I decided to buy GT7 because of the film, it was genuinely inspiring. First I haven't played any of the games since the first on ps1. So I haven't got much to complain about. For me the game is great. The part that I personally think could use alot of improving is tuning section. I have a decent knowledge base of mechanics. For anyone that doesn't this is where you could widen your imagination. For instance when you buy parts in game you could animate anything your doing like port and polish, or show the difference visually in comparison to different engine or suspension components. I think it would be interesting and revolutionary to allow players to see what their buying and what impact it will have going into a vehicle as they decide to purchase a specific part, instead of just explaining what it will do. An example would be to use the current car being tuned and put it on display and highlight what part the player is considering installing, and on the same screen have a animated interface to show the pros and cons of what its going to do. Then in the garage under tuning again visually represent what is being done. I'm a visual learner and numbers aren't a great help. If a player doesn't know what their doing, but would like the option to see what their working on I wish it was available as an option to use a graphic display of what's happening. Show the suspension and visually represent the toe in or toe out of a point of view of the shocks or sway bar being adjusted, and on the screen to the side animated what its expected to do. Theres alot of room for improvement, and I think it would dramatically lead other players to buy the game because your paying attention to every little detail you can. The driving simulation is excellent theres no doubt about that. I'm an enthusiast and enjoy the gameplay, but your skipping over alot of content that could make the game even more interesting. An example of what I'm referring to is the newer Nascar games. When a player goes to adjust the spoiler they show how the downforce will effect the cars performance. The same could be applied here. Just buying parts and installing them doesn't really give the racer the understanding like it would displaying the changes being made to a tune. You can't even adjust air pressure which massively changes the outcome of traction, and results change on tire wear as well. Just something to consider. Great installment thank you for the experience
