What are the total list of options for the community features?

[TRLWNC7396]

I know someone has asked for the when, but I would like to know the total vision of all of the community features. I know I would like to be able to have relatives and friends I know be able to watch me race, and I know shuffle/random people races are highly desired.

So, how far will this go?

This would actually be one of the most interesting answers of all the proposed questions. Nice one.

 

[TRLWNC7396]

Thanks for noticing! I hope this is one of the bigger questions (at least eventually )

 

[JohnScoonsBeard]

Yes - even though something like this might not get asked I hope @Jordan or @Famine will consider expanding the breadth of some of the most popular questions to maximise the info from Kaz.

Cheers guys - a great idea. Hopefully Kaz could do this every quarter

 

[TRLWNC7396]

Or more often....

 

[Nato_777]

In conjunction with this as I assume it'll be part of the community features - will gifting cars, paints etc... be making a return?

For the record, there is no intermediary who will be conducting this as an interview or curating the questions for him to answer. Kazunori will review the questions as they are posted and select the ones he wants to answer himself, responding to it as it is posted.

Will Kaz be replying in the threads themselves right here on GT Planet? If so, does he have an account, & how will we know that it's him & not someone imitating him? If not, how will Kaz be replying to them? Will he give his answers to you, & then you'll post them on the news page?

@VBR I don't know yet; we're going to discuss that in a few weeks when the most popular questions are established.

 

[gitslautriv]

Very honest answers Jordan. I respect that.

 

[TRLWNC7396]

A FEW weeks? Wow... I was hoping to have him start answering next week.... Hmmm.... I guess we'll just have to anticipate!

Great honest answers there.

I hope you get to ask a few questions too though. Some of the popular threads have not been particulary well written and could be misunderstood. Maybe you could persuade some of the question askers to rephrase things. there's plenty of time to tidy things up or add a little to the popular ones without changing the meaning of things.

It would be interesting to find out if Kaz/PD/Sony will look at all questions or just the top 10 and how much the suggestion forums here or elsewhere actually influence future direction.

Hrm.... this sounds like it will be done after E3. So if this is true, could some of the non-sound questions, maybe some of the more interesting, more novel questions be given at E3, assuming someone from GTP will be attending? Well, and then there's the matter of Kaz being there or not. But surely someone reputable will be representing their presence there from SONY if Kaz isn't, and can respond to some key questions.

In any case, while this topic is a little broad, Kaz has laid out little hors d'oeurves of a very ambitious online build for GT6. I'm curious myself how much of it Kaz anticipates will make it into the game, and what goodies might have to wait for GT7.

 

[TRLWNC7396]

I think the biggest question in my mind is, will Kaz answer any questions that AREN'T highly voted for because they have been in the plan all along....

This is the one feature that for me caused me to loose interest so fast. In GT5 we had a very large community of members here at . I was loads of fun to be able to interact with people around the world trading and gifting. There are many late comers that missed the money glitch and it takes forever to grind away just to tune and buy cars. I believe the community at and GT6 as a whole would benefit. Maybe then we could borrow or share cars between accounts so that we could run the TTs when it costs more to buy and build the car than what the payout is for the TTs even if you get Gold on all of them.

Maybe give Kaz the ability to lock threads in that one forum, & give him a temporary account so he can post a reply then lock it. That way people can see the question in post 1, & the answer in the last post. If you did do that, might be a good idea to disable Start Conversation on his account, otherwise he'll get epic amounts of SPAM. Just a few ideas.

EDIT: @Jordan - Then move all the answered & locked threads to a sub-forum, so that they don't get lost amongst the others & people can find them easily.
