that paid 200 dollars for his in game credits

Ugh. People like that are why game companies continue to do this crap.


Is this really the age we live in? Everyone is too lazy to just play the game to get money/cars?

Personally, I think GT5 payouts were way too much, and GT6 got it right. The game economy is slow so you have to spend time driving slower cars before you work your way up to race cars. It's designed to make you a driver capable of at least getting the car around the track, with out taking anyone else out in the process. GT5 was horrible for people driving cars that they have no control over, and it ruined most lobbies. It's harder to get credits to buy things like the tank car and stuff, so people are less likely to go and hassle people online in them. You have to make an expensive choice to be a troll.

Alas, all of you people taking advantage of the glitch shouldn't have bought the game, or at least should make an attempt at being a decent driver before you step into the veyron.

What you are saying just delays those people coming in with tank cars. Jerks are jerks no matter what car they drive online. Winning races to buy cars is fun, but it's frustrating when you hardly get any money. It doesn't help that the single player is so short. I don't know why you're so butthurt. People "glitching" for more credits doesn't make them bad drivers.
 
I don't really see any moral high ground here at all. On one hand we have Corporate Sony/PD pursuing a very expensive "Pay to Win" strategy whilst on the other hand we have a rampant bunch of cyber-activists sticking it to the man in the best way they know how! :lol:

I don't really care what anyone else thinks, I'm rooting for the under-dogs! :cheers: :gtpflag: :cheers: 👍👍👍
 
You know back in the day and even today you can go to websites like cheatcc an so on and get codes to cheat/help you through just about any game. Why do you care how anyone else plays the game? Play how you want to. It's not going to make anyone faster online and It don't affect you one bit on career mode.

Remember Xploder discs? They even came with magazines. PS2, those were the days.
 
Think about it from the working class in real life. I work 40 Hour Weeks 10 PM to 7 AM, never getting 2 days off in a row. this glitch was my saving grace so to speak. When your only able to play the game 4 hours a day, getting 10- 15 good online races in, and at the end of the day if you don't try different cars and mod them daily. You would have only made $50K in 4 hours. now mind Fully modding out a average road car costs $200k before Aero and chassis. and the DAYS it takes of trail and error of tuning that car, only to find out that it just wont cut it. You will see why this glitch (which is more of a developer oversight then hacking) Is good in SOME respects.

Such a pathetic over exageration. Congratz on having a full time job. Welcome to adulthood and society. Suck it up. Its amazing to what lengths of irrelevance people will go to to justify their actions.

God forbid a company charge you for the product they provide. Perhaps you would have been happier in old soviet russia, waiting in line for your toilet paper ration.

No need to be punished for a loophole on there end.

;)

So by your rationale murder would be ok so long as you find a legal loophole to get away with it?

You mean waiting in line for credits. :)

Yeah let's compare murder and glitching for imaginary credits.

As usual, you miss the point. I don't mind paying for stuff, I just don't like being asked to pay twice.

If you have a problem with that then hard luck. Go and annoy someone else.

The rationale and relationship to human behavior is the same so yes, lets.

No one is twisting your arm to buy ANYTHING. They are offering a service for people who like instant gratification and are willing to pay for it. If the payouts were the same and there was no cash shop you'd just be whining that the game takes too much work. I'm personally glad to see rewards harder to earn. If not for this glitch then seeing someone with certain cars would mean they actually put in the time to earn it, either in game or at a real job.

Instead lazy entitled brats like you demand everything for nothing.

Enlighten me as to how he is acting entitled? Because he doesn't want to spend $50 to get a measly 7 million credits?

What precisely is stopping him from EARNING them by playing the game?

Youre suffering entitlement issues if you think you DESERVE that 7-20 mil car without earning it. Its pretty simple. And noone is forcing anyome to buy credits. Youre free to earn them in the game just like everyone else and its not YOUR place to determine just how hard it should be to earn said credits. You gonna walk into a job interview and tell your boss just how much work youre gonna do and what hes gonna pay you for it? Good luck with that. Lemme know when you get back to reality from what ever planet youre on.

Putting in time to "earn" something by just doing more races than the next person already meant nothing, but this is the first time I've seen prestige given to simply paying more. And somehow they of course aren't entitled eventhough the result (and even the motivation) is the same as that from glitching.

PD isn't offering any service by the way, because they set up the game such that you're forced to buy into their "service" if you want to have full, immediate access to everything. There is nothing stopping PD from shipping the game with all the cars in your garage. You're being charged for nothing.

The only thing I see is you blowing everything out of proportion based on a narrow mindset. Where is the entitlement? Even a hint of it? I don't see any. People simply don't want to pay for something twice, which makes perfect sense to me, or don't feel like being stuck in the same tired and unrewarding game design from however long ago. PD can choose whatever business model they like. No one has to like it.

Who is interviewing who here?

@swg: Thanks for quoting me twice.

Anyway, this is a video game, it is not a real life career. Earning credits is fine but you have to admit the number of races is small and the amount of credits won is small. It seems like you should just go play instead of calling people lazy because they don't want to do the same race over and over again for a solid week to save up for one car. Other automotive games don't seem to have this problem. PD made a car collecting game and then made it extremely difficult to collect said cars.

I don't know why you compare the credit glitch to things like murder and telling your boss what to do. I don't think your head is on straight.

You're weak on the authority right ? The big good PD said do this and you can't do otherwise ? I see.

Same with going into a work interview - if the other guy tells you that you will work for 16 hours a day for 1$/hour you would still say yes without questioning him ? Nope.

It's the same with broken economy in GT6.

I have 3 hours online one night and maybe a couple of hours during the week to play. Family, work and golf take up time. I've paid for something like a £1000 and to Sony and over £100 to PD over the last fifteen years, and the last thing I'm going to do is pay stupid amounts of real money for pathetic amounts of virtual money. Hey if PD/Sony want to flip us off, what do you think will be the next console I buy. Not a Sony one. Sony is the make of console I have ever had. The cheat is the only reason people aren't kicking off because of the price of cars.

It is not a 7-20 million dollar car. It's lines of code that cost no more to produce than a Diahatsu does. It's that simple. And the funny part is, many of the high dollar race cars are standards anyways. Why a standard car should ever cost in the millions is beyond me.

The guy who likes race cars pays just as much for his copy of GT as the guy who likes everyday (cheap) cars. Not totally against some kind of progression where better cars must be earned. But what GT has is not progression towards those cars. It's grind till your fingers bleed or pay out your nose.

Wow K. ITS A GAME, were did I justify this, no one is forcing anyone to do this and besides that money can't buy skill. We ALL earned our cars back in GT5, and alot of us don't want to spend years grinding away at a large patch of GT5 to get our crap back. We want to race, drift, drag and whatever else we want to do.

Next time dude, don't insult the person making a constructive opinion on a flaw in a game and how it can help a certain range of players based on "irrelevance". You must not be an adult mentally to make those assumptions and to compare a VIDEO GAME to murder. GG
 
I played the game for a total of 35 driving hours so far, most of which grinding (90% on the game completion status) and I only had 6 million in total earnings. If not for the 15th Ani. cars I'd only have about 8-12 cars. C'mon... that is NUTS! A ton of time spent, effectively finished the game, and only won enough credit for less than 20 nice cars ("ZERO" LMP cars). To get to a reasonably well sorted garage I would need to do the glitch about 4-5 times or spend alot of money on credits (I don't know how many years I would need to grind away to do it through the game's credit system). So to me... yeah its worth it. Honestly, without it I can see people getting too discouraged with the game and moving on to the next.
 
very interesting though how this is turning out to be morality thread rather than dicussing a question the glitch.
 
I have played all GT games since the release in 1997... never even thought about cheating until now. I used this glitch and i dont regret it. I feel that GT6 isnt any bigger and better game than GT5 so far, sure a few more cars, tracks and improved physics. And now im supposed to grind through the "same" game AGAIN (so it feels) to get some cars that have not improved since GT4....and PD knows this, making it harder to grind for money and wants me to buy GT4 models for real money instead. They are selling the cake and keep it at the same time.

Hopefully GT7 will improve, but i guess they will port GT6 to PS4, label it GT7 and people will buy the same game again. They will promise a lot of new features and contents which of course wont be available at release, and we have to wait months for it (lost interest until then?). And make you buy identical cars again which you already paid for in GT6. "milking"

The game is "meeeeh" for me who played all GT´s, but probably fun for the new players and they probably dont share my thoughts on this.
 
I don't think anyone is missing out by not doing the $20M glitch. I am confident that PD will provide login bonuses at some point, which will significantly increase the payouts. And I don't see "grinding" as a problem -- I get to drive all my different cars on different tracks, testing and tuning, enjoying the improved graphics and physics models, while having fun and earning credits. I'm in no hurry to get all the cars or achieve 100% completion, I just want to enjoy the game. That's what it's for, right? And look how many people say it ruined the game by having so much money. I have to laugh because it makes me think of people saying, "Dangit hurry up so we can have some fun!" Totally missing the point. It's not the destination, it's the journey.
 
For myself the gloves came off when using their "microtransaction" system results in one paying nearly $150 real money for one virtual car.


It's a joke calling this system micro. Nothing micro about it.

I got this feeling of being at a high end car auction. Seeing all these fine autos I really want to own. Reality is I can't afford them. I play car games to get the chance to drive those. Now with GT6. I got that same feeling of being broke and not being able afford anything. That left a very bad taste in my mouth.

So yea no guilt what so ever.

Had they offered a fair deal on credits. Then sure. I'd paid up.

Make a pack where we get all the 10 million cars for like $20 and then $1 here you a million.

This would of been closer to microtransactions.
 
Up, Up, Down, Down, Left, Right, Left, Right, B, A, Start.

There's a certain point when playing a game starts tinkering with the cost of real racing, that raises some eyebrows. $150 is a race tire.
