I love the game but can someone explain where the damage is? When I go into online or arcade I can damage it a bit but by far not from what I've seen.


Where are the sparks and mechanical damage? I heard it'll be unlocked but how so? Will it tell you: DUDE YOU UNLOCKED THIS, GJ MAYNE!

Just a tad confused, thanks for help!

ok, so, you can damage your car but do not expect anything "big", sorry. Except, perhaps, if force yourself in every wall.

also, for the mechanical damage, they are absent or so minor that u do not see them.
also,
from gameinformer :

As much as this game has nailed its overall vision, it's a franchise that needs to stretch out its horizons a little bit. This has been the case in the past, and GT 5's attempts to do this are uneven. Car damage has been requested for years, and now that it’s in there, I find the way it’s presented strange. You unlock it later in the game, and up until that point the damage is cosmetic and slight. Frankly, however, its absence in the beginning of the game only meant that by the time it started to matter, I was past worrying about when it would show up. I suggest you keep some money handy, because rebuilding your chassis isn’t cheap. Or better yet – don’t crumple your car in the first place.

also, I saw somewhere that sony saied damage will be implemented later in the game (!) 


No. Sony said damage will be unlock in game progress (lvl 20)... and new damage fetures will be implemented later.

And the new patche coming Dec 1st  for unlock damage feture in Arcade Mode like the others modes... and a lot of others things.

You can unlock damage. When you reach Level 20 and also click and read this.

Now thinking... How many reviewers reach lvl 20 before write the review?



Also in case you didn't know damage will cost you in repairs, repairs are very expensive. If you continue to damage your car your car will lose performance.

Haven't you heard playing it for 1 hour to 5 hours is the new rule right now. Lol!

Well, I am not too fond of the game reviews so I'll  buy it regardless the score but not right now. Gonna wait for a reasonable price because I have other games that I have to buy first.

one of my first race was with Ferrari F40 on arcade AND I already saw damage ... so ?



Time to Work !

THANKS GUYS!

 

Ill try to reach A-Spec 20 then. But I played online and arcade and I do notice damage.. just not THAT much. Well thats great news then imo :). Just in time for my Logitech G27 on 1st Dec :D!

Online is reaaally fun.

I played GT5 on the swedish game thingie called Gamex and I saw shitloads of sparks and the damage was easier... So I guess thats what comes at lvl 20. Great, I was worried they removed it or something. Awesome!



About leveling :

Is it me or it is TOO fast ? I m already level 12

I played close to nothing on Aspec, didnt play bspec
and only finished the B lisense (gold) and played half of the kart/nascar/topgear stage

that is not a lot to my eyes and alrady level 20 !



Time to Work !
