If It's In There, Would You Be Interested In Building Some Form Of Gran Turismo Tracks?

If It's In There, Would You Be Interested In Building Some Form Of Gran Turismo Tracks?

Man, do you really have to pick at Gran Turismo Godfather Kazunori Yamauchi’s words to get any hint of a story. GTPlanet have picked up on the wording of an answer Kaz gave during an interview with IGN regarding GT5’s rumoured track editor. In the interview, IGN staffer Ryan Geddes asks if a track editor would make Gran Turismo 5’s development any easier (due to the players making tracks in the game). Yamauchi responds, “A lot of the courses we set up, we take a long time fine-tuning the details and building the track, so it would probably be a bit different than the types of tracks the users will set up in the game.”

The keyword interestingly being “will”. Could be a translation thing, but it’s totally interesting all the same. Will a final feature list for Gran Turismo 5 ever be released?

    Wow, way to go at putting a spin on what he said.

    He was replying to a theoretical situation brought around by a question from IGN.

    "Have you finalized plans for a track editor?

    Things like that I can't really discuss yet. This can be said about all the GT development. Until we're very close to release we won't have a finalized decision on a lot of things.

    If there is a track editor, that will make your job easier, right? Because you can make fans design the tracks instead of your team.

    [Laughs] A lot of the courses we set up, we take a long time fine-tuning the details and building the track, so it would probably be a bit different than the types of tracks the users will set up in the game. "
