GT Sport Undocumented Changes Thread (1.36/1.37)

[ARTAsean]

Looks like PD has implemented some kind of temporary mileage-based engine wear to combat money exploits.

I set up my 24-hour rubber band grind last night, wake up to find that at roughly lap 700, (after 11 hours in 1st place) my car experienced a ~25mph loss which was increasing my lap times by ~10 seconds. This would equate to about ~1500 miles of driving.

I need to do more testing, but even when driving the car manually, the top speed loss was unequivocally there. Maybe someone else can help me verify this.

H pattern users: shifting into a gear that doesn't exist will put the car into neutral, rather than engaging it into the highest gear again.

Example: going into 6th gear on a 5 speed will put it in 5th again prior to the patch. After patch, putting it into 6th will engage neutral.

Has anyone else's race music gone on to a straight playlist since this update or is it just me? Battlecry > Dis Generation > The Answer > The Dancer > 5OUL ON D!SPLAY > Wicked > AL1VE is getting really tedious

Is it clear whether the change is in 1.36 or 1.37?

You means drive the Tomahawk X VGT?

No, I use the Xbow, should have clarified.

Don't have quantifiable evidence but I'm 99% sure it was post 1.37
