It'll be GT1 again. Every single GT game has been GT1. They don't change.

 

Yeah, they don't change.... except for the tuning options, tracks, cars, physics, reward systems, and online modes. How many of these GT games have you actually sat down with? Coming off that ignorant post, I'd say zero.

 

 

1,2 and 4.

 

The changes between games are on the level of a patch. The fact people keep buying each version says a lot about the attention span of the masses.

 

I played first game to death, I bought the second and was bored within hours, it was near identical. I skipped 3 because was just a graphic update, and I bought 4 long after release second hand for about £5 thinking the series might have changed enough. I was the same game near enough, graphic update the biggest change.

 

You can't be serious. GT is a racing sim, what kind of overhaul do you expect? Even if they add damage, it will still be for the most part the "same game" as you put it. The level of tuning options were huge improvements from GT2 > GT3 > GT4, and the tracks also improved. Even with GT5P's online, why in the world would you mention that they've all been the same game. GT has always been a racing sim, so the only way they could improve the series is by providing more options and "realism" with each iteration. Are you hunting for a gimmick?

You're argument is the same as saying "every football game is the same, you kick a ball into the goal... except this year, it's more realistic".

 

They could...oh ...I dunno...change the progression system so you don't do the exact same thing every game, and I mean change the actual system, not just how the menus look?

Add new game modes instead if the same standard long-since-become dull-and-boring ones they keep doing over and over?

 

I really don't suggest comparing it to a football game, FiFa for instance. Buying those each year for such little change is a waste of money too.

 

As I said before, changes that can be made with a patch do not justify a whole new game. The GTA series has been mostly patch worthy updates besides the graphics when switching consoles.

Think about what you just said smartass.

That still wouldn't fix your "problem". GT is a racing sim. People play GT for the racing and gameplay, not for the "progression system". Your definition of "overhaul" is just a gimmick. If you find racing boring and need reason to unlock cars and progress through the game, then you clearly have no clue what you're talking about and are playing the game for the wrong reason. Regardless, with the exception of GT4, I was well satisfied with the game and improvements made from the prior versions.

Changing the "progression" of the game has less meaning than improving graphics (the second biggest aspect of a sim), and yet you think that's supposed to make things "different". What you're asking for is a new gimmick to distract you from actually playing the game.

Come up with a better example to back your argument next time.

As long as PD keeps improving their signature detail to the licenses and improve the gameplay (which I think needs alot of improving), the game would be worthy of new sequel. That's the entire point of a racing sim, to be more realistic with each iteration.
