Gran Turismo 5 Update 2.05 Goes Live, New Seasonal Events
As previously announced by Kazunori Yamauchi, Gran Turismo 5 version 2.05 is now available. It weighs in at 25MB, and apparently brings with it only one publicly documented change, according to Polyphony Digital’s website:
- The issue of experience and rewards not being received in online races has now been corrected.
New Seasonal Events have also become available in the game, introducing the following new A-Spec races:
- 400PP Autumn Ring Mini /5 Laps
1st: Cr.133,200 2nd: Cr.81,100 3rd: Cr.71,200 - 500PP Nürburgring GP/D /3 Laps
1st: Cr.301,000 2nd: Cr.183,100 3rd: Cr.160,900 - 650PP Special Stage Route 5 /5 Laps
1st: Cr.447,600 2nd: Cr.272,400 3rd: Cr.239,400
The game’s Online Car Dealership has also been updated; head over to our forums for a complete list of the new selection of vehicles. Thanks to RACECAR for the quick tip!

Do we get a ticket for seasonal completion?

I think it’s amazing how much time PD has been devoting to this game and making it as awesome as it can possibly be. Most companies (I’m looking at you, EA) would have long since ceased updating it in preparation for their next game. Thanks PD! :)

They would have given up on day of launch.

I agree with Brianuk1. I was unaware ANY of there games were updated. It always seemed to me that they stopped fixing their games several days before launch. :D

Yes I agree because some companies just leave it after about 1year but PD nope went the extra mile with 2years and they are doing this as well as making gt6
I’m not trying to sound like a fanboy but PD work extremely hard so let them do what they do best and make the gt series better every once in awhile this is somebodys whole life (I mean cars)if Kaz were to read all of the hate comments do you think he would feel fine?I certainly would not.

GT5, The real patching the patch simulator.

if only our cars in game, would rust after a rainy race, I am certain the patch job would be excellent.

Just noticed another fix, although minor. The cursor (arrow) in both A & B-spec is now starting at the bottom of the list, with beginner. Which is how it always was, until 2.04. (Instead of the cursor at the top of the list, with extreme… which is the way it was in 2.04).
-
February 19th, 2012 at 5:49 pm - #quavers
I noticed that to,small but useful fix I kept clicking endurance instead of beginner (I wanted a ticket)since i was used to bottom cursor I thought now why is 24hours of le mans in beginner?

Can anyone help me out? It has been there for awhile now, but I still don’t know what for. In the top left of the screen under your position number is a small U symbol followed by a number and %. What does this mean? Is it like in GT4 in arcade mode where there was a number before the race with like our odds / chances of winning. I remember the higher the number the harder the race was to win. It was all based on your car selection, (the lower the number the easier the race).

I think that is the amount of water on the track. Ex. 72% water ion the track
-
February 16th, 2012 at 4:16 pm - #STUCHS
The “U” you are referring to is the icon they use to represent your tire, the dashed line underneath the tire represents the road surface. There is a little water drop beside the tire as well.% sign indicates the amount of water between your tire and the road surface at any given moment during the race. It changes based on current conditions.

Currently most updated and supported game in our game libraries.
I’d take bug fixes over Dlc and no fixes.
-
February 19th, 2012 at 6:11 pm - #quavers
same because there could be a bug so you cant use dlc (wait there is my mates can’t always use the track/maps even though they have done the download and installation)

One thing I have noticed is when I tune tranny and set top speed, it always says something different when you look at the tuning sheet selection screen.

It’s almost hard to believe, what started out as a 9GB game has grown to 21GB. Don’t forget with every update/patch for a previously introduced glitch that our HDD just keeps getting smaller…
-
February 16th, 2012 at 2:33 pm - #gordogg24p
Grow it to 50GB! I’m not concerned. I’ve got plenty of HDD space. Let’s do this!
-
February 16th, 2012 at 7:21 pm - #ps3finest
Wouldn’t suck if you had the really old 20GB playstation? You would need two of them: one for most games and one for GT5. That would be funny, assuming you weren’t that person.

My own music playlist doesnt play in online mode after 2.04. Hope they fixed it!
Add much more Aspec championships please, its so boring game without friendly leagues with rules.-
February 16th, 2012 at 9:21 am - #killerkizzy96
mine never has, only offline races and arcade
-
February 16th, 2012 at 9:25 am - #karelpipa
Mine music until 2.04 has played one time and one time not, but from 2.04 has never played in online.
-
February 16th, 2012 at 10:36 am - #Bom15
Music online only works when you have mics turned off. It still works since 2.04. Past 3 days i’ve been online with my music.
-
February 16th, 2012 at 11:32 am - #NoonenF1
My custom tracks have always worked, you just need to be racing in an online room where mics are disabled (doing this also increases the connection speed of the room too, so it is a win-win-win as you don’t need to hear people talking, can jam to your own tunes, and have an increased connection speed!).
For some reason though sometimes my music will not play in menus. To remedy the problem I need to go to the option page and just re-click the playlist. Not a major problem, it’s just some kind of bug probably.

1+ both Bom15 and NoonenF1. My works aswell if mics are off.

Wonderful photo Joie de vivre! I’m inspired. :) I loved this new seasonal event and update. The last event was pretty tough, but I made it. Just won a Honda CR-Z. ;) Can’t wait till March. :D I’m also loving the new OCD aswell, I love classic rally cars.
Thank you very much PD. :)

Now I have at least a reason to do a seasonal race, after a long time. :D
Thanks, PD.

Well, I just got screwed, did the 2.05 update and while installing it had an error, went to download again and now I have to download 15 updates. WTH!!! So much for my day off.
-
February 16th, 2012 at 3:42 pm - #Sawicki2
Yeah that happened to me aswell. apparently it’s a defected data issue according to the error code. But you’re lucky this error seems to have been stuck in my system! can’t even download anything without the instalation process being aborted!
-
February 16th, 2012 at 3:55 pm - #30psi
Finally finished installing all 15 updates, now this is the fun begins, all my DLC is gone, paint chips….gone,racing gear….. gone, all RM cars are now white and all tracks…..gone. SMH! Have to see how I can get all my stuff back.
-
February 16th, 2012 at 9:24 pm - #30psi
I had to delete all my update files as the same thing was happening when I tried downloading them again. After deleting them downloading went smooth. Hope you get your update sorted.
