Yeah...Gran Turismo 5 has sensation effects for the time. Still way ahead the majority of other racing games (for pure completeness).

In other news...Lake Maggiore is a sensational track to race on. Just going through the Mission Challenges and completed a stonking GT3 race there with my Mazda Atenza GT3. I mean, this is brilliant track design and gameplay. Lake Maggiore is the best fictional track I've ever raced on, period.

What an experience.

 

[leehom]

Downloaded the pre-order bonus on one system and the limited edition bonus on the other. Ugh....is the info saved in the cloud?

Is custom decal uploading online yet? Where is it?

Not yet.

Yup. Driving Lake Maggiore with the Ferrari 458 Gr.4 in one of the demo online races pushed me from "eh, maybe" to "oh yes". Well, the kart race helped too. I'm not sure I'd say it's my favorite fictional track, but it's a joy to race on.

A bit disappointed so far, there just isn’t a whole lot to do.

How did you already run out of things to do? What have you done?

 

[TheMan]

Yeah, but remember that's only one review. Hopefully others may have better impressions or expectations.

impressions from reddit indicate that the only driving mode in VR is 1 vs 1 (AI), 2 lap race. That's it. You can't even do fucking time trials. it makes NO sense. I would have been totally satisfied with a time trials mode, I really can't believe they let that shit out the door.

Seems easy to add so i imagine it will be. Should have been there day 1 though.

I played the demo 20 hours jeezus.

Are you connected to the servers?

Sorry - had to as I'm not buying this post

Destiny 2 thread is that way!

Completed whole driving school tests etc. in approx 10-15 hours.
i don't have Playstation Plus, and now i'm just looking at screen and thinking what to do.
Nothing
The game shows you nothing if you don't have Playstation Plus.

Worst spent 60$ in my life.

Wait, this was GT5??

 

[Brandon F]

Part of racing games charm is how each iteration improves graphically. A remaster is a racing title outside of something cartoonish like MK or Crash is kinda pointless IMO. I dont think it would sell well at all.

I mean have you played a Motorstorm game?

I'm not hyper-defending this game, but I doubt it's the worst $60 you spent in your life if you played it for 10-15 hours already.

Ummm arcade mode? You can do custom events, you can do split screen. You spent like all day playing?! It just came out and you already spent 10-15 hours? Man I’ll be lucky to get two hours in tonight.

 

[AstroNut325]

It was in a trailer but I don't think the actual game looked that good.

 

[CrayToes]

Is there any way to play Sport races with friends?

 

[Shaneus]

Jesus fuck.

Come home, put the game in, it wants to download a 12gb update. And of course I can play it but can't get online without said update.

Looks like it's going to take 9 hours to download at around 500kb/s. My internet is capable of getting 20 times that. Fucking PSN.

 

[Askia47]

Waiting for the 1.02 Update to dl now. 4 hour wait....

 

[Peterthumpa]

Has anyone posted this yet? Shows off rain and fog!

https://www.gtplanet.net/first-look-rain-fog-gran-turismo-sport/

Jesus, GTS' engine sound and stiff chase camera are beyond pathetic. And I like the game.

 

[lowhighkang_LHK]

is there anyway to get the update to download if I'm away from ps4.

I do think I have it in rest mode and auto updates set to on.... but I could be wrong.

 

[chubigans]

Put it in rest mode. It speeds it up considerably.

Yea, i can get onboard with scapes...

 

[Codeblew]

LOL! But seriously. The game has been out for 19 hours and he doesn't have anything to do?

 

[Stripper13]

Hey nice touch. I received a gift car for my birthday (a few days ago). Didn't expect it.

Damn, I knew I should have gone home at lunch and started the update...

Put it on stand by mode, makes download speed faster for me.

Is this your own shot from within scapes mode??? Interested to know how you managed to concoct such an unrealistic shot when the scapes setup makes it so damn easy to have a car lit correctly to look like it belongs in the image?

 

[AyraSutoraifu]

Some shots.

The last one, just like real life.

 

[bloodforge]

I didn’t say I had nothing to do there just isn’t much to do.

 

[kriskrosbbk]

What an epic intro and what an awful music.

Just randomly tweaked things till i liked the look of it, regardless of if it looked *right*.

 

[Cjdamon042]

This looks like it's from an action movie or something, Christ.

Cars obviously give it a way a little but still!

 

[watdaeff4]

Have only played a couple of hours - the Driving school and the challenges.

After playing Driveclub, Forza 6 a shit-ton, Forza Horizon 2 and 3.......I'm enjoying these little bite-size challenges so far. Granted, the "staying power" may not be there, but I'm enjoying so far as well as the progression system it has set up.

Going to go get crushed online here later tonight.

 

[Shock32]

If you have the game digitally and in rest mode. Go to the store and queue up something to download. Like a free theme for example. It should pick up any update.

 

[Wolf Akela]

Looks like I won't be playing tonight. Can't trust the bloody couriers at all. I have no idea why my pre order doesn't let me just pick it up from the store.

for many GT fans, meat has always been in time trials... now you also get awarded by doing them. In GTP I spent several hundred hours just doing time trials.

Of course, once you learn tracks, then obviously Online is next. You can also practice for events.

I don't disagree, it's just that this is my first GT since getting the GT3 PS2 bundle many moons ago.

 

[travisbickle]

If you can play 15 hours non-stop of GT on day one I’d suggest buying PS+, the online is implemented really well.

 

[Lord Error]

Jesus, GTS' engine sound and stiff chase camera are beyond pathetic. And I like the game.

You can change the chase camera settings to be very stiff, very flexible, or anything in between.

 

[cakely]

All right, patched up and running. Feels good. I'm trying the motion controls this time around and they seem to work surprisingly well.

Quick question: I heard that you can edit which songs will play in the background by going to your library, but, once there I just see a list of songs that I can play, but not edit. Any ideas?

What type of connection do you have on your PS4 a WiFi or ethernet????


My WiFi is much slower on PSN and the router is in the same room... so I use ethernet cable its 100x faster for downloads and online games!!!

 

[kriskrosbbk]

Folks where should I find the Sportsmanship chapter exactly?

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

Where are these settings located?
