***The Official Gran Turismo 5 Thread***

Hold on so we have a confirmed release now for the 24-11-10

I gave up looking about it, but looks like it's time to dust of the DFGT(and the PS3) get a pre-order in and buckle up :)

Bit like how you drive an F1 car at full pelt in F1 2010 and just lose a front wing?

Whenever I went into something at full pelt in F12010 the whole car was wrecked, front wheels flew off, brake ducts flying everywhere, nose disintegrated etc.

This is into a wall mind, not another car :p

We haven't seen any internal damage in the GT5 video's yet, so clearly we haven't seen the extent of it all.

I'm a fan of having options.. there are times when no damage is a good idea, but in the main, you need damage, it's much truer to life and if done well gives the motivation to drive well knowing the consequences of driving badly has repercussions..

True... I did clout the wall a good un at Monaco in F1 2010 and the screen when slow mo and the wheels and the front wing went flying, but I also remember clouting the wall at the same circuit with the side of the car, and I got a few scuffs - if that'd been more realistic i'd have tore the side of the car to bits..!!

As Demon says - we don't really know what to expect. but I do hope its better then that vid of where the cars looked to have melted..:eek:
 
think some people around here need to learn how to squelch/block other posts rather than slander other posters

Every post is "imo" as everyone has a different point of view - but it doesnt need to be stated every time, should be taken as read that its only an opinion

cant wait for GT5 , can finally enjoy my 30 " dell monitor (even if the res wont be at full max)

Trouble is if you don't say "imo", people seem to take it that you're saying a fact, not just an opinion. Just imo, of course:D
 
Nice to come back after the a weekend away to see there's a release date.

Just ordered it, and by way of celebration added a G27 wheel to the basket at the same time!

Can't wait.

Anyhow, I hope to drive clean laps and win races other then smash the cars up.. lol But I can see why you'd want to see cars destroyed. Seems its in our nature to smash stuff up, games such as these allow you to do just that.. Until you try it and you just bounce off with a dented front bumper and your bonnet pops open and thats it...

Shame...

Oh don't get me wrong, I'm not the type to buy this game for LOLs and to smash up the car. I'm just a bit dissapointed that as a loyal consumer to the GT series and after 4 years of making this game with big promises, missed release dates and the likes, it should be as advertised, the Real Driving Simulator. For 2010 and the time this has had spent on it, I would expect nothing less than the best physics and damage engine to date of a game. I'm not complaining for the sake of it like with a lot of people on this forum about new games (COD threads anyone?).

I simply expect more than a "burnt" car with a dented bonnet when you 200mph into a wall or another car come to that. Damage is directly linked to realism in GT. Being able to "wall rub" (bounce or rub round walls for speed advantages) in previous titles has become acceptable on the basis that nothing else could compete with GT. But 2010 is here and it's time to put these niggles to bed and deliver perfection. I'm actually expecting to be dissapointed with this based on internet rumours, but I won't judge until having played it.

I expect Codemasters damage engine to be far superior than whats in GT5 - theyve had a lot longer to master it using the EGO engine. Im not preparing to be disappointed just for the fact it will be the first GT with a damage model anyway :D

Guys do you think its time to get this thread either locked or everything before the final date announcement deleted? I want to get a list of PSN IDs together so we can start thinking about the MP! Having a 50+ page thread before the games out seems unnecessary and I doubt making another thread would help...

ps3ud0 :cool:
 
I too am expecting to be a little disappointed with the game, as its been in development for such a long time that its simply just not going to be all that we, or I expect.

The physics and handling need to be 100% spot on, as when you look at the track listing, well its not really giving anything we’ve not seen before. Therefore I am hoping that the physics and damage model is up to par with the development cycle.

GT games have though always started slowly, as in you trundle around in a 100bhp shopping cart, unlocking licenses and moving up the field to the 600 +bhp behemoth skylines (JTCC or whatever its called over in Japan). I’m hoping the game follows the same formula as lets be honest, that works as once you get into the better class cars, the sense of speed and sheer excitement GT games have given once you get into the top class cars is and has always been very rewarding.

So, it we’ve got this with updated physics and superb crash model with the already fairly good handling, then GT5 should be good. But, as been mentioned, reading some internet comments, it might falter in the wake of Forza 3. Now lets not get into a Forza3 v GT5 debate…. However I’ve played Forza 3 to death and I think it was a very good game, so GT5 needs to be exceptional to not disappointment me after such a long development and being very impressed with Forza 3. On 24th of this month, all shall be revealed hopefully and I can make my own mind up as to how good the game is and has it been worth the wait.. I really do hope so…

I’ve already sold my xbox360 as it RROD and MS replaced it FOC and so flogged it as I got bored of Forza 3. As good a game as it was, you do bore of them… Wait and see eh?

Surely you just make a MP Arranging thread as well?
 
It's going to be awesome, seriously guys just the list of cars and tracks was fine for me. People seem to be concentrating more on what isn't in the game rather than what actually is in the game. There's 1,000 cars and granted there's a lot of variations of Skyline's, Impreza's and Lancer's but that's true in all the GT games, it didn't stop them being any less good. Same with the tracks, all the tracks we know from GT will be there as well as a few good real world ones, who gives a **** how long it's been in development? Chances are whether it's amazing and genre defining or simply a good solid racer with sim aspects, people will still hate on it purely because of the perceived delays of which we have had what, 1 official delay in the EU region? People need to get a grip.
