IGN: Where In The World Is Gran Turismo?

[Marks]

I love Gran Turismo but there's a ton of changes I'd like to see for Gran Turismo 6. A while back I thought about making a thread for Gran Turismo 6 ideas. Here's what I'm thinking:

- Overhauled B-spec mode where your driver isn't a frickin retard. I'd like to see more command options for how to guide your driver, and I want the AI to be better as well. And the commands should actually work. Like when I say "Overtake" I want you to use whatever means necessary to get ahead of the car, whether it be taking the inside lane, late braking, whatever! I've lost B-spec races where the car my driver is using has 3x more horsepower than the competition because he doesn't have a damn clue how to overtake people. And as soon as I say overtake or pace up his attitude goes to red and he spins out every corner. Its a fucking joke.

- An actual track creator, not a track randomizer. I thought when I heard GT5 would have a track creator that it would be a legit creator like a toned down version of ModNation racers...but no its a fucking randomizer, you have no control over the shape of the track or anything. I want to be able to make massive tracks with big straightaways, ridiculous corners, hills/jumps, etc. and be able to share those with my friends. If I want a track that's just a 10 mile straightaway so I can max out a Bugatti Veyron why shouldn't I be able to? Yeah its unrealistic but its fun and that's what games are about.

- Overhauled dealership for buying/selling cars. I want EVERY single car that's in GT6 to be available for sale from the start of the game. Can I make that more clear? I don't get why there's maybe a couple hundred cars that are for sale in the dealership but the other 800 or however many are in the game you have to hope/pray randomly pop up in the used car dealership! Please Polyphony make every car available for sale. And if you ignore what I just said, at LEAST make cars vital to the game's progression available such as the Polyphony Formula 1 car in GT5. How am I supposed to beat the Formula 1 race if I can't fucking buy the car for it?

- The second part of my above point is that I want the selling of cars to be overhauled. In GT5 99% of the cars you try to sell say "Cannot be sold, remove from garage?"...well that's bullshit. You should be able to sell any car you want for money. And they need to fix the value system for selling cars. If I buy a $100,000 car and race it once then don't need it anymore, I should be able to sell it for an amount close to the original purchase like say $80,000. But if I used it for a long time and put 50,000 kilos on it then maybe it drops to just half its original value ($50,000) and so on. Right now as it stands I could buy a car for $100,000 and then never use it and decide I don't want it but its value has dropped to $18,000. WTF?

- All cars on the same level, none of this premium/standard shit.

- Whatever happened to the drag strip & test course for testing your car's acceleration/top speed like every GT game up until GT5? Bring that back in GT6 please. The 400m and 1000m drag were vital in helping my tuning skills in GT3/GT4, because I could play with all the tuning options and find out what gives my car the best acceleration.

- More tuning options. Forza has some cool shit like putting engines from other cars (from the same manufacturer) into a different car. Like for example I could put a Corvette ZR1 engine in my Cobalt SS or something like that. Also you can convert cars to RWD and shit like that.

- More customizing options. Decals, spoilers, body kits, rims, paint colours, etc need to be in GT6 on all cars. Yeah there were some options for premium cars only, but how about being able to customize all cars in GT6.

- Less copies of cars (30 Miatas, 40 Skylines) and more unique cars. I understand there are vastly different Skylines. The R32, R33 and R34 are all very different, but do we really need all the slight variations within these models like the V Spec, V Spec II, GTR, etc? Just pick the highest performance model from each and go with that. Plus please less Japanese cars and a few more cars from other places. America especially was underrepresented in GT5.

- Way more cars, both regular city cars as well as more performance cars. But like I said above I want more unique cars, not more copies. I love driving regular city cars and being able to tune them up to compete with more performance based cars.

That's all I can think of now. I had even more ideas back when I was originally thinking of making a thread about GT6.
