My GT6 AE will be delayed, we have big storm here.... NO GT6 this weekend :banghead:🤬🤬🤬🤬:grumpy:
 
They dont technically charge you for a car in the game. You can either do it the GT way or spend cash. The payouts aren't that bad in GT6 imo.

It'll be interesting once people have unlocked all the races in GT6 and we can figure out what the best credits/time ratio race is. Do the same for FM5, compare to cost of most expensive car and figure out which is more grindy.

I'm not really sure which I think it'll be. I'd believe either one at the moment.
 
FM5's most expensive car via microtransactions: £32.50
GT6's most expensive car via microtransactions: £120

Not that either is good IMO; they're both ridiculous, terrible attempts to pry more money out of consumers. But the numbers speak for themselves; GT charges well over double the cost of the game for a single car.


NOTE: To pay the £32.50 for the Lotus in Forza 5, you HAVE to buy the £65 Token pack. And the smaller the pack, the more expensive the car. The Lotus could cost you £79 if bought with the smallest token packs. And I should have mentioned that I knew that buying the in game credits for the most expensive cars in GT6 would cost a crap load of money.

But, there is a secret: Don't buy monies. Just like every other game that gives you the ability to buy in-game money with real money. *coughfacebookgamescough* You don't HAVE to buy the money.

EDIT: It's not like the difficulty in Absolute Supercars. PD isn't forcing you buy money in order to progress through the game. Ugh, I hate gamers. Facebook has been doing this exact thin for YEARS! GTA5 did it even and no one complains. Heck, there was barely a murmur when Forza 5 did it. Everyone was just like "Oh, it's Microsoft, they're new to this they don't know what they're doing." Yeah, well, PD and Rockstar are also new to the micro-transaction game, too. If you don't like it, don't participate in it. It's really that simple guys. Are the prices stupid? Yes. but, you are using real money to buy virtual money. The entire idea is stupid. But is that going to stop some people? Nope. If it works for Farm Ville 2...

I don't get half of what you wrote and the other half I disagree with. First, let me premise this with I never intended to buy credits and the fact they offer them does not offend me. At this point I'm not to concerned with how their presence affects my progression in the game.

But how does GT not charge more than the price game when it cost £120 to buy enough credits to get a 20 mill credit car? It's insulting to people to charge that much and act like it's a convienence if you want quick credits.

What do you mean by the bolded part? You make it sound like there are restrictions to how you can use the parts and cars purchased with microtransaction credits? I don't see the relevance of how the credits are used. The only problem I see is Sony thought it was okay to charge that much for virtual currency.

There ARE restrictions. Every race has PP and tire restrictions. So, all you can REALLY do with 21 million credits is buy cars to use in the events. But the events aren't unlocked right away. So, but the time you'd be able to actually USE the Jaguar, you might not need to actually buy so much credits, if any at all. Really, what Sony did is create something that very few people are going to use. I mean, sure, you can buy whatever car you want, but have fun not using your X2011. Also, you guys do know that if a company prices a microtransaction like that, they're not really expecting many people to buy it. The majority of people will just get 500k credits. But, I'm sure there will be some rich people out there who don't mind dropping money to fill up their garage. Which is why they 7 million credit price is so high. Think about it like society classes. You have the Poor, Lower-Middle, Middle and Upper Classes.

Boo they gave it an 8.0? He didn't talk about online, career events, wow IGN... But whatever I guess.
Did you actually read the review?

He did talk about online and compared it extensively to offline.. and the different options available. And he did mention the career.

I think he was generous from all the valid complaints. Of course for him the problems don't outweigh the good parts, so he gave it an 8, "great". Extremely fair.

I've actually watched the video itself. But good to hear that though.
 
Anyone know where the machine testing has gone?

Don't tell me it is missing... That was pretty much the whole point of SS Route X
 
http://www.gamespot.com/articles/gran-turismo-6-review-in-progress/1100-6416552/ Wow, just wow. Never heard so much negativity against a series in a video before. They probably should have let someone without a searing hate for Gran Turismo games do that instead.. If you're annoyed over not being able to drive a super car within the first 30 minutes (you probably can anyway through arcade right? ) Then you probably have missed what GT is all about.
 
How many hours has it taken so far to complete all the licenses test and event to enable the on-line features?
How long ago did they take them down @CorvetteConquer?
 
I just did the first license test and was absolutely blown away when i saw all my friends driving lines zigging and zagging down SSRX. This is a very cool feature to add a dose of competition to the license tests, nice one PD! 👍

Whoa that looks so awesome. I can't wait to do this with my friends, I agree that was really is a cool feature. :D
 
Wait a minute, can't we change the traction control and brake bias while racing anymore :odd: ?

I read the first few paragraphs and it sounds like the guys just wants an arcade racer with all cars open. Not a simulator. They should've had someone else review it.

Played all the novice events and first 3 cups of B and then did A licences. I think it's about 1,5 hour. Shorter if you do all the races without looking though the garages and available options. I guess you can unlock it within the hour.
 
GTA5 did it even and no one complains.

GTA V even released an application for iPhone to help the player with some in-game content. Those who do not have iPhone must resort to a guide, which kills the entire point of the content.
