It's now March; where is our promised community update?

[sparkytooth]

The game is telling me right now that a new update has been released.

My game is telling me to strangle my cat.

I prefer your message.

Not holding my breath, and nice timing, I just went to bed.

He's right. I says so on my crawler, but there isn't any other sign of any update yet for me. Going to reboot.

 

[sparkytooth]

The little news ticker that scrolls along the screen in the main menu is telling me. Apparently it isn't live right now as I haven't seen any mention of it beyond the news ticker.

 

[playnthru]

No it always says that!

That has been telling us there is an update constantly since 1.04 came out, it doesn't mean there is a new update. At this point I don't think we'll see anything until next week at the earliest.

Imagine if Kaz isn't even talking to his development team... eek!

1 Month Ago:
Kaz: "Hey, when are you guys coming back to work?"
Team: "We'll come in, in February."
Kaz: "Cool, I'll tell everyone we'll have the track ready then."

Present Day:
Team: "Hey Kaz we're back in February. "
Kaz: Are you ****ing ****ing me? "

Darn outdated news outlets. I coulda sworn I never saw it until right now.

Drat. Hadn't noticed. It had been telling me about seasonals all day though, so at least it changed, lol.

I'm getting sick and tired of the lack of communication from PD. At this point there is no way in hell I will be buying another GT game. I mean where the **** are shuffle races and why were they taken out? I seriously doubt we will get even half of our promised updates. It seems due to poor sales PD has almost entirely dropped support of this game.

God, this is such a first-world forum. There are better things to whine about, you know. Like, oh I don't know, the situation in the Ukraine, the fact that Mugabe is still sitting his incompetent ass in the big chair in Zimbabwe, or the fact that many African countries are still largely without power. But nope, we're here drumming our fists and beating down doors because we haven't yet gotten something we were promised, not realizing that a) many people in the world will never make enough money in their entire lives to buy a PS3 and GT6, and b) for most of those people, broken promises are a daily occurrence.

Now wake up and be grateful for what you have and stop bitching about the game.

 

[sparkytooth]

Sorry for the hype guise

Too late, my hype has reached critical mass. The ticker is different than is has been the past few days; it used to have a date behind it

What does that have to do with this particular thread?

Nothing, really; I could have posted this anywhere. But people need to realize there are worse things happening right now than some people aren't getting a promised update to their favorite game, which is why I decided to post it in such an active thread, where people could read it.

I always get so excited when I see that gif. Unfortunately that turns to sadness when the it's not happening gif shows up.

[Griffith500]

Mine has been saying update released since the January update, but today it said the seasonals were updated.

EDIT: still says the former but changes to the latter if you view the seasonal events and come back out.

Listen very very carefully to what I'm going to say.

This is a video game forum on GT. When there is a problem, everybody is going to come here to complain. This is the place to do that.

This is not the place to talk about Ukraine (although, this forum DOES have an off topic section, where there is great discussion on these world issues). There are other places to talk about issues in the real world, such as news sites.

To come here, and say that it is silly that people are complaining about a video game on a site dedicated to it is as daft as going on MSN headlines and posting a comment asking why people all care about what's going on in Ukraine when GT6 is missing an update.

If you honestly have that outlook on the people here, something is very wrong with your judgement of where certain topics should be discussed. This is the exact place for people to complain about GT6. None of these people are ungrateful for complaining here. They're simply voicing their disappointment in the correct place.

Why do you have a problem with that?

 

[Griffith500]

Well, his post gave me pause for thought.

Reminded me of this:
"It is not enough to be industrious; so are the ants. What are you industrious about?"
Henry D. Thoreau.

But you're right anyway.

 

[tam38gti]

Something is wrong. It's been wrong since January. That wasn't a typo in the RedBull events when it said January 1st - they eventually appeared after a cursory apology.
I reckon there's a sizeable problem somewhere, somehow.

I don't. What I do have a problem with is how much hatred and vitriol there is here. My post was simply a rather poorly-targeted and misplaced outburst at it.

Whatever. I'm done playing peacekeeper here. I've been doing it since 2010, trying to make the place happier by making people realize when enough flaming of PD is enough, and frankly the role is beginning to wear a bit thin. I guess now it's time to try to find some other way to be constructive here. At the end of the day I do still love this community and the last thing I'd want to do is hurt it.

Anyway, let's return to the topic:

Chances are the update is 99% done and now in the bugtesting phase. I'd give it another month, now that there's apparently no date included in the news ticker.

 

[CeeJay]

Nobody here really knows when 1.05 will come, so I'll just continue to briefly sign in every day to keep the bonus alive, do the seasonals and play EDF 2025! My new guess is that it will arrive in a fortnight with the next seasonals, and more features than we expect.
EDF! EDF! EDF!

👍👍👍👍👍 yes! EDF EDF!!! Man I'm loving EDF 2025, soooo fun!! It's definitely helping me pass the time waiting for news on GT6

I understand what you mean. I hate to see so much hate on PD for something so small in the great scheme of things.

But it comes down to principles, I think. When a professional company cannot stay true to their word time after time, people start to get upset. It grows even worse when there is no explanation given by the company.

I always have supported PD, but even I am tired of these delays with no explanation. I think that people's emotions are starting to boil over and their patience is beginning to wear thin is all. Mine certainly is.

When the updates are eventually released, all will be okay again and PD will be a loved company.

Ohh wow, so your like one of those spam message that pops up saying (chin pressed against neck) "if you don't read this and share with five friends, your whole family will die"... Or maybe, another picture of kids wanting this many likes or retweets for them to do something about it themselves.

If you want to contribute about stuff like that, do it yourself and keep it to yourself. We may both live in a country where we always have to get our hands into everything, but speak for yourself.

a) Read the post I made under that.
b) I don't really care about likes/retweets/whatever else. Feel free to have whatever opinion on my post you like. That's one of the reasons it's there.

Anyway, I hate to have derailed the conversation in such a way. Can we please get back on topic?
