Last night i decided to buy a new ps3 so i completely gutted my old 80 gig phatty and deleted everything with a factory hard drive reset.

I was still mucking around in the system afterwords (offline) and decided to throw gt5 in and do a couple races from the beginning.

WOW, I was susprised how much different the game was and how EVERYTHING has been tweeked, So much has been added to the game.

Noone sits back and looks at what it was like for us (Release day) guys but we are lucky that PD has put so much effort into making this game what it is today.

Thanks PD
 
I've always wanted to try out 1.00 to see how different it's really become...
 
Yeah, things have certainly changed since vanilla GT5. Fell really sorry for those without an internet connection.

Played on a vanilla version recently round a friends. Ouch. Needless to say, next time he is coming round here, he is bringing his PS3 so he can do an update. Poor man is still having to go back to the menu as he has no restart option....

Must say though, with all the updates, still surprised they haven't done anything for more A-Spec events. Want that above anything else right now

Isn't that what seasonal events are for 💡

Nope. Seasonals have never given me the sense of racing. Its just a chase the chicken scenario. To win a "race" you have to be going 4 or 5 seconds a lap faster than the fastest AI car on the road. Thats not real racing.

More A-Spec events, Arcades AI tagged on then i'll be more than happy

I agree about the (chase the chicken) part. I really can't see PD adding more A-spec races because they have chosen the Seasonal event route already.

Would be nice tho.
 
They can't change structure of either A or B Spec because of the imposed reason called "trophies".

And yes, you can now discuss 5 logical and another 5 hypothetical ways they could add them theoretically, but it will always come down to the fact how new events would upset overall trophy system for new buyers of vanilla game.

Trophies are pest. Kill them with fire.
 
I disagree. Trophies should not affect extra events. I hope we get far more for gt6. My biggest gripe with the game. Seasonals are great though I have nothing against them

Couldn't they add new events and just give the new races a different look like the DLC cars in the dealers with a colored corner or something. Have the trophies not take those new races into account.
WipEout HD did something along those lines when they added the DLC. They changed the trophy descriptions to say stuff like get all gold medals on the original campaign races.

When Shift2 added the Legends Pack, and the Speedhunter Pack, they added new career events...and new trophies to those events. So I dont get how that can be said.

You could still plat a game.

It just seems lazy on PD.
