The 50 Million Credits Club

[CBH]

It's stupid how many cars there are in gt6 because of the fact that you have to have absolutely no life at all, devote all of your time to the game, and suffer hundreds of hours of sheer boredom from repetitive grinding for cash, just to buy a decent amount of the 1200+ cars in the game. Even then, it'll probably take two years of constant grinding to buy them all. Then what about the cost of fully upgrading them? about 300k per car, except race cars.

You do not have to buy all the cars in the game just buy the cars you need, I would not mine if there were 2000 cars in a GT game, at lease you have a better selection of cars.

I've been at 50 mil credits for months. Yes I was one of the fortunate ones that took advantage of the money glitch when the game first came out. Had it not been for the money glitch I would have returned my pre-ordered game once I saw that you had no choice with your first car and all of the payouts were so little. I do hate it for those who missed out. I bought all of the 20, 15, 10 million credit cars I wanted at the very beginning. I also bought all of the cars I wanted too. I also have 4 of the 250 GTO Ferrari's that I could sell for a total of 24 million credits.

I've bought over 100 cars just for paint chips. I've bought more cars than I'll ever use as I only use maybe 15% of the ones I have have. So my question is this; how many of you are at the max on credits? I can't be the only one.

If PD would give us the community feature like we had in GT5 where you could trade/gift cars and paint chips I would be more than happy to help those who weren't so fortunate. I don't think they would ever allow us to give credits but to be able to buy a car and all of it's parts to give away would be a great thing.

Edit: This includes those who didn't do the money glitch at the beginning as well. Those that didn't do the money glitch, how long did it take you to get to max credits?

As your friend @Racin510s I have a bit of friendly criticism for you in regards to the part of your OP that I have bolded. It does in fact come off like you are boasting here, again, for like the 5th or 6th time. I have read almost the identical boastings from you in other threads, namely the Seasonal threads. It seems as though you like to continually let the community know that you have been at 50 mil credits for months, all the cars you have, and how you indeed did use the money glitch to get them all. And now, you go and create a whole thread to announce your accomplishments. Come on friend, we get it already.

And again, that's not how the game was early on, when we really needed to build a garage quickly to go racing online. Most of the early TT's and Seasonals were very low paying and there was no BSpec until last week.

No, early on YOU had the glitch!

 

[Racin510s]

The OP has been changed. I apologize to all of you. @GTP_CargoRatt is absolutely correct. I have done it as he said. I didn't mean to brag but it seems that what I did. This is my last post in this thread. If others want to contribute please do.

Now you have made me feel like I have offended you. That was certainly not my intent in any way so please, don't take my post so negatively. I was merely pointing this out so maybe you could understand more why a few people would maybe have a problem as seeing this being a bragging type thread. Its like, we've seen this before (your OP) so we really don't need to hear about it again.....you know, that type of thing. I myself have been guilty of the very same type of thing, repeating myself over and over again in different threads, and really didn't even realize it until others pointed it out to me, which is all I was doing with you. So again, please do not take my post the wrong way. We have been friends too long and I would really hate to lose your friendship over something like this. Take care my friend and hope you feel better about things tomorrow.

The money is in the seasonal TT's, not the boring A-Specs.

And with B-Spec, Bob can grind 600,000 every 24 minutes while you are busy with real life.

Buy hey--if racing different tracks with different cars against AI or your friends' times is too boring, perhaps you should be playing Candy Crush instead of a racing game.

Yes, racing against the AI is incredibly boring in gran turismo, and my friends don't play it... B-Spec might be good for grinding, but you still have to be there to restart the race and tell him how hard to go, so not really useful unless you're sitting at home anyway.

To say I should be playing candy crush if I don't like the way gran turismo's credit system works is unbelievably stupid. Did you stop to think maybe I like racing games, but just not how gran turismo's career or credit system is organised? Or am I just not allowed to have an opinion on that? Is it a case of "like the whole game or go play something else"?

Also, as Johnnypenso touched on, the game was already old by the time they introduced seasonals that paid a decent amount, and b spec only just came out, so maybe it's too little too late?

 

[CBH]

Why do you don't like the credit system on how it works ?.

 

[Mike_grpA]

The races don't pay a lot, considering how many things cost money, and how much some of those things are. Yes, there are some events now you can grind for good cash, but even then it would take a very long time if you wanted all of the cars fully tuned. You can't say that the game is about driving the cars you like, not collecting all of them, because the arcade and career are probably the worst in any racing game since gt5, and comes across as a complete afterthought. The most fun thing about the game is collecting cars to a lot of people.

The races that do pay well were also brought into the game long after everyone who had any interest in the game had finished it. Seasonals are all very boring, and only pay well if you remember to log in every day. Which is fine if you play it every day, but some of us have a life, and can't turn the ps3 on every day.

The funny thing is, they had a far better system in gt4, where you could win a large number of cars in the career, which had much more variety and a lot more events. Being able to sell an expensive race car you won, and being able to win cars more than once, was much better than what gt6 has. But Pd being true to form, tried to fix what wasn't broken with previous titles, and left what was broken alone

Essentially they made the credit system in the game very unrewarding to try and push the micro-transactions on everyone. One of many reasons why gt6 has been a huge failure, relative to the other games in the franchise.

Anyway, we're getting a little OT, so I'll leave it at that. 👍

Thankyou for being honest and seeing it from other people's perspective. It takes a big man to openly admit to something in a public forum and I give you full credit for it.

Nobody but you is stopping you from acquiring the cars you want. The game certainly hasn't impeded your ability. Hell, the holiday seasonals paid more than 10,000,000 for less than an hour of driving.

You're still not getting it, some people don't want to play the offline game AT ALL. Some people like myself ONLY want to race online. Having a game where everything is locked from the start certainly does impede ones ability to acquire enough cars to be able to go racing online.

Oh, I get it alright. You can't be bothered to race for a couple hours to earn the cars you want. Boo hoo, that's such an onerous burden (which some of you exaggerate to absurd extremes) .

BTW, the seasonal TT's are online and they pay around 2.5-3 million for about 30 minutes of driving every two weeks. The Megane quick match is online and pays around 600,000 every three laps. The Senna events are online and pay handsomely. Do you lump these in with the "offline" races you detest?

What some of you don't seem to get is that I've earned around 400,000,000 credits in the past 12 months by doing NO grinding at all in that time. Yes, I did some grinding in December and January after the game's release, but not since. I don't consider it a burden to spend 30 minutes per week on seasonals, and I have no sympathy for people who do.

The part you aren't getting is that some of us just want to race online. We want to tune cars and race. Anything outside of that is grinding. Seasonals are grinding. Running the career is grinding. I don't buy games to do a bunch of stuff I don't like in order to get to the stuff I do like. Those games I tend to put down.

And again, you ignore the fact that money was not so easy to come by early on. TT's paid very little and when Seasonals rolled around their payouts were very low. Doing it the "right" way would take weeks and months of doing things you don't enjoy in order to have a decent garage for online racing. The only way the GT series accomodates those people is through a money glitch. It was great in GT5 and it was great in GT6. Hopefully it returns in GT7.

........................Essentially they made the credit system in the game very unrewarding to try and push the micro-transactions on everyone. One of many reasons why gt6 has been a huge failure, relative to the other games in the franchise..................

I bought US$50 bucks of credits at the beginning in the spirit of supporting PSN/PD with their microtransaction business model. Buyers of Credits like me were shunned as being to lazy to grind. Then, a week later I watched as users glitched tens of, and even hundreds of millions of credits for free. When I asked someone on these forums if they thought I deserved to ask PD to refund my money because my purchase had no value.....they said "no way dude, you got suckered into it, so tough luck"

Ouch............I guess we all look at this game a little bit differently.

 

[gamermaniac55]

If memory serves right, i have about 15 - 20 mil creds and about 3k miles. I will check later.

 

[eran0004]

I'll probably never reach 50 millions. I repaint my cars much to often for that

I hope that GT7 will offer a better offline career and a great online mode, because I can't imagine GT without offline events. I must be oldfashioned...

 

[BMWcrazy]

I buy tires and tune as many cars as I can.

I try to drive a different car in each seasonal event. It's quite fun.

 

[light driver]

How different we are. I constantly have 50mio credits. But I only have some 220 cars... And I`ve had the the game since Christmas 2013. I`m too lazy to buy cars. In GT5 I collected cars. In GT6 I only buy cars when I need to. OMG I`m lazy. Very...
