GT5 2.04 Update what was changed for online??

[Taz69]

GT5 Update 2.04 Improved the online experience!!! Can anyone tell me WHAT they did to the online racing to make it better. Are the dynamics closer to being offline. Do the cars have more grip or was it all in the black screen and room freezing issues. Just wondering if I need to log in and start re-tuneing all my cars if the race dynamics have beeen changed...? Tire wear anf better???

No....after 2.04 you don't earn any xp or cr from races

I have a suspicion that online racing no longer degrades the oil.
I just did 5 or 6 - 3 lap races at Spa in my M3 and went to wash it and change oil, but to my surprise the oil was still in good condition and i couldn't change it!

Really?

Yup, I played 10 races online with friends and only received cr and xp in 2 of them. I like it actually.......we shouldn't be rewarded for anything we do.

I thought the online experience last night felt a lot closer to the offline physics. It could be mental, but it just felt like the car was planted and a lot less skitish than they were prior to the update.
