I'm not that into cars

so he must be right



I play a good amount of racing games and I'm not into cars.



I like racers and I'm not into cars. It's a stupid reason to get rid of career mode though. Doesn't matter to me though... I'm not buying this game.

Lol. There is no point in playing a racing game if you are "not into cars". Why 100% online mandatory for Need for Speed and Gran Turismo ?

I agree, but I think a better balance would have been appreciated by a wider audience.

Single player is still a very large portion of GTS, and you do get to use the ride of your choice in many, but just like in the past, some races are regulated to a specific vehicle. I don't see an issue with the new single player format, and I believe with the enhancements to arcade mode, it is actually the best single player GT so far. I guess some people just need an area of curated events with labels like Endutance, GT Championship, and such.

As for the players interest in cars, that is definitly true about the younger generation. However, I think they could have had a simple tune, and complexe tune option. Like Kaz mentioned, all the old modifiers are still present, they just got rid of upgrading part by part, and simplified to a power/weight system.

In a way I wish GT was actually a way to train the new generation about how a car works, but with electronic cars right around the corner, and everything about the classic drive train on its way out, the world of automotives is a much different place, and is only going to move further and further from traditional parts as we proceed.



Stop hate, let others live the life they were given. Everyone has their problems, and no one should have to feel ashamed for the way they were born. Be proud of who you are, encourage others to be proud of themselves. Learn, research, absorb everything around you. Nothing is meaningless, a purpose is placed on everything no matter how you perceive it. Discover how to love, and share that love with everything that you encounter. Help make existence a beautiful thing.

People that buy a driving sim, typically are into cars. Surely. These type of games are known as car porn for a reason.


Is this taken out of context?



I like to play racers and i'm not into cars. I also like shooters and I'm not into guns. Still a stupid reason not to have a career mode.

I read this a few days ago and laughed. Honestly though just release more cars/tracks, for free, and allow offline saves and I'll be happy.
