And the ebay trading was of pre-order codes for stealth and chromeline cars.
[/U].

But its not, a quick search shows a guy selling X1's of your choice for $20. That more than anything is something PD are going after with this update.
It's not his property to sell.

When PD put the trade option in you have to imagine the intent was so you could give a car to your friends and not create the trading monster that has occurred. The 1,000,000cr limit should fix that, not sure what the 1 trade per day limit will achieve but it is PD's playground so their rules

Just did 2 searches on ebay, one was Gran Turismo 5 Redbull x1, the other Redbull x1....found a guy selling POSTERS of the x1 from in GT5 photomode, but noone asking 20 bucks to gift the car to you. I think you made that up buddy.

And what's a trading monster? You make it sound like the whole world cheated on GT5. How do any of you people know that the people spanking you online are using duped cars anyway? Because there are lots of x1's racin around? Any person with half a brain and enough time will win an x1 eventually, Ive won two already, 1 in the challenge and 1 in bspec. And any person with enough time will cycle through the ucd enough to buy some rare car you probably haven't seen.

If you're worried people are getting better cars than you to race online because of duping, you're probably just not that good at the game. Once you hit level 20 or so anyone can afford/find/tune a comparable/competetive car to race online no matter the specifications. So you're just not that good or...YOU'RE JEALOUS OVER A VIDEO GAME. THAT'S PATHETIC!

Why does everyone result to "oh your just worried cause people are getting better cars and your not good"?
He never said anything about that he was just talking about a seller on ebay selling an x1. If anything you're pathetic for using lame ass comebacks cause you can't argue with him.

All this talk of PD wanting to stop the sale of X1's on ebay... hasn't ebay shown that it's quite willing to work with corporations (Sony/PD in this case) to stop listing certain things, particularly if they are illegal or in violation of end user license agreements? PD could quite easily get all of the X1's listed on ebay pulled without imposing this 1 million credit limit on trading. I don't have a problem with 1/PS3/day, but the 1 million limit is just far too low. Two cars that pop immediately to mind as things gearheads starting out might be interested in are the Veyron and the F1 - you can't gift either to a buddy that picks up the game today.
 
It doesn't affect me, but the restriction should at least be restricted to one trade per PSN account. The one trade per console rule is flat-out unfair.

The thing that ****s me is I lent my 66 Jag to a friend so he could complete the Monaco race. Now if he needs something like that again and I can't help him he'll give up. He doesn't have the time to grind.
 
Worst part is Paints, I love trading cars back n forth just to get the paints, ruined.
 
like everything PD does, pointless and unexplainable.
Its perfectly explainable....They didnt like people cheating. So they fixed it in a heavy handed manner.

Kaz did listen - that's why the 1,000,000 CR trading restriction has been lifted until next week.

Exactly. I hope you cheaters dont use this as licence to cheat further. Kaz ONLY did this so that people that have loaned cars of over this value have a week to get them back!
 
Not a trader or duper, so doesn't really bother me either way.

That said, I can never tell what's going on with all the rumors and heresay. Does it work now or not?
 
The limit is just a dumb fix to people duping and selling high-end cars on eBay.

Which in itself is ridiculous because the buyers have access to the same cars by simply asking nicely. Shame that somebody's profiteering has to result in a crackdown against the rest of us. The one-send per PS3/day is equally dumb. They might as well have said, "If you have cars on your PS3 that you want on your main account forever more, send the best 7 you have back because after that you're screwed!"
 
No idea.
I only play GT5 on fridays for the seasonal events and then Killzone the rest of the week.
Thanks to the anti-duping whingers I'll never finish collecting all the cars.

The set car online/ borrow will work for that.

You can still dupe paint chips.

Not gonna deal with duping. I know you can dupe them but it was very convenient to just trade them back n forth...
 
yes i hate this rule so annoying with my 12 accounts i cant send new red bulls to my real account or new F10s or 2J races.... which i earnt myself by playing stupid indy 5 billion times... (lap record.. 30.122)
anyway drop the 1 send per playstation...

:confused: Whatever works for you.
 
To all the people that think this is a good idea because of duping are idiots. What someone else does with thier own game that they bought with thier own money and play in thier own place is of no concern to you. It's simple, if you don't like duping, don't do it. You are simple if you allow what someone else does with the game to bother you.

I share my console with my brother which makes collecting all the cars near imposible. We don't have a lot of money and can't affort two consoles so sharing one is hard enough. Sharing it every second day to trade is going to be even hard. We won't be able to collect all the cars until GT9 comes out on the PS5.

It should be removed... it shouldn't have been implemented. What blows is the fact that this could be a split decision and PD won't change it. Thanks to the morons that vote without considering all sides and or let what other people do bother them. Good job knobs.
 
Wouldn't the impending 1million value gift cap be more of a concern to collecting than the 1gift/console/day?
 
PD definitely needs to drop the 1 car per PS3 limit - completely unfair to families with 1 PS3 and multiple accounts. People sharing a PS3 don't get to trade ever because the other people using the same PS3 with a different account use the trade for the day. BS
 
Wouldn't the impending 1million value gift cap be more of a concern to collecting than the 1gift/console/day?

Not at all. I can buy 20 cars with 20 million credits in 1 day that are worth 1 million but i can only buy 1, 20 million credit car before i have to build all those credits back up to 20 million again to buy a second one. There are a few of them that are 10 million or more. The time taken to redo races to be able to afford them all would be astronomical. Now add all the cars that are worth 1.1 million to 20 million into the equation. Good luck buying them all.
Unlimited trade was so much more easier and made the game more enjoyable. Puting a cap on trade value is a bad thing.
 
For a lot of us, duping was a porblem in relationhip with illegal trading at Ebay or people duping car to get advantage against other users. (think about online playing).

What advantage does anyone get online with a "duped" car?

They could just as easily bought the car.

There are many multiplayer families on PSN and the PS3 and what they have effectivley done is restricted the userbase of GT5 to one person per household.

Probably one of the single dumbest moves ever undertaken by a game developer/publisher in a long time.

If there was a problem with people 'selling" cars on eBay, prosecute them, but dont make their problem reduce the entertainment value of the entire franchise for others.

There are - or should I say WHERE 3 GT5 players in this household.

What is the point of the other 2 players playing if they cannot share the game with their own circle of online friends.

1 trade per day per PS3 really does nothing to improve the game at all.

And to make matter worse, the 2 retired GT5 players cant even easily give their cars away to the remaining player.
 
What? Are you serious? Dude, come on. Do you really think, PD included this as a cheating platform for lazy loosers?
I never said cheating. I said trading. It was a means that one person could get a car from someone else without the requirements to get it, i.e. level requirements or money.

On another topic, are you retarded?

Pots and kettles.
 
I think PD is just following Sony's footsteps, have a cool feature, then remove it or severely gimp it later in an "update".

The fact that the seasonal bonus races' prizes have gone down, prize money for A/B-spec races went back to release day levels, and now these car gifting restrictions, PD really wants you to grind for money. They could have at least raised the payout from A/B-spec events, but didn't. Heck, you can't even sell cars that are worth more than 500k new, why in the world is this limit there? And then not winning prize cars after doing a championship again?

Where are the manufacturer/one-make events? What happened to the missions? How about El Capitan (just to name one of several "missing" tracks)?

In summary, at least let us sell ALL cars, remove the 1mil car value gift restriction (I can live with the one gift/console/day...). But from the looks of it, the 1mil limit is here to stay. Hoping for the ability to sell all cars in 1.08, not holding my breath though.
 
Keep the 1 car limit, but let's trade paints as we wish.

The paint chip system is so annoying.
 
There are 3 GT5 players in my household, And simply when I send a car to a friend that leaves the other players in my household unable to gift any cars at all , So once I use up a gift item ( swapping a car I earned for a car my friend Earned ) My fiance's brothers must wait for 24 hrs before they can trade their hard earned cars with their friends? Now that's harsh.

I understand that Part of the reason for this is unscrupulous people selling their duped X1 cars on ebay, Well that's easy to fix, Ban trading of the X1's and allow up to 5 cars to be gifted per day per account, Same for the paint chips, In fact, For Paint Chips, I think they should make it so that once you unlock *insert paint name here* you get unlimited uses out of it instead of saying to yourself "oh crap... I have a *insert paint name* and I daren't use it as I only have one :( "

I'm not considered a "Duper" as such But.. This would prevent people WANTING to dupe paints at least so they can paint their cars in whatever paint they want to without the worry of using up their only paint chip.

Hell, If they can restrict chromeline cars from being gifted and stealth cars, Then they should be able to ban the gifting of X1's quite easily.

But no, PD has chosen the awkward path and for the sake of a few insignificant turds, They have punished all of the Genuine players who Use the gifting system legitimately.

Bottom line -> remove the 1 car Per PS3 rule and increase it to a MAXIMUM of 5 per account, not by PS3 system, but By PSN ACCOUNT

( I don't want to gift one friend a car one night and have another friend wait 24 hours just so that I can send 1 car that I won fair and square and will never use or need ever again that cannot be sold * prize cars for example *)
 
Yeh i think it shoud go back to the old 1 trade per account. It seems logical especially the fact that some people have families. Bros n sisters, cousins and children and frens that have an account on the ps3 and play gt5. I guess PD didnt think of that.
 
Poll option: 'I don't really carey' is missing.

Another genius statement without any thought what so ever. If you don't really care, why would you want the option, moreover, why would you click that option if it was there?

That is your post and even if you didn´t use the word cheating, you explained how it works.

'Gifting', 'Trading', whatever you want to call it. It was a means for people to get cars without working for them. It was deliberately included so people could get that advantage. So actually you're a semantic pedant.
