Private rooms for private races (preferably with live-chat) are indeed a must have feature.

But I must say that I’m disapointed to find out that ‘cheating’ is possible.
I have been trying some Time Trial records to find out that the best times are not clean perfect laps, but some rail bumping laps instead. That keeps the car on the road with excess speed on some corners. I’ve done it myself (Mikas24) on High Speed Ring, GT-R, Standard mode and same circuit, F430 Pro mode. Touching the rails should be ‘always’ penalised.

It could be great if this issue could be solve, although resetting the scores would also become mandatory.
It’s not pretty, nor fair to watch the best laps replays on the best car simulator, to find out that those records are made like that.

Very cool! Now I’ve got something to shoot for!

Just wish it was a McLaren! ;) It would be nice to have the top F1 team 8^D represented, and that mirror-finish would be great to see rendered in hidef!

Still, nice job, folks! T-minus 14 days…

What about LAN play?
It was great using several PS2s and having LAN races with GT4. Any chance that will be a prioritized functionallity for GT5 and GT P?

SPARDA & ozzyuno,
private races with buddies and in-game chat are all in the works… but will not be ready from day one. Will keep you posted on the progress!

Thank you so much for the updates Imasaki-san. Some of us were worried we would not be able to set our own rooms up and be able to use in-game chat. The chat is such an important feature in online racing to avoid crash-fests, and we’re mighty happy Polyphony Digital is working on it.

Hi, sorry for my english… But do you know when it would possible to set our own rooms up and be able to use in-game chat ? I think it’s a very important point for some oh us.

Thanks a lot for your answer !

It’s 29th now, the Japan version can update the Spec II at 28th (some of my friends just got it), when should I wait for our HK-version’s update? I’m start saving Cr for this F2007 now, don’t let me wait too long!

My GT5 has just arrived :-). All i can say at the minute though is looooooooooong install time and when you think your done (if your online) theres a long download and install of an update :-(. Still waiting to play the game and its been here for over 20 minutes.

“the Ferrari F2007 will be available at all Gran Turismo Ferrari dealerships for 2 million game credits.”

So does this mean the Japanese version of the game get updated to included the f2007 and other extras that are to be included in the EU/US releases?

Sony and PD can you please get the DTM license? That would make a great touring car addition to the GT series. The Toca series (from Codemasters) use to have it in their Toca series, but now that they dropped it to go to the more Need for Speed route (:-[ ) they no longer will have it in the Toca/Grid series.
