Im currently driving the 4WD Challenge Mt. Aso and it doesnt give me the % bonus anymore, only the standard prize of Cr.99.400. Anyone else have this or is this a bug?
Very confusing...

Tested on other seasonals and the bonus is gone!

:confused:

:(
 
Just saw there are threads about this already, but no fix apparently...

Maybe a mod could close this one, I can only move it? Thanks.

EDIT: Well I'll move it, actually this thread could be useful to make PD aware of the problem, so if you have this too please post here and also possibly SOLUTIONS you found.
👍

The 200% bonus still exists but you need to login everyday to keep the % up.

No, you didnt understand, it goes missing while Im logged in and it doesnt come back probably til the next day. Its a bug...
 
i can say i have the same problem, had 150% and was working logged in and it ame up as 170% but after racing i got just the regular amount with no bonus at all
 
One thing I noticed last night as I went to start one of the FGT Seasonal Races is that I got disconnected while at the race start screen. A message came up in the top right corner that I had been disconnected from the source or something like that.

Having read others experiencing strange disconnects in Seasonals, I quit the race without running it and when it went back to the GT screen, it automatically signed me back in. Then, I re-entered the Seasonal race and all was well with my login bonus %.

I'm wondering if there is an issue more with being disconnected, rather than the bonus disappearing, as many report it comes back later or the next day. If you blink, you miss the message and maybe these temporary disconnects are the cause of the lost bonus issue. Just spit ballin' here.
 
Something is not right here.

I've been on 200% since spec 2.0 update. Playing online everything was fine with the payments and XP. I then got disconnected went back to the GT home screen. I then did a seasonal race an I've lost my 200% bonus. even tried logging out & back in, still no joy :(

Cheers.
 
just done 4h enduro on nurb and received double monies like 900k and over 4.1 mil exp. that was surprise. so 200% works in my case
 
Mine has now just dropped back to 100% (should have 200%) after being disconnected from PSN. I've tried reloading the PS3, signing out and in again but no joy as of yet. Oh well, looks like i'll have to wait until later on and try again!

Was you playing online, like me, when you got disconnected??
 
Yes , I got disconnected, too, when it happened to me. Well it came back with todays login bonus so its not that bad, just for how long? :scared:
Also that was the first time for me I got a disconnect while being in GT life... So I think its to do with the patch, lets hope PD fix it soon!
 
I had the 200% bonus "disappear" yesterday. When I logged in this morning , I got the usual notification window popup when entering GT Life , it said my 200% bonus was active. It's back !

So far I've don the Ferrari seasonal at La Sarthe about 7 times and I'm getting the $33XXXX so the bonus is back .... for now.

I get a feeling it was a glitch from yesterday only , will find out later today I guess.

(BTW , winning some cool race suits here too , this seems to be one of the seasonals that has switched prizes since 2.0 , I'm sure it used to be helmet for 1st place)

You're probably right about the prize switch. I usually do a few 'races' at Indy, in the DTC seasonal, when I need quick cash. It gives suits instead of lids aswell.


Also, I started at 150% after the update and it's stayed that way ever since. So far I've done 24hr Sarthe(B-spec, 1 save in-between ), Tsukuba 9hr(B-spec), messing around in practice and am currently doing Suzuka 1000(A-spec). I'll see if there's a change tomorrow, but I doubt it.

Hey I think I found out what actually happened,

I started playing GT5 everyday again (was only playing in the weekend) a week before Spec 2.0 released. So when Spec 2.0 was installed, I was getting 200% straight away. But I was getting similar thing as you did for couple of days. First, I thought it was either GT5 froze I had to restart PS3, or quit the same. But NO

Here is why:
I notice 2 possible reason
- Whenever PSN network sign you off for some unknown reason
- Your internal network is cut off for a short period (Wifi or LAN)

No matter what you do, you will never get 200% back until next day. Which means at midnight past 12. Then you will be able to get 200% back.
 
Mine's still up, been logging on everyday since the update.

Just raced FGT World Championship in seasonal events:
$478,000 & 61,000 exp from the Grand Valley race.
 
Just either restart the system or restart the game. Mine was gone this morning on one account but there on another sub account.
 
Just finished Suzuka 1000(A-spec) and it's down to 130%? Haha! Maybe it has something to do with mid-race saves and not being able to access the GT Life screen since friday?
 
I had it this morning - but now, after turning the game back on this afternoon - gone. Tried reset and restart the PS3 - no good. Fix this please PD

Yes, basically, it seems that you receive your login bonus until you log out. Upon logging out and back in you loose it until the next day when you log in again. Log out can obviously mean disconnecting, router dying, power cut etc etc

I imagine its a bug that will get fixed
