Well, that sucks.

Yeahhh, this is not looking good.Especially with this internet connection requirement even for single player stuff.

But you would have to have internet connection.What if your region has a bad internet reception?Or your internet is down in the area for any reason?

Its not good for the player any way you slice it.

So this is the the result of four years of work........huh. Sony cut off the wrong racing studio last year.

Game is called GT "Sports".. with the sport mode being the focus.  What other game gives you an opportunity to earn an actual FIA racing license, recognized and valid in 22 countries? That's what real skills will do for you in this game.. it's the actual driving test.  Campagin is basically prep work for the real meat of the game.. sport mode, where races can matter to some as well as how good you are at utilizing real driving skills to win races, thus the online aspect where races and progress will be monitored.  With a game clearly focused on multiplayer, I see no issue with the "campaign mode".  Online focused was made known when the game was first announced. Thus the "real driving simulator" reign shall continue.   

Considering I got into GT with GT6, and I'm still working on it, probably for quite some time, I think I'll pass this. Nothing about Sport sounds especially interesting to me.

What region doesn't have internet? I think if you don't have internet, gaming is a lesser worry.

I can see why campaign mode might appear to be a misnomer - it sounds like career mode. But this is not GT7. I wish I could get an Uncharted Spprts with the only focus being the multiplayer component.

Okay, so they have fia license............but with absolutely none of the fia circuits. LOGIC. 

Online racing is far cry what from what you rink it is, since they are basically demolition derbies. This goes for nearly every racing game out there.

No upgrading cars, no dynamic weather, only 177 cars, with like half of them being race variant clones of already existing cars. Only 6 real-life locations. God knows what they have been doing for the last 4 years.

Smaller towns in remote places(even in developed countries), certain places in undeveloped countries.And you know, the other point you simply ignored, the one when something happens to your internet connection that makes you lose it for some time, which is more common than it should be.
