No performance is ever gained from VRR.

This is just a fact.

It's a sad time to be alive when people suggest as much.
Yeah, and coming from the so called graphics experts.

I hope they let you expand the sound track because from what Ive seen on reviews the sound track for the GT is trash and that is very unfortunate.
There are over 300 tracks in the game. And there is no such a thing bad music in gran turismo games

I mean, it doesn't change the framerate, but PERCEIVELY it does change and makes it more smooth. Trust me, I have an uncle who works at Sony. He said they will implement VRR when people want better performance and don't think it's a bad thing. He said at this rate, there's no point as people don't mind frame rate drops. Please complain so I can get better performance on my panel. Please just do it.

Why are people here assuming VRR will magically turn 40/50 fps to 60 fps is beyond comprehension. It's just a magical word dumbasses use to try and justify poor performance and optimization.

Sure it can solve Vsync, tearing and MAYBE a bit of juddering problems, but what this game really need is a patch to solve perfomance issues or implement some kind of DSR to make sure it's constant 60 fps.

I never thought people would laugh at performance gains like VRR, but here we are

Such a sad time to be alive

Sad is stating VRR as a "performance gain". It improves the overall experience in instances where it's not possible to hold a target framerate but a "performance gain" it is not.

Why are people assuming VRR is a bad thing? Thought you had me ignored? It's better to have VRR in games that can't hold a stable 60fps. Personally, I've never met a person who is against VRR, until i got on GAF. Again, I'm excited to play the game on my racing sim, but I'd prefer my uncle to implement VRR

Do you want some cream for your hurt butt.

Drama queening aside, you know you're wrong. Best to just move on.

Either way the game will be good. Butthurt creme won't be needed. Again, I'm asking for tags? Will someone post some so I can beat some ass in 2 days? You know who I am. Let's goooo?

I'm curious, how are you playing?

Too bad the only console I've owned in the past 10 years, is the Nintendo switch.

Or are you now joining the ranks of the many resident bullshitters that we have here?

GHG GHG ps5DE literally got it for this one game. Maybe you should step back and realize I'm a gamer first of all. I respect you as a poster on gaf, but holy shit you're really trying me. I don't get why people can't accept any criticism? You'll see me complain about every game possible. PC, Xbox, ps5. Not sure why you are coming at me like that?

(Nintendo gets a pass though)

Oh so now you want to try and play innocent as if you haven't made the focus of this thread you and VRR - both of which have nothing to do with the topic in question? And no, you categorically do not complain about every game possible. You're going to try and tell everyone you're Switzerland when you're clearly not?

Interesting that you supposedly got a PS5 DE for this game though, I thought you didn't do consoles, especially considering some of your previous comments regarding console exclusives.

Wah wah wah. Look, i play games bro. Haven't had an Xbox since 360, nor a PlayStation console since the same time. Not sure why you are wah wah wahing at this point. I'm a racing fan at heart. Don't try and block me for any criticism I have. VRR would tremendously help. If you are against that, you are something special. And yes, I've criticized Elden ring, fh5, etc. Stop being a warrior and become a gamer GHG GHG

I guess we have to wait for GT8 to finally get a Gran Turismo with a locked frame rate. It's been a long time since they achieved that.

I'm curious, do you ever do anything other than troll and gaslight people on this forum?

You are telling me, the person who has always had access to every single game in existence throughout my adult life to "become a gamer"?

Meanwhile just a week ago you said this:

Fanatech fucked up my order, so went with a better built wheel with more resistance. Can't wait to try out GT7 if it comes to PC.

Begging for games to come to PC. Saying you'll only try it out if it comes to PC. It's a shame.

Glad you managed to muster up a PS5 in the space of a week though :messenger_smirking:

OMG you really couldn't muster up the courage to realize, I'm a racing fan since gt on ps1. That's where I began my journey. From gt to pgr to forza, etc. I have a very expensive rig, strictly for racing. Platform agnostic. Other wheels for games that don't support them. I don't need to play every game to be a critic, but I'm vocal on games that need something to be said. Wish you would adhere to 6ft laws, so you'd get off my dick.

Anyways, in a few hours I'll get to play this game, regardless of the gatekeepers like you for instance.

Another video for context:

Also good bye last gen, that performance is so bad while at the same time it's not even better than Gran Turismo Sport.

It doesnt look that bad on PS4Pro, if hadn’t sold my PS wheel Id probably buy a used Pro and play it on that.
I’ll have to cross my fingers that the Nvidia leaks were real.

You act like your story of starting out with racing games via GT on the PS1 is unique, it's not. Such a huge racing game fan on PC yet you only purchased Assetto Corsa last year.

Do what you want, just don't bullshit me. And don't worry, this is the internet, I'm nowhere near your dick.

Likely what I'll be doing for the meantime, don't really fancy moving the PS5 out of the living room and then back again when I want to play anything other than GT.

except that the game drops into the high 50s duing normal play as well as shown in the same video. even with 0 cars on screen.

Seriously, mods need to work and start combating these clowns!


To make it more clear to the mods:

Ok bro, you got it. VRR is unnecessary. Game runs perfect without it. I'll play it either way, and when i suffer from bad frames in the trial mountain, I'll think of you.

Everyone agrees that VRR is a good thing and everyone (on Sony's side) is waiting for the update that will bring VRR (at least those with compatible TVs).
But these people aren't actually debating VRR, this scenario here for example doesn't need VRR. The previous quoted user said that the games drops to "high 50 during normal gameplay", that's a complete lie! So it's about the game needing VRR or not, it's just flame war.

I got the game last year, cry me a river. Look through my history, racing fan at heart. Anything else you wanna tell us? Does that meant I'm sitting idle for a whole year? I probably have way more play time in racing games than you. So what? Means absolutely nothing. Again, try harder man. Dig through my post history, it's the internet, everything is visible. Dig harder next time?

So every thread is going to turn into a VRR thread now?
Seems like.

Due a single location out of 36 that has framerate issues (it will probably be worked).
And a situation that nobody will face in gameplay.

Outside that the game is locked 60fps and some guys advocate VRR lol

Imagine a place that people wants bad framerate with VRR instead locked 60fps.

You can add me but I don't really play online, you'd be better off adding me on forza horizon to give me a beating lol.

Anyway my psn tag is the same as my username here.

I usually ignore or reject people, but if its obviously you I'll give you an add.

Along with iRacing it's been the racing game on PC over the last decade. Not fucking Forza which only arrived on PC in 2016 via Apex, all of which have had subpar wheel support and FFB. But yeh nothing to see here, especially for someone who exclusively games on PC and claims to love racing games.

Read above, i literally mentioned iRacing in a previous comment. Do you have a bridge to burn with me? Not sure why you are coming at me so hard, yet falling face down each attempt?


Look bro, imma play gt7, I'd prefer VRR, but I'll pay regardless. If you wanna get lapped, leave your name as well. You're barking up the wrong tree.

it LITERALLY drops frames during normal gameplay. how can you deny facts shown in the very video this whole thread is based on?

not a single car on screen yet it drops frames. and in the extreme cases... which is apparently driving in rain... which is a normal scenario in a racing game, but apparently not to the "we don't need VRR" crowd, it literally can drop into the 40s

these are hard facts backed by evidence. you are simply being emotional because your precious toy needs to be perfect on all fronts.

oh what horror it is that people talk about TECHNOLOGY in a thread about VIDEO GAME TECHNOLOGY

Because it is a exception in the Trial Mountain only.
You can't be that obtuse... people already pointed it to you.

The others 35 locations are locked 60fps no matter how many cars... John had to create a gameplay stressing scenario (a situation that doesn't happen in normal gameplay) to made the game drop framerate.

do you have evidence that the other 35 locations do jot drop frames?

also, again, in the rain it clearly drops on more than this track.

he showed the absolute worst case scenario, that doesn't mean there aren't scenarios that aren't that bad but still drop.

and as I told you before as well, it's not about how often or low it drops. VRR is best used for games that barely drop frames because if you are already almost there, vrr makes sure it feels like you are there all the way.

VRR can be something that helps a game that is completely awful like Elden Ring, but there you will still absolutely feel the framerate drop. the main use for VRR is 50fps and up or games that can't quite hold a steady frametime output where it makes games that would otherwise have 33ms frametime spikes feel completely smooth.

example, Bloodborne. if you had a VRR screen and played Bloodborne with VRR support, you would literally not feel the framepacing issues of the game anymore.
what is a stuttery mess without VRR even tho it runs at a pretty much flat 30fps, would instantly feel almost stutter free with a screen that can dynamically adjust its refresh

So it is as i expected - solid. I can forgive minor drops, after all, framerate is stable enough in most cases.
If John says so i believe him.

The visuals are great. I disagree with the opinion that GT should only be made with ps5 in mind. If i didn't have a ps5, i would still like to play it on ps4. I think it's fair, especially since quite a lot of my friends still haven't bought a new console.

As for me, i won't experience most of the changes anyway, because I still haven't bothered to buy a decent 4k TV.

All i need now is a proper wheel and I'm home. :lollipop_grinning:

VRR only partially solves frame pacing problem, nothing more, but its still pretty important.

Its absolutely essential for certain games on PC.. for example my 6800xt can't really keep a steady 165fps in warzone to match my monitor so I have to use VRR and the experience is stellar with that turned on.

Yup, that's why I think its important. BTW mine was 6800 XT as well
