For reference, the update size for PS4 is 1.998 GB

[@windhoven-nl]

Update on a PS5 is just over 2 GB.

[@Forest_Fin]

My update says it's 32.071 GB on PS5. I just played it 2 days ago so I have no idea why it's such a large update. I was expecting to see some new tracks added due to the size but that hasn't really happened on any GT game that I can remember. I'll take some new fake/GT made tracks over any car or engine swap at this point. Surely it can't be that difficult to make some. If not then maybe give us back the custom track maker that was in one of the earlier games. I'm completely burnt out on every track from the past 25+ years. And still missing the Twin Ring Motegi road course after all this time

[@aaronsmith7143]

​@Forest_Fin It was 32gb but made the overall games size go from 136 to 131. So it definitely did some good with whatever they are unpacking and packing within the games files.

The Volvo with the LS7 swap does help with performance, power wise. Since some cars in GT7 have two engine swaps, perhaps we could get the Volvo V40 engine for the 240 if you don’t want to make a drift or speed build.

[@sadsismint]

PSSR certainly has some artifacting when enabled and currently, I'm kinda struggling to see the differences/upgrades in visuals with the pro enhancements.... slightly disappointed.

[@StanleyWhatley]

Hope you can help, after the 1.54 update my PSVR2 headset is not working properly. When on I can see and hear the game as if I dont have the headset on. No eye tracking, when looking side to side it's as if I'm looking at the flat screen if that makes sense. I can change the driving mode from cockpit and all the other modes (I don't know if I could before because I never tried). I've tried all the adjustments eye tracking, play area setup, etc. I couldn't find out how to contact Sony support.

[@StanleyWhatley]

FYI, I don’t really know why but my PSVR2 is working correctly again.

[@TheTechnobear]

really interested to hear your thoughts on the Pro/VR improvements - maybe my motivation to get a Pro! two disappointments: - cafe menu - locked behind RNG due to invitation for Enzo. - Merc is behind a 20 mil grind :( also I think VR could have been shown some love outside the Pro, but thats seems highly unlikely now.

[@edmaxwell257]

Im so hyped to try the turbo s and the cosworth 🔥🔥🔥

[@mnormansell1984]

I know ive said this before and you actually touched on it in one of your videos but i wish one day, that the tracks that are sophy enabled allow for custom races, the scaling seems to work depending on what car you choose so i dont see any reason why custom races cant be done, or even arcade style races that can select the number of laps, 3 laps, 5 laps here or there isnt enough, 1 lap of the ring, at least give is short, medium or long races, looking forward to seeing how it looks later with pro enhancements and very interested in the vr being improved.

[@naffantait]

More likely will be implemented with the next title, the AI is still pretty much in a testing phase currently

[@mnormansell1984]

​@naffantait I hope so, can only the imagine some of the battles with Sophy when pitting strategy is a big factor in a race, that with dynamic weather also

[@PhantaxRacing]

Seriously @thegranturismo 30 Million credits to get all of the cars in the latest update ! BUT some people may never complete it as you've locked one of the cars behind an invite only RNG wall. It was a pretty poor update anyway but... geez

The invite is a really stupid idea to have in the game, and if you have the credits you shoud be able to buy that car.

@rickyjohnson9024 there was a problem with some cars. Especially with GR. 1 and super formula cars. The problem was that the normal FFB was nearly completely gone. I couldn't feel the street anymore but other things like the pendulum movement of the car was way to strong. I assume you didn't recognize it if you only drove GR. 2 or GR. 3 cars.

Yet another $20,000,000 car in GT7? Stop with this shit Polyphony. I’m just gonna say this, when you make GT8, these uber expensive cars (when bought), better transfer over from GT7 to GT8 at no cost.

[@heinous70]

It sounds like all the other updates.. there were 29 gigs smaller. All that space, and still doesn't include full support for the Logitech shifter.

[@arcticpenguin.]

The 6speed? Mine works with my g923 perfectly

[@aaronsmith7143]

You do know that it being a big file size doesn't mean it adds that much to the games overall file size right?

[@aaronsmith7143]

To update, the games overall size is smaller after the update.

[@Kev27RS]

Over 30 GB for what? People with an original PS5 don’t need all of this…

Stop crying. The game literally takes up less storage after the update. You kids don't understand how the shit even works.

[@MaziarAnsari-j7d]

Very impressed with the PS5 Pro update. The realtime raytracing during races is insane. A major step up from the base PS5. Especially when playing the game with the in-car view. The replays are now 60fps with raytracing which is a big step up. Haven't tried VR mode yet but I'm very impressed with the update.

[@jaysreacts]

Why is my GT having server issue?? I can't play the game properly, HOW DO I FIX THIS ANNOYING ISSUE

[@LayzeeGiant]

For the size of this update, it is completely underwhelming. Three filler races with one on the worst track in the game, Mt. Panorama. Really thought we were going to get a new track but I guess we’ll hafta wait until GT8.

[@superharuhifan]

Excuse me, Brands Hatch is not only the worst track in GT7, but the worst track in real life as well

[@LayzeeGiant]

@@superharuhifanBrands Hatch isn’t that bad. Hell, I’d take a brain dead NasCrap track over Mt. Panorama. Worst track in the history of GT.

Can you make a video on how to make enjoyable custom races that can provide good credits with the new cars? My view, the long awaited Ford Escort Cosworth has come! Congrats for the video and channel man!

[@naffantait]

Good idea! I'll look into this over the coming months👀

[@JonnyMiddleton21]

In terms of events, I think giving us a new Hypercar Parade race for the Porsche Mission X would’ve made sense. Sadly I don’t think there are any specifically for valuable cars from before 1960 at the moment but maybe the Mercedes-Benz W 196 R ‘55 could be used in a Sunday Cup Classic event if one pops up again in the Weekly Challenges.

I was happy to drop 20 mill on the Merc because I hated losing credits over 99 mil. It would be so cool for the Jimny to fall off the cliff on GV because IRL that's exactly what would happen.

[@heinous70]

I just fired up the ps5, and decided to spend 3M on the Audi GTP. It was by far the cheapest one to complete. But something odd happened. Roulette ticket yielded a SF 23 car I was unfamiliar with. After checking, I realized it was because I was a Honda loyalists, and it was the red Toyota version of the livery.. but I could have sworn it was on a HONDA SF23. Went to the garage to verify, and the car isn't there. I absolutely got ripped off. Not even sure I would have realized it, unless I had questioned the branding, and gone to the garage to look immediately

Mr Naffantait, how are you young, fella? So look, when the updates are due, and the silhouettes come out, how is it that you are right over the target with the silhouette cars? I don't like coincidences. How many coincidences before it's mathematically impossible? What's your secret? Who are you...really? Who do you work for? Tell me what you know or face 40 lashings with a frilled neck lizard!!! 🦎 🦎 😂

[@naffantait]

Most silhouettes are really easy to guess, couple that with the leaked car list for reference as well as news articles about brand deals between GT & Manufacturers and comparing the silhouettes to the actual cars it's much easier than expected. I've always had an obsession with cars since a young age and learning about the brands & models is something I've done for many years now, I've also thankfully got a loyal bunch of subscribers who like to jump in with their opinions from time to time which can also help with predicting what's under those silhouettes. Really the only difficult ones of recent were the Mercedes Benz 156 & Porsche 992 which were only made predictable but very specific parts of the silhouette

[@JonnyMiddleton21]

I’d reached the credit limit so I’m glad the Mercedes-Benz W 196 R ‘55 costs 20,000,000 so I could spend a fair chunk of them haha!

Im honestly having more fun re playing Gran Turismo 4 on pcsx2 with upscaling, rendering pack and wheel setup. I played GT7 for about a year and a half but its just so repetitive and grindy. At this point Just doing the daily races, a fast lap on the challenge and maybe an online race is about the most its got to offer so I never feel like there is much to do. I spend more time just fiddling about with car liveries as its more fun than the actual game, The cafe menu system is boring as hell and doesnt have any sense of achievement to it. Give away cars as prizes instead of silly car parts and engines which usually ruin most cars feel and make most cars undriveable half the time. GT4 is still the better game 20 years later for me.
