If you remember, at the beginning of 2013, I posted a poll asking what players needed to keep up their interest in GT5. The poll stayed open for 6 months and has quietly closed and the results have been sent in to SCEA's GT team. I will let you know if I get any feedback from them about the poll, although I am not expecting any.
Because of the limitations of the Lithium poll module, some of which were only learned after it was created, the results are not exactly accurate, but the main concerns of somewhere over 100 people were collected and made obvious. Significantly, the top three items are all likely to be addressed in some manner by GT6, which was announced after the poll started. We just need to learn the details.
Thanks to all who participated, and thanks to all of the Tunas who helped create it.
