I really hope this is true. As hard as I try to like it, I think GT Sport is pitiful effort for 5 years development. Even more so if you compare it to the competition, produced in less time.
Yes its a pretty game, stunning visuals but it is so dire in execution.
They pushed out 50 new cars in 3 months, so why did the game only come with 170 at launch? Also a hand full of tracks? 5 years what were they doing???? they weren't making a single player game, the late add on career mode is so rubbish. Other then grinding for credits is pointless, No exclusive cars to win, or true progression. Yes you get XP for winning towards higher tier races but you can also get that for taking 1000 photos, liking photos and so on, again pointless really.
The online could have been great, but instead its only great for the few! The rest of us are the fat kid in PE at school, picked last, to make the numbers up.
