It's the only sim-racing title that stops me from playing over 90% of it when it's undergoing maintenance.

Oh, and when you joined you agreed to follow the AUP, which is quite clear that blanket insults such as this are unacceptable, as is telling members to 'shut up'.
iRacing only lets you test drive cars while it’s doing maintenance, so I guess that’s kinda similar to GT only letting you use arcade mode while it’s offline. Or does GT7 not even allow that?

That's similar, however, one key difference does exist, GT 7 was marketed and launched as a return to Gran Turismo's single-player roots, not something that iRacing focuses on at all really.

The always online was sort of acceptable with GT Sport for similar reasons, for GT 7 it's not.

I'm 100% sure people would understand not being able to share liveries, photos, etc. while maintenance is going on, but not being able to access the Cafe, buy cars, run single-player races and championships?

Fair enough, I can see why some people would be upset with that, if they weren’t familiar with how GTS worked. I guess I just assumed from the get go that GT7 would be similar to GTS in that regard.
 
I bought a PS5 and the game, so I’m out just over $1000 CAD while not being able to play right now. While their communication definitely sucks, I’m just happy they are trying to fix it quickly, people have absolutely no patience anymore.
Crazy some of us actually dare to expect a new product to actually work after purchese, no wonder broken games keep releasing since there will always be people making excuses for the developers failure.

And therein lies the problem, expectations. I had zero expectations for GT7, thus I’ve been quite enjoying what we did get so far, and I look forwards to anything added in the future. Have high expectations for yourself, not others, or it’s gonna be a really disappointing life. 👍

LMAo yes, having expectations that my seat belt works or my epipen works is expectating to much in others.

Are you a payed apologist for Gt or something.

You really classify GT7, a video game, in the same catagoey of importance in life, as life saving seat belts and epipens? Enjoy your evening, this conversation is over now. 🍻

Just showeing you the fallacy of your logic. Its a product people pay money for, its supposed to work. That the deal, that's it.


Why are you making excuses for a 125 billion dollar corporation releasing a lemon ?

Oh you all are just used to having it pretty good, as PD actually listens to the player's complaints, often gives us what we want and doesn't release a half-assed game.

While I was in isolation some time ago, I got so bored I decided to try out the freshly released Forza Horizon 4, mainly because it had my own cars in the game, which seemed like fun. Now this one really is a 100 dollar game and it was so buggy at launch, that a Russian cracker (who easily cracked online as well, in 2021...) actually fixed some of the bugs in his release lol.
And to this day that game is buggy as hell (and by "buggy" I mean unplayable in some cases, not "buggy" because the GT Auto is missing a few colors) and actually completely unplayable for Fanatec owners (as the game just crashes at the cutscenes when you're using Fanatec equipment - which is actually supposed to be officially supported in the game).

So there you have it - I'd say PD has done a great job as always!

Yes people have no patience, you could say that but it does not apply. Yes. A 12 hour period of no online in an online-only first party Sony title that just released shouldn't be a thing. Nor should the endless grinding and heavy focus on micro-transactions.

Why did you pay 100 euros for a GT Sport with updated 'career' mode?

(applies to all games)Wait till it releases, read some REAL reviews NOT sponsored articles, wait for sale and buy it for €10-€20, and always buy disc version so you can re-sell it after you realise it's a rip off and false advertising.

Don't turn around words in my mouth and read again what I said. Thanks :rolleyes:
If that's your question, then I don't know how to answer it. Not a very open or answerable question.

You were active this morning so ¯\(ツ)/¯ and now you wasted another 30 seconds of your life trying to throw shade on me. gg
Gotta have a laugh and love at how you narrate every conversation with the biggest load of bias I've ever seen.

I last replied at 9am (Friday morning) and you replied with "youre just ignoring it" when I didn't see anything of value left in the conversation and opted out? What question again? You waited till 9pm (night) for me to reply then you persisted to continue a dead conversation with this reply to my joke. That's some commitment to beating a dead horse if anything, bar the necessary quality of humor to enjoy it.

I'm primarily replying cause someone else quoted me and that got deleted. Which made me furious.
Gaslighting me again? Activity feed clearly states you were active 15h ago :dunce:
But this won't end up in me getting an answer to my question anyway, why do I even bother :rolleyes:
Why do you bother with these childish games? That's what I really want to know...above all else. Which question? Reading all this back and you haven't actually mentioned even one on-topic question for me that there is to answer despite you repeatedly reacting as if I'm avoiding something? A queston eh? I'm giving you a full paragraph right now just to ask. Which question and where did you say it? I might be avoiding a dumpster fire indeed, but I didn't find a question to me in your replies whatsoever. All I found in your replies thereafter were overblown/exaggerated reactions

Further, the notion that I care enough, that I'm the one gaslighting you from a 3 word response to a very aggressive and targeted reply by you, is ironic. I was de-escalating the situation which went right over your head, keep on believing what you want to think though. It's almost like when you called shade, you were the one throwing it....?

If you want a question answered, it would do you a world of good if you could just grow up and be a bit more understanding and direct without the fluff and fake reactions, not just for me, everyone would appreciate it. Now if you do have an actual question that's worth me even answering then Straight up start talking like an adult and actually ask it would you? Keep it on topic too while you're at it. Thanks
