Rather than being a fully featured editor – a feature that, Yamauchi confessed, was tinkered with but deemed too complex – the course maker allows players to select certain set parameters to create a track. A theme can be selected, with the Belgian High Fens or Toscana two examples, and the individual track sectors are then defined.

Sectors are edited individually, with frequency of curves, sharpness of corners, degree of topography and banking angle are set with a series of sliders.

Yamauchi created one for the purpose of the demo, a 10km run through the Belgian High Fens. It was sparse but not without sparkle, with rolling hills and fields and the occasional environmental feature like a small village giving it the feeling of a long and winding country road.

GT5 Interview - Weather changes in realtime while racing; Driver's management is extremely important in this game; Endurance races also have this weather feature; A-Spec & B-Spec are both equivalent in this game but they're included separately in the game

It looks like there's a Kaz interview in Famitsu this week. I haven't been keeping up with GT5, so I'm not sure what's new, but here's what Game Jouhou has in its summary:

The game includes elements surrounding the driver's personality, strength and mental condition.
There's importance placed on driver management
During endurance races, you can swap out drivers
The weather will change in real time during races
The game will have racing modifications, although not for all cars

[Guy LeDouche]

we need video of the karting (unless its already out there and I haven't seen it)

 

[mr_nothin]

FUCKIN SKID MARKS?!!?!?@#>!@$m?!><%m#@>%<m@>$^%264

 

[LiquidMetal14]

The Lord uses those features in mysteeeeeeeeeeeeeeeerious ways!

 

[evolution]

I can't believe everything we heard was true. Theres so much stuff in this game

 

[gundamkyoukai]

Need vids of karts just to see how there are .

 

[torontoml]

From one of the guys that was at the press conference videos aren't supposed to be released until thursday after 9am, but obviously once one person does it I'm sure everyone will. So it'll only be a matter of time.

 

[SunhiLegend]

PD are gods. Wake me up November the 3rd. Peace

 

[NinjaMouse]

Pardon my ignorance on this subject, but is GT5 going to have a career mode?

 

[Gravijah]

ctrl+f magnum

fuckers, better be in the final game. been wanting one in game since GT4!

 

[SolidSnakex]

Also the fact that karting is now confirmed should also confirm that Yoshida's info was legit. So that also confirms weather.

 

[Loudninja]

Might as well add those new pics SolidSnake.

 

[sykoex]

FUCKIN SKID MARKS?!!?!?@#>!@$m?!><%m#@>%<m@>$^%264

Any details on whether we'll see unique skid marks depending on what tires you're using?

 

[Omiee]

so what we know is skidmarks
a track editor mode they couldent acces yet
niceee and karts i so hope rain is in as well than this game will not exit my ps3 for months
well im lying it will be in my drive together with fifa switching it everytime

 

[MGR]

Trees are still 2D.

 

[seattle6418]

Can't wait for the weather report tomorrow!

 

[jiggles]

Doesn't the confirmation of karting also pretty much confirm the track editor? (Due to it being spilled by Yoshida, I mean)

 

[SolidSnakex]

Pardon my ignorance on this subject, but is GT5 going to have a career mode?

Yes, it's called GT Life. It was previously known as the GT Mode.

 

[BobTheFork]

I'm sensing some skid marks in this thread too.
I don't think I'm getting the game but I wish I could just watch the races people here have and listen to the chat. It should be epic with a rabid fanbase like this.

 

[Niks]

skid marks are in!

cant wait for the inevitable
bu bu but the "skid marks disappear over time! no buy!!!1!"
:lol

 

[Saiyar]

Jaguar XJ13 '66

I rember seeing pictures of Kaz driving this at last years Goodwood Festival of Speed. I guess he liked it .

 

[Huggers]

I'm way out of the loop with GT5. What is the final word on damage?

 

[SolidSnakex]

Oh shit, in my excitement to post this topic I didn't even notice that the Zonda R is on this list. Oh my god!

 

[mr_nothin]

Doesn't the confirmation of karting also pretty much confirm the track editor? (Due to it being spilled by Yoshida, I mean)

No, but the demo confirms a track editor by the name of "course maker"

 

[Mush]

HOLYSHITHOLYSHITHOLYFUCKINGSHIT

 

[Frawdder]

Karting
"course maker"
skidmarks

and Monza!

Can't forget about Monza!

 

[mr_nothin]

Oh shit, in my excitement to post this topic I didn't even notice that the Zonda R is on this list. Oh my god!

You also didnt list all of the details in the OP

 

[Firewire]

skid marks are in!

cant wait for the inevitable
bu bu but the "skid marks disappear over time! no buy!!!1!"
:lol

love it!:lol

 

[NinjaMouse]

Yes, it's called GT Life. It was previously known as the GT Mode.

Fantastic, thanks!

 

[jiggles]

No, but the demo confirms a track editor by the name of "course maker"

Well, goddamn.

 

[Bebpo]

I haven't really been keeping up on GT5 updates.

About how many tracks are we looking at total? Anywhere near GT4 size?

 

[Omiee]

Man this is gonna be my GOTY to be honest i just cant imagine me not playing this game for years to come.
Also i would love and hope they let u upload tracks u have made.

 

[matmanx1]

Hot! Thanks for the update.

 

[Firewire]

I haven't really been keeping up on GT5 updates.

About how many tracks are we looking at total? Anywhere near GT4 size?

If there is a track editor then the answer is thousands.

 

[scandisk_]

Cars


* Zonda R ‘09


ZONDAAAAAAAAAA RRRRR!!!

 

[SolidSnakex]

A quick reminder

Now that Monza is confirmed does that mean Spa is next?

 

[Saiyar]

I haven't really been keeping up on GT5 updates.

About how many tracks are we looking at total? Anywhere near GT4 size?

The 3 new tracks on this demo brings the total to 19 confirmed circuits (29 variations). One of the guys on the eu.PS blog said there was 40+, don't know how accurate that is though.

 

[scandisk_]

ZONDA R!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Melfice7]

skid marks are in!

cant wait for the inevitable
bu bu but the "skid marks disappear over time! no buy!!!1!"
:lol

maybe they dont :O motorstorm style

 

[paskowitz]

For those that do want to know what the new cars looks like:

Ferrari P4 Race ‘67

Jaguar XJ13 ‘66

Ford GT MKIV '67

Pagani Zonda R '09

Fiat 500F '68

Fiat 500 '08

Volvo C30 R-Design

Citroen C3 Convertible

I could not find images for the ISF concept car. It could be the concept race car:

 

[SolidSnakex]

It's better to see the Zonda R in motion

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YPd0ATqvoJM

Real footage of it setting the Nurburgring record for non road legal cars.

 

[witness]

Still waiting to see the most important part, to me, the modding system.

 

[Y2Kev]

Also the fact that karting is now confirmed should also confirm that Yoshida's info was legit. So that also confirms weather.

2d trees.....WILL RENT

 

[asclepio_gtr]

Ford GT MKIV '67

Pagani Zonda R '09

 

[Melfice7]

For those that do want to know what the new cars looks like:

*cars pics*

and yet the guys playing the demos still only use the R8 and SLS O_O

 

[Firewire]

Spa has to be in.

 

[badcrumble]

So does this leave just dynamic weather as a rumored-but-not-confirmed feature?

 

[Dead Man]

SKid marks gave me skid marks. XJ13 = Instant buy, even if I hadn't been going to before (I was anyway!). So keen now. I think I have to put myslef on blackout just to try nd calm the hyoe I am feeling. Just a quick question though, the tracks in the OP, are those all the confirmed ones? I really want Deep Forest, it's been my car setup track since the first game.

 

[SolidSnakex]

So does this leave just dynamic weather as a rumored-but-not-confirmed feature?

I don't think that Yoshida said dynamic weather. He just said weather. Now it could be dynamic, especially considering that day/night cycles are in. The other feature that he mentioned is a stunt arena. And no one really knows what the hell that means.

 

[LiquidMetal14]

This is gonna be car heaven.
