So they fixed economy with this massive circuit experiences prizes, new circuit missions and doubling prizes for some event, now user metascore will go back to reasonable score, wont it ? ;d
Probably not yet - whilst the update is certainly a major step in the right direction, the level of overall content isn’t quite there yet so until it starts to bulk, it will stay relatively low for now but it also depends on the “few additional patches” of April as to what they will bring with regards to content and events.
 
So they have broken the game. Telling me I have only driven 347 miles yet I have the trophy for driving over 1,372 miles

Oh never mind, turns out it is me at fault
I was caught out a bit by this too. It took me a moment to realise that the mileage shown on your main page is displayed per month.
 
Perhaps a dumb question, but I presume people who have already completed Circuit Experiences will miss out on the higher pay-outs?
 
It has always been low (also GT Sport). Maybe to counter 12 hour races done by a bot/rubberband? 🤔
I just wanted to play the game and got nothing. It's better than before for sure but is it enough? Hardly. I like races with slow cars and some classics from shop could be nice but it's not possible to earn credit for them. Strange game.
 
Oh ho ho... this ain't easy.

The Genesis G70 will be your best friend in this race.

Are these crashes happening in any/all races or just certain ones? And which console/game do you have (I'm PS4 with digital version of GT7)

I tried taking pics from replays during the World GT Series Championship in World Circuits and the game crashed (twice). Fortunately, championship progress was not lost and credits (daily mileage/Cr. winnings) were retained, but the game still needed to be restarted.

It is very off-putting though, because I can often spend a fair amount of time (not that you would notice from the quality of my pictures! :( ) composing a Race Photo, so even losing those images represents a noticable and frustrating waste of time.

Not knowing whether the game is going to crash also effectively kills Race Photomode for me, so it would be great to find out what (if anything) is getting done about it.
Every race I tried to take a photo of a replay. PS4 fat.
When the rendering bar is full, the photo doesn't appear, just the game freezes
 
I still wanna know which touring car events PD have been watching.

What's next, "Touring Cars 800" with LMP1s and Group C?

Does anyone know if the 1 hour rwces are repeatable and do we always get the same prize money or is it like the other missions, where we can only the prize once?

It’s like every other mission race in the game - it’s a one time only payout!
 
Wow, well that's pretty good if players who have already completed these events are going to get extra credit retrospectively. Should be a hefty windfall for some people!!
Collected about 14 million this morning from circuit experiences I had already done. I'm sure some will make that look like peanuts.
 
Can you share the settings? I'm unable to win. My best is a 3rd with a gtr.
Do you stop in pit?

What mods and tires do you need though, inters, or Racing: Hard/Soft?

Strategy:

- Let the AI overtake you on the main straight.

- Catch on their draft. With the gearing I set, I managed to top out at 290 km/h+

- Pit in at the end of Lap 7. The NSX and GT-R AI cars pit in early.

- The AI are slow in the corners, as usual.

Note: The Genesis eats up its front tires quick. Better control your corner entry speeds.

Ideal lap time should be around 2:14 or 2:13


The result:

I guess PD mindset on custom races is keep the payout so low that it never competes with the fixed events or as a option to grinding.
