The delay is most likely a marketing ploy (by Sony not Polyphony digital) or something like the damage modeling is taking longer than expected. Whatever it is, we'll probably see a simultaneous worldwide release now.

Overall though, I don't see what all the fuss is about over it taking sooooooo long.

Think about it.

They only have 110 staff.

It takes, on average, 4.5 months to completely model a car, inside and out.

By my calculations it would take almost 4 years to model the 1000 cars alone, and that's not including time taken for track/scenery modeling, interface development, online capability, damage programming, and the physics engine.

Besides, they'll even be announcing a new manufacturer at TAS.... This from GTPlanet....

And, finally, one of the most exciting quotes regarding this Friday's Tokyo Auto Salon:

"Yes, my team and I will be there. We're planning to have one of the biggest GT5 displays we've ever built. There will be more manufacturer agreements announced there as well. It'll be a great show for us."

well maybe if they stopped adding in extra cars (like the prototype of the ft-86 g sport) it might get out quicker. and maybe they should hire more staff so they can get the game released while they still have a fan base big enough to make the game profitable.

It has ONLY been delay in JAPAN!

everywhere else is still on target to get it when they planned. as it has been mention its the big boys at sony not PD

that is only because japan was the only place to have a release date. and if japan doesn't get it, the rest of the world won't either. otherwise it would be like nissan designing the GTR then saying that japan won't get it but the rest of the world will.

wow is this still going on. as i said, i dont care as long as it comes out. all those flaming the time it takes obviously arent fans of GT. and as i have also said before, on release of the PS3 they said GT5 will be 2010....by my calculations thats this yr....so that means theyre on time, even if they were a bit optomistic with initial release date.

and if the driving academy thing is anything to go by, bring it on....love it, feels soo good. need to get my wheel setup sorted

Is anyone doing the GT challenge? f**k the fatest time in the tuned car is hard, im 7 seconds off it and cant even keep up with his/her ghost.

im 5 seconds off his tuned record, 6 off his stock record

Edited by GTR-boy

Anyone still playing GT5P? Cause I am...... :)

Time trial (Arcade)

Suzuka

NSX Type R - 2:16.496 (rank 203)

RX7 - 2:19.560 (rank 95)

R34 GTR - 2:20.336 (rank 89)

Need steering wheel to do better.... Still like average of 3.5-5secs off 1st place =/

gt5 fail number 1 http://www.godisageek.com/2010/02/gran-tur...in-autumn-2010/

gt5 fail number 2 http://www.gtplanet.net/

so basically the first story means that we will not in fact see gt5 before xmas (because we all know how accurate their time frames are) and then in 7 years time when gt5 finally does get released (it will still be released on ps3 yet they will be up to the PS5 by then) you will have the choice of driving a nissan mica and a toyota yaris as they will have scrapped every other car that they have said will be in the game.

On another note, the damage in gt5 is more to do with the wear and tear of the vehicle rather than crashing and smashing. As explained by gamespot.com when they were checking out the damage model.

    • No intention of driving the car the way it's set up now, just wanting to make sure I haven't made any mistakes along the way so that the tune can go smoothly, I don't want to waste anyone's time with stupid issues. And of course I intend to get it towed to the dyno in a completed state 😅 I have the base fuel pressure with the vacuum disconnected set at about 40psi, which I believe is at least relatively close to stock fuel pressure, maybe I'll have a fiddle with the reg and see what happens. For all I know I could be wasting my time with this and I should just plumb it in and see what the tuner reckons. I just find it a bit strange that it seems to be under so much load just free revving, but maybe that's just a result of the turbo slowing down the exhaust gasses and making a restriction in the flow, with no boost to compensate.
    • The boy just hit up google translate and it worked a treat, he said step one was "please urinate with precision and elegance", he then sent me the correct translation  I get some new loctite for the small fixtures tomorrow and get some "dort" going after that 🤣
    • Right, so is the fuel pressure the same as it was previously? If not, well, it's not going to work well. I can understand the theory I assume you are going for, which is: "Run it N/A, and if I have the original AFM, and same amount of fuel and intake air as previously, the fact there's a turbo in my exhaust should still make it run" Which it... might? Provided you don't actually change how much air or fuel is going into the car.. or getting out. But if you have changed that, all bets are off. What is the purpose to even have the car run this way? To get it to a tuner? And if the goal is to limp it to a tuner, you're still going to what - plumb up a whole intercooler system and new intake in the parking lot out front before your tune......?
    • Haha yea it's a bit of a weird setup at the moment, just wanted to make sure I sorted out any headaches before dyno day. At the moment I've changed the exhaust manifold, turbo and downpipe, 460lph fuel pump and rising rate reg as well as the previously mentioned headstuds and gasket. The nistune was already mapped for the car as it was and drove around for a few months no worries. The plan is to run flex fuel hence the big pump, which I've wired direct to the battery through a relay to avoid voltage issues.
    • Um. Was the ECU the same as the one previously there? I know R33's needed R32 GTST ECU's or other tomfoolery to run Nistune. This is such a wild setup. Most people would plumb in the turbo then not drive the car (i.e tow it to a tuner). What's actually changed since it last ran?
