I know a man who has already spent 200 Euros in game for cars so I think he is the target for polyphony.

We are useless for them

If you compare lets say 10 milion credits for

a) 100 euros - one guy will buy legendary car
b) 10 euros - 10 guys will buy legendary cars.

If 10 times more people have access to a legendary car, it is not more such an legendary car, right? Someone who want's to pay will pay, even if the price is high.

The guy who paid EUR for the cars feels unique because "he has them and others not".

He used to pay 500 EUR monthly on microtransactions in GTA Online and some weird mobile game for years.
What an idiot

not you, your friend

Even if I had €1 Billion on my bank account and would not pay even €0.99 for microtransactions EVER, for me that is like an insult that I'm so bad in a game and need to buy myself a better stuff to progress.

Old school PS1, PS2, PS3 games taught me that to get better in games you need to - PLAY and get better, not PAY to get better. But new generation of gamers are taught just the opposite. look at GTA Online, Fifa FUT etc ... just buy, buy, buy credits as long as you have money and you will get better stuff.

It's really disgusting that even PD has turn to the dark side, I guess eventually every one will
 
Boycott is silly.

Make noise. Complain on social media. Complain to the media outlets. Create memes that hopefully go viral.

Once noise is big enough it travels further and then Sony / PD are forced to find a solution to stop the complaints.
 
COME ON GUYS...CALM DOWN...
IT'S JUST A GAME !!!
It seems rather odd to say "It's just a game" on a forum that was originally created by avid dedicated fans of the series. Also seems weird to say that "It's just a game" when this very series has led to the real world motorsport career of some fortunate fans. But hey it's just a game so what do I know.

Not really...

This 'just a game' is a product that customers paid 70-100 dollars or euros for it and it's not working, plus it was false advertised.

Imagine you buying a washing machine and it doesn't work, plus it's noisy even though in advertisement they said it is quiet, or it doesn't wash well but they said it is one of the best out there in washing, or is slow... you get the point...

Would you say oh calm down it's just a washing machine?
 
I ordered Elden Ring and will just play that until this mess of a game is satisfactorily sorted out.
It's a pretty great game. It does challenging but rewarding a whole lot better than GT7 seems to, and with no microtransactions at all.
As a Japanese can you reach out to the developers easier for the complaints?
No. I mean, unless you went and stood in front of their office or something, but that's neither easy nor productive.

I was thinking about writing complaint mail to them but in Japanese language or such. But he said he's not Japanese so yeah that's nothing now.
 

It's pretty good, even with Japanese. If you keep your sentences simple and clear, it will have no trouble translating to something easily readable by a Japanese speaker.

Dunno who you think you're going to send it to that it would need to be in Japanese though.

I don't understand why you'd say this. A person can be fluent in a language that isn't their native. Chances are more than half the people on this forum have a native language that isn't English, yet here they are fluently speaking the English language they've learned.

Large companies tend to have client out reach (Or I think that's the job title) where that persons job would be to check social media and feedback websites to gain feedback on their product. I would tweet at Playstation and the Gran turismo twitter accounts as that is probably the best way to get your point across.

I am sure they will feel the daily player base decrease soon. It's also a big turn off for me with that credit economy.

Spamming Kaz Twitter Account in japanese would work at least that he can't unsee our complaint. Or just the regular GT and Sony PlayStation Accounts in english.

Yeah it's true it dropped to 0 now due to the cirumstances. But even if everything is fine again. These low payouts and monoton grinding will make people leave who aren't into online racing.
 
Guys the time is now to show them for real he mentioned microtransactions in his "apology" saying he doesn't want us to have to use them but yet slashes all the prize payouts in half and even greater than that. Sorry it's bs to me guys and apparently alot of ppl agree cmon let's not give in to it!!!


Also you can check my page on the game I've grinded to the tune of 31.5 mil collector level 40 this is why I'm upset about it

Unless you want to wash your clothes by hand or not wash them at all, a washing machine is an essential item and a major inconvienience not to be working as sold.

GT7 is a game. A game that is constantly getting patched when broken. You can always play another game whilst the next hot fix comes around.
