Traditionally, the events in GT have been sorted into tiers, by the licence required to enter them by the League they're in (Beginner, Amateur, Professional, Expert, Extreme, Endurance) or both systems together.
In GT7, we have licence-free beginner events like the Sunday Cup, as usual. You earn roughly 100,000Cr/hour here.
You then need the B-licence to progress, payouts improve to roughly 300,000Cr/h.
You reach A-licence events, payouts increase up to 500~900,000Cr/h.
Everything's going fine, then you get a cake and watch the credits. Often GT games have two sets of end credits, and the REAL ending is far away at this point.
The campaign ended here at launch, despite the existence of IB, IA and S licences.
The early-April economy update added three end-game events in a much higher pay-tier, around what I'd expect from IA or S events. At the end of April, one more was added, the Spa 1-hour.
In the other four months, the only other events added have been more events for B and A licence, leaving a great chasm in the campaign between the four races that pay well, and everything else, as if they're some events from Menu Book 75 that were released early.
It's a disheartening situation for players who've put a lot of time in. Menus 1-39 are the beginning, many of us finished them in March, we have a sneak-preview for the late-middle of the game, and no ending. No Laguna Seca 200 Miles, no Nürburgring endurance, no major championships, no events for the MP4/4, F1500T-A, or X2019.
At this rate, I may soon just start launching the game once a month to see if there's a new grind yet.
