Have you seen this?

I mean i'm not saying "wooow big surprise microtransaction", but eh, thought I could show you.

Like I said before, I'm totally fine with having the option of paying extra money for in-game bonuses. I just don't want them forced on me like in the Forza titles. Polyphony hasn't been obnoxious about MTs before, so I'm not concerned by this.
 
I guess this replaces buying a car with real money which makes sense... But $31.95 for 2 million credits?? That sounds a bit steep.
Nah that's only 320 dollars to buy one of the 20million cars, totally fine. PD definitely won't cripple credit payouts to tempt you into buying them, totally optional, so it's all cool.

Anyone able to play who got it early? I thought only the offline content would work until the servers go live at midnight?
 
Micro transactions like this are the norm in the gaming industry, I hate them as much as anyone else but there is a very simple solution, don’t buy them.
I won't, problem is plenty of other people will.

So we all have to live with the stingy credit payouts.
 
Wasn't there at least one car that costs about 30mio? How would that be possible?
I think the highest priced cars are 20mil.

I have not got the bonus cars like you though, and I am on the PS5.
Weird. I have the 25th Ann Digi Deluxe. PS4/PS5. I have all my avatars. The pstore website shows the avatars and bonus Credits as cannot download, but I have the avatars. Not going to sweat it. Just playing the game.

3Edit: Oh, so other PS4 users having the same problem as me?

The servers are already active. There’s loads of people live streaming the game right now.

Did you read the FAQ that was just posted today? Sounds like there's a two-lap race at Goodwood that shows up early in career mode that pays out 35k credits, with over 50k with a clean race bonus. It seems like you can do it as many times as you want, too. Doesn't sound like very stingy payouts to me so far.

Have you seen the cost of upgrades? 35k will just about buy you some tyres on one car.

Isn't that how GT has always been, though? I remember saving for quite a while to fully upgrade my cars in GT4. IIRC I don't think racing tires were far off 35k in that game. We all got spoiled with the unlimited free upgrades in Sport.
