>With just over two months to go until GT Sport’s release, Kazunori Yamauchi has revealed more on the game. Speaking at the PlayStation Experience event in Malaysia, the series creator confirmed GT Sport will not feature microtransactions.
>Originally questioned by Gema Show Indo, Kazunori Yamauchi’s response confirmed online updates and DLC including both cars and tracks. When asked again for clarification on microtransactions, the response was a decisive “no”.
>For many players, this news will be a welcome change from GT6. That game introduced the controversial feature to the franchise, offering credits for real-world cash via the PS Store. These credit packs were only ever optional, and Seasonal Events made them far less tempting. But for some, microtransactions hint at the pay-to-win feel popular in mobile gaming.
>With confirmation of GT Sport abandoning such practices, players can rest easy. As a game focused on competition, it’s great to know players won’t be able to buy their way into the best cars right on release.
Too bad we live in an age where these kinds of promises aren't worth the kilobyte they're stored on.
How can such a game be so insanely beautiful?
>Online focused

Shame about the cars tho.
They'll probably ditch the classic GT card for modern shit.
God why is everything Bugatti makes ugly af?

>putting the GT logo on real photographs
2/10 almost got me
Y'all know those backgrounds are actual photos, right? It's only the cars that are rendered in photo mode.
But yeah, Polyphony does a fucking great job with their graphics. It's a shame their games have slipped in quality compared to Forza.

The LFA has got to be the most generic looking super car.
I bet you won't turn any heads crusing in that.
>>386778661
>most generic looking super car
that's not the arabian "super car" Devel Sixteen
>>386777327
GT sport will not feature any content either, what's the point here?
>>386778962
I retract my statement. Shit looks like a damn hot wheels car
I'm not gonna get it unless it's on PC.
>>386778962
I still remember the video of the guy polishing it and moving the trim, and putting it back before anyone noticed, that car is such a sham.
>>386778962
>1 windshield
LOL
>>386778661
>generic looking
No other car looks like the LFA
>>386778962

I could get the front of the LFA mixed up with the GT86.
how many skylines can i drive?
>GT6
>credits were easy as fuck to get, you got more money the more days you consecutively logged in
>earn millions for doing a few races
>optional microtransactions for casuals
>free updates
Everyone bitched about this and complained and whined about muh consumer friendliness
>GT Sport
>no microtransactions
>Sony can sell cars for £5 a pop
>collecting all cars in a game about collecting cars potentially costs hundreds
Everyone is fine with this and praises it even
What the fuck, /v/?
>>386778661
It's not the looks that will be turning heads, it's the sound. Seriously it might be one of the best sounding cars ever.
>>386778171
iirc GT sport has a 'photo mode' where you can pick certain backdrops, (which I believe are actual photographs in part) in which you can place a car, which will be rendered with the specific lighting specs for that scene.
So you're only part right, and also totally wrong.
Those indeed are GT screenshots.

Wow. Car renders on real world photos. Such a killer feature that NFS 2015 did two years back with live footage. Meanwhile the game looks like this in gameplay. Also lol Kaz lying about microtransactions again. He's probably seething iRacing is producing future champions while GT is producing low cost seat fillers and pay drivers who need Sony backing to get a seat.

Too bad it won't come to PC.
I bought a PS3 for Gran Turismo and MGS4 but I don't really wanna buy a console again for one or two games, especially since PC plays them better and I can use the DS4 on PC as well.

look at the filename of >>386778183 you didn't even notice it was from GT5?
>>386780163
I read somewhere that they brought in Yamaha to help them get that sound
https://youtu.be/F0m6dvpK4m8
>>386781508
It's a Yamaha/Toyota engine, Yamaha has been designing/building motors for Toyota for a long time.
Fucking great, the Sony marketing interns are finally got their paychecks
>>386777807
This. Screw this game and screw ps+.
>>386780998
Why would you want it to? Every other racer is coming to PC and will be superior on PC. PCARS 2 alone is racing GOTY.
I smell the DLC.
>>386782474
>pCAR 2
I know, I had it since 2015.
>>386782474
It's a Sony Falsefag.
>>386782668
Are the physics still shit? I cant race GTEs in RF2 and RRRE and I need my IMSA fix.
>>386782801
You mean handles like a fridge on wheels?
They are better than in the first game but I didn't really see fault.
You're not using AMD by any chance because physics are PhysX.
>>386781628
Oh yeah youre right. Im an idiot they make bikes. I forgot Yamaha isn't just an audio company.
>>386783283
>This fucking post

Pretty kek comment.
We all get brain farts sometimes.
>>386778962

So it's pretty much only Gran Turismo, Forza, and what else for mainstream racing games? Every franchise is dying.
>>386783763
There is still NFS, Crew, PCars, AssCorsa, wipeout, redout, >kart racersYou asked about what's out there, not about the quality of the games

>>386784132

Crew seems OK aside from being another drab open world racer.
NFS is fucking dead
>>386778962
Guaranteed this is what Joel Schumacher would want for the Batmobile if he ever made another Batmam movie
>>386779087
Source? This is the first I've heard of them just selling an empty disc.
>>386784478
I'm actually hoping I can get on Crew2's beta
>tfw only want to try the planes
Payback is just a reskinned The Crew, is incredible how bad they keep fucking up
>>386783763
Forza is strong my dude
>>386785085
Gran Turismo is strong too
>>386784368
>that 1st comment on the crew 2 vidya
The state of PC gaming lmao
>>386785124
>have insane amount of time and virtually unlimited budget
>the cars still sound like hoovers because the japs don't seem to get the balance between engine and exhaust noise
Fuck that shit, this and the fact that they postponed the game for a fucking year made me go for Forza and xbone
