GT5 going Mac exclusive?
I'm actually impressed someone noticed that, I wouldn't have.
I'm joking, as if it wasn't obvious enough.

I'm probably wrong, but anyway:
Check the "Race Settings" box to the left. The fourth icon looks like two cars (one white, one black) and a sun behind them. I guess it could indicate damage too (as in, a "crash flash" or something), but the shape of the sun seems similar to the colored sun behind clouds in the upper right corner of the screen.

I thought full damage on race cars and paint damage on prod. cars was already a known factor since Leipzig?
Very cool to hear about night racing. Fingers crossed on weather systems.

The light deformation I think is the paint scratches. They are two terms for what I think is the same thing. Some call it paint scratches because its the most noticeable part, no parts fly off and visually the most immediate result is the texture change for scratches and dents. We saw it in videos already where body panels go slightly out of alignment, the bumpers and hood bow a bit and textures change, but no body parts fly off.
I dont think we will have three tiers of visual damage. Paint only. Paint plus slight deformation. Paint, deformation and parts fall off.
Though I guess with special series races like Nascar and GT and rally, they could have custom damage models for certain events.
Either way, thorough mechanical is the most important. Visually we will get feedback of the damage being done through the textures and slight changes, but handling wise, that's what I see as crucial.
That said, have we seen any broken windshields? Will the in car view be affected? And in all the race setting screens we have seen, is there a way to force a certain camera angle for a race setting (force cockpit view?)

Not to sound like a douche But you also would'nt be talking these things now. Studios like microsoft are far notorious at keeping things underwraps until last minute. Look at bungie and halo 3 for reference.

not really, as soon as we know some info, it immediatly becomes "old news" and somehow not interesting anymore.
so right now dynamic weather and night racing have become "boring"... before, people sworn that it is their biggest feature ever.
Like it or not, PD is doing it right. They are keeping everyone on their toes.

For those that haven't heard, EA just released a Ferrari pack for the 360 version of NFS: Shift. According to them, it's not releasing on the PS3 (and PC) due to existing Ferrari licensing agreements. I'm not really sure that it'll have any impact on GT5, but it's certainly interesting.

Everyone but me, apparently.
I was on my toes last year, when "it could be released at any time", when there was going to be a huge E3 blow out, then a huge Gamescom blowout, then a huge TMS blowout. Back when there were scanned flyers saying it was going to be released in 2009.
Now a days, not so much.

It really is interesting that the Mac icon made it into GT5, even temporarily, because the PS3 devkit doesn't even support Macs.

Yeah and Supercar Challenge was released in September of last year. So anything that's happened as far as licensing with Ferrari would have had to happen fairly recently.

Not really, given they've got their own NFS competitor on sale with its own DLC.p_p_o_d said:

No not every improvement. Just improvements made quite late in the development cycle.
I understand some fanboys want to spin it like PD doesn't pay any attention to the competition but it's glaringly obvious here. And guess what...there's only one particular group of people here attacking me for that statement...

You don't really need falling parts for damage to be an integral part of the game. Most of the damage you get amongst serious participants is restricted to rubbing and grinding anyways.
The vital part is to have damage affect the performance of the car.
The only time you really need cars flipping over and losing full parts is in Rally. And that's what we've seen so far...WRC cars have full damage.

This was the first time we've seen a new build of Fuji in over two years (Prologue was released in December of 07 in Japan). It seems natural that the game would improve visually over that span of time.

I agree and have no idea why people think this is not the case. PD and Turn 10 influence each other in game development and other aspects. Greenwalt shaved his beard so that he could be more like his hero Kazunori Yamauchi while the latter delayed GT5 in order to implement liveries into GT5 so that people deprived of colouring books as children have something to look forward to.
