Fixed.

Please do know your rights as a consumer. Don't be fooled to get exploited by hardware/software gaming companies, and don't let them know you're willing to.

Truth be told, I would HAPPILY pay $25 for this combo. Perhaps even more. But that's OK. I'll send it in English.
 
Someone should ask him WHY he keeps short-changing North America and WHEN he plans to give us all the chromelines and stealths (including the new GTR) so US players no longer have to trade for codes to complete our collections.

I'm compltely serious about this. I know we have people here who speak Japanese, so someone please do this.
 
has anyone asked him about the ridiculous paint system and if they'll implement one most humans would have thought of i.e a paint shop, i spent 300k on a car just to get the paint chip and it didnt even give me the paint chip, these silly little things all add up to me refusing to buy anything from pd again

As i remember it is supposed to be exclusive ;)

I think we got seven new cars (including things like the Gumpert Apollo, BMW Procar and the 8c Competizione) and a Cote D'azure clone (and three variations on it) for $20 on the old Shift.

Get your money's worth. That's daylight robbery at that price!

I'd like to know his answer to this too (about shortchanging, especially considering it would have cost less to just release one "signature" edition globally), but I don't think those cars (the non-US stealths and the new GT-R) are ever coming to our shores.

As I recall someone who interviewed him before the game came out asked him about future DLC and I believe he said he was opposed to it. Found an article to this effect here.

The difference was, Shift wasn't worth playing. At least to me.
 
considering that ORECA and nissan both already have a close involvement with PD, I would be shocked if that car isn't in an eventual DLC, not even mentioning whose driving it.

as for the track, I doubt we'll ever see sebring, as it, like road atlanta and mosport, is part of the panoz group, and as you may notice, there isn't any premium panoz cars, full season ALMS cars or panoz group tracks in GT5, while there is panoz group content in both forza motorsport and iRacing games.

the DLC pack for NFS: shift was 10 dollars USD, not a good price, but at least you got a legendary track out of it (side note: when did a monaco clone become a "cote d'azur clone"? the legendary gran prix track came first...)
 
I'm going to ask him about that livery editor that was suposed to be in... Been getting my livery Replica fix on MCLA for so far...

Don't forget the 5 muscle-cars that we got for free at christmas, last year.

that pack+ the exotics were awesome.
 
Dont you just love how some guy just snitched about the SSR7 glitch to Yamauchi?

I do. It stings scratching edlessly for credits and xp, then being away from your ps3 for a week while some glitch is discovered, and watching as everyone hurdles past you.

Will be watching this thread intently waiting for the tweet saying it's fixed!
 
I need to get on this ASAP. I'll be fashionably late to the party.

The guys in the glitch thread are talking about tuning for doing donuts quicker than the opponents. This ******** happens only in GT5.
 
New tweets.

Here's an example of how NOT to fix something :nervous::

Kaz_Yamauchi: タイヤ摩耗オプションをOFFにすればいいんですが、デフォルトでOFFの方がいいかな。RT @butabana02turbo: @Kaz_Yamauchi オフラインに比べてオンラインではグリップが低下するのは仕様ですか、不具合ですか?対策予定はありますか?
Kaz_Yamauchi: you could turn OFF the tire wear option, but maybe it would be better to have it OFF by default? RT @butabana02turbo: @Kaz_Yamauchi that compared to offline, online [tire] grip degrades is a bug or a feature? Are fixes planned?

This was also noticed by some GTPlanet users:

Kaz_Yamauchi: そっか、なるほど。PSNの仕組みだから解決できるかどうかわからないけど検討してみましょう。RT @oguchorin: @Kaz_Yamauchi Bスペック、24時間耐久。家に帰ってきたら、アップデートの通知で強制終了されてました。
Kaz_Yamauchi: I see indeed. Since it's a PSN contrivance I don't know if it will be possible to solve this, but we'll investigate about it. RT @oguchorin: @Kaz_Yamauchi B-Spec, 24h endurance. As I come back home, I realize that it's been forcefully terminated by the update notification.

Remote races updated. So Yamauchi plays GT5 too (a little):

Kaz_Yamauchi: リモートレース、更新しました。レースの数も増えていますが、微妙にUIも進化しています。最近、時間がないせいでリモートレースばかりやっています。ライセンス・オールゴールドにしてから、配信ボーナスレースはなんとかクリアしているけれど、なかなかAスペックが進まない。
Kaz_Yamauchi: Remote Races, they have been updated. The number of races has increased, but the UI has also subtly evolved. As of late, as I don't have time, I do only remote races. Since I golded all licences, I cleared most online bonus races, but I haven't progressed A-spec much.

As if we did not know, very telling and damning statement.

So they made the licences easier so he could gold them and have changed the XP so he will be able to get through Aspec without too much grinding ? :rolleyes::banghead:

Nobody had to snitch anything to Kaz. It's all anyone was talking about; did you think he wouldn't catch wind eventually?

Does anyone know where the PD offices are?
 
Did Kaz ever wrote a tweet (stupid word.) about any add-ons or downloads for the game?
Or do we just have to wait and see if we get any new cars or tracks in the game?

Because they could really extend the life of the game if they do so.
 
Someone ask him where the YT upload feature is, also to fix the Ferrari F1 gear ratios and shift times.

I don't know how many times its been posted its not possible to have the yt feature there is not enough memory in the ps3 forum search is your friend:tdown:

And do you really think he going to answer that question with whats going down today, some people just have there heads in the sand when it comes to the real world
