"oh its not harming anyone blah blah blah"

When they update the server for 1.05 patch. They also clear out all logs and activity. I sent a car at 12am Monday and can send another one at 9pm the same day. The one at 9 pm now set the clock for my next trade.

What are you saying here? I'm lost.

I installed 1.05 around 5 pm local time (12 hours after update release).

I traded a car around 7 pm local time (14 hours after update release)

I traded a car around 7 am local time (about 26 hours after update release)


When did the server clock start/stop/whatever? I'm confused. Is this something we can look up? When will I be able to trade again?

I think HN7 figured it out:

EDIT: So it IS now a literal 24-hour window from the exact time of your last trade.
 
Yeah!

damnit WHY only 24-hours for trade! :ouch: ONLY ONE CAR ! so long trade! >.>

Yeah, I have about 4 days of trades now that are waiting because of this issue.

Yea, and it has delayed three trades I had coming in, which in turn delays the trades I have going out...what a pain in the arse. :banghead:

People were changing their PS3 clock to advance to the next day and do 2 trade at once. Just my guess.

I tried this, does not work. The game will tell you that your date is set incorrectly, and when you try to trade, it says that you reached the daily limit.
 
I have had the same thing it seems. I know the last one I sent was yesterday but it says I'm over my limit and will not let me send one yet (will try again later tonight around the time of the last send). Will update.
 
Ok, I sent a car at around 2am last night and I just sent another car at 11:45pm today and it said sending completed.
The other guy isn't online yet so I can't confirm receipt, but I was under the impression that we now get a message saying 'you can't send another car today' if it's under 24hrs right?

My deals went through. It was 12 hours between sends... the 24 hour theory isn't valid IMO.
 
I wish i could send :-( I sent one last night at 9pm, but today it wont let me - says i have traded for the day which i haven't - hoping i can trade tonight at 9pm.

they could change this server side without a patch. It seems that it could very well be valid.

Its possible that if you made your trade before they put up the hotfix that you are able to trade again...
 
It's not actually 24 hours. I traded last night and traded again today about 20 hours later.
 
Well it wasn't 24hrs for me - just sent a car. Probably around 19-20hrs for me as well.
 
20 hours, eh? Well my Bob is on his last lap, so I'll try myself here in just a bit. I think I'm near 21 hours right now.
 
It has been exactly 21 hours 30 minutes since my last gift and it is still telling me I have reached my daily limit.
:(
 
Omg reading thru this thread 4 the first time tells me this:


... exactly, nothing! How could this possibly vary so much from user to user? Before anyone thinks of stickying this lets wait it out until we can see some consistency.

Would someone please devise a poll to determine how long most people are having to wait or what the specific change is?

Actually i think putting the blame on all the glitchers is a little harsh because although im not a big glitcher myself it benefits me and everyone else in this market and it is PD who have done this - which to me seems like too little, too late.

Their entire game was designed in this way to encourage online trading and community features, there was simply no way this game wasnt going to be exploitable.

If a new restriction has come in Im not too happy because i dont feel there should be any limits on trading whatsoever - i paid £40 for this game i shouldnt be restricted because of what other people want from their game - "why can't we all just get along?" lol :)

Just to update: Yes, the car turned up.

Prove it.

All you have is ranting, bandwagon speculation.

Let's not forget that you had to use an exploit to get around the 1 trade per day restriction in the first place eh...
