I just read on the new section of the game, there will be another events change.

May 22nd @ 1 A.M. EST

Just thought you would like to know.

:)

I really hope they bring back Daytona Road and I hope they have Eiger there too.
 
I want F1 eiger :)

(If there were damage) The car will disintegrate as soon as it lands that first Jump :lol:

Edit: David Coulthards RB4 comes to mind, when he drove over that ‘bump’ a few races ago. *poof!*... where did the suspension go?
 
I hope they have been watching the quality of driving online and given us GTPers private rooms only :sly:
 
I saw dream, that there was privaterooms, long races, and Grand Canyon, Midfield, Trial Mountain, Cote D'azur, Nurburgring, and Seattle in the next update. Usually my dreams come true, so dont worry fellas.
 
Don't get your hopes up.

I could be wrong and I hope I am but... it's only going to be a change to the events online. No private rooms etc. Just different races.

Saddly yes you are very wrong. The news on the games specifically says a change to the events online. No private rooms, chats, longer racers, new penlty system..nothing like that. Just new events..
 
Maybe just new events this time around. But there is hope for the near future...I just read this on the "News" section, posted there April 3.

Vehicular Damage Coming to GT5 Prologue
April 3rd, 2008
Gran Turismo series creator Kazunori Yamauchi has announced during an interview with CVG that a “major update” is in the works for GT5: Prologue, and is going to include the highly anticipated vehicular damage! Other updates will include enhanced online functionality and “community building features.” We have known for some time now that private races and in-game chat have been in the works, with a realistic release date sometime this summer. However, damage may be a bit further off in the fuall of this, as cited by IGN. Stay tuned for the full interview, released tomorrow, where Yamauchi is expected to comment on the possibility of developing a complete Formula 1 title in the future.

-------------------
I hope and pray that "vehicular damage" comes to online races. I think that will put a damper on the punters and bullies, also sloppy driving. I'm assuming that any damage will remain and slow the car down for the remainder of the race. Similar to Need For Speed:Pro Street. (see my signature line).
"community building features" can only mean that there will be a way to have scheduled private races. Or maybe take a page from the Need For Speed:Pro Speed playbook and be able to have a custom race designed by an individual, and open to invitation only. The "invitation only" races worked out very well in NFS:PS. Just send invitations to your PS3 "friends" list. You could specify the track, the number of laps, PP level, penalties, cars allowed, ...etc. Would THAT be cool.
NFS:PS also has the ability for headsets to be used, so anything said by a player using a headset can be heard by everyone in the race. Actually, there wasn't much chatter. Mostly comments between racers who knew each other. But I expect in GT5:P that headsets will be used to comment about intentional bad driving...and appologies for sloppy driving. There is the occasional jerk using bad language, but very seldom.
 
Hey I am a graduate of Need for Speed: Pro Street too! I am the road king, :) All I can say Denny, these updates cannot come fast enough. Thanks for sharing.
 
I cant believe people compare features of an arcade racer to a sim like the gt series the two are worlds apart in being different. Just be patient as the features will be added to this, the series has never done anything wrong in a car racing game giving the right amount time.

Did it ever occur to you that maybe we played the game because it looked cool and it was fun? He never compared the two anyways. He was merely referencing something that has that same effect. Kind of like if I were to say Nascar has a damage feature, where if you mess up your car you will go slower. Same thing.

He was also saying how he thought the online features were cool.. I Sure didn't see any comparing.

I'm going to try out suzuka 600pp on the S2 tyres now. :)
 
Yesssss. Stock car time trials. No more dubious PP restrictions.
Spent the last few hours doing the F40, Evo X, and GT-R events. In the leader boards for now. Do you get a prize for competing in these time trials besides bragging rights?

Nice run we had earlier Racer.... shame about your outbraking error at Casio, it was a good battle up until then.

Oh, and loving Daytona Road 500PP to death..... it is brilliant. Currently tuning the Focus ST and the Altenza for them.
 
I'm glad they kept expert 600 and 750PP Suzuka (my two personal favourites :D)
F2007 Eiger TT? O_O Crazy! haha
