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 =/

  • 2 weeks later...

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.

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
