You get a bonus for your Collector Level and your Circuit Experience completion, it seems.
It'll be interesting to see if this applies only to quick races, or across the economy (like the PP/login bonuses from previous games) - could have a massive effect on the in-game economy

From the sounds of it, it's only for quick races.
 
With people complaining before the update drops, It’s like that scene in Die Hard:



I'm now interested in seeing the full patch notes tomorrow (not that I ever wasn't interested).
Indeed. A nice surprise of new aftermarket wheels would be lovely.
 
Not that I'm not looking forward to the update, I am. But just had a thought. If they have released a snow/winter circuit in November, I wonder if there will even be an update for December. At the very least if there is, I'd doubt it would have another new circuit, as surely you'd save the snow track for December.

I'm definitely thinking too far ahead with that lol. The update should be quite cool. Something that intrigues me is that WTC 900 is now a thing, which are most likely Gr.2 events

Because snow is cool? Because it opens up a lot of gameplay possibilities now that 250+ cars can be tested and raced on three different snow layouts?

The update will likely add more permanent and/or rotating events for the dirt tracks, too. Maybe Sophy can give us a tough enough challenge at Fisherman's Ranch.
I don't think Snow really changes anything about the game. GT does off-road events badly, it isnt rally, it isnt rallycross, it isn't ice racing, the grip physics and soft barrier mechanics suck.

Online has been stale for ages and frankly I think they're better off giving us a new track that they can use across online and offline for multiple different categories rather than a snow layout, which they've never used widely in any GT game.

I do have concerns.

I'm kinda worried they're going to decrease the payouts for the big 4 races and increasing the legend cars prices even more.

Hopefully it's just in my head.
Since you asked so kindly, and I really appreciate you giving me the benefit of your doubt: so let me explain:


Lol

It's been a long day at work, lots of unnecessary poo poo situation at work, mixed with the exciting 1.40 news, I tried to fit in here and there throughout the day, seconds of checking the news on GTP.

When I quickly read yours, I just agreed with you and would hate the scenario you described to be true, so my knee jerk reaction, before moving on to my actual poopoo work, not to you, but rather at the described theoretical situation, I would also poo at that...

So the poo wasn't directed at you.

At the same time, rather than being positive, I just didn't know/understand why you had to interject negative thoughts on this day of good news. I know you have concerns, but just enjoy the ride... Don't be throwing poo too ;)

Don't clutter your head with poo ;)

Cheers mate

I am now home, PS5 boot up .. all is good

Oh don't get me wrong, I'm insanely hyped for this update surprisingly but maybe I'm just trying to keep myself from expecting too much lol

Either way it's all good.
 
Looking forward to trying the new content. I still wish that GT Sophy was a selectable opponent in the World Circuit events, as oppose to just Quick Race - at least that's what their wording suggested.

I hope the expert race in the Weekly Races is akin to the Chilli races, the AI actually put up a fight in those
 
Sport
 - Indicators have been added to the Driver List in the post-race screen to show the variations in the Driver Rating (DR) and Sportsmanship Rating (SR).

At least that :D

Literally unplayable
 
- The prizes for Quick Race and Custom Race have been increased. Credits awarded for these races increase based on the player's Collector Level and Circuit Experience progress;
Oh nice. Looks like the payout increase also applies to Custom Races. If the new payouts are reasonable, it could alleviate one of the biggest pain points of the singleplayer experience.

Now if we also get better AI (or even a full Sophy integration in Custom Races at some point)...
 
For some reason the RB X2019 Anniversary Edition does not count towards the Red Bull X menu book completion.

That, and all the cars available as rental cars in Quick Race, Time Trial, Drift Trial and Custom Races (even including split-screen).
 
Game crashed on me while trying to join the Paddock
Maybe servers are not live yet?

I just hope those rewards will be at least on par with World Circuit events :)
