Gran Turismo 5 General Discussion Thread

dont forget

dont make me neg rep u bitch

wtf is this shit

Wow, really?! Wtf, Im at like 12 0r 13mil right now I think. Thats pretty lame.

I was saving up for the P4, so basically they took the other 300k I would have won for that race just so I can’t go over the max and now when I buy the car I won’t have a dime.

Thats gay as aids.

yeah but you will get a trophy for spending every last cent :retardclap

Thats been that way since day 1.
Another completely retarded feature of the game.

Just as I thought, I bought the P4 and am broke and now the Chaparral 2J shows up in the used car dealer.

I tried to sell some of the cars that I bought like the 787b or the Sauber C9 but they won’t let me sell anything except for a couple cars worth <100,000. This game sucks now, why do I have two dozen cars in my garage that I don’t want but I’m not allowed to sell them.

They change too much shit all the time.
You should be able to have as many credits as you want and sell what ever you want.

I don’t rack up more than 2 or 3 million credits anymore, once you get above level 31, its meh. All I do is race online or if I need credits, a seasonal race.

Pretty much. I just do the seasonal stuff, already beat everything but the endurance races.

bought the damn complete pack twice fml :facepalm

No worries man, I did the same thing except I managed to do it 4x. Call the PSN support number it takes 15-20 on the phone and then you’re moneys back in about a week. Plus you get to keep that shit.

emailed em earlier but just called and got it done. thanks!

So they have GT86 / BRZ in it yet?

so anyone else see this way to get $600,000 every 18 minutes on Bspec?

Anyone else see the new update and dlc coming Dec, 20?

Kazunori Yamauchi has announced Gran Turismo 5‘s next software update and new downloadable content will be coming on December 20, 2011. Via Twitter:

[Japanese tweet, translated:] GT5 next update, DLC, Christmas is one week later. On December 20. Tomorrow is going to be a press release.

[English tweet:] The release of the next GT5 update, DLC, and Christmas present is coming next week.

Polyphony Digital has already posted an online service maintenance notice for the date, between the hours of 03:00-04:00 GMT, so the new material should become available at that specific time.

UPDATE: Sony has jumped the gun a bit, posting all the information about the new content on their blog. Here’s a complete listing of all the new changes coming in GT5 2.02:

Users can now change wheels on Standard cars
The settings sheets will include a new ‘copy’ feature
In GT Auto, players will be able to see how the oil changes, aerodynamic parts, engine overhauls, and racing modifications will affect performance points and engine power, before and after their application
Free coupons have been added that allow you to wash cars, change oil, overhaul your engine, or refresh the car body in GT Auto (10 coupons will be distributed for free to each of those who have downloaded the 2.02 update)
Pressing the Square button in the car coupon selection screen of the Car Delivery will now allow you to exchange all car coupons at once, rather than doing one at a time
In screens where the [Garage] and [Driver List] buttons are displayed in the A/B Spec events, Special Events, and Seasonal Events, pressing the Square button will now show the [Garage], and pressing the Triangle button will bring up the drivers list
In My Lounge, the room settings will feature a new ‘Max. number of participants’ setting
In the event selection screen of seasonal events, there are now ☆(star) marks that show the number of Gold Trophies attained in each event
Improved racing sound effects
Elements of the steering assist controls (used when using certain controllers on Racing Karts) have been tweaked.
These new cars will also be available as DLC for $3.99:

2011 Mini Cooper S
2010 Volkswagen Golf VI R
2010 Volkswagen Scirocco R
2012 Nissan GT-R Black edition R35.

The blog post also confirms the Toyota 86 will be available for free in the 2.02 update, and the previous batch of DLC will now be available on all the user accounts of a PlayStation 3 console (they can be purchased from their respective dealers within the game).

Finally, anyone who purchased the first batch of DLC will receive a free “Gran Turismo Racing Kart 125 SP” along with five free “New Car Refresh” cards that reset any car in the game back to as-new condition, without losing any modifications that have been performed to it.

all I care about: Improved racing sound effects

Yeah that will be interesting. I also think it’s cool that we can finally change wheels on standard cars, and that they’ve included the production version of the Toyota 86.

Going to fire this up and test the FT86.
