Just wait until all these new players get access to the LCD, we can expect an influx of new members complaining about the economy
I accidentally sold my 917K...and I miss it deeply. Amazing,amazing car. 😥 😥So lemme get this straight. It says I've spent about 175.6m credits on cars, and I have about 225.6k collector's points. I'm positive that for each 1000 credits a car costs, that's one collector's point, so a car that costs 1000 collector's points is exactly 1m credits in value. If I subtract 176,620 from 225,599, I get 49,979.
Does this mean that nearly 50m credits is the total value of cars I've won? Like via the various menus, the licenses/missions, and random tickets? I only assume 20m of that value was from the Porsche 917K that I got from the Porsche time trials that were exclusive to players in the USA. Plus, I know I've won at least four cars from random tickets that were each worth 1m - specifically, a Ford GT Race Car '18, a second Ferrari VGT, a Porsche VGT, and a second Bugatti VGT. Then there were the 10m credits I was able to save myself by golding the Master Super License tests.
That basically means that when added up for value, over a fifth of cars I've acquired were for free. That's pretty neat.
The paddocks have never worked for me. Same issue every time i’ve tried, only tried like a few times since they’ve been a thing though.Anyone else having connection issues when trying to access paddocks? I keep getting the time out error CE-700181.
This is what people need to factor in when there are sometimes understandable complaints after monthly updates. GT7 had a big push from Sony in the January PSN sales and PD worked a short month due to the Holidays. February could be another quiet month if PD want to ramp up for a larger update in the Spring. Clearly PD aren't releasing anywhere near the content they're producing per month and need to factor in GT8's launch. They'll be mindful to time their updates to bring in new players and maximise player retention.I’m willing to bet that more than 80% of buyers have no clue what the previous update included. Many people just want a racing game for their PS5, and Gran Turismo remains the obvious choice.
It's the obvious choice because it's the only choice. There's nothing else like it on PlayStation.I’m willing to bet that more than 80% of buyers have no clue what the previous update included. Many people just want a racing game for their PS5, and Gran Turismo remains the obvious choice.
Verstappen be like "****... no, lol!"Wonder if Gran Turismo will get a new Maestro if that is the case?

Maybe, a good news for GT7.Not that it was expected, but Gran Turismo 8 will officially not arrive before March 31st 2025. Sony’s 1st Party focus will be new IP like Concorde.
What this does suggest is the big PS5 Pro marketing push will largely be focused around already released 1st Party titles (GT7, Spider-Man 2, HFW?). Plus whatever 3rd Party can showcase (GTA6?).
GT7 was always an obvious choice for a PS5 Pro upgrade. So I expect it to be one of the showcase titles for features like Ray Tracing.
Sony Interactive Entertainment will not release “any new major existing franchise titles” before March 31, 2025

Hamilton’s connection to GT is beyond just a marketing stunt, he is a genuine GT fan - it’ll just be a matter of if the marketing contract continues or not (or changes) with his switch to Ferrari. Mercedes was involved in the partnership so that could be part of why.Lewis Hamilton's 2024 driver cap does not have Gran Turismo on it so I wonder if that is the end of the partnership for now. Wonder if Gran Turismo will get a new Maestro if that is the case?
An f1500t-a event would be awesome or even better an mclaren mp4/4 event!!!I also remain curious as to what sort of Bonus Menus could come next? That is, excluding future cars that could come with an update, like the Suzuki Jimny. Maybe a F1500T-A event, with rounds at former Grand Prix venues like Fuji and Brands Hatch, with ideally minimal overlap with the Super Formula rounds. Could especially be nice if we see the return of Indianapolis and its infield course.
Good catch on the Super Licence icon. Been wondering why it wasn’t displaying.Not sure if anyone else noticed, but for some time, if you went to your profile on the official website, the little image for which license you had wouldn't display if you had any of the Master licenses. However, it does now. (But it seems like they're still working on Instagram integration.)
EDIT: As for a potential release for GT8, I don't think that'll be for some time, given Kaz's statement on how many players are still around for GT7. I think once they start seeing players drop either to a certain amount, at a certain rate over a certain timespan, or something like that, then they'll really get things going with the next title.
I, for one, am not in a huge rush for the next title, as I still think GT7 has some notable room to grow in sheer content. For example, we've only gotten a single new mission pack since launch. I'm not just talking about the 24h endurances that they've mentioned, but it would also seem that the final drag race mission implies there are more like it to come.
I hope they adjust/fix the camera for the F1500-T as it's too far away along with being awkwardly placed IMO when driving in 3rd person view.An f1500t-a event would be awesome or even better an mclaren mp4/4 event!!!
You can adjust the 3rd person camera in the camera settings for every car.I hope they adjust/fix the camera for the F1500-T as it's too far away along with being awkwardly placed IMO when driving in 3rd person view.
Been feeling a bit fed up with GT7 the past couple of weeks so for a break I started a new game in GT4 at the weekend.
God it is so much better, isn’t it? Maybe it’s just the early game, but having so much choice in used car dealerships full of mad ****boxes, it’s really exciting. I got a Toyota Starlet Glanza V as my starter car, very happy with it, but it was a hard decision out of a shortlist of at least a dozen different cars. Managed to beat the Sunday Cup and FF challenge with it, and went on to buy a cool looking 80’s Mitsubishi Gallant for the 4WD challenge, then a RWD Skyline GTS-R and a Yaris Sport for the Vitz one-make race. There’s so much choice and different ways to go about things.
GT4 is simply leagues above GT7 in at least that aspect, and it’s a really important aspect imo.
