Gran Turismo 6

Paddle shifters on the wheel itself. However you can get a proper shifter for it.

I do believe it works with computers too.
 
my initial thoughts after playing - ofc have not seen all there is to offer since no way I am close to having completed the game. got IA license so far and up to Goodwood 3rd series (seems getting gold is fairly easy on first try, and I am just an average driver - only one I had to redo several times was the Aston One 77 - that car is a handful - understeers and doesn't brake)


1. Likes

- still stunning graphics, perhaps even better than GT5.

- track list is awesome; hopefully DLC will add some more real world tracks

- removed the used car dealership which was lame to begin with. now you have just dealership and select the cars

- Vision GT - some cool original concept cars you can purchase - al least the Merc for now

- you can mod car and buy parts when you entered a race (don't have to leave race and go through all menus to GT auto)

- no more XP grind or B-Spec nonsense

- seems no more 24hr races - I don't mind 2hr races (even can stretch to a 4hr) but anything above was ridiculous imo

- fewer loading screens


2. Dislikes

- engine car sounds are bad, this was expected; however I didn't expect the tyre squealing sounds to be so annoying

- too many useless cars - ie x amount of Mazda roadsters, Nissan Skylines etc... can't tell the difference between the versions. it's filler and a waste

- seems no more Ferrari F1 :( instead we get a moonbuggy WTF !

- livery editor - basically non existent. still need to collect paint chips to paint cars :(

- coffee break/goodwood/moon events are a complete waste and I wish PD would have used that time to concentrate on quality over quantity

- AI still dire

- not a fan of PD making in-game credits a DLC commodity. makes me think grind or cough up. probably explains why we don't win as many cars for finishing/winning events like we did in GT5

- The T500RS - seems the R1 and R2 do not work in menu - shocking oversight since this is the official GT series wheel. hope this is patched ASAP. Also the "on the fly menu" is no longer there (menu where you could adjust brake balance, TC etc... during race)


I haven't tested seasonal or online racing yet

Can't say if car handling is better since the cars I have raced so far are cars I am not familiar with

Overall I am enjoying the game (except ear piercing tyre sounds) if you liked GT5 then GT6 should be up your alley. I friggin love Bathurst, that track is a blast

2. Dislikes

- engine car sounds are bad, this was expected; however I didn't expect the tyre squealing sounds to be so annoying. Worse, the sound is diabolical, worse car sounds in game for a very long time.

- too many useless cars - ie x amount of Mazda roadsters, Nissan Skylines etc... can't tell the difference between the versions. it's filler and a waste. While there are load sof duplicates there are still loads of cars, way more than you would ever need, like shopping it's easy to ignore the stuff you don't want.

- seems no more Ferrari F1 :( instead we get a moonbuggy WTF !, hard to care really, sure there will be a Red Bull added via dlc at some point

- livery editor - basically non existent. still need to collect paint chips to paint cars :(, Paint chips suck but really dont care about the livery editor

- coffee break/goodwood/moon events are a complete waste and I wish PD would have used that time to concentrate on quality over quantity I really like these events and break it up a bit

- AI still dire nah it is better than GT5 just not amazing

- not a fan of PD making in-game credits a DLC commodity. makes me think grind or cough up. probably explains why we don't win as many cars for finishing/winning events like we did in GT5 You would never know there is microtransactions in it, it never ass you to buy, tells you to buy or is even noticeable on any of the main screens, if you are having them this is the way to do them

- The T500RS - seems the R1 and R2 do not work in menu - shocking oversight since this is the official GT series wheel. hope this is patched ASAP. Also the "on the fly menu" is no longer there (menu where you could adjust brake balance, TC etc... during race). Matters if you are using this otherwise shrug, i'm using a Driving Force GT and it's excellent.


This game is harder core than Forza and in many ways a lot better but I have both and am more than happy to have both.

A lot better imo than the online experience from GT5.

I've created a multiplayer thread.
 
I agree that the coffee break and moon events are pointless. I don't pay any attention to them. However I do like the good wood events. I think they're pretty cool.

I've not even clicked on the coffee break or Lunar event thingys.
GoodWood is a bit Meh!
Online is brilliant though, lots of little tweaks to the way things work
 

Buy lots if mervedes vision gt car. Delete game data patch. Disconnect Internet. Reload gane. Sell vision gt cars for 333,3300 million credits. But the game only let's you have 20 mill at one time. Go buy cars. Sell next Vision Gt. Buy more cars.

When you have bought enough and balance of 20 mill turn off gane. Reconnect Internet. Reload gane and download patch.

Backup your saved game. This is a glitch I cannot guarantee your save game file. PD could patch this any moment and ban transfer of cars from 1.0 to 1.01 so this might not work much longer. You must have disc game not PSN version.
 
Thanks I think I'll stick to the 30k a minute one, a lot more straight forward and a lot less likely to earn a ban for doing it!

btw does anyone know if we have endurance races in GT6?
 
There was always a troll prize car somewhere. In GT4 I remember there was that circuit around a town on a hillside and after 2 laps you won a Toyota SUV rally car thing worth 350,000 credits.

Although maybe not back in GT1 as I remember doing the Sunday Cup over and over to earn enough to buy a Castrol Supra :D
 
Anyone else finding the tyre physics completely BS in this game? Every single car goes side ways round corners like rally cars including race cars such as the Audi R18 TDI '11
