I think they should have done the same thing they did with cars in PS store except reverse use in game credit to buy TT download; seems fair to me.If Sony/PD want to monetise Gran Turismo without splitting the userbase. They need to double down on the mileages store. I wouldn’t be surprised if this was the original plan. But they where obliged to concentrate on new, free, car/track additions.
I’d pay for extra wheels, wings, splitters, steering wheels, roll cage etc. Could also add different helmets, suits, windscreen banners etc. Purely cosmetic stuff.
The current F1 champ has set some strong times to beat ...
Did he? That's my only problem with this DLC, how do we know that Lewis set it.
Well worth it for me considering I play GTSport a lot. Yeah it's a bit tougher than the licences but bronze is pretty easy for regular GT players, and at 100K credits that must be close to about a million for bronzing all of them. More fun than grinding too.
. . .
We're about the same pace . . .
Still recovering from 4 hours of hot lapping on the first day so I might jump on the pad for a few of the others.
Well I happen to love all the Gran Turismos. Sorry you don't like them and good thing there is Battlefield for you. As for grinding for credits you don't have too. Just do the Premium Sports Lounge under the Professional League. Use the XBow at N300. Racing Hards on the front and Super Softs on the back and easy on the turns. You can win in that car against the N1000's. Payout is $250,000 for 12 to 15 minutes of racing. 1 Million per hour. Fastest way I know to make money in GT Sport.Sorry everyone but I have to disagree and say this is just PD doing what they do best - and that's 'taking the piss'.
£6.50 to have a go at winning 100+m credits, ummmm, nope.
After putting up with GT5 prologue, the nightmare that was GT5, the absolute joke that was GT6 and now Esports prologue for the PS4, PD should be showing a bit of gratitude to their long suffering supporters - how about giving us the 125m credits for free?
Of course not, why should PD show a bit of gratitude to their long standing supporters, you know what, let's try to rinse some more cash out of them....
A few weeks ago I got a brand new, sealed copy of Battlefield 5 for £14.99 off a large national retailer, now PD wants me to pay £6.50 (nearly half of what I paid for a full game) for a chance of getting a load credits and cars we already got (or very similiar variations of)?
We have had to grind incessantly for months to get most of the 15-20m credit cars, now we have to grind (for what is going to be extremely difficult for 90-95% of players to achieve) another challenge and have to pay for this 'pleasure'.
Ohhhhhhh hells no......and once again....PD are taking the piss and showing they really don't understand (or care about) they're long standing (and suffering) supporters...
Suck my plumbs Kaz.
I'm off to the £14.99 Pacific to smack people over the head with a shovel 👍 💡 👍 - now that is value for money
Maybe they could do it the way Project Cars 1 did and as long as the host had the track or car pack it let everyone in the lobby race the track and cars too. I thought that was a cool feature. Plus it let me try those cars and tracks which I liked some of and then I bought it as well.Then let's say that the next FIA official series starts with a race at Grand Valley, but most people don't have it...
This is what "splitting the user base" means - it creates two (or more) populations, where one (the largest) has none of the DLC and can no longer take part, and one (the smallest) has all of it and is the only one that can continue to take part.
The FIA races would become a ghost town, where you'd literally have to pay the $40 to be able to continue to take part in FIA, and these events become pay-to-attend. They'd end up with D-ranked drivers qualifying simply through being one of the three people in their country that's bought the DLC, and the live events become a joke as the four morons who qualified by buying the track pack plough through everyone in turn one, and the decent guys wonder what the point even is any more.
This is why you won't see paid car/track packs.
New dlc coming this sprint. "Making of..."Did he? That's my only problem with this DLC, how do we know that Lewis set it.
Dr is measure of how well you do in sport mode races only, so you really can't use that as a measure of who can gold or diamond. I see plenty of e rated drivers on top in campaign mode.I think then we just have different definitions of "very large portion" then. 72% of the player base is DR D, 15% is DR C. I don't think many DR C/D players are going to get all gold, personally.
I'm not saying it shouldn't be difficult, but I very much disagree with the notion that although it's really hard, most people can achieve good rewards from it.
Don't be rediculous!!Did he? That's my only problem with this DLC, how do we know that Lewis set it.

More challenging than the Vettel X2010 Challenge from GT5?I've been playing GT since gt1 and imho this is the most challenging content yet and well worth the price of a couple of coffees. I'd love to see diamond levels added to all the campaign modes.
PS: As a matter of fact, my coffee tab while playing this is already twice what I paid for it and I'm not done yet.
I just watched a replay of that on YouTube and I don't recall spending an overt amount of time on it. I do recall the slr/nordshleif challange, that took a while, and that seems comparable to me.More challenging than the Vettel X2010 Challenge from GT5?
If you don't like TT's, definitely not for you!I've not bought it, as from what I've seen it's not worth it IMHO. I've never liked time trails anyway, it's one of my least favourite aspects of the game.
