Why the 20 million dollar limit is so good.

Why exactly would you want more than 20 000 000 credits in the game anyway? To grind to 40 000 000 credits is gonna take as long time as grinding to 20 000 000 credits twice.

Because as mentioned, it would be nice to not be completely broke once you buy a $20,000,000 car. I'm not looking for $40,000,000, more like $50,000.

I'd actually prefer to see PD keep the current credit limit, but decrease the price of the $20,000,000 cars by around $50,000. That way you would still have some money left to change the oil & buy some tires. It would also make people work for the penniless trophy.
 
I'm okay with a limit, but not with something so low.

A Ferrari 330 P4 with 471Hp after (break-in at +/-300Km) which weighs 792Kg

Top speed 340Km/h
on Racing Soft no engine upgrade
BUT with reinforcement bar.

Smoked the Mc Laren F1 GTR Race Car '97 in Circuit de La Sarthe of Gran Turismo World Champion Expert. Lap time: 3:57.xxx

You call that slow??!! ha..ha..

It drives better than the a Ferrari 458 Italia...

it really worth the 20,000,000. duped me two(2) of this beauty... before they resume the limit via 1.07 update.
 
I disagree i think GT5 shouldn't have credits limit also the resale value of the cars should be increased and those 20.000.000 cars doesn't even catch my atention beside the X2010, i would prefer to give 20.000.000 for the JGTC cars than the those that have this price.
Also making money to buy one of those is a pain in the *** since money given in the championships isn't much and to had to that there are cars that we can't even sell wich i think is bad.

what i wanted:
unlimited credits
value of resale cars increased
increase of credits at least in championships(not in individual races)
decrease in the price those 20.000.000 cars except the X2010
 
Some people just ask for us to violate the AUP. Sad part is,this one's not even worth it.👎
Nope, just explaining my view which is different to yours and many others on the current conversation, I did it without violating the AUP, why cant you.

Ruining the game? I'd say that this part of the game has been ruined already.

There's still something special when you see one of these cars on track and wonder what they look like inside, how they drive etc. But yeah, that feeling is diminished.

The only one I'm missing is the Ford Mark IV and coincidentally met somebody who had it last night. He told me it's a nice drive and that it has an awesome sounding engine. He let me borrow it and it was true. As soon as I hit 20mil, I'm going for it.

The marketplace only got 'ruined' after PD added the ability to dupe via the savegame glitch.
I'm glad that you still get that feeling when seeing a certain car online, I imagine that was PD's intent. I just think it was also meant to include 'rare' cars from the UCD.

1: I am pretty sure the UCD is not random.

2: Rare is only an issue if you don't want to go into a license test and skip 5 in a row.

3: No one ruined your game, they just ruined an opportunity that you might have had to profit off someone elses impatience due to the nature of a semi chance system.

TL; DR you are complaining becuase you perceive a missed opportunity to profit off someone elses misfortune in finding the car they want in PD's painful UCD.

RE:1. No the UCD is not random, and at some stage everyone will have had the ability to buy every car that eventually cycles through it. Some will just have cars earlier than others, some wont have the money to buy those cars.

RE:2. Skipping through five licence tests just to cycle the UCD doesn't seem right to me, again something I think PD should alter, maybe having the UCD cycle on a real time basis rather than in game basis.

RE:3. Welcome to trading.


Again, I'm not trolling or looking to absolve this conversation into a interwebz punch-up, rather I'm giving my view on this subject and whilst I recognise that it goes against the grain of the views of many here I still hold the view that this is what PD had in mind when creating the gifting and UCD. :sly:
 
I agree with the OP.

This thread is full of proof of today's 'I want it now' mentality.
That's a logical fallacy as it concerns this issue: those that don't 'want it now' are forced to spend now. Those with an 'I want it now' mentality, as you say, are not affected at all.

As for realism, my bank never tell me "Sorry, you can't deposit any more money, you must withdraw some and spend it first". It's just part of the strange economy design in GT5.

...the Stockholm-Syndrome mentality of "Let'sdiscuss why <insert weird game restriction/limit> is really a good thing"...
Stockholm syndrome indeed :lol:
