GT Sport | August update (new cars, new track, more)
- Thread starter kostacurtas
- Start date
Can't believe we're getting such a big update out of the blue. A real track too with the Red Bull Ring.
It's like PD are trolling the community. Last month we had weeks of teasers, this time Kaz didn't even tweet anything out. But so what, so long as we get these great updates.

This is great. Hope PD keep this up as this game is getting better and better. It easily has the best online racing in Sport mode but the extra content is going to make this an even better product.
Looks like the naysayers and haterz are getting shut up every month. A complete edition should be released in 8-9 months time.

I love the RBR circuit; it's one of those tracks that packs a lot into a deceptively short layout. Glad to see the Mk IV back, too.
Interesting that the track can apparently be driven in reverse as well. I don't recall this being an option for a real track before.

Nice but please get rid of that weekly sport rotation, it's boring for someone who plays a couple races every week at most.
Agreed, it was a change no one asked for. However,
Cool and unexpected track. I would love some more GT3 cars, those seem to provide the best racing IMO. I'm really expecting rain and Spa to come soon.
Dafuq? Really? I played for last time 3 weeks ago, but haven't read anything about changing to weekly.
It's a baffling change, yeah. Like 0 people asked for it.

Amazing update. Wasn't expecting anything for this month.
Finally the Amuse S2k GT1; just need the stock Ap1 and Ap2 versions now.
The red S2k interior looks so good.

Wish we could rotate out the old music tracks and add those they've used in the DLC trailers. They must have the rights.
As for the Red Bull Ring I missed it in GT6 but enjoyed it in some PC sims. I guess this means Spa, Silverstone and some other tracks built for GT6 are closer than ever.
Last stats I saw showed more people using Sport mode after going to weekly events. Although I agree at least one event should be daily.
I'd rather have Pikes Peak. Something we haven't seen in every game for 8 years.
Yeah, shame they didn't include the stock version.
Gimme the Silvia and spa next pls PD.
How is the game's single player? Got me a new PS4 after the last one's fan died. Playing Forza 7 on Xbox One but while I like the driving in that game, single player doesn't have the sense of progression of the GT games. I heard lots of complains about the single player of GT Sport and haven't had a chance to try since my last PS4 died. So is it better now? How is the single player experience?
IIRC, they've done this before (switch to a weekly rotation for a while). I think it might be an intermediate period while they come up with new daily races.
Isn't that Lancia the one that got a ton of flack in the GT5 days? It was a straight port from the PS2 GT to GT5 and I think it became a meme.
Edit:
My mistake... It was some Suzuki:

Wow what a surprise. They never teased this update.
Nice collection of classic cars in this. Plus a new track. Solid update.

Incredibly dull and boring imo. I bought GT Sport a month ago for 20€ and regret my purchase. This game is for racing game fans not for car enthusiasts. The car selection is very poor and the overall presentation mind boggling backwards. You can`t even freely rotate your camera wtf? Last Forza game I have played is Forza 4 and I think that game is miles ahead of GT Sport in terms of fun. Take my opinion with a grain of salt, since I think that Drive Club is one of the best racing game ever made.
You can get 20-30 hours to gol all the tracks, do the missions and challenges (whatever they are called). There is no 'car progression' (tuning, buying parts) as in other GTs. There are single-player leagues available (LOTS OF THEM), but I really dont think they are interesting as the AI is terrible (by terrible I mean: they are slow as fuck). Getting gold in all challenges was fun for me, after that I jumped into Sport mode (online races) that are really great, unlike other racing games, once you get a good Sportsmanship Rating (you can get it in 5-6 races) you will race with people that drive ~~politely~~. If you are one of those that needs to push everybody in the first turn you will get lots of penalties and will not like the game (and will infuriate other drivers). One thing I love in the game is the Scapes mode, where it is basically a photo mode but amazingly done, Ive spent almost 10 hours on that alone and I have to say I never used any photo mode in any other game. Almost forgot, but I think it has one of the best soundtracks ever. Car selection was kinda poor at launch but now there are a lot of great cars (I dont even have half of what I want, played over 100 hours total).
