The only measure of quality you can use is the useless metacritic right?

As a sim GT is still better than FM. And that is what matters to the most customers that have kept even GT6 at over 5M, while FM needs a lot of luck to even reach that.

And on money scale, a game with 100 people involved getting out every 3 or 4 years and selling near 10M does more or less money than a game with 300 devs releasing every year to 5M sales?

Because the only real solution is increase the PD staff and make better management, but that could as well kill the game... in case you don't know ND also take about 4 years per game. The interval only see smaller because they have 2 teams on paralel.

Drivatars and other ghosting tech of what your friends have done is what makes a real game, not just racing ai. So many dinosaurs in this thread, who don't want features like this in the single player portion of the game. Don't like it, go find an offline racer, if you can find one.

hhmm... that's weird. I mean, it's not going to stop me from buying the game day one, since no other racing game feels as good a GT to play, but I do wish there was more single player content.

I don't mind keeping GT offline only. But there is a reason for this to be GT Sport and not GT 7.

So they can play GT5/6 that are still good, or play Project Cars or even go to Xbox and play FM.

Just hope the online requirements don't burden the game further the line.

Im not suggesting the studio should be cut off.

And you are right: im 100% basing my worries in hypotheticals. But after reading several negative previews, with most of them complaining about the lack of content, there is a high, almost certain chance that critics will be punishing the game with low scores.

We should wait and see, and maybe revisit this thread after the games release.

Did I ever say "sim"? Nope. Even then, Project cars beats it in that category. I said driveclub will be the vastly better GAME than GT sport. That 10M was 7 years ago. Since then GT6 has only got 5M. How do you know it's well done if you haven't played the game yourself? Talk about hipocrisy.

Hm. Gran Turismo 6 sold 5 million? Hm...2013. It released in 2013? What happened in 2013? Hm...ugh.....what was it. Something happened....fuccck.. I can't remember! What was it in 2013? Hmmmmmm.... nevermind, guess it was nothing like coming out the holiday of one of the fastest selling consoles ... 

You know I wish that I could say GT dissapointed me again. But by now I doubt that's even possible. The tracks and environments look bad, hell the whole gamd looks bad except for the cars. GT5 had a butload of content to justify the long development time. But this game has less content than Forza 5 and now also the online only bullshit bandwagon.

At this point the IP is more valuable than the studio. Because the IP is being wasted.

Im not sure if its their biggest IP anymore and that doesent justify the outrageously long development times for what appears to be an incomplete product.

I wouldnt suggest closing Polyphany but the IP itself is not being utilized well. As its been mentioned, we are about to get the 5th Forza game on X1 and all have been good to great. People are already talking about PS5 but a proper 8th gen GT isnt even here.

Maybe GT needs a second studio to pick up the slack.

GT is a sim and that is what their public want. And PC is very bad sim in case you don't know, it get nowhere near beating any GT game. Saying Street Fighter is a better game than Mario (being true or not) means anything when their public is different? Nope. So your point is useless... again you are basing your point in an unreleased game, Hipocrisy? Nope I played GT 1-6 and know the quality to expect from GT Sport, so expecting it to be better than DC isn't hipocrisy, but since you brought it, how can you evaluate GT Sport to be sure it will be worse than DC for sure?

Yes GT6 "only sold 5M" show which other racing IP got it. Owww besides MK none.

The game aim is completely different and it was made from ground up on new engine, new assets by a team that is 1/3 of Turn 10.
