It took over 24 hours just to put out two sentences explaining what was the problem with the patch... Why?
Just a massive disappointment.

"I want to make GT7 a game in which you can enjoy a variety of cars lots of different ways, and if possible would like to try to avoid a situation where a player must mechanically keep replaying certain events over and over again."
Well congrats for doing the exact opposite, Kaz!

They've released what went wrong. It prevented the world map from loading.
Also first rule of client/server comms is the server is authoritative. 1.07 doesn't need to be smart or detect if it's the right patch. It should just connect to the servers saying "Hi, I am version 1.07" and the server will reject the connection saying "you need to be 1.08". In this case, extra checks are needed for PSPlus membership, so I imagine Sony handles this initial connection, not Polyphony.

Well, I feel slightly more hopeful after reading this. Would have been nice to have heard something earlier, though. I still can't fathom a reason why payouts have been lowered. If it's because they're planning on introducing more higher-paying events, you think they would've lowered payouts simultaneously. It's just odd timing. I do love this game and want it to be good, but I think they need to have more transparency about their long-term plans if they're doing unheard-of things like reducing payouts.

"It pains me that I can’t explain the details regarding this at this moment" - Whenever you see a line like this in a statement, you just know they're being gagged by upstairs.

1.08. Up and running. A half hearted apology in game promising to make cars more available to all in future. We just need to trust in them as they cant reveal details of the future plans yet. YAWN.
1.08 just basically fixed the 1.07 mess which apparently had launch issues.
No free cars, no free credits…..just a poor apology for nearly 2 days worth of no gameplay.
In the meantime, please feel free to do some micro transactions!
You suck GT7.

All PD had to do was increase the payouts of lesser raced events rather than decrease the ones which were so popular.
I hope we get some news regarding "additional content, additional race events and additional features that will constructively resolve this" rather soon.

Logged in without problems, save is not corrupted, everything looks normal so far...
About the message from Kaz, I like he adressed the rewards change, and I also want to ask members of this forum.
The Fisherman race and the GR4 HSR and Goodwood Mini race that were the leaders in making money were all really easy races don´t you think? Dont you think the rewards for them were too high?
I also know they increased the prize of the WTC races witch members complained, there are now 70k kr I think, doesnt everybody agree that these races are suposed to be the "high value" and not some one lap race around Fisherman...
As someone allready said in this topic, I think they messed up in the beggining and these are the correct prizes that were suposed to be up.

This is what I've felt since the beginning. The server maintenance is a PD issue, but the broader economy nonsense is on Sony trying to monetize the heck out of a game that has never really been set up for that.
Not as bad as anticipated; I wonder if it was also responsible for the long load time when getting into the limited offline content.
On the Server/Client stuff, that's very true - I was just being a bit pessimistic over whether it had been implemented properly, given everything else. It does make sense for that part to be handled by Sony though, not PD.

Well kaz, so you told us that you want people enjoy and drive all the cars but you dont want that these people doesnt repeat same events?? And how i am supposed to farm credits to get most expensive cars? stealing Luca's cafe profit or something? This type of grind, repeating same events over and over again exists from gt1 and till gts where you could farm 300k with gr1 in less than 10 minutes and 250 with p4 with 2 laps at le mans, now you halfed our payouts to make us "enjoy"

Some people commenting here didn't even read the original article. It's about this game evolving over the years from lovely game to cash grab.
