B-Spec in GT5 was a poo poo mode, the AI was really dumb, bad and frustrating. It should be better here if what they say about the AI actually fighting for positions now instead of driving in single file is true.

It should be better here if what they say about the AI actually fighting for positions now instead of driving in single file is true. This is also very true. To be fair, it was even worse in 4, but I mostly used b-spec in 4 for the longer races where you had to pit, in which I'd build up a massive lead before handing the car off to the braindead AI driver.

My favorite part about B-Spec was how you had to constantly spam the "Don't lose the race, you rear end in a top hat" button the entire time.

Alright 2 pm pst or so or whenever here is all of the races and stuff in no general order and we can do other specs if you want.

After seeing the debacle going on with Forza 5, and how much they are seriously trying to improve with GT6, I came *this* close to pre-ordering GT6. I'm telling myself I won't pre-order, and just wait one-three days for thread reaction here. I am seriously concerned about load times though.

What issues are you having? it should just work without issues. The options menu is where you would want to look, you'll see your wheel in there.Tommy 2.0 posted:After seeing the debacle going on with Forza 5, and how much they are seriously trying to improve with GT6, I came *this* close to pre-ordering GT6.

Gaming journalists have the game now, but they aren't allowed to say anything until December 6. The only negative i've heard so far is the load times for races. Load times on everything else like menu's is really fast now.

Honestly, just cleaning up all the menu tediousness is enough to get me excited. I wish the PS3 wasn't so deep in to it's life span, I'd pick up another SSD for it. Buying SSDs solely for a small handful of games gets expensive.

It was not the gold build, but it was really close to finished. We'll see how the load times are now that the game is done, and with the day one patch, but I expect it'll still be the same.

Not really, I don't expect the game to hang up and seem like it crashed like that reviewer said when loading. It won't be worse than GT5, I played the GT Academy demo this summer and the load times were extremely fast.

In GT5 when PD changed the way the loading worked, the track would load really fast, but the cars took forever. A full grid of all unique cars was a pretty lengthy load time.

I was actually just thinking that I bet the moon track is a Coffee Break mini-game or Special Event. So it's something you'll have access to a few times in the career mode. The Lunar Buggy you can apparently drive on any track in the game though.

The small fact that it has the smallest selection of cars in the series and only 14 tracks only made the problem worse.

I've never had a problem with shipping with Prime, but my brother doesn't have Prime and apparently it now takes Amazon a week or two to ship him in-stock items (as in, they don't even leave the warehouse for a week or more). There's a lot of people complaining about that; seems they're basically making their non-Prime shipping suck to get people to pay for Prime.

Yes, I have Prime still. It may just have to do with where I live now, which is 3 hours away from a Amazon distribution center, but that doesn't seem too bad?

So people on the middle east have gotten their hands on the game before the update so they're spilling a bit of information and so forth on the game. If you have a gtplanet account, I'd say start asking. Hell I'm surprised he didn't put in the OP loading times. http://www.gtplanet.net/forum/threads/got-a-copy-of-gt6-ask-questions-here.290981/

I checked this list a couple weeks ago against GT5 and every Ferrari that was in GT5 was in it, but I just checked it again and some are missing including the F1 cars... http://www.gran-turismo.com/local/jp/data1/products/gt6/carlist_en.html I guess it couldn't have been all sunshine and rainbows... so yeah we lost some premium cars, probably due to licensing.

I hope we get more Ferrari's via DLC. I wish we could get the LaFerrari, but that is exclusive to Forza 5. I feel like the trade off though is those 15 or so concept cars that we'll eventually get for free. Also  at some of the hardcore Gran Turismo fans on GTPlanet, complaining about how GT6 looks disappointing. I set my expectations low for this game, and i'm happy so far with what new information has been revealed today.
