Login bonus bug?

pzkpfw · May 13, 2015

Hi guys.

I seem to be confronted with a login bonus bug.

A couple of days ago I logged in for the 5-th consecutive day and was supposed to receive the afferent bonus. However, I was presented with only the 3-rd day bonus. I said "okay, I must've skipped a day". The login bonus got up to 4 yesterday and I logged in today for the 5-th day bonus, only to be provided with the 2-nd day login bonus...

Now, I don't have Alzheimer's and I'm pretty sure that today was the day for the maximum bonus. Has anyone experienced something similar recently? I know there was a login bonus bug sometime ago, but it only concerned some users and was supposedly fixed since. Is there anything to do?

Thanks.

You have to manually save if you don't do anything after the game starts. I know it saves automatically after the log in bonus pops up but it doesn't actually save the log in bonus.

Got caught out with that myself.

Well to me it saves the login bonus,
- login bonus pops in, game saves and i turn off the ps3.
Next day i come back to do the same and pick up where i left with the login bonus
So no problems here for loosing bonus after i turned off ps3 straight after automatic save, not manual save

Make sure you don;t start the game until the PSN sign in popup has confirmed you're signed in

It's never saved the bonus for me and I'm signed in a couple of seconds after I've clicked which profile to use. Then I start the game.

GT5 was fine but I've got used to having to manually save with GT6. It's only a few seconds to do it so I don't mind.

This used to work fine for me as well... until now. That's why I was surprised when it bugged all of a sudden. I never paid attention to whether I was logged-in to the PSN before starting the game and I never encountered this behavior before. I'm pretty sure PD changed something, somewhere. I expected for more people to have experienced this, that's why I posted.

Anyway, I'll just save manually from now on and see if the problem reappears. I'll update the thread if it does. Thanks for all your feedbacks.
