Look how much I care about your opinion?
If you don't want to engage in a civil discussion then GT Planet may not be the place for you.
I hope you made multiple accounts to troll PD too while you were at it 😎😈💥
Sorry to disappoint you, I have in my entire life posted exactly zero Metacritic reviews.
I don't care if it is me vs. all the players in GT7. I can do whatever the heck I want with my life.
No one has said otherwise.
There are no correct opinions. Only opinions the majority or someone with power chooses as the correct opinion.
Nope, it depends on what you based that opinion on.

To me good things outweigh the bad things. Maybe that is just me,

It's fine, you just accepted broken idea of playing games. No problem with that. That was the reason I needed to ask.
Not broken when you grind enough *laughs in hard earned 18-20M garage with over 100 cars.

Easy life in GT7 as of today.

Again, no one has said you can't hold that view.

However you seem to be struggling with how discussion forums work. This isn't a blog, other will comment on your posts and not all of them will agree with you.

I would suggest stepping away for a while until you can post without insulting others and breaking the AUP.
 
As in, you did the same thing over and over again.

No thanks.

Especially after the nerf.
Imagine after long day at work you want to enjoy your new racing game. And you can't because you would need another job to "earn" the content you already paid for. :D

I am completely fine with opening everything thru racing but still you should be able to use all content somewhere.

How to say you purchase microtransactions without saying you purchase microtransactions. (I actually hope you don’t but it just kinda looks like it tbh - if you don’t then fair enough).

Drove 1500km of the same rally race during weekend, maybe 100-150km of Daytona oval clubman race, the 15K one. I think 6000km driven so far? Yes, crazy grind. But I am fine being crazy for a while in grinding. Not forever. You get 700-800K/hour doing Sardegna Windmills. You could do the math, if you would want to. No need if you don't want to.

Wouldn't it be better to be able to earn that money across a varied range of well curated events and championships that better used the cars you have in your garage?

Great. Why are you in a gt7 dedicated thread then? Go play those games and let people enjoy gt7.

Do you need satisfaction from people hating the game as you do? That’s weird.
Do not tell other members where and when they can post here at GT Planet.

As long as a member is following the AUP they are free to post in whatever thread they like. Neither owning, nor playing GT7 is a requirement to post.

Agreed that would be better.

But still, instead of giving up on my hopes (as a Ferrari fanboy had to have F50 and 500 Mondial at least), I used my early eagerness of GT7 to my advantage. Was not fun at times, I admit. Painful last hour both Saturday and Sunday. But now, I feel it was worth it, again just my opinion. I guess I am a masochist at times, not sure 🤔

Would it be worth it this week, the grinding, no matter which car shows up? No, I have finally had enough of grinding for the time being. Time to enjoy the online grinding. That has always been more fun for me, the competitive aspect and having fun racing 🏁 Hopefully rewards increase soon. But again, 10 min rallying and you get some tuning cash.

I chose grinding rallies for credits, to build up a proper garage. Now it is built up. Now it can stay as is for the time being.

Apologies for my writing, I get heated sometimes. And I am grumpy on Mondays especially 😅

And that's what the people you have been railing against have been asking for. Alternatives to the grind exist, and Sony/PD/Kaz's indifference to that does need to be addressed.

I think the update is good to make the time/money at "all" events the same, so they dont push me to do the same race over and over again. There by i'm prefering to work for the money and cars otherwise it not fun for me if i could buy just al the cars and tunes...

The other side is maybe the amount minute/money could be a bit higher indeed, on the other side i did buy this game because i know i will play it about 6 or 7 years from now... nog all day every day though maybe some weeks i dont race and then i'll be back at GT7 again.

And i'll try to get the miles every day but i dont do it every day :D

To be fair some people have been asking for access to everything from start and repeating themselves on how metacritic user reviews exist.

It’s getting more repetitive than gt7 gridding.

I do agree though that what the game needs is more content and consistent rewards across the current content and custom/daily races so that we can have fun grinding for credits.

Exactly.

It's not even the number of miles or the length of time one has to spend driving that is the main issue here - it's the fact that making use of all the game's features and aspects is not as rewarding as it should be, and that access to some of the best content requires you to grind or spend alot of real cash.

IMHO, every hour spent grinding is an hour that could have been spent playing the game better, and those of us who have limited time to play the game are left with a choice of either enjoying the game or accessing a handful of rare items.

Because I want the game to be better so that I can enjoy it, as I already paid for it and got nowhere near the experience I, and clearly many, many others, were hoping for.

Shutting up and accepting that the game is a predatory MTX mess isn't going to bring any improvements.

This also isn't happening, no matter how many times it gets repeated that it is happening.

My EL Plan was:
1) Grind for cars, build up a nice garage, with some rarity involved. Check.
2) and 3) Enjoy the online racing, complete menu books, licence test, circuit exp etc. And have fun 🏁 Work in progress, done a few sport mode races. Menu books 3 left to do. S licences later this week to be done and so on.

Ok but find a better way to ask for such changes. What you’re doing, imo, is actively trying to get people on board with your opinion, which most of us share I’m sure, but in doing so you’re ruining they’re enjoyment of the game.

Start a petition, write an open letter to PD. Do something constructive.

That's fine. I wanted to enjoy great cars. No online here, I don't need more real people around. Just to setup some awesome race and race. It's currently very limited.

It's called MC score and it could work.

It’s already on 2.0 right? How much lower does it need to go? Do you think they will only do something if it goes to 0.1? Either they give a **** about that and they’re already doing something or they don’t.

I can discuss the issues with the game on this forum as much as I'd like as long as I'm following the AUP, and I will continue to do so until I give up all hope on this game improving, or the game improves. And even if the game improves, I'll still discuss issues I have, but with a whole lot more positivity too. As for ruining other people's enjoyment, how? If the game's so great, some forum posts shouldn't be able to ruin your enjoyment. And if they are, you're free to not read them.

Other people have already started petitions, starting a new one wouldn't help. An open letter wouldn't do anything either. Talking about it, helping people understand how predatory this game is, these are things that Polyphony might see.

TLOU2 had much more reviews. This count is rather low. If positive exist, it would be nice to see them too.

They care a lot, MC is very important. Some games didn't have another parts because of a score.

I hope at some point in your life you realise how focusing on the negative aspects of something is not healthy.

I’m going to take you’re advice though.
 
I have to say I am very disappointed in all of the 'hate' that is going round about Gran Turismo 7 right now, I expected it but not to this scale but I guess that the 'downtime' last week really brings out what peoiple actually feel sometimes.

As for me I am probably in the small 'minority' that is actually very happy with his game. I know my Gran Turismo group are very happy with it, some minor niggles but we all have those.

Nowadays with having multiple games on my roster I don't have the full 'day' to play games so I think the pace of GT7 is going quite well for my style of play, I am at menu book 18 and OK the 'reduction' in the payouts for some racies in trying to build money is not ideal to buy cars but I have 3 million currently and I am happy to wait when it comes to getting cars especially the Legendary Auction ones.

I am not a gamer that just buys everything, heck in GT Sport I don't own all the cars and am quite proud of that fact because that shows my personality/interests a bit more.

For me the fact I actually 'want' to play it is proof the game's format has been a success, I don't care about the fact the content may not be too large or too quick to complete at the moment. I am pacing myself to make sure I always have content to play and I am sure as Kaz himself said in his statement last week wie will have more content to come, it is after only the third week of the game.

Having 'fun' is what makes this GT a success for me, trying to beat friends in competitive Circuit Experience challenegs we have between us, licence tests etc, online lobbies, it adds to the immersion for me and I get some people will not like that but that's were all unique humans I guess.

Making liveries and people liking them, there are so many aspects I could mention here but I'm alrieady writing a novel here! LOL.

I missed out on the online racing last week (aka Sport Mode) but I am gonna make sure to do them this week and I'm looking forward to trying the exhibition FIA races again, which reminds me I need to make my liveries for 'Fumoffu Racing'

I'll judge the game once the future plans and content is there, let's just say it's in my top 3 of most played GT's, the others are Gran Turismo 4 and Sport for reference.

Apologies if mods consider it off topic, I'm off to play now...

It started great. I was thinking why it's not 10/10 when I played Cafe. Most people here completed Cafe days ago and then problems arose. Your 3 millions are completely useless because in few days, you would need at least 50 million. And we don't know about other car prices.
