Gran Turismo 7: Latest news and discussion thread

[NICKname]

Does anyone know a setup for the Miata 1 hour race that can get you under the AI's lap times of 57.5-58.5? Or should I just sit through the early race rubber banding, wait for the rain and hope for the best?

Currently sitting on 17 million credits because of the circuit experiences I’ve completed so far, I never got even close to that GTS. The economy needs more tweaks but there isn’t much to complain about anymore.

Getting at 20 million and buying a super pricey car is now doable. Now, how do you get there again and buy a second unicorn ? We still need more content. Quite simply , I'd like a few 10+ races championships very nicely thought of, with rewards only at the end of the series , i.e. 1 or 2 million and a car you can sell.

I'm so frustrated that I could not get the F40 nor the F50 because they were sold so early after release. I hope they come back shortly.

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:

Update:

Also successful with the GC8 Ver. VI Impreza.

No widebody mod. Top Speed at 280+, can stretch to 290 km/h as well.

At that point its a sheep in wolf's clothing. 🤣

Excellent phrase! Most of my cars are pretty much what they seem, except for the Camaro, which is definitely a fat, belligerent drunk squeezed into a slightly too shiny suit

Not sure if this has been covered, but the roulette spins have been updated

I noticed at lunchtime. 2 star ticket gave me 3 cars and 2 piles of money, quite exciting, and guess what I got? Yep, the smallest pile of money. The croupier has a nice new suit but he's still got bad breath and the house still stacks the odds.😡

Yea just got 100k! There was no little pile of money also!

 

[mynameis66]

Perhaps a dumb question, but I presume people who have already completed Circuit Experiences will miss out on the higher pay-outs?

Click on the circuit exp you've completed then just exit.The credits will be added to your total.

So, does anyone know how to get gold on the beyond the horizon slipstream mission? Best I can do is 154.7. All the videos I’ve seen say wait until the wind is favourable but whenever I’ve tried (and I’ve tried a lot!) it’s always 0 so no wind. Is there his another case of breaking it again with the update?

 

[GTboyz]

Got this out of a 3 star ticket.

 

[Unklemac]

They were significantly higher in GTS.

define significantly? I guess when your not complaining about payout… nevermind. Dunno why i’m here with 90% of posts are complaints of probably old farts

I think I had gold at first try . Try a different trajectory maybe (overtake from left / right). Be mostle gentle on the steering wheel and keep close to the cars

 

[Lord Protector]

I can't use my own car settings for endurance races because this stupid game doesn't allow for BoP + TUNING. Are you kidding me??? This is beyond ****ing stupid.

4 star roulette today. Choices were a stack of coins, a couple of gold bars, some engine bits, an engine and a red DB11. Won the DB11 which was surprising. Not the colour I'd have chosen it in but an unusually decent prize compared to my usual 2000cr.

 

[danjama]

First of all I'd like to say what an unexpected and pleasant surprise it was to find the loading times significantly improved on PS4 with this update.

However, pretty pissed off that I got a 1 star ticket for my daily mileage, which gave me the worst prize on the screen, a proxy 2009 credits ffs.

Does anybody know what actually determines which ticket you receive? I had 5 x 4 stars in a row this week and all have out crap prizes too.

Careful with that statement. Lord knows we'll get the Nightrider Pontiac Firebird, with it's wide fender flares and popup headlights.







But equipped with the Iron Duke Pooperscooper cranking out 90 HP.

 

[happycorey]

I know a lot of people are getting the smallest credit amount, but it seems like they've tweaked the algorithm to favor other prizes as well

I feel like some players are chosen in groups. People were posting about the Ultra High RPM turbo kit for the Veyron, and the Bore up Kit S for the NSX-R 02'

Did my tickets today and got both.

Edit: Just opened the one star ticket today and got awarded a Tesla. 🤣

Seems that nothing can stop the clean race bonus in the new Tokyo race... I picked up 20s in penalties from wall hits, hit several cars and intentionally blocked one coming into the pits but they didn't punish me luckily the leader pitted twice but their pace was garbage towards the end, I still won by 18 seconds...

It's random. You can do the same thing all week and get a 1 star on monday and a 6 star on friday.

Apparently the report for the payouts/rewards now:

 

[priesty_lfc]

Anybody aware of a search function for car types? One of the new missions is Kei cars but only shows the Honda S600, I know the Daihatsu Copenhagen is also one but is that the only 2 Kei cars?

They are noted via a # but seems a pointless hash tag if you can search by it?

The only vehicles in the game that are literal real life kei cars are the Honda S660, Daihatsu Copen, and Honda Beat (which hasn't yet arrived in the UCD).

 

[JoaoSilva]

Any word on the prize cars for the new missions?

I thought so. Man it really irks getting 2000 credits when the other prizes were 3 cars and a 100k.

I heard Nordschleife is stupid hard to Gold.

Anyway.

Positives:

• 1,650,000 Cr./hour from WTC 600 Tokyo Expressway 12-lap
• Lots of nice goodies in the UCD
• Many late game races are now viable ways of making some quick buck, basically anything with peppers/WTC
• Circuit Experience goes past the "sense of pride and accomplishment" and gives big money for Gold
• The bug that erased your tune was fixed

Negatives:

• Game needs events for lower cars, it needs a WTC 500 and many more brand events like Lamborghini
• Can't sell cars yet, which is ********
• Minor UI issues like GT Auto
• Yamanaka still wants to murder you when you try to overtake him

I heard Nordschleife is stupid hard to Gold.

Nordschleife is always the hellish level in video games. The difficult stage like with Monaco.

I tried to use Remote Play while I am on the office ( used a spare laptop on guest wifi here) I go login into my PS5 start GT7 and before i can do anything I'm disconnected. My wife texts me I unplugged the Playstation because it kept on turning off and on. 🤣I was trying to do it so she wouldn't be in the room when I was using the remote app. It was storming at the time too . So I guess I have to wait until later to try to get the MR2

Looks like it's time to sign the papers, mate

Nah I think she'll keep around a little longer I hope

I want it even more now🤣. Just as long as it has the red strobe at the front

I guess that's why we get 5 million for doing it.
