8) Burly men in powered armour shooting Aliens who have invaded!
9) A dog companion!
10) Being able to take another car as a hostage
11) Tits

Woops almost forgot to contribute. Anyway i've never been a massive Gran Turismo fan but i think a damage system would be pretty sweet to spice things up.


P.S. I'm loving the avatar OP

Decent AI is a must for any racing sim, and for me GT's AI is too predictable. Make the drivers more lifelike by providing different driver profiles with different attributes. That would provide enough variety in the driver lineup. GT feels a bit soulless in this aspect because the cars dictate the lap times for the AI, without any perceivable margin for human error.

I don't think GT can be seriously considered a racing sim unless damage is addressed. The damage does not have to be spectacular like in GRiD - it just has to create a similar effect as a car would in real life. Parts don't have to fall off realistically, but when I crash against a wall at 200mph I expect more than a bounce against the wall that lets me merrily continue my course.

GT probably already has enough customization as it is. Custom car paint doesn't add to the racing realism and I think Polyphony already have their hands full trying to balance each car's stock settings to seriously consider aftermarket tuning.

I am not familiar with the unlimited tracks feature, but 20-30 tracks for me is already ample to memorize and become reasonably competitive in. Now if it were "unlimited cars" that'd be something else.

I don't care for downloadable content if it requires me to pay additional. I guess I prefer the mod community approach where it's free. Of course, if Polyphony do offer DLC for free then why not? However, I doubt this would ever happen given their stance on DLC.

One thing I know would take away a lot of the attractiveness of playing GT5 is if they place too much emphasis on DLC while skimping on the retail version. I expect a full game with content at least on par with previous versions of GT, not another "Prologue" with DLC slapped on it.

Having online isn't enough - the network code has to be up to scratch (within reasonable limits of course; lag is lag after all). Take F1 1999-2002 for example: the network code was awful and anything over 100ms lag would have cars disappear and reappear out of nowhere in seemingly random locations. RFactor's network code by comparison is a work of art.

No mandatory installs would be great. I can understand a couple of MBs but not the current trend of 1-4GB (and more) per game on the PS3.

Finally, if GT5 could render the game at 1080p (I'm not referring to the photo mode but the actual gameplay) that would make it "perfect". I think that's a pipe dream though since most titles with complex graphics this generation are barely capable of rendering in native 720p.

I'd love to see more front wheel drive cars, and more championships to use them in competitively. Especially classic european ones, 205 GTI, R5 GT Turbo, old Ford XR's and RS's etc.

Oh and less bloody Skylines.

Another vote for better AI and damage as well, it infuriated me the amount of times I'd be braking for a corner off a long straight and the computer slammed into the back of me.

Although the last GT I played was on the PS2 so things might have changed since then.

1. Faster gameplay.
2. Change the name to "Midnight Club."
3. Something.
4. Profit.

Okay, I'll admit it: I don't like Gran Turismo. It's just so slow... I don't really understand what people find fun about the series.

I think you'll find gt5 prolouge has online mode, it's not brilliant granted but its there, which means it should be in the full installment.

But yeah gt5 does need dammage and better AI. What i liked about GT4 was the variety in what you could do and the amount of cars available. It is slow going in terms of progressing though it but that what keeps some poeple going.

Flipping the cars upside-down. Think about it, you've never done it because there's a 45 degree limit on how far a car will tilt. What kind of simulation is that? Seeing cars slide down a straight at 120 mph on their roofs would be pretty awesome!

Which is a copy from burnout's road rage,

which burnout copied from an earlier generation...Yes the PS1

Destruction derby was a fun racing game ^^

...anyways I agree with you..races like road rage or a destruction derby would make it perfect

I like how the burly men are shooting aliens from their guns, and not shooting at the aliens.

Agreed. It would take an awefull lot to make GT a great game IMO let alone "perfect".
You're taking it to literal! Jeez, you people and your "nothings perfect!" nonsense, you're taking his phrasing a tad bit to literally.

But they have to add destructible cars in the game (havn't played the actual demo). As much as I liked GT4 I really wished I could crash my car into the opponents driving the reverse way of the actual track.
