[ausjager1]

I'm in Australia and downloading 1.06 right now, it is 301MB.

301MB

It says 200mins to download though. It should take 10-20 mins with my connection. Anything through PSN is usually fast. This speed reminds me of the early GT5P updates that weren't using PSN.

Possibly due to a load of people downloading it, I guess? I'm going to check now...

I know the server is undergoing maintenance,but what gets me is when you go to their website there is no details as to what is going on.

Maybe they should get rid of the message "for more details,please visit the following site",because when you go there you have no details.

I'm not mad or anything,i'm just saying.

They have to leave that message there, its typical PD fasion.

Downloading the update. It's slow.. will take 30 mts.

Exactly, it's so you don't get confused and think they might have actually started communicating with their customers. You don't even want to know what would happen if there actually was a status update on that site...

Fully customisable gear ratio's are now in. Thanks PD 👍

 

[shirakawaa]

Download speeds suddenly increased to the maximum allowed by my connection (800 kB/s). I wonder what happened. 70% right now.

Fully customisable gear ratio's are now in. Thanks PD

What about any actually new feature?

 

[ikarys]

So I thought that each patch was meant to include the previous patches, however this one is much smaller than the last.

Perhaps this is only if you have not previously got the other patches.

18 seconds remaining

[tecknical]

Can anyone post a list of all the changes they found?

 

[schigara]

Central time US...............still cant log in to PSN.

 

[diegorborges]

GMT -3, still nothing

 

[sesselpupser]

Sweet, updating now. I'll have a good look around and let you know what I find...

Oh wait, maybe not, 55 minutes left. 300k connections will do that.

 

[Risco]

I can't get this as too late at night and in the middle of a 4hr endurance with BOB. Can people check the following for me:

1: Can you still use the X2010 in ANY race Inc endurance?
2: Have they fixed the AI drivers always choosing the wrong tires when it is wet or raining?
3: Is Gran Turismo anywhere available?
4: Has the earnings gone down for races like was said. Easiest way to tell is check the American Indy race, does it still give 117,000 credits?

Cheers
