  1. Tracks: Red Rock Valley, Midfield
  2. Cars: All Premiums
  3. Engine Swap, Drivetrain Swap, Custom Rim + Tire sizes, licensed body kits, livery editor.
  4. Pause/Rewind/Slow-mo/FastForward replays + 2player replays in full screen mode (not split like in GT4)
  5. Porsche
  6. Get rid of NASCAR and karts
 
6. Get rid of NASCAR and karts

I have to really disagree there...that's crazy.

I really enjoy karts. My racing buddies and I go karting at Autumn Ring Mini and few other tracks often. We have a blast! As for NASCAR, I don't mind too much about it in GT5, we take that outside to an actual NASCAR game. So yes, we're Americans.


5. Porsche

(While I'm at it) EA has complete rights to Porsche at the moment, and has for the past several years. When the contract is up, Kaz/PD and Porsche would like to have their cars in the Gran Turismo series.
 
liverydecal editor, design your own graphic design for your car

And then go online with the swastika's on your car?
you just know it will be wrongly used, and that would suck bigtime, just like the n00bs in Black Ops.

In an ideal world, there is no censorship. Anything deemed "offensive" by anyone would be dealt with in a personal manner. If you take offense to someone painting a swastika on their virtual car, then tell them so. In an ideal world, humans wouldn't get so butthurt over these things, gain a little self-confidence, and learn to offend right back. After all, if everyone toughened up and learned to ignore trolls, then nobody would ever be offended by anything. Problem solved.

Besides which, if anyone on GT showed up to race with a swastika on their car, chances are the other players will try to ram it off the road. A group shaming is far more effective than censorship could ever be!

I just wanted to get that out of the way. For the topic at hand, it's a fairly simple answer. I would like the following out of GT6: include more tracks - a return of old favorites plus some desirable real world tracks (I vote for El Capitan, Citta Di Aria, Spa and Bathurst) as well as allowing for dynamic weather and daytime changes for all of them. Next, prune back the car list of all repeated and generally undesirable models* and remove standards, giving a roster of evenly rendered, highly detailed cars. Include Porsche - for the billionth time already, I find it strange niether Sony nor Porsche are willing to work around any contractual obligations, Porsche and Gran Turismo would go together like ham and cheese. They can't not know this.

Finally, update and improve customization/modification/tuning options for all cars. *The one thing about cars in real life is it's possible to take a boring econobox car and turn it into an amazing, pants-wetting weapon: if you're going to have bog basic cars, why can't we properly hot rod them? Where are the engine and drivetrain swaps??? Why can't I choose between a super or turbo or all motor aspiration for all cars? Why can't I twincharge, or choose how many blowers or turbines I'm using? Why can't I increase the displacement on all of them, like I bloody well can in real life?? Why can't I swap in any other motor that would feasibly fit? For the case of a game like GT, all the parameters you would need to do such swaps is the size of the engine vs. the space allowed in the engine bay - numbers that probably aren't too hard to work out. I'm sick of blanket upgrade packages with arbitrary power increases, I want full control over every aspect of my car; just like in real life. Plenty of other games have done it, surely Kaz and company can figure something out as well.

Other than those most glaring points, they can sew up little detail flaws and glitches and so forth, but most of that will probably be fixed during GT5's lifespan. All the other stuff like B-spec and the course maker and whatever else people are complaining about are pretty minor compared to the aforementioned points. It's all down to the cars and tracks, how they're presented and how much they can be manipulated by the player. All the other stuff is fluff, and frankly if they fixed those fundamentals but didn't change anything else, I wouldn't care.
 
Besides the ability to gift cars. Why don't PD let us put our cars (which we wants to rid off) in online dealer..so when someone buy that car, we get the money.

Also the option to save games on certain laps of Endurance races. (ex: 100 laps - we can save at lap 40 or 50)

That would be awesome. They should put that in an update for GT5.
 
1, less cars, get rid of the likes of the Prius, any car in the lightweight cup etc. Id like to see only around 500 cars, all premium.

2, Instead of spending the time making a track like cape ring, how about a real track like Spa, Sebring, Road America etc?

3, day-nights/weather on all tracks

4, more customization on setups of cars etc

5, get rid of B spec as half the game

6, quadruple the amount of races in "A-Spec"

7, Class racing, (think Le Mans)

8, do away with NASCAR and Daytona, its the most boring spec racing series there is.

9, DO MORE STUDYING OF SOUNDS, ESPECIALLY MUSCLE CARS, Corvettes should not sound like blenders.......

10, As long as only a handful of cars are available at a certain time, Forza will be better.

11, if the grind isint somehow fixed or done away with, I WILL NOT BUY THE GAME, GT5 is boring beyond belief because of the stupid level up system. This is where GT5 fails, this is where Forza 3 is a much better game.
 
Get rid of B-spec

Improved AI, damage and sound

More A-spec races

Class races

Premium cars only. Scrap 800 standards and make another 200 premiums

No levelling system

Bathurst

And that would pretty much make it the perfect game
 

About Porsche:

'EA Games' has an exclusive deal with Porsche, making them the only publisher allowed of using the Porsche brand in games.
That's why we're not seeing Porsche in Gran Turismo, and can't complain to PD about it.

Also, why the hell would you make licenses required to progress? Why should I need to do something we all currently have the option to do, including yourself.
I think it's great that I don't have to do those damn licenses, and I'm not even a bad driver. If you wanna do them, DO them!

And last but not least:
Go play GT5 and be happy about it.

And for all those saying "remove this and that"; why!?
Does it hurt your gaming experiences that others are having fun with NASCAR for example? Personally I couldn't care less about it, but why remove it from the game? It wouldn't make it a better game.

If anything, I would want GT6 not to have less features than GT5 - not like they did with GT5, taking away features that were present in GT4, like a FF/RW function during replays.
Also, why are we still seeing SO many "extra clicks" in the menus? Purchasing upgrades for a car is more bothersome than ever, having to click through all those damn pop ups.
And why in the lords name did they introduce "car delivery"? I really can't understand the need to create a new, more bothersome way, of giving cars to the player. Why not award the car after the race, as in GT4, and have it delivered directly to your garage?
Some of the menu features seem idiotic at best, just like the way they handled paint chips, just for the sake of creating a false longevity in the game, but making it MUCH more troublesome to get the car painted in the color you want.
And what the hell is up with their premium choices? Seems like they had a monkey randomly select cars from a list to make premium.
And motor sounds are still recorded at a vacuum factory.

Agree on this. All the other things in PD - Nascar, B Spec etc..let them in GT6 (I love B Spec). Only added which is not included in GT5 (Endurance save, online buy-sale cars, manufacturers races, brake upgrades etc)
 
More tracks American tracks and F1 tracks!!! Endless events so we don't have to repeat them just to lvl up and more F1 cars:)
 
GT6? Maybe they should finish or polish this one a bit more.

My number one request for GT6? Put the fun back into it.

I like GT5 overall, but there are glaring oversights which really bring the fun factor to an all time low for the GT series.

The BS controller support is bothersome as well. (Really PD? WTF?) One of the most popular best-selling wheels is NOT fully supported? Ok. Next.

More tracks.

More cars....not just umpteen iterations of the same car. It's a cheap way to get the car count up, but come on....Really?

A non suck menu. Current menu is horrible.
 
Naturally being an Australian i would love to see Bathurst in there more Australian cars like Holdens, I'd love to see V8 Supercars in there aswell.

But basicly all i want is to see the things mentioned above plus much better sound quality and all cars being premiums.

I agree with everything here BUT i would rather they remove Nascar and the ****** cars such as the Prius or the Move or the Primeira etc..because they will most likely need time and labor to update them and i would rather they spend their time and money on real GT stuff. Less cars, more exotics.

I really dont need 1000 cars if 60% will be rubbish or just a variant of a car that is already over represented..

But yeah, car delivery, paint chips, used car prices and motor sound were all done by a team of government employees.
 
1. Get rid of the level system or at least fix it. I gotta do 9hrs Tsukuba 3-5 Times to unlock 24hrs of Le Mans? Who in the hell came up with that, thats sadism against customers.
2. Fix the imbalance of car prizes vs unsellable prize cars
3. Finally, after all these years: Implement a real, challenging AI instead of retarded race driver zombies.
4. Fix the broken tuning system, bring it back to GT4 status.
5. More interesting race series and championships, GT5 doesnt even use all the tracks it has in championships.
6. More real world race tracks, especially old ones like Montjuic and Solitude
7. Only Premium cars
8. More varied and interesting car selection - I d love to see old F1 Cars from the 60s and 70s
9. Fix the technical issues (shadows, track details)
10. A real damage and crush engine. The "thud" in GT5 crashes is embarassing.
11. Focus more on driving race courses, less bwahooha like rallye, nascar, foto mode etc
12. sounds! GT5 still has horrible sound

Overall: Focus on bringing back the fun in the gaming aspects of the game.

But since some of those faults are in the game since at least GT3, there is not much hope that they will ever fix those things.
 
i would love all the cars from the older gt's+gt5 because it be more awesome (horrible grammar i know) and with at least 1 car from each generation or year of every car (preferably the performance version) in the game be premium version and every track that was in the older gt's+gt5
 
how do i like? lol but except for the nascar part that is actually fairly fun especially in the rain or at night races lol no lights or windsheild wipers lol
 
Im getting a sense of Dejavu again with this thread. Almost the same feeling years ago before GT5 came out. I know this is just all opinions but it's pointless. Kaz is gonna put what he want's in the game no matter what we say. You can make as many wishlists or whatever, it's not gonna make a difference.


Im really not looking for GT6 to be much more than 5 honestly, just more premium car and more tracks. To be honest it hasn't changed much in 10 years so i don't know why everyone is expecting this huge change from GT6. Kaz even said himself it won't be perfect for another 20 years. So i think it's time to stop with these "What i'd like too see threads". IMO..

GT6 is ages away i gather, but here are the things i would like to see
No Bikes
More clearer description of what works and what doesn't i.e Before the release of Gran Turismo 5 they said that premium cars would have fully working dials, okay so how come most of the odometer doesn't work or in the case of the 04 Honda Integra doesn't even light up, or in case of the mini and Audi R8 displays some random number that never changes.
Have an odometer like in GT3 and GT4
More races per level, same level amount, so no grinding needed
i.e Level 1 6 championships, Level 2 9 championships, right thru to level 30 where each level has an enduro from each track, Level 40 has 24 hour enduros for every track in the game.
Get rid of reverse tracks and instead add more as in Bathurst, Pukekohe, and so on
Keep the car quota to a maximum of 1100 where at least half are premium where everything works, not like in my roadster where the fuel gauge in the cockpit don't work.
Less double ups The civic isn't a bad example of double ups, but the mazda mx5, miata, roadster is a shocker, less of that.
Licenses just gain you exp,
 
After reading the posts so far I think what PD should spend the most money on is QA.

All the cr#p features/bugs in GT5 that should never have made it to the final build should be fixed/deleted and PD should focus on producing quality.

With GT5, there seems to have been no thought put into allocation of resources. They spent god knows how much time implementing swithceable lights and windscreen wipers, only for the low beam to be too low to ever use and the wipers don't actually do anything! Where is the value in either of these features? Also NASCAR was done half as#ed, as was weather, rally and numerous other features like the Top Gear Test Track and racing modifications. I would hate to think how much time went towards these features rather than adding a few more tracks or premium cars.

PD need to develop a plan for a brilliant game (which GT5 should have been) and stick with it. Don't stuff around with gimmicky addons that, if anything, only make the game look more incomplete. Instead, just stick to the plan and produce a quality product.

We all know Gran Turismo is a brilliant concept and its about time it realised its potential.
 
I don't want anything from GT6 yet... I'm perfectly happy playing GT5 thanks!

I'll worry about GT6 when there is actually a release date :rolleyes:
 
Are you kidding? We all have different expectations. Do you realise how childish and moronic you sound? For all it's flaws, GT5 is a great game. Are you honestly saying you've never bought a game that turned out to be crap? Buyer beware, no one forced you to buy GT5. So that doesn't give you the right to demand that GT5 is patched to meet your expectations. If you don't want to buy GT6, then don't buy it. Simple as.

First of all, thanks for violating the AUP. Classy...

Secondly, no doubt you are copying and pasting this reply to 50% of the traffic on this forum, most of whom, like myself, believe that, when we got 30% of GT4's events, we were shafted. I'm sorry the thought that some of us (quite a few, apparently, from even just this thread) don't feel that this is a GREAT game. It's not even as good as GT4. It's prettier, sure. But it's not as good a GAME, IMO.

Actually yes, I HAVE bought games that turned out to be crap. And, you know what? I've felt just as justified going on THEIR forum and informing them of that. And if some of the members don't agree with that, well, that's their right. But the laundry list of great features from the previous game missing from this one is almost the entire thrust of this forum's content in one way or another. You've got your work cut out flaming them ALL...

The fact that this and innumerable other threads here detail just how disappointed many of us feel after being so happy with GT4 (let's face it, who WOULDN'T be happier if most of what is actually possible to incorporate into GT5 as a patch on this list wasn't done?) shows how few agree with your assessment of just how 'great' this game really is.

All I want is the RETURN of the axed features and structure that made GT4 a truly great game. Not your 'wait six years until PD reluctantly give them to us at the cost of another $60'.
 
I hate nascar, its just stupid how sensitive the car are and the challenges are terrible. Online play is not all that it was cracked up to be. Also I don't understand if a player is at level 13 say...... don't offer car on the used car You tried. List higher than 13. And when your at level 24 don't list a tonne of cars at level 1, 2, 3, 4...... give us cars we can use with lots of options please.
 
I want the Cugnot Steam Carriage to be in the game now. And as a prize car, not purchasable.
Maybe they should even include an upscaled version of the 1672 steam car (prize-exclusive as well).
 
I want GT6 to be this.

Cars : 2000 premium quality with better quality sounds (GT5 premiums are good enough modeled for GT6). Having Porsche in game would be amazing, more F1 cars, and iconic race/road cars.
Tracks : Current track list + a few oldies and a bunch of new ones, Spa is a must have.
Game : I like the idea of Test Drive Unlimited free riding around a large island, but with good physics and sounds, GT6 could pull this off, though i doubt they have the time to do it.
Physics : I would hope they can improve on areas such as the brakes and the quality of the force feedback, more fine car setup (tyre temps) needs to be implemented, and downforce/drag needs to be more accurate.
Weather : Taking what they have done in GT5 further, needs to be on all tracks.
Customisation : More aftermarket wheels, paints, bodyparts. In the real world many cars can have a large ammount of modifications, it would be nice to be able to truly customise our cars, but it's probably low on the list of things.
Menu : I'd love an actual garage in game where you could walk around and look at your favourite cars, obviously you can only fit so many cars in a garage, but the idea would be good. perhaps a massive warehouse for your huge collection ^^.
 
The island free riding idea would work well for a part of the game but obviously there should be plenty of traditional events as well. Also DRAG RACING DAMMIT...
Manuals for both GT2 and GT4 claim to have it in the game...and then I become disappoint.
 
I want what GT5 should of been.

AngloAmerican
 
1000000+ Polygon car models, more freedom in track creator(so we can recreate real-life treks); Better weight/driving style/ fuel consumption algorithm; time multiplier in B-spec; random events; better sound improving spacial awareness; easier/faster tune/test workflow.

These are just right off my tired friday-night mind.
 
- A lot more events, series and races in A-Spec including Rally, F1 and NASCAR.
- Rally, F1 and NASCAR endurances.
- Much better AI.
- Full list of premium cars.
- Better background image, need to be high res like Forza 3, e.g. Mountains, etc.
- More cars and tracks.
- Improved online multiplayer (if possible).
- Get rid of the Car Delivery lorry. Just show me the car and then put it in the garage! Like GT4.

Particularly important things for me is bigger A-Spec and better AI.
