Could the reason the tyres sound so bad be because they are using cheap tyres? i.e. hard/hard instead of soft racing? There is more than 1 type of tyre model available in the game.

I get what you are saying however It made no difference in GT6 though..............

why has this no real single player campaign?, lazy developers, other well know driving games have good single player, again we have waited 4yrs for yet another half completed game?...grrrrr

I wouldn't go as far as saying "good" campaigns.

Dirt 4 has a load of randomly generated tracks for its campaign.
Assetto Corsa has a few races and time trials for a campaign.
PCARS probably has the better campaign out the recent racing games IMO.

I've started playing Gran Turismo 4. What a game! I've played GT3, 5 and 6 extensively and GT2 a bit. Not sure how I ended up skipping 4.

I'm thinking that GT Sport is unlikely to appeal to me unfortunately. I love the rags to riches feeling of the "story modes" of GT games, the online aspect doesn't do it for me.

Fortunately I've got Forza Motorsport 7 to look forward to! As a PC / PS gamer, it will be a new experience for me.

Went back to GT 6 last night for the first time in ages, it's still a bloody good game tbf
For those wanting single player career in GT Sport I suggest you play GT6 against "professional" AI, it's laughable...you are better off running hotlaps alone and just enjoying the driving that spending the "race" just catching and passing them

ONLINE racing is where it's at imho

Its true, but I too enjoyed what was said above, start with a civic and work up to the GT / endurance racing . I do race online , but only on PC as I don't have a wheel for my PS4 and I prefer a wheel when going online. I guess times are changing and the focus of console racing games are also changing.

I do wonder how much longer Forza has in its current form?

chris4652009 · 6 Sep 2017 at 10:04

I enjoyed starting from the bottom and working up as well, and no I'll be buying another PS4 (Pro) this time once my pre-ordered copy of GT Sport is in my hands

They did this with the last Sport pre fixed version though. Can't rememeber if it was before 3 or before 4 but either way it was almost a demo of what the following game was going to be like. I think i'll just wait for 7 on the PS5. Lol

I'm more looking forward to this than PCARS2 I think.

I have a feeling this will be a massive disappointment.... PD have lost their way. The competition has caught up and imo overtaken them.

I am playing GT6 at the moment too. The AI and especially the rolling starts are very annoying, on some tracks with a long start/finish straight, or races with 10 cars in it, you start a good 20 seconds behind the leader, and these early races have only have a few laps/3 minutes of racing to catch up! It's not racing, it's more a challenge mode of overtaking the AI who are driving around the track in neat procession. I really hope for a quite different game from GTS.

Looks like we're getting another BETA.

This seems to of gone quiet. I thought they said we would get a load more info during September and October in the run up to release?

chris4652009 · 27 Sep 2017 at 15:32

Project Cars 2 along with this on the way are going to keep me away from even bothering with Forza 7 for the time being .

DIABLO · 30 Sep 2017 at 10:32

The lack of GT Mode ruined it for me, that is what I loved about GT doing up some second hand piece of crap was great.

Thesnipergecko · 30 Sep 2017 at 12:27

I'm confused. PSN says released on the 18th but available on the 17th. Does that mean it's playable on the 17th?

I don't game online, is this pointless for me?!

Pretty much, no GT Mode and the "campaign" mode seems to be a series of missions like what you did for licenses in previous GT's.

Thanks for the info! Good job there's plenty other racers out soon.
