^I imagine a child reads the noise and repeats it in a "monkey see, monkey onomatopoeia" type office cubicle. And their tyre wear software is managed by bars of soap.
 
finally people are demanding for A-spec races its about time i hop PD listen please the game career is too short

= fix the AI
= let us make our own races for A-spec and ill play this game for 10 years ahead
 
The B Spec isn't a bad concept, but the way it was executed was crap.

Instead of him being your partner, he ends up as just taking up half the game sucking all the glory from you. BSpec should never be a mode, just a helpful tool.

I think letting you race with bob is the most glaringly obvious thing they failed to do in GT5, the 24hr races really take their toll and if you could share shifts with 3 virtual team mates it would be awesome. In addition it feels like B-Spec is there just for the sake of being there, If it were to interact like this with your A-Spec career it would make it a much bigger and more important part if the game, so you wouldnt be levelling bobs to grind better but it would be in your best interest to train up you team to help you in your championship quests.
 
For 3rd spec I would like them to fix the online system, make something that works better. Yesterday again I was racing with some people I couldnt see for some reason (I know it's probably my router problem but still, it's not an old router and I never had ANY problem at all in any other game). Also when the the loading blocks online etc.. Offline I dont play much honestly, I dont see the point.
Another good things would be longuer seasonal event like 10 laps with faster car around interesting tracks (suzuka, spa, nurburg (less lap there obviously)). More use of reverse/rainy tracks on seasonal too. I found the b-spec event around spa/la sarthe one of the most interesting we had, I wish we could have some a-spec online challenge like that. More car restrictions on seasonal like SuperGT xxxpp, LMP xxxpp and so on.

"What would constitute Spec 3 ?", A second season in career mode, incorporating new tracks, many more race events than is currently contained. levels extended from 51-100, but the rate to reach each level the same as the first season. Adding newer production car models.

You can be cool, that wouldnt be :-) I wished the same after GT2 and nothing :-D

For me spec 3 MUST have these things:
- Much more options to find lobby that suits your style (pretty much everything that you can set in lobby, when you are admin)
- Possibility to make Manual transmission and/or cockpit or any other view as mandatory in lobby
- Possibility to don't allow some settings on cars rather than only ''tuning prohibited''. You know, like you could add turbo and racing transmission, but no fiddle with suspension setting.
- Possibility to ''copy'' or borrow your car for every person in lobby for one race with all of its settings etc. To easily make races with the same car.
- Possibily to send your settings to particular car via triangle button options in lobby.
- Possibility to make our own race series (not single races) and bring back event synthesizer.
- Day/night transition and weather on all tracks. (ok, thats a big wish)
- All GT original tracks back !
 
How about..

Loads of new wheels, rims.
Route X different setup.
GTR gt academy '12 car, the one that was in Dubai. with the red rooftop.
Oh and a nice NSX '12 gifted from PD.

I tell you, the 3.0 patch is gonna be a BLAST!!

Boom. Very well said.

Also, just scroll back through this entire thread and count how many of us are asking for Event Creator. It's coming to a crescendo now. C'mon Kaz. Do it. Doooo it.
 
improved damage and better car sounds, the sounds in this game are horrible. if they fix those things this will be the best game ever
 
Compete over haul off online section of the game, Joe public shouldn't be setting regulations for rooms, I should select what aids etc I want then the system matches me with people who selected the same, shouldn't have to go in 20 different rooms before I find one anywhere near what I prefer, that's the elephant in the room PD need to address first and foremost.
 
A better A-Spec mode. Even better than that would be an event generator.

Would also like the ability to adjust the options for A-Spec so I can mimic arcade modes pro difficulty with AI set to 10.

A-Spec races to include racing gear as prizes (I hate the seasonals with a passion).

Tweak the physics and handling. Improve car sounds.

Oh, please give us an option to turn off autosave

Spec 3 will never arrive. Coming E3 they will announce GT6. We will have to wait about 1.5 years (end of 2013).

I guess we will have to see.

Agreed. Unless PD really go one step further and blow everyone away with:-

  • GT6 is actually GT5 Spec 3.0
  • All standards are premium quality
  • Extra 150 new premium quality cars added to roster
  • All tracks from previous games added
  • New real world tracks added
  • Some actual rally routes added
  • Rally and NASCAR expanded, possible inclusion of other racing disciplines
  • Real racing regulations, qualifiers included
  • BETTER UI
  • All tracks feature dynamic weather/daylight
  • Event generator & a huge amount of new events added including all events from GT4 featured
  • Track builder enhanced - top down to build route - track widths - corner tightness/side view and rotate for elevation and banks - scenery user generated
  • Livery editor - uses png/bmp/jpg files as textures
  • Motorbikes, trucks, vans included
  • Graphics engine enhanced
  • Physics model enhanced
  • Online system overhauled
  • A and B Spec integrated (driver teams)
  • Ability to co-compete in endurance races online with friends (driver teams)
  • B-Spec online race through browser to output video feed of race
  • Engine swaps, better list of mod parts (multiple choices of air filter, suspension etc. - all branded)
  • Scenic routes of great roads to drive along (with traffic)
  • ...and I'm sure there is much more to come

I think this would be beyond the PS3's hardware capabilities, so if this is what we're getting (hopefully, sounds like a dream) we might have to wait for the PS4. Which could be a long time. A very long time indeed.
 
What PD should really take care of for Spec III is the physics difference between On and Offline. That and the sounds.
 
Basically everything in the "*EASY* things for PD to implement in GT5" thread. :sly:

Realistically/hopefully though:

-A couple of free new Premiums (or at least 1 'significant' car like the new 86 a few months ago).

-Maybe even a new free track or an alternative configuration or 24H/weather-ised 'current' track.

-Bug fixes and/or new bugs. :dopey:

-Hopefully better sound samples/mixing for intakes/modded exhausts or for certain cars like the modern V12 Lambos.

I wonder if PD feels they sound severely off, especially for the Aventador which we had to pay extra for!

After all, the V12 Vantage sounded brilliant! (Stock one at least, so I hope the sound guy/team continues to improve.)

-More paid-DLC cars/tracks. (Sad but inevitable in today's game market.)
 
@spunwicked you missed one important point.

· Realistic engine sounds.

I hear you - engine sounds do need some TLC. Some I find pretty damn incredible, but some are seriously lacking. The Sauber Mercedes is criminally executed in the sound department.
 
I think it will be released the Spc3 on Summer or on Autumn.
I would like the see in the Spec3:
-20 standard cars to premium.
-5 new premium cars.
-1 new track
-More A-spec events or event creator
-Wheather and day/night in every track
-Better engine sound.
 
A new realistic tyre model. Also a livery editor would be much appreciated. But I'd prefer for them to work on GT6.
 
Unfortunately I doubt we will ever see spec 3.

We'll never see it... PD is dead 👎

They missed it bigtime with this game and they'll never accept it or do something big to transform it... that's the cold true... :nervous:

I'm already waiting for GT6...

Eh???

What is it with the naysayers on this forum. PD have updated this game with about 3Gb of data, getting the fundamental's in place. Yet people still act like PD don't give a damn.

Its only been 6 months since Spec II, yet just because we haven't seen an update or DLC for 2 months, alot of people start to talk like its the end for GT5.

Do you think GT academy is something that can be done in just 5 minutes?
