I've made the tough decision. I'm officially downgrading back to 2.11. I'd much rather drive my unique creations then listen to whiny kids online complaining about how they can't use their X1 because of PP limits and such.
Goodbye GT5 online. Thank you PD for ruining yet another fun experience for us all.
Why are people getting in their feelings about this? It seems very petty to get butthurt about, in my opinion.
In a couple weeks there will probably be a new tool.

Not such the majority that you thought you were, eh guys?
Play fair, go by the rules and you may get what you wish for - or keeping on pushing at this and it will likely escalate to full-on IP bans. After all, you are all on a public forum and most of the more vocal modders have their PSN IDs on display - it wouldn't be hard for Sony to cross-reference...
That makes no sense at all. So your saying only 204 people are playing this game?Do you know how many of those who voted yes prefer to play online than continue modding ? If you dont update you dont go online therefore it will be moot for them to ban you from playing online...

KiroKaiDepends how deep you are into the game, how long you have been, and how much of an improvement (or game breaker, if you're a fair racer who strictly uses the game for racing and expect everyone to meet your standards of fairness) hybriding is to you.
The thing is, with improved lobby/general online play options PD could easily keep the 'real racing' from the 'messing around', and either could be devided into 'with/without hybrids' again as both existed since the game's release, but people didn't do such a fuss about either opposite playing style hurting them so far.

Oh the irony.
Nope. Not for a very long time. This has brought life back to the game and I don't need an online experience. I was a full supporter or Polyphony digital but this is ridiculous. They act as if this ruins the game, yet there are SO many ways to avoid modded cars. Spec rooms, hp/weight limit, COMMON SENSE.
It's a sad day for true enthusiasts in the Gran Turismo community until we find a way to get passed this disgraceful move by PD. I'll be staying offline for a while.. & Making sure this save is on my computer for when my buddy figures out another way past this. It will happen.
Until then I'll stick to F1 2012 and RFactor for racing against humans.
If you've got nothing nice to say, keep to yourself. Not everyone wants to hear your say on everything.
Well said Mitch as soon as I saw update I went out and bought the cheapest online racing game I could find and thought well this will do for now until gt6 when it's released.
Yeah, that's true. People were getting too out of hand with them. A stop had to be made.
See ya stop posting in the GT5 forums then! Go hack your other games.
Prove that he is lying?Yeah i'm sure you did.![]()
Geoffwhy not just adding an option in the lobbies ??? allow hybrids or not: simple as that...
i won't update now that's for sure, they won't take away my babies!
i'm bummed.
I do, he makes me laugh and Simon often makes very valid points. No need to go waving your handbag around just because someone got a laugh at your expense.
This update resets non-hybrid cars too? Are you kidding me?
Shh...you hear that? I think that's the sound of nobody caring!
Welcome to my ignore list.
This update sucks. I had hybrid cars which I made myself but was willing to make the sacrifice if it meant I could drag online. Then I get to know that this update resets your setup. Not only on hacked cars, but on your legit ones too.
This is why I hate PD for doing this update. I've put countless hours into tunning my cars, getting my transmissions, suspensions and LSDs to where they got me the top spot on the leaderboard on this site and another site contributed to Drag racing in GT5. So I'll update the game, and have no setups on my cars to drag online? Lose an uncountable amount of hours that I spent perfecting my tunes?
