2 cars & 1track are going to be released for this.

It will feature stock and tuned versions of the Nissan 370Z. The track featured in the demo is the Indianapolis GP style circuit .

Wonder what the download size will be

Anyone try this out yet?

No Love for the 370Z at Indy :(

well, here's my impressions

for me personally a further let down towards the physics as there's always some milliseconds behind the real and I'm not referring such as NfS Shift, I'm referring towards PC simulation titles plus GT series since day one. Maybe it's not for gamepad users butfor me using a wheel I'm used to an immediate response.
My wish towards PD is giving the simulation lovers out there a bit more support instead of giving them a disadvantage.

I got to rank 391 on tuned version and the other car i got to rank 180. There are a few problems that just need tweaking but i'm finding it quite fun :thumbup:

Are you a machine? You must be if you are picking fault at something being a few milliseconds out of real-time.

Maybe it's not the game thats at fault, but your equipment.

Got to give this a try later....

you're right, I'ld be glad if it was millisecs, I meant 10th of seconds and I fear it's not my rig as ffb is right there at GT5P, even GT4 and all Simbins

[epicname]

this demo game is a let down, for me. i think gt has had its day.
the main thing is its no fun at all! it doesnt feel like a sim it feels like a shit game.


oh and the sounds are :thumbdown:

[markspeed]

Why am I not suprised? There more things change, the more they stay the same.

[Roush9]

Ranked 206 overall, 227 in the tuned and 261 in the non-tuned.

Pleasant surprise, I like the snappyness of the cars.

I found the responsiveness when using a wheel greatly improved over GT5P. Still don't like the fact there's no G25 support and how you can't change the steering ratio.

[Raikku]

What kind of times ppl drive elsewhere, it seem that here we see only scandinavic times. Best(Finnish) is around 1.35.5 with tuned 370Z.

Although I can't drive under 1.40 ...

[Roush9]

I don't know how people can drive the damn thing that much faster than everyone else. The top 200 on the Canadian side are all within 2 seconds of each other, the top guy is like a second faster than everyone.

time are posted on GT site of each region ;)

well, not really needed to compare with other sims, only real cars. I think the tuned 370Z doesn't feel so bad. Not sure about the other, there's something fishy in suspension, tyre, sound and steering but some people see it as improvements over GT5 Prologue (and GT4 oviously)

[nabdool]

Quite honestly, if the 370z handles that poorly in real life then Nissan need to go back to the drawing board! (but the motoring media have nothing but praise for this beauty of a car!)

GT needs to step it up!
