Forgive me father, for I have sinned,,

I'm duping my cars painted with the dlc paints, thanks to the unique way PD has implemented this flawed system. I have a hoard of expensive or elusive paints on a secondary account, and regularly duplicate them across then re-establish the save, which technically constitutes theft. I run remote races from several secondary accounts, so I can get all 6 of my main account drivers into the money, and the other accounts are always flushed back to level zero. Used to rubber band, until PD replaced concrete walls with custard ones.
I regularly grind the seasonals for materialistic wealth, and have no issues with smashing off any ai opponent that dares to cross my driving lines. (I've even been known to pull the guy over for ruining a particularly fast lap) I'm also partial to driving through chicanes, or using extra bits of track to get better lines into corners, sometimes going completely out of the accepted realms of the circuit. I've also taken excessively overpowered cars into events that would be simple in any car just to go on a smashing spree and the easy win.
I've exploited PD's programming weaknesses to drive through and hide behind solid walls during a hide 'n seek event online. (once, just for a giggle, as everyone had headsets on and the reactions were epic) I'll grind the heck out of a ticket in order to get what I want, and have even stuck with a ticket 1000 to get something worthwhile, a feat which can, and has, taken hours.

To be honest reverend, I think I'm done here, I'll never be cured, as everything I've done before I'll most likely do again.
 
Spammed '67 ticket to find the 2J and '44 ticket in the first days to get some cash.

I did rubberband Indyspeedway in the X2010 to grind cash and XP.

I did the Ssr7 money glitch too.

I must admit, I punted the first car in the last corner at Tsukuba to won the Lotus Elise Expert Event in the seasonals. But i did the Fiat 500 and Scooby legit!
 
Traded for an X1 to go through B-Spec... and some corner cutting in Trial Mountain... I can't help it, I've done that since GT1 :nervous:

I also tried to do the Nurb. glitch several times... but I couldn't finish a single lap...
 
I duped quite a few cars before the game screwed me with the corrupted file problem 6-7 months ago :) Since then my only sin was using the X2010 to complete a few endurance races.
 
Get the Sauber, when I first started GT5 by b-day glitch, also did the same for most of the 20mil cars

I did the birthday cheat 3 times for 1967 to get the Muira, Ferrari 330 and Mark IV. Took ages! Kept getting some other random crap cars from that year. Thing is, I done it about 4 months ago and never even completed a lap with the 330 or Mark IV

Sacrilege! The 330 is amazingly fun to drive.
 
The only thing I have done, which I would class as cheating is setting another account on my PS3 so that I can run remote races using 6 of my main account b-spec drivers through the night with a widget.

6 times the xp and money evey time :)
 
Shame on us, this site has over 200,000 registered users, and we are the only 40 cheaters so far, everyone else being 100% pure and clean drivers/players :)

what's this birthday glitch?

Everytime its your birthday, you get a ticket which can give you almost any car. From what I gather, people change their birthdays to continually get tickets.

It's more complex that just changing your birthday :sly:. You have to create another PSN account, set that birthday to todays date and the year of your choice. 1967 is good cos you get a random car from that year given to you. 1967 has something like 6 cars, and 3 of them are 20m credit ones.
Become friends with your 1967 fake PSN name, long in under your 67 name, and give your real profile the gift ticket for the car you got.
Still following?
Then quit, log in under your real name, and get your gift ticket. Important bit now, quit GT5 and back up the save data onto a USB. Go back into GT5, and open your gift ticket. If it isn't the car you want (mark iv, ferrari 330 or miura are the ones to get from 67) you have to quit the game and restore your save file from the usb and try again. Think that's all the steps. Sounds long, but it takes about 10 minutes max. Hard bit is when it keeps giving you the wrong random car over and over again. So do it in a year that has a high ratio of good cars.

Here's the cars you get from each year:

You can see that '67 is a good year! I also did it in 1985 to get the RS200 Rally Car. Few good cars that year too.

You can also dupe the ticket by sending it to one of your accounts then backing up your save file. then send it back from your other accont and you have 2 now.
 
I dupe before trading (I don't care about that so much), but I also reloaded tickets to get expensive cars for free and grinded the Ferrari seasonal till I couldn't take it anymore.
 
Last year, a month after getting the game. I was desperate to finish the Special Events, and I cheated on the Nascar Challenges by turning off the ASM.

I also cheated in the Loeb challenge by turning on the Skid Recovery assistance just to gold them as quik as possible to get the prizes... I feel dirty for that since I´ve never used assists since they first appeared in GT2.

One step you forgot: Fist SAVE your 67 game to a USB, then when you've sent it to your main, get it back from the USB. Both accts. then have the ticket. Ticket duped! :lol:
 
I use the computer drivers as walls and will cut corners to save time in offline lol.
 
This thread has given me the great idea to create a second account, so I can dupe the lvl 21, 22, and 23 tickets from the Expert Challenges.
 
For me, its the rubber banding first. Second, SSR7 glitch, Third, Sarthe grinding.
Didn't have time to try the nurb glitch.
Man, you need to make a poll :)
 
I just do what most people do, have 2 accounts so i never lose my rare paints & can take advantage of all the tickets I have.
 
To the peeps talking about "rubber banding" in this thread: Don't you mean wall riding instead? Isn't "rubber banding" the thing where the AI adjusts dynamically to the player's skill level to keep the player challenged?
 
Got probably around $100 million, give or take a bit, on the La Sarthe Ferrari seasonal. I've spammed a '67 ticket for a Chapparal 2J, and I've spammed a 1000 ticket for 3 hours and got an Audi R8 LMS.

Yes and no, the "rubber banding" refers to the act of rigging the ds3 pad up with rubber bands to keep the accelerator and steering setup to run by itself. This does involve the wall riding too though.
