Gran Turismo Sport Will Not Feature Weather or Dynamic Time-Lapse

Forza didn't have dynamic weather or lighting in its first xbox one game either. Actually it doesn't in the latest version either- but it does have fixed weather and lighting.

Driveclub is 30 FPS lock. Devs of this game have said they're shooting for 60.

It's not that they can't do it. Different dev team, different priorities.

Project Cars would have been a better example, as it is 60 FPS (at least most of the time).

Not really excited about this one. It seems like with the longer development cycle, the GT series should be doing better.

This is what I don't understand, if these games can do it, dynamic weather and time, why can't GT and Forza?

Disappointing.

But I'm sure that at some point after release, I'll add this to my collection of games.

Games like Project Cars are aimed to be more hardcore racing sims. The devs at an early point made the decision that they had to have dynamic weather and lighting to be realistic sims. Regardless of the cost of graphics in other areas.

I would not say Project Cars is the best looking game on consoles, especially compared to playing it on PCs.
