the standard cars that I really like and I think the diversity is good. After all, how decide which cars should be in there and who should not? It's better to include all, especially scince the quality of the models aren't suffering because there are more cars.

I agree with you on the repetitions. Having a different trim for the same car is a little odd. But they've already made them so why not go ahead and put them in the game. Yes they should have spent that time making other vehicles but since they have already made those I will gladly take them. Also I am drunk right now so don't tell me to chill out lol.
 
No there aren't too many cars. There is no such thing as too many cars in a car game. That's like saying that you have too much money.:lol:
 
Not enough cars and plenty of tracks. Let's hope they remove Nordschleife, Suzuka, Daytona, Le Mans, Fuji and Monza for a Dacia Sandero and the Daihatsu Trevis. The more merrier. The merrier the better.
 
the only thing that annoys me is the amount of skylines in the game and they continue to add more in dlc too. we do not need so damn many of one specific car. they could of added other cars in place but no, soon this game will have about 200 skylines
 
No, there aren't too many cars. Rather, I wish they did the "Skyline treatment" for non-Japanese models too. I want different engines, trims, bodykits, etc for all cars, not just the fastest or the "best" model for them.
 
I agree. To many of the same car. I mean, they can put in 25 -30 Skylines, but they leave out other great cars. Dosen't make any sense. Its ok having say 5 or 6 Skylines, as long as they are all different. But the list of Skylines is ridiculous
 
Too many good, varied cars? No. Too many duplicates, hell yes. At the very least they need to remove the cars that are identical except for name.

They're in there purely to boast about numbers but nobody needs them.

Exacty. You could take 300 odd duplicate cars out of GT5
 
Whats too many? Sheesh man!!! Too many? You must be kidding.. this game or for that matter any game can ever have too many cars.

If there was a video game with every car ever made you would not complain about that now would you? I sure wouldn't
 
No, the more the Merrier! (sp?) You'll never know what you might find in the UCD because there is 800 different (apart from duplicates of the Skylines and Miatas :p) cars you can discover that you never knew existed!
