GT for me is not only about super cars, motorsports and sports cars. It is about digging normal, mundane, real life cars that you like in real life. Mazda list in the game is extremely outdated, stuck in '03, '05, at best. And Mazda lineup made big improvements since then! If one think Mazda road car lineup is the same from '05, one is really not following real life Mazda releases. The ones I'm missing the most are 2010+ Mazdaspeed 3, Mazda 3, RX8, MX5, Mazda 6, Mazda 2, CX9. These models have completely new chassis, newer design and 2011 and newer models have skyactiv engine, transmission and chassis. There is a version of the CX5 in the game but an '05 model, not premium and they didn't even include basic info for the car (power, weight, etc.). There's is a 2003 version of the Mazdaspeed 3 (Japan version, very weak engine, outdated chassis, engine, etc) and there is a '10 Mazda 2 but it has no skyactive and its Japan's weaker specs. Mazda lineup in GT6 is a bummer for real life Mazda fans. Same for Nissan and Honda as well, lot of old cars from previous games, not much new stuff. Really miss a good '10 Mazdaspeed 3... Oh, well, game is awesome besides that and there's a lot to enjoy though.
Yes.

It should be Up on the Dpad if you haven't reconfigured your controls.
What a useful post, LOL

GT40 Mk1 @ Goodwood = EPIC!!!
Really missing the ability to map the RA menu to a controller - not being able to adjust the traction control (and 4WDtq, ABS, F&R Brake) while in game makes it really more difficult, considering the new physics versus GT5 (only needed TC 1 on high-powered cars with an controller).
Hopefully it's an oversight and will be added later in an update, considering it's available with an DFGT-wheel.

Wow. I've had my G25 for 5 years and never heard of this. Might try 670 myself.

MR in GT6 have massively over exaggerated lift off oversteer while FR and FF have none at all. So, if you're struggling with it, move to a different drivetrain.

I've come to the conclusion that the key to really enjoying the career mode is to pick a car/setup that is well below the max PP/HP restriction but capable of winning the race when driven really well.
This has been the case in every GT, because of the ridiculously slow AI.

Dat Stratos instability lol. I have the anniversary Stratos and it's mad, even on sport hard tyres. Feathering the throttle even on high speed turns that are normally flat out.
What? Surely they didn't actually remove that? Fucking hell.

The stratos kinda makes sense with it's tiny wheel base but it felt pretty much the same as every other MR car.

I dunno, for the low speed stuff, like under 45 mph cornering, it felt real nice and only oversteered as genuine punishment for poor throttle and steering control.
At high speed though, like the first bend of the CCE high speed circuit it would just step out with 75% throttle and minor adjustment on the steering.
Question time: how do seasonals fare in terms of the PP limit? I'm still on the main career and am competing with cars at 60% of the PP limit, and it's still too easy on the bends. The straights aren't nearly long enough to help the AI.

I dunno, but I flew past a TVR Speed Twelve yesterday and it looked pretty horrible. Big blocky steps on wheelarches and around the filler cap. I thought they'd fixed all the wheelarches... I guess not.
So far it looks like they have improved about a 1/4 of the standards varying from almost premium bodies to simply smoothing out jaggy arches.
Bah I was hoping it was just somehow this car.
Sorry I should have mentioned I still won the championship, but every corner was an adventure.

I'm going to interrupt all this legitimate auto talk to say that the Disqualified music is awesome.
Have you played the game? The NSX has about as much lift off oversteer as you would expect and there are plenty of FF cars with it also.

The Goodwood events really highlight how different each car feels. It's the same little strip of road every time, but it always feels like a new challenge. The old Ford GT is my favourite so far.

Put a few more hours into this game yesterday, mostly online and I'm having a blast. I was racing Bathhurst with some Aus/NZ guys, obviously not being familiar with the track I was way off the pace (they were fast guys so I don't think I'd ever have been fighting for a podium!) but they were really great with tips and generally being supportive.
After a few four lap races I finally feel like I have a vague idea where the track goes and it's a really great circuit, not one for racing randoms at I suspect as it's so narrow at points but with the right guys the racing is intense particularly through the top section.
There are a couple of negatives though. First up, connection issues. There was quite a few disconnects generally through the evening but also quite a few tiny pauses in game play. There was no visible lag on-screen everything just freezes up for a millisecond before carrying on as before. It's quite disconcerting at times if it happens mid corner!
Second up, the stupidly low payout. 'Nuff said.
Now, I'm off to get all stars in IB to get the prize car, the awesome
, and save myself
! I may be some time.

Oh snap
Yup, I bought the Shelby GT350.
My dad used to own a classic '67 Mustang. Nice to see it ingame.

I want to start turning down or turning off the assists one at a time, so I can feel what difference it is making. In what order should I start doing this?

Anyone tried driving the anniversary edition Lotus Europa S.2 '68? It seems to spin out at the slightest touch of my wheel, I've no clue how to control it.

I have a very important question.
How is the sound in the game? I have heard some comparisons with GT5 and it sounded better, but not as good as Project Cars/Assetto Corsa.
This is really important to me, deal breaker if not satisfying and great.

Comparison dual view with interior and exterior camera, of graphics and sounds, between Gran Turismo 6 and Gran Turismo 5. Its a lap at Nürburgring GP with Ferrari 458 Italia.

In this I think that GT6 wins with the new sky and lighting.

I didn't think it was too bad, just don't lift off mid corner and brake in a straight line would be my tips. Also stay away from the Lanica Stratos!

Tried doing whatever the B tier championship is and it was a real struggle. Would have thought I tuned it poorly but it was one of the anniversary, "pre-tuned" cars so I don't think I bothered.

WOW, the sound is almost identical, and GT5 interior lighting is much more precise.
The only thing better in GT6 (in this video) is the world lighting and skybox. Goddamn shame about the sound, it is vacuum cleaners all over again

One thing I haven't seen many people talking about is the damage model. It's there, it's subtle and I like it. I was doing a race in career mode ( don't remember which) in the Honda S2000 and I was racing clean with maybe some little rubbing against other cars on turns, and I decided to watch the replay. The hood and one side of the the car was definitely deformed.
Now the damage model isn't as good as Grid or Burnout and still, crashing head first into a barrier sounds like crap and doesn't do anything to your car, but the little damage model I saw, I liked.

Seriously. At this level of realism in the graphics, the engine sounds completely kill the immersion. I get more excited watching a 458's throttle being blipped than watching that replay.

GT5 shadows look like an absolute mess when you drive. GT6's visual package is better.
Sound is similar, I agree.
I'm surprised by GT6 vs asseto corsa in terms of suspension modeling and physics in general. They're actually very similar.
Console sims starting to match PC sims in physics?
