Cheating on wife!

[BigMackAttack]

I'm not comparing them, but then again you illiterate Americans take everything so literal don't you?

At least we aren't the ones that constantly make Hasty Generalizations of a nation of 307,006,550 people.

I'm surprised you could read his post....I have no clue what he wrote. I'm going to go ask my roommate to read this to me...

Its funny, I cant read but I can type complete sentences???


Jeez we Americans are so primitive.

 

[slackboy72]

Good to see the moral high horse types are getting all sooky over people exploiting a (loop)hole in the game. If you didn't know it was happening would you still act like a victim?

 

[Beeko_111]

It's a joke right?

I mean not only the cheating on wife thing, but also the fact that you're married...

Yes married. I do have a life, house, business, family etc.

You must still be a virgin, stuck in front of your ps3 with your dream catcher tissues beside you.

After I did the deed I didn't really feel like racing, so i stopped.

Funny how it's the people who hate GT5 that are having a go at me.
Seriously, if you don't like it, go away. Stop ruining for everyone else by advertising these sort of glitches and finding them.

I got two rubber bands and a keyboard that are absolutely ruining your life right now. It's like I'm raping your wife, isn't it? Yeah, it's definitely the same thing.

"I used it for fun"
No, you didn't. There's nothing fun about it, it's obvious what you're doing and you know exactly why you are doing it. There's no way to mask this, if you're doing this, you're a cheater. I don't care if you say it's for fun or you're trying out for the first time etc.

If someone robbed your house and told you he did it for fun, would that make it more right? Would you sit on the grass with him and have nice chuckle together? No, you wouldn't.

I'm not comparing them, but then again you illiterate Americans take everything so literal don't you?
And get over myself? Sorry i'm not the one who exploits the game in a way that it makes the game not last as long and certainly ruins the fun. You're one of these children who wants everything "now" arn't you? Spoilt brat, that's the one.

Nice grammar fail there, using an adjective when you should have used an adverb. Honestly, I'm not sure why it's a part of this site's AUP, but that would put your violations at two since personal attacks aren't allowed either. Also, any time you use a metaphor, you are making a comparison. You can claim that you weren't, but that's a pretty difficult position to take after the fact.

I'm not really sure what your idea of "fun" is, but my ZR1 RM is starting to lose peak power after almost 18k km. I don't even want to think about how many of those were at GrIndianapolis. If someone wants to do donuts for 20 minutes for the credits and xp, good for him. I have most of the cars I wanted when I first saw the car list for GT5 and don't need A-Spec xp since I'm at 40 right now so I'm just doing a few events and checking the UCD for cars I might want. The alternative for me would be doing donuts and then power refreshing the UCD with the license tests. Which would be more "fun"? More importantly, why does it matter to you which of these I choose to do?

i just cheated 2, firts one : copy a daihatsu midget super tuned just to gift to my firends, and second one i received some cars from a friend (copy by accounts), but i dont like 2 do it, the most of my friends hav lots and lots of cars , only have 14X.., but i dont like to cheat, i was with a friend ready to race when i saw like 5 guys making the ssr7 glitch, i was like: cmon there is people who works hard to get money and XP , so im a bit annoyed (lol cheater)

See, there is a bit of morality involved in exploiting this SSR7 glitch. If one is apt to do this in game, knowing full well that it's cheating and gaining a ton of cr + xp that wasn't earned, what may that person be apt to exploit in their daily life apart from the game? If you've got the willpower to avoid the glitch and earn the credits and xp the usual way, it says more about you as a person than one who cheats the game. Personally, I could care less about those who choose to do it, but I haven't nor will I. I'm not perfect by any means, just have a higher sense of right and wrong than others I guess.

Now, having said all that, there's another way to look at the glitch. Remember easter eggs in software? Purposly built in hidden things that one could hunt for and exploit once found, albeit briefly and usually for a cheap laugh. A couple of the mario games had them as well. If you think of the glitch this way, it suddenly becomes perfectly acceptable to do doesn't it? I know the track wasn't intentionally made that way, but yet it was found by someone who was using their head (at least partially) and then shared that find with everyone else.

Look at it whichever way you want. Do it or don't. Feel guilty or not. Ultimately it's up to the individual until it is fixed. Of that I am 100% positive will happen in the near future.

So, your inept logic befalls on the foundation that if someone has the willpower to resist this God forsaken (yes, that's sarcasm) temptation to exploit the game to get more credits and xp somehow mirrors that person's real life capability of doing the same, in the sense of "right and wrong"? In the same vain, whether or not you actually do partake in said exploitation speaks of one's character?

I don't know whether to laugh uncontrollably or just genuinely be concerned that people, like yourself, seem to think that cheating in a game....or as us delinquents like to see it - playing the game as you see fit...somehow mirrors our real life personality and mannerisms.

 

[INSANENEIVIESIS]

there is no shame in cheating for xp or money. i got the 33 legit and its impossible to make it to 40 with out cheating. (yes ruberband is cheating sorry guys)

 

[slackboy72]

By maSonn's standards I've raped his wife, ransacked his home, stolen his kids and set fire to his dog. Woof. And then to really make him angry I duplicated his car and painted it in gold chrome paint.

 

[GT_Prologue5]

Play the game the way it makes you happy and disregard anyone that tries to say your fun isn't fun.

It's a video game. You're open to cheating if it's in the game. Using it or not won't make you a better or worse person.

 

[GTWelsh]

I play this game to drift and race tuned sports cars/race cars, with no money all I can do is grind which is crap. same car, same track over and over again, all I'm doing by "cheating" is making the better parts of the game, or THE GAME itself, accessible to me once again.

Its not bad to the game really, I dont play the game to make money (credits) I play the game to race + drift, money is no object to me on GT5, its the fun of the cars, so this is a win win !!

I think the entire argument could be summed up in:

If you ever don't take the moral high road, you will always take the moral low road.

As if that makes any sense... he who is without sin?

 

[g2010ag]

Seriously anyone who gets their panties in a bunch over exploits in the game is playing for the wrong reason. I don't play for points credits or xp. I play for recreation/entertainment. I used to spend hours trying to perfect my license test time long after the game said I was 100% in GT2. Because it was a challenge and I enjoyed it. I am only writing this now because I need a break from trying to perfect my time on the Vittel X1 challenge. I have the wheel and I am getting quite a work out. (Kind of like my Cocker spaniel chasing those rabbits on our walk this morning.) I might not ever improve on my bronze time but I am sure having fun trying. No I don't need the credits or the xp or the car or the bragging rights, just the challenge. Ok I am ready to go back, best time is ,6 off of silver but that i just for the first of the 3 races.

I think it says: the video game is not in any correlation to who you are in real life.

 

[alonsof1fan91]

I don`t get you people. It`s just a game. We all play it to have fun. GT5 makes fun for me when...

-...I have some really good races
-...I drive the cars I love.

Seriously, without trading or this exploit I would never ever be able to drive a MK IV, Miura etc. Before you high moralists are pointing the finger at me... I only grinded 8 million Credits with that exploit and NEVER duped a car.
I already got all the cars I love, so I can have fun with that game.

But what about other people who collect more expensive and rare cars then me?
You know how much you have to grind to be able to afford a 20 million credit car with indy98k?
Damn, It would be no problem if PD gave some more events with better rewards (And good prize cars!). The lvl 35 24Hr LeMans race brings less money then repeating the lvl23 American Championship Indy race 8 times (Thats not even half a hour!).

That sucks. Not those guys who are duping and exploiting. They don`t harm you and me. I`m glad that more people are able to buy the cars they love. Without duping/trading/exploiting we would never witness some old school online lemans races with a 330P4, GT40, MKIV, etc.


Its just a game! Its not "Second life: racing edition"!

 

[Madman Apex]

god, i must be the tiger woods of gt5 by now

!!!pure gold sir!!!

 

[USSoccerFan96]

since you say it "feels like cheating on your wife" I'm just going to assume you know how it feels to actually cheat on your wife.. lol

 

[rileyra]

Yup you have cheated in the game and defiled your soul...You must get a cat o nine tails and give yourself lashings to repent for your dastardly ways!

He'll probably be condemned to purgatory, until completely repentant.




Some guys take this gaming stuff a little too serious, I'd say.

Funny how you completely neglected to mention anything about the second half of my post. I suggested two sides of the same coin, but of course the one that's torn apart is the one that people don't like to think about. Cheating is cheating no matter if it occurs within a game environment, at school, at the grocery store, wherever. It's just more acceptable to do it in a video game because, well, it's "just a game" right?
If I were to think of the glitch as a kind of an easter egg, I would be inclined to use it for the xp increase so that I could get to a couple of the endurance races I want to check out. It's all in how you approach the subject and your mind set on it. Doesn't matter to me one iota what other people do with it. It would be nice if there were less rooms dedicated to it online though. Pretty clogged up at the moment.

 

[Superveloce2010]

you compare a game with a wife? , guess you dont even have wife because if video's games are just as important for you as a relation, wouw then you must be 1 big nerd playing GT5 all day long

 

[Zoom!Zoom!]

I think there is a huge difference in breaking your word or commitment and using an exploit in a game. When I buy a game I agree by default to keep it's copyright laws but nothing on how I play the game. I can burn the game if I want.
As long as everyone in the room online agree with the exploit than no wrong has been done. Now if you join a league or room where everyone expect honest racing then cheating does say something about that person.

Using exploits & cheats can take away some of the challenge of a game yet just like a board game when the game is over all the pieces are return back in the box. The end result is the same.

I personally think our culture put too much importance on games where someone make millions just throwing or hitting a ball around.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_contract

The notion of the social contract is that individuals unite into a society by a process of mutual consent, agreeing to abide by certain rules and to accept duties to protect one another from violence, fraud, or negligence.

The key here is that the majority have clearly agreed that exploiting the glitch is okay and that noone is being harmed by this.

All the whining by purists just serves to amuse our latent trolls.

True story.. The other day I found a wallet full of cash and turned it in to the store clerk where I found it without giving a second thought.

Today I entered a race that was using the exploit and my ps3 is currently rubberbanding indy so I can get the cash to play the Ferrari races. Am I a terrible person?
