This should shut some people up👌
Game is going to be fantastic, really cant wait to get stuck in😁😁

2pacalypsenow2406d ago (Edited 2406d ago )

Shut who up? The game still doesn't have a career mode like GT6.

IRetrouk2406d ago

Doesnt need it, did you see all those options? Plenty of single player content.

2pacalypsenow2405d ago (Edited 2405d ago )

Plenty of people will be put off because of this, since they want a full career mode. And when I say career mode I mean a real single player career mode like GT6 and Forza 7.

IRetrouk2405d ago

I dont think they will, once the reviews come out people will see how deep the game is, its teaching real racing techniques, ok so you dont get a cup when you finish races, you still get credits and xp, kaz also said on twitter that there is full on races in the campain, i played an endurance race in the demo/beta, i think people have over reacted, did you watch the video??

Goukira2405d ago

climbing up in the ladder with better scores and rankings and get to race in official FIA competition is your creating your own career as a "sim"racer

feraldrgn2404d ago

This isn't GT7, this is GTSport.
GT7 which will be more single player focused will come afterwards.

I went for pcars2 on the rift and it's well worth it imo. Though I would like a proper gran turismo vr one day with full on career mode just like the old days. Something I can spend 100 hours or more just carefully choosing and picking the right car to buy to win the race. Tuning up with the right parts buying the right wheels and so on. Selling my whole garage for that suzuka pikes peak and leaving my ps on all night so I can continue that 200 lap race the next day. These thing's make me remember the game. These are the things which made gran turismo special I wish we got all that backed with full vr support.

Instead we have a barebones game with a barebones career. If I wanted real hardcore racing against online peeps I already have iracing for that. Pcars also provides that too. Gran turismo just basically took out everything that seperated it from the rest to focus on alll this esport business

nix2405d ago (Edited 2405d ago )

How's the AI there? I was completely put off by the AI in the first game. I still play the career once in a while... Playing as a Formula A driver. Only two nights back, I put it on only to get frustrated. Reminded me why I stopped in the first place.

I was playing GT demo other week. OMG I felt so good racing because for once the AI was not trying to kill me. I've pre-ordered GT. The game has downloaded. 10 hours to go. I know there's no proper SP and that was what was keeping me on the fence but after the demo and few online races, I decided. The game is still no walk in the park for me but I won't be Restarting the same damn race because some stupid AI decides to brake in front of me unnecessarily spinning me out. Enough of that crap.

Ducky2405d ago (Edited 2405d ago )

^ The AI is pretty much the same in both pcars and pcars2. You have to modify the AI difficulty to find the fine-line between passive and homicidal. I have yet to find that line. :(

I'm not a fan of open-wheel racing, but I've heard good things about F1 2017 as far as single-player is concerned.

Also, if you haven't already, try to get the 1.02 patch for GTSport. It's 12gb in size, and you'll be locked out of the single player campaign without it (and the game won't save either).

nix2405d ago

I've seen videos of PC2 where the AI has been pushed to 100 (because that's what you do when you play a sim) and all they create is a mountain. I had a good laugh. Thank god i didn't buy it. Clearly, i had enough of the AI.

Create Your Career
Your Career
Career

You hear that people?

crazychris41242406d ago (Edited 2406d ago )

Its Career in name only, its barebones compared to the careers in the main entries of the series. This is an online focused game, they have been saying this for months.

-Driving School

This is all about learning racing techniques and how elements like tyre grip and vehicle balance must be controlled. You’ll do things like power in and out of the apex of a corner without veering off the road.

-Mission Challenge

This is the largest of the sub modes. Here, you will apply what you learned in the Driving School to real-world situations. This could be making a certain number of overtakes, beating a time trial, staying ahead of opponents, knocking over cones and even competing in Gymkhana events.

-Circuit Experience

This focuses on individual tracks, using reference videos to help you master the circuits sector-by-sector. Braking points and apexes become clearly marked and you learn how to deal with changes in camber and overtaking zones.

-Racing Etiquette

This mode was inactive during my play session, but given that the Sport mode’s matchmaking and player rankings are impacted by your Sportsmanship Rating, I think it is clear what kind of experience you will find here.

AspiringProGenji2406d ago (Edited 2406d ago )

It is refering to the online mode! The career is now shifted to the Online which makes sense. The campaign will test you racing skills and will each you everything about driving and etiquete, then you show off your skills online and get the ranks, grow, and compete. That is where the Career is in this game as opposed to Single player career. Take that as you will, but I am excited for this direction and see how far I get and build my Career. Other more enthusiast and gifted players my even achieve their dreams and become a profesional racing driver. That an actual career if you ask me

NoPeace_Walker2405d ago (Edited 2405d ago )

AspiringProGenji,

So what you are saying is you have to always be online to take advantage of this career mode? How is that making sense for people that just want to play single player offline, doesn't always have internet connection or have no PS Plus subscription?

AspiringProGenji2405d ago

Yeah and I’m sure GTS was always told to be an online first game. If it is not for you then I get it. The SP this time around is not the typical one. Take that as you will...

Kribwalker2405d ago

what i find really funny is that Sea Of Thieves gets crapped on because there’s no single player that we know of and it’s an online centric game. yet here we sit, with an online only (really, there’s not much you can do offline) GTsport and they are being praised for going that direction......#doublestandard s

IamTylerDurden12405d ago

This isn't GT7, it's GT Sport and it's a slightly different take on the GT franchise. It's more focused on competitive racing and it in no way needs to adhere to people's expectations of what other games have. If u can't handle nor understand that then go play something else.

nix2405d ago

I wonder how stupid ppl are. From the first trailer it was evident that this is going to be FIA approved racing game. That means you race with other human racers. It's going to put off lots of ppl but man just stop talking about SP. The game doesn't have it. Everyone knows. Don't hate just because you missed the entire plot.

It's like Halo Wars or Forza Horizon. The damn title doesn't even say 7 and is replaced with Sport.

Just get the point, people.

Kribwalker2406d ago

as in:
Your Career
online Races played
online races won
driver test
clean driving

but a typical GT career mode it is not

NoPeace_Walker2405d ago

The career mode is not like the past. In GT6, you don't need to be always online to progress your racing career.

Gazondaily2405d ago

Close your eyes and believe 😍

AspiringProGenji2405d ago

But but career and single player are not mutually exclusive 🤔

freshslicepizza2406d ago

The menu/UI look way better than past games.

Eonjay2405d ago

Yes they definitely nailed it. It is smooth, responsive and that seems to really add to the overall experience.

InfinityRipper2405d ago

The demo was great, but I don't have ps plus so I'm on the fence about spending 120 bucks to get into the game. I'm still playing assetto corsa, so I'm going to wait for reviews and see how well the crash system is implemented before I decide, it looks great though and is the only game that would get me back into online gaming.

Father__Merrin2405d ago

Didn't have time to play the demo that much but it's obvious there's a lot of content. Loved the rpg style leveling even if you do a quick time trial or event you gain experience. For an online focused title this is going to do very well.

PlayStation Removing Twitter/X Integration for PS4 and PS5 on November 13

PlayStation has announced that they will be removing Twitter/X integration from PS4 and PS5 systems on November 13.

shinoff2183193d ago (Edited 193d ago )

I never used it or had no intentions to. I am curious to why though.

Nitrowolf2193d ago (Edited 193d ago )

the API prices, Musk is insane
Even if PlayStation could afford it, it's a waste

GamerRN192d ago

It was never that useful when it was free for Sony

excaliburps193d ago

Elon that's why. He put a large amount to use Twitter API. Dude is killing the platform and once BlueSky launches, it's game over. I mean, assuming BlueSky works and all.

gerbintosh193d ago

Just like when Threads launched, it was game over but look at it now. If a company wants to replace twitter they need to innovate not copy

Spenok193d ago

Lol, yeah, THAT'S going to happen.

Musk has been doing nothing but make the platform a better place to communicate, making truth easier to find or point out.

People keep saying it's dying, or he's going to kill it, but it's somehow still the most used platform of its kind than any other.

shadowknight203193d ago (Edited 193d ago )

Twitter is 1 of the few social platforms that allows us as people to speak freely, and I mean everyone, so him ruining the platform as u say, is a big joke of a statement.

Sometimes it only takes 1 person, but it takes a large group of people and a need, a purpose, to make a change happen. There was obviously a need for change. Spew your propaganda filth all you want, but if API prices ruins a platform, a 'use' that PS never really used or needed, then you otta reprioritize what matters to you when you speak nonsense. But that's actually what that is "non" "sense".

Moegooner193d ago (Edited 193d ago )

Lol @ the last two comments. It lost around half of its value. Try again.

Jin_Sakai193d ago (Edited 193d ago )

“Musk has been doing nothing but make the platform a better place to communicate, making truth easier to find or point out.”

“People keep saying it's dying, or he's going to kill it, but it's somehow still the most used platform of its kind than any other.“

Exactly. The Elon hate is funny. Twitter was headed for bankruptcy before Elon acquired them and now with 80% of the workforce gone X continues to operate just fine and has gotten more features than before in a record amount of time.

X is seeing 1.5 million new sign-ups every day.
Back in March, X reported that it now has 253 million daily active users, an increase of 15 million on the 238 million mDAU that Twitter reported in July 2022.

SyntheticForm192d ago

Thank god for community notes.

RioKing192d ago (Edited 192d ago )

Expecting the guy who ran Twitter to not turn BlueSky into the same left-wing echo chamber it was is hilarious. Have fun with that. 👍🏼

fr0sty192d ago

@spenok, that isn't even close to true. Twitter has lost almost all of its sponsors, and usage rates are plummeting faster than any other social network out there. At least try to look up the facts before you speak.

fr0sty192d ago (Edited 192d ago )

@ Jin

X currently has 225 million daily active users – a decline in tens of millions or 11.6 percent of users from just before Musk acquired the company. Ad revenue is down 50%.

fr0sty192d ago

Elon lets the nazis roam free, and in turn the sponsors roam free as well, away from X. I give it another year, he'll try to sell it once his dream of turning it into an unregulated bank come crashing down around his feet.

MS had already dropped it, so this really isn't a surprise.

I used it just to post screenshots. But that was years ago when the feature and twitter were new.

Gamingsince1981193d ago

Twitter was always trash, the faster he kills it the better.

Army_of_Darkness193d ago

X and rumble. The only platforms with genuinely true free speech for us all! Everyone should support them by signing up. It's free after all 👆👍 heck, I never had Twitter until Elon took over😁

FunAndGun193d ago

There is no such thing as "free speech" when you sign a Terms of Service Agreement. X and Rumble still delete, ban, and censors users.

shinoff2183192d ago (Edited 192d ago )

Man I get the free speech and all but the biggest ones clamoring about that are the ones I'm not interested in hearing their bs from anyway. Free speech shouldn't mean being able to flat out lie with no evidence what so ever. Just saying

Will say twiiter is one of the few places besides reddit I could advertise one of my ventures

ZeekQuattro193d ago

Musk is doing his damndest to kill X the artist formily known as Twitter. Oh well. 🤣

cammers1995192d ago

It'll be gone within a few years thanks to him.

Army_of_Darkness193d ago

Why would you say that? The dude is undoubtedly a great human being. Donating to charities, helping the environment, allowing free speech on X even though his actions are causing other huge companies and elitist to become his opposition as a consequence, his quote to them was“Offer me money.. Offer me power.. I don't care.” 🙌 the man!

shadowknight203192d ago

People have more hate for him than Jeffrey Epstein. It's not the people's fault, it's just people are too easily brainwashed by propaganda. Happened with the Germans and Hitler, and it's happening again but on a world scale.

Babadook7192d ago (Edited 192d ago )

Musk is a breath of fresh air compared to other tech big wigs. He’s not even woke.

Zuck on the other hand. 💩
