Quote from Vain :

Well they already thought that they had done a good job on the original physics and ai, so it's anyone's guess what they mean by "better".

Vain

actual Kaz quote

Quote :

Improved car physics simulation, further evolved A.I.

Better physics and ai - nice

This is probably the GT5 PD would have released had not Sony force them to release early
or if PD didn't waste so much time

There are some pics of these new interiors

Preordered locally a few days ago for $43.... half the price of Steam....

I read that you can do gay marriages in Skyrim...

10 litre inline 4 FTW

I think Red Orchestra 2 is a better game

AI is better, just not faster

V1.10 update is online in case anyone missed the memo - adds some useful stuff, but nothing game changing and DLC

Racing Gear Items
•New racing gear items consisting of helmets and suits have been implemented. These can be used by players in A-Spec, or for any of the “My Drivers” in B-Spec.
•There are plenty of variations to the racing gear items and, in addition to several sets being given out as presents when you start GT Mode, players will be able to win new ones when successful in online events. Players can also take a photo of their drivers wearing their favourite gear, and use that custom photo for a driver profile.
•For more details, please refer to “Racing Gear” under Top Menu - [Manual] – [GT Mode].

Special Online Event Campaign
•For a limited time, all event prizes will be tripled, and all cars appearing in the Online Collector’s Dealership will be brand new (0 mileage) and at half price.

Prizes for online events
•GT5 will now offer online events in which players can win Racing Gear items and cars as prizes, according to performance. The content of the prizes and the conditions for winning them will vary per event.
•Details of the various events are found in [GT Life] – [Online Events].

Parts purchases through the Settings screen
•In the Settings screen, parts that players have not yet purchased will now have a shopping cart icon appearing next to them. These can now be purchase on the spot. Purchased parts will immediately be equipped on their car.
•For details, refer to Top Menu – [Manual] – [GT Life] – [Settings]

Improved Opponent AI Algorithm
•The search range of opponent AI has been expanded and their intelligence algorithm has been improved.

Interrupting and resuming Championship races
•In the championship races of A-Spec and B-Spec modes within [GT Life], there is now an interrupt button in the quick menu which appears after completing individual races.
•If the interrupt button is pressed, the event will be interrupted and a player’s record up to that point will be saved, and the game will end. The next time the player starts the game, they can continue the championship race from where they left off.

Additional music track
•After playback of the ending movie (*short version), “Day To Live/daiki kasho” will be added as a bonus music track.

Other Changes
•Check the physical endurance of drivers that are resting in the B-Spec endurance races.
•Sort the garage by [Last Car Driven]
•In [Weight Adjustment] of [Settings], players can now see changes in the front to rear weight balance when the ballast position is changed.
•The A-Spec driver is now displayed in the profile screen.
•In the pit menu of B-Spec, the time limit for being able to direct pit work has been changed from reaching “0″ in the count down, to “Until the car comes to a complete stop”.
•The sorting order of the music album has been improved.
•When selecting a track created in Course Maker from the course album of Arcade Mode or GT Mode, players can now run single races with up to 16 cars. (Excluding some tracks such as those made before the update, and dirt tracks.)
•It is now possible to take 3D photographs even without connecting a 3D compatible TV.
•It is now possible to export 3D photographs to [Photo] on the XMB™.

Correction of Known Issues
•PDI has addressed the issue of the maximum speed set in the transmission settings of the settings menu differing from the actual top speed of the car. This will affect cars equipped with the relevant transmission tuning part, and almost all racing cars. Cars for which each gear ratio was adjusted manually with a full customised transmission in update versions 1.07 and earlier will not be affected.
•An issue with the increase and decrease of the online logon bonus has been corrected.
•An issue where the player’s car and opponents’ cars braked at the wrong timings in the pit lane during B-Spec has been corrected.
•A problem where racing sound effects were turned off after changing settings in the quick menu has been corrected.
•An issue of how dirty the oil is when players purchase a used car not being affected by the car’s mileage has been corrected.
•An issue where some of the driver gear colours had changed after the 1.06 update has been corrected.
•An issue in the championships of GT Life where opponent cars kept using the same tyres in the second race and onwards has been corrected.
•An issue where the menu BGM was being played back during remote racing rather than the race BGM has been corrected.
•An issue of the program freezing when opening a garage containing nearly the maximum number of cars has been corrected.

You should post it in the GTPlanet forums

Quote from Rappa Z :

Ay, but presumably I would have to give it back then, right?

Keep in mind I will be clocking 30 or so hours in just two days!

GT5 has a loan system, it is automaticly given back when you change cars. When it's shared, I can't use it. And I haven't in a months anyway

I have all the expensive cars shared right now and will be so for a while
I'm busy with other games right now, or not playing much, currently more interested in music writing in my spare time

Online is the easiest, as I have both shared, so if you add me as a friend, you can borrow them by clicking on my profile in the game

Otherwise I can't see how, since they cost a fortune

I hate the menu navigation!!!!

Why are there 2 layers of buttons - when simple arrow keys could have sufficed.
I kept trying to press the symbols on the screen, which are just pics....

Not liking the floating/hovercraft feel of the cars and the pendulum swaying!

Ai is pretty cool though, and the grid girls

^ Nice avatar

Looks like a beefed up version of Carbiz megacrop

The Chaparral fan car?

Quote from Hyperactive :

Soo Could someone gift me an X1 before the 3rd of next month?

I have some nice shiny cars I can give in return

I might be able to in 2 days time. I have a few transfers to make before then

Doing a remote race now with a full grid of level 0-10 drivers - talk about action packed!
Many lead changes, off track incidents and crashes

suspended till the 3rd, start spamming the dupes while you can

Standard cars got some love in v1.06
I noticed my recent purchase of the Audi S4 rally car looked pretty good

Quote from SHIRAKAWA Akira :

Comparison before/after:

Also physics and how the control pad feels is way different, tyres seem to slide more, easier to drift etc
