Next Gran Turismo Will be a ‘Combination of Past, Present, and Future’

It's worth it. This was me trying it for the first time:
As with all PSVR stuff, the YouTube vid obviously doesn't convey the full field of view or the 3D aspect (which is a huge part of the experience), but it gives you a rough idea.
Like GTS, it just feels like a regular game making proper use of the PSVR to enhance the existing experience, rather than feeling like a glorified proof of concept or tech demo. It's great. Unfortunately, like GTS it also just makes you wish that there was more VR content within the game, rather than just feeling like a tease.
Yes lord. I'm ready to pretend GT Sport never was a full game and this was just a demo for an excellent online mode.
Just gimme proper engine sounds, VR, and let me convert road into race cars.
Even with "just" 300-400 cars, that's all I wish for.

There was a definite feeling of progression through the career mode. GT5 was good, but the career mode felt really disjointed and piecemeal in comparison.
yes!
this was my favourite :)
Whilst I have loved pretty much every GT there is something about GT3, in the atmosphere of it, with the sunsets and how the light was used in that game and the colour that set it apart?
Not only for Sim racing. Wipeout in VR is stellar. I hope we get more full VR support for games next Gen and PSVR2.
IIRC when it went from GT3 to GT4 they made most of the changes.
I don't remember exactly but everything just felt different, the presentation, menus, the way you upgraded your cars, totally different tracks (I think only Laguna Seca was a real life circuit in GT3, not sure there were any in GT1&2).
GT4 was like a reboot.
The thing is GT4 was amazing as well, especially for those more interested in the motorsport aspect. GT3 was always more open for the less "hardcore" as much as I hate that term.
I think it can be tough to go back to that though, not because of anything to do with games but more about how people feel about cars. People don't care about cars now the same way they did then, younger people especially are far less interested. Also, cars are far less cool nowadays :P

Fantastic news. Especially hyped that they are taking VR seriously for next-gen.
Can't wait for their next-gen reveal.

They're working on Deep Forest for GTS
Why Trial Mountain, Grand Valley, and Deep Forest Aren't in GT Sport (Yet)
If you spend some time looking around GTPlanet's GT Sport forums, it won't take long until you find a complaint about the track list. It's usually about what's not on it rather than what is. Every main Gran Turismo game to date has featured three core fictional circuits: Deep Forest; Grand Valley

This is true. My father for example told me when Lancia released the Delta Integrale HF Evoluzione... Everyone wanted that car.
Today is just not the same.
The Queen.
My serious choice would be the FD2 Honda Civic Mugen RR, my thirst to use it in a racing game is real.
There are Piaggio Apes in the background scenery of the new Sardegna tracks. So if PD can just make it driveable we'll have the best GT World Tour repechage race ever.
After spending years waiting for the first PS3 GT, and then years waiting for a much more grounded, focused PS4 GT, I'm actually kinda bummed that this development studio (that's been known to take their time) talk about a game with more scope again with a a new console on the horizon.
Please, whatever you do, release GTSport on PS5 as a remaster with the ability to use VR in all online racing and modes, and the continue to update it as you have been.
Once we get that to tide us over, sure, go ahead with the pie in the sky masterpiece that will get delayed over and over until we half way to PS6, but don't leave us with PS4 GT sport in the meantime.

Without good AI and a balanced difficulty a campaign mode is just a lengthy time trial where you cruise around and listen to the soundtrack. I really, really hope that they make an effort to give us actual racing in the offline mode. Otherwise it will be a slog to go through, just like before.
It's a pretty big disadvantage.
But when you're getting started out, you'll be matched against other new players so your biggest concern will be having a clean race.
Yeah, I just have no idea how to drive manual, especially with a controller.. and it's kind of tough for me to want to learn how. I'd prefer driving with a wheel if I had to do manual. I want to get online but I also don't want to deal with so many good racers that are destroying me with their manual.
I certainly hope it's online modes are not limited to Sport mode. While I loved GTS and appreciated what they accomplished with Sport mode, it leaves out many players who just want some quick casual racing fun (not via user lobbies).
I laughed.
The better players have wheel setups, it's just much easier to hold a sweeping turn with a wheel. Super GT did a video on it where he shows that using a controller ends up greatly increasing your tire wear.
That being said, the motion control option for the DS4 works decently. I recommend that you at least give it a try over using thumbsticks for steering.
Any interpretations on what Past, Present, and future actually means? Like what kind of combination is this? I understand present line, considering VR and Online, but what about past? Future i think more customization could be used
All you have to do is read through this thread to see the things many people regard as their best moments from the past.
I would die happy if they did a modern remake of GT1's intro for GT '7's intro.
Try it, i just started learning manual on a controller and it makes racing 100x more fun. Im using the gear shifter on the right stick. It will only take a few days to get the hang of it
People exaggerate their development times. Between GT4 and 5 was 6 years, sure, but in between they had Tourist Trophy, GT PSP, GT HD(this was their original vision for GT PS3 until it changed), and GT5 Prologue. GT6 was only three years after and GTS was to be three years until it got delayed. So a new GT next year or first year of PS5 puts it in line with their typical release schedule.
All the cars now are being made to be used next gen anyway so no completely starting over.
The long wait for GTSport was because Sony stupidly decided to create GT6 for PS3, releasing it a month after the PS4 had already come out. Should have been obvious to us transitioning their engine and development workflow from PS3 architecture to PS4 was going to take some time. PS5 will be backward compatible with GTSport anyway, no need for them to waste time on a remaster, and Polyphony already working on the next Gran Turismo for PS5 means they already have a notable head start compared to what happened with GTSport being in development only after the PS4 released.
Yeah, dynamic transitions need to make a return next-gen. I suspect VR forced them to go back to static conditions for PS4. Driveclub VR required Evo rewriting their lighting to a forward renderer, remove dynamic lighting and rain. Polyphony having to create different renderers for GTS at launch would have caused even more delays.
Depends on if the Track/car combination suits you. Managed a top 10 qualifying time for the Americas on a Saturday in the RedBull Junior a couple of weeks ago. And I drive full automatic. Also farmed my way to A+ DR spamming Autopolis with the Super Formula cars a month or so ago.
Point being, you can be fairly competitive even on automatic.
EDIT:
Also, if you don't have a wheel PLEASE try the motion control steering in the DS4.
I tried them and never went back. I refuse to play simcades using the analog sticks, which kinda sucks because I own a couple of them on pc. But I just can't do it. That's how good tilt controls felt to me. One day I'll get a wheel, but they're kinda expensive where I live, sooo.

HEHEHEHE where did i hear this before ?
R-RIGHT
HEHEHE
""The level of precision we've achieved [in GT5] is actually more suited to the next generation of machines. The detail that goes into a premium model [has] gone beyond the level of the current PlayStation." "
Lmao dont believe any of this.
Let me tell you this. Kazunori Yamauchi is never satisfied with current work. When PS5 arrives he wont again like cars they made and start all over. Supposedly GT5 and GT6 cars were future proof and they said premium cars will translate to PS4 but that shit never happened and they created all cars from scratch again.
Hopefully it was not just a decision they made because of online races. They absolutely need to come back to full dynamic and this time for all tracks.
Except they didn't build all cars from scratch for GTS. The premium cars from GT6 only received an additional layer of detail in GTS.
Proper VR support is the only thing that really matters to me. I'm ideally positioned for this; I have my PlaySeat + T300 + PSVR just sitting here waiting for something other than DriveClub VR and Dirt Rally to come along, and yet I never actually bought GTSport due to the low effort on VR support.
I wouldn't call it low effort. You have to understand that the limitations of the PS4 are pretty real, and I think they made an honest effort. By many accounts above, and my own experience, the VR experience in GTS is actually pretty awesome -- so much so that people only want more of it.
There's an episode in the new X-Files where one of the Lone Gunmen who now lives in a computer simulated world describes his existence, and he expresses something along the lines of "Everything looks real, but I can't feel the sunlight."
Well, I was using GTS with VR, in some regular car (not a sports car) on a track with hills and dips (I think Sardegna), and I can attest that I actually could feel the sunlight. There's something about the lighting that makes it feel really good. And once you've driven a few laps in the game with the car in VR, you will be pining for a complete game. So it's not half-hearted, but I would say "full-hearted, but there are tech limitations".
Both Driveclub and Dirt Rally made an effort with VR, but I feel with GTS, what you get is an experience that somehow makes the "simulation" feel quite credible. And I want more.
What I'm saying is, don't hold out on GTS VR just because you have some preconception that it is "incomplete".
