I just got one yesterday on a four star ticket, I don’t need it, wish I could give it to you. I’ve been waiting for a Ferrari invite for another Enzo. Hang in there you’ll get it.Been playing for more than a year and I still haven’t been able to get that stupid invitation to buy the Bugatti Veyron. This is getting to the point of being ridiculous
I am as well. I am missing Aston Martin and have got multiple invites from Bugatti, Ferrari and Porsche.Been playing since launch (with several big breaks granted) but waiting on the Citroen, Porsche and Lambo invites still
I don't need to point out the month we all got all of the invites again, do I? I mean, I appreciate it was a lot of money to take advantage of them all that early in the game's life, but we did all get them.I'm still waiting on the Citroen and Ferrari invites. Since launch.
only if we were playing during that period, I was playing before and after (but either way I was struggling so much to get credits that I doubt I would have been able to buy all those invite cars)but we did all get them.

Yes. I'm not sure why that's a consideration though...only if we were playing during that period
Literally addressed in the quote:Completely meaningless when you either needed to grind forever or break out your credit card.
It was also the update that added the rewards for Circuit Experiences (1.11), so there was plenty of cash floating about - making grinding and credit cards moot. If you'd already done them all, you got ~47m dunked into your piggy bank, and if you didn't then you had 30 days to do about half of them.I mean, I appreciate it was a lot of money to take advantage of them all that early in the game's life, but we did all get them.

Gran Turismo 7’s Invitation System Is Broken: Here’s How We’d Fix It
The recent Gran Turismo 7 update 1.46 has again thrown a spotlight onto one of the game's least-loved mechanisms, which we think is long overdue an overhaul: Invitations. It's come to the fore again due to the new "Ferrari 12-Cylinder Engines" Extra Menu Book, which sets you a challenge of collecwww.gtplanet.net
Yeah of course, as if everybody just jumps into the CE car and gets millions 5 minutes after. Currently I am at 20% of golding all CE (the easiest ones), so no moot grinding for me, it would have been days of Sardegna or Tokyo (which is why I stopped playing in the first place). Now the experience is better with TTs and weeklies. And I auto-grinded at the end of last year to top up the credits and not the issue anymore, I just enjoy the game now, no matter how low the prize is.It was also the update that added the rewards for Circuit Experiences (1.11), so there was plenty of cash floating about

It wasn't an exploit. PD gave everybody all the tickets for a month because they broke them in 1.11 (the update which added the big Circuit Experience reward money).Well excuse me for not exploiting the system, which I'd done on purpose.
The v1.12 update fixes this issue and also gives Invitations for all 10 cars to all players, allowing everyone 30 days to scrape together the necessary funds to buy the exclusive fleet which costs 22.6m credits combined.
OK, then I misremembered, sorry for that.It wasn't an exploit. PD gave everybody all the tickets for a month because they broke them in 1.11 (the update which added the big Circuit Experience reward money).
Gran Turismo 7 Update 1.12 Now Available, Fixes Invitations Issue
The latest update for Gran Turismo 7, v1.12, is now available, weighing in at 312.5MB on PlayStation 5 and around 160MB on PlayStation 4. As you can probably tell from the relatively compact size, it doesn't bring any fresh content to the game, making it likely we'll have to wait a week or two bewww.gtplanet.net
Indeed, which is why I've not only said several ways that such a system could operate and be more fun and representative of real life but also written a whole-ass article about itThe system remains annoying though.
I almost think it would be better if people quoted their number of hours played rather than the fact that they've been playing since launch because I find it hard to believe someone who's played since launch could still not have received three of the invites unless maybe they've not played all that much since launch. I've had the game 10 months and I've received all the different invites several times. I didn't buy several of them the first time I got the invite though because it was early in my GT7 career and I didn't realize the nature of their rarity. But I've now got all the invite cars...the last being the awful Citroen a few weeks back.
Thats not to say I think the invite thing is a good game element...It's not. It's moronic.
ah ok well that does make some sense then. I'm over 900...600 hours if you’re interested
sure true enough but even so I'd think number of hours is more useful than just "been playing since launch"Since you only need a daily ticket to know if you get an invite or not, playtime is irrelevant. A custom race on an oval in a Tomahawk would get you the daily distance in minutes

doesn't resolve it at all. I certainly wasn't thinking it was any sort of solution to the problem. But it does help to kind of suss out the timeline people can expect for the invites to appear.I mean, it gives you an idea how much individuals have played, though I don't see how it resolves the waiting some have gone through for these invitations.
exactly where I'm at now. I have all the invites, all the LCD and all the UCD cars. Still have about a hundred BC cars but no fake scarcity there to worry about so no rush. It's nice to not have that weird FOMO element to deal with anymore. I've gone back over the past couple weeks and knocked off golds in 7 or 8 of the CEs as I find them far less aggravating without the extra layer of angst about trying to rack up credits to buy some specific big-money car. I don't find the CEs to be a particularly good solution in response to the grinding issue. I need time certainty when it comes to grinding credits up...and with the CEs (as far as gold is concerned) I know for sure it's at least a one hour commitment and often more. Sometimes significantly more. And I don't know going in how long that might be. Sardegna is 1.5M per hour every single hour I commit to it.... I will finish up the LD later this month and can finally relax on the remaining 114 cars from Brand Central...
IMHO hours is not that efficient to convey a realistic measure, as you get one DW ticket per day, wether you play 10 minutes or 10 hours. And you can even spend hours daily in Scapes or livery editor and never get a ticket.I almost think it would be better if people quoted their number of hours played rather than the fact that they've been playing since launch because
Out of interest, how do you find that number out??IMHO hours is not that efficient to convey a realistic measure, as you get one DW ticket per day, wether you play 10 minutes or 10 hours. And you can even spend hours daily in Scapes or livery editor and never get a ticket.
We'd better ask how many DW tickets somebody received
