Hello guys, I know this is a long post, but you'll probably agree, and I want to hear al your opinions!

After playing GT5 for several weeks now, i'm kinda tired of it. Mainly because I miss a lot of things that were included in GT4, let me explain.

First of all it's the realy, REALY old cars: to name a few:

Auto Union V16 Type C Streamline 1937
Ford Model T Tourer 1915
Mercedes-Benz Benz Patent Motor Wagen 1886
Mercedes-Benz Daimler Motor Carriage 1886

and several more (please let me know if these ARE includes, and I somehow missed them). These cars waren't good, or fast, but that isn't the point. It was just realy fun to "race" with them against my mates!

Also Prosche isn't included in the game, witch is realy sad because they are one of the best known sportscarmakers in the world (I can almost hear u say: what about the RUF's then? But thats like a Amuse S2000, thats also a honda, but not realy.)

Some tracks are 'missing', first the one that realy should be in there:
the big oval from GT4, even if it was a 1on1 copy from GT4 that would have been fine. Also Spa Francoshamps, in the eyes of the F1 drivers the most beautiful and fun track on the calender (And because I am from Belgium). Silverstone, Road America, Catalunya, Shanghai, Albert Park (Melbourne), Circuit Gilles Villeneuve (Montréal), and so on...

Interior view! Every car should have it, even if it looks like the one from the PSP version! This is a big one in my eyes!

The Ferrari F1 cars that can't be driven in A-spec or B-spec. The word lincence has come to my ear but I don't think thats the problem, because if it were, the F1's wouldn't be included at all. And you where able to drive the F2007 in GT5P.

Challenges and licence tests are too difficult for the casual gamer with a controller. We would be happy with Bronze, but sometimes even that is way to difficult (pointing at the S. Vettel challenge). There must be a golden midway?

Than the difference in S & P cars. I know they can't make all of them premium but please let us buy them at will, not by luck in de UCD! Thats all i have to say about this.

A dragstrip. I know it sounds childish, but i want to know if my souped up M3 can beat a F40. I think al lot of people think this (once they read this thread that is). But it should be more of a game mode. Eg: you get your car and you can choose what the opponent will drive (would be nice if it could be one of your cars as well) and than choose a distance (quatrer mile, half mile and a full mile?). And a top speed run mode (Remember GT4, both those modes were included!)

The engine sounds seem to be complety wrong in the replay mode. eg: when I drive my standard F40 aganist some stock mini coopers (or that class) they are ALWAYS louder than my F40 at full throttle, I don't get it! I once drove along in a real F40 and it sounded like a nuclear war behind my back!

And final Race Modifications! What a load of ****. More car need to be made availeble for this or get it out!

So guys these were my frustrations and I probably forgot a few. So please tell me your frustrations!! :) And to al HAPPY HOLIDAYS!
 
I agree with most of them. Some shortcomings really makes you wonder if PD people are stupid.

-The Paint system is total crap. I would be fine with having to pay to paint my car in any color i want from a palette of choices. But you need to own that paint AND you cant preview your car. WHAT THE ****???

-Not all cars can have the wheels upgraded. Thats OK for a Race car but since most cars are standard cars, it means most cars cant have their wheels changed.

-For the cars that can have their wheels changed, you have a VERY limited choice of wheels compared to : OLD GT2/3/4 and to Forza 3. Plus it seems that some wheels can only be changed to some cars. Again, WHAT THE ****? I feel like the game was developed by Brussels bureaucrats.

-The Price to Engine/Chassis rebuild. I think it's something like 50% of the value of the car. I wouldnt mind having to do it after maybe 5000 kms of track driving..but after 100kms?? WHAT THE ****!

-Buying cars : Why cant i buy the cars i want when i want? Sure it's fun hunting for a car...but not when : Most of the cars are stupid Japanese junk or Skylines/S2000/RX7 or when it takes forever for the Inventory to update or when the prices are just ridiculous.

-Prize cars: Why do we get useless cars or cars that we can not sell? I dont care about a stupid Audi Q7 prototype that looks like it was modeled in 1999. I also dont care about winning 500 different skylines.

-Tracks : as you said, we need SPA, we need Silverstone, we need Sebring or Road America.

- Race Modifications : It's a joke. Only 17 cars? Most of them are junk cars.

- Engine Sound : So they spent months bothering owners to record their cars for this?? My 458 sounds like a sewing machine.

- Replays : What about rewinding and fast forward?? I want to take a picture of the flame but i cant because my fingers arent 0.000000000001 sec fast.

-Cars : More European cars. Less Japanese cars. Bring Porsche.

-B Spec : Bob is probably as stupid as the team in charge of the Paint/Car buying process. Why do you brake on a straight line? Why do you brake when i give you the order to pace up???

Lots of things there but imo minor and no mention of one of the most glaring omissions.

-We need a way to save tunes for our cars and we need it badly. At least the old ABC system but ideally save to file and recall as needed. This should be a top priority imo.

-Abilty to race our tracks online with our friends.

-Full leaderboard system

-More otpions in restricting online races

-Turn cars which stop in the middle of the track or drive the wrong way into ghosts so the idiots can not ruin a good race.
 
The dragstrip would not be childish. The first test they do with the cars on top gear is take it to the runway for top speed test/drag race.
 
I agree but would like to add Bathurst, and Pukekohe and Manfield from NZ they would be wicked tracks, and no why odometer PD when the car does mileage, why does my AUDI R8 say its done 134,728 kms when i've only done 2 kms in it and still read the same when i've done 1,000 kms. More options with the hud
 
I agree with all of these things, its not a make it or break it for me. But it would deff be a great inclusion to the game!
 
There already is a thread about GT5 wanted improvements and the like here. Please search before starting a thread, thanks.
