Talk about a real driving simulator

Yeah, I bought a PS5 mainly for GT7.

Are any of you guys able to play? I thought the maintenance was over but the game is still stuck for me.

Nope, it just gets stuck on a "GT" loading icon either in the middle of the screen, or bottom right corner. People on their FB page are saying they are still down as well.

While I waited out the scheduled maintenance on the GT7 servers, I ordered a 1TB Samsung QVO SSD for the PS4. The load times drive me insane, mostly because I've gotten so used to instant times on my PC. Plus the HDD on the PS4 is outdated and the console itself needs a good deep cleaning.

Ooooof.




They’ll have to respond to this I think. If they keep their fingers in their ears now polyphony won’t get anything out of me ever again.

Yeah I didn't play after the update. Before that it was totally playable without buying extra credits... I don't think I'm going to pay to play after already dropping $70 on it so not sure what their logic is there. Those scemes are fine on free games..

To be fair a lot of those reviews are probably trolls who fanboy Forza Franchise.

Game is definitely not perfect, i would rank minimum a 6 probably more like 7-8/10 so far.
I dislike the currency busting update. If they had a Bspec mode like they did in GT of old where you can run AI races for you I may understand money farming being an "issue" for them.

That said making it harder to earn money doesn't make sense other than to push the Microtransactions which is slimy. Fortunately I love the scapes mode, I've probably put as much time playing with scapes as racing via GT sport. GT7 so far is no exception.

I don’t think it’s trolls, at least not the majority. This happened immediately after they issued the patch that nerfs the economy.

Yeah, if it were a free game, I'd be more open to spending money on MTs. I did that for Rocket League and spent $10 just to buy a Skyline, but the game was free and I enjoy playing it. So why not help the devs a little?

But GT7...I paid $90 for it! I refuse to do MTs in any game I paid for, especially one costing as much as GT7.

That Vroom song is a banger.

I won 100000 from a roulette ticket but it was again the smallest prize available. The one after that I won I think 2000. I've done so many races yet my money is still around like 200-300K, which is what - 1 R34 GT-R?

I think my used R34 was like $350k, so not even.

Yeah I paid for some stuff on Rocket League just to support it but it was free/cheap to begin with.

This is partly why I didn't spend the extra money on the deluxe edition. The special bonus credits to start with was very likely an attempt to get people used to the idea of "oooh I have so many credits", spending them all, and then needing more and more credits ASAP but not being satisfied by grinding races.
