Good for you. You can play the gt life mode while those who don't like grinding play a different mode with most, if not all cars are available.
Still have no idea where this whole comparison between offline and online racing is coming from, but hey, I'll play along. Point to me a person who complains about offline but not online racing, and then explain to me how racing online and offline is the same when I've already pointed out some rather big differences, differences that justify why one might enjoy online but not offline racing.
Okay.
How so?
Thanks but no thanks.
Exactly. Grinding is not fun. There is nothing enjoyable about grinding. The joy of this or any game is actually playing the game for a challenge, for racing, for a TT, for the career, for moving along and advancing in the game. Or for playing online, racing against real players. Or modifying cars, or tuning cars or whatever, just something productive and useful to the game. Grinding is boring and repetitive and adds nothing to the gameplay and actually takes valuable time away from doing what you really want to do which is race, tune, tt, mod etc. I simply don't understand why anyone would ever want to grind, ever.
No, that doesn't really mean anything. I can have time to play a game without having time to put a few hours of "work" into said game to get it in a position to maximize the actual fun part.
Or, put another way:
Not your call to make. If hall90 can keep repeating the same garbage over and over again, people are perfectly free to respond to it.
And there is nothing odd about that in the slightest. Why are you conflating burning through the same races over and over to get credits with taking part in the things people generally build up credits to do in the first place?
I'll defend Grinding here, it sure isn't fun actually grinding but when you actually got what you were grinding for it makes the whole experience better for some players especially with all the effort that went through. You easily grow a personal attachment to it. Reason why I like the normal X2010 so much? Because of the effort I put in to get the car in the first place, I easily put it over the better performing ones just because of how much it means to me.
Grinding is a lot of fun, I am going to grind tonight because my credits are getting down to buy some more cars and tune them up. Some members on here that dig up dirt about me saying I do not like grinding well think again boy's. By the way grinding have made me a better driver 👍.
Who says Hard Dull Work can't be fun, though I guess the actual fun part is when you're finished and you got what you were grinding for
.
Think again about what? No amount of repeating the same dumb statements over and over again changes that up until this topic was raised for GT7, you were against the exact thing you've been "arguing" for in this thread. No amount of repeating the same dumb statements over an over again changes that the things you are claiming to be true have already been explained why they are false literally dozens of times. No amount of repeating the same dumb statements over an over again changes that your words attempting to dictate how good something is are completely meaningless when you went out of your way to not do it.
So it's very rewarding to grind and makes you feel like a million dollars to do so, but I can't have the option to have all cars because you'll feel bad about it if we race online and you don't have the same cars as me? Here's the same argument in reverse. I don't have the time or the interest to grind but I went online anyway and a lot of guys have way more cars than me and I feel bad so come up with a way to give me all the cars they have because I paid the same for the game as they did and can't help it if I don't have hours to put into running repetitive, boring races to earn fake cash to buy the cars I already paid real money for.I'll defend Grinding here, it sure isn't fun actually grinding but when you actually got what you were grinding for it makes the whole experience better for some players especially with all the effort that went through.

That would cause huge problems online, players playing the classic way would have an unfair advantage compared to everyone who decided to get everything at the start. No one who put effort into the cars they acquire can show all their pals as some have already got them at the get go. Not to mention the annoying flame war that will divide the entire fanbase into 2
I was looking at the issue in the buisness stand point. Personally, I wouldn't care if you had the same cars as me without putting any effort but I know other people do and this will cause havoc among the fanbase. With the "Classic" players calling the ones who gt everything "n00bs" and they'll be in defense going "you're just jealous we got all the cars".
How long does it take to acquire 50 cars? Not that long right? 70% of GT6 players, playing the game designed the way you want it, never get that far. How about 100 cars? A few more hours, a Christmas Seasonal that pays $6Million and boom, you're there. 80% of GT6 players never get there.
I believe the faults are in a different direction of the fact that there is too much clones and career mode is rather so open you only need a few cars to beat career mode. If career was something like GT4 and they took put thr clones, I'd expect the results to be differently and really most of the cars were already available in GT5 and GT4, you already got your well earned cars and used them before what's the point on getting the exact same thing without its charm you had with it before. Most of your sources point out to other flaws in GT not about grinding in general.
So locking the cars away even further, behind more and more walls, is your solution to encouraging gameplay among those that want all cars from the start?
I don't know anything about Pokemon, but off the top of my head, isn't the entire idea of pokemon about collecting? Isn't that what the cards are about? GT is a racing game, not a collecting game, although a very small minority use it for that purpose.
Actually no, I've never said anything about falling behind online as the motivation for wanting all cars. I actually think connecting the two modes in any way is silly and regardless of anything else, all cars should be available online at all times for those that want them. I simply want the option to skip the boring career mode and racing offline altogether, because I want to drive and tune cars and race online and in various organized series. I think it's bad game design, to have all these wonderful things to do in the game, but prevent me from doing them before I jump through dozens of hours of the rest of the game I don't enjoy. I love hockey, specifically NHL hockey. If NHL 15 was released and you had to play a season of Junior Hockey + Swedish Hockey + International Leauge just to be able to play games with NHL teams I wouldn't buy the game. Ever. Yes different kind of game, but the principle is the same. However, I wouldn't object if they came up with a second game mode where you had to start a career as a junior player, get drafted, go to the minors, develop your skills over a season, get brought up (and maybe sent down if you don't peform), brought up again, and eventually you become a solid player given the skills and practice.
When GT7 comes out you do not need difficulty sliders in the game, you just have to better your skill level when you play the game and that comes in with practise that make you a better player at it.
Actually no, just banish all the clones and make every event more precise so all the cars in the game have a meaning to get them like in GT4. Reasons why you work a lot to get things in the first place is so they can be used
A separate career mode + all cars from the start for those that want it = problem solved.
Skill is not my shortcoming, time is. Like many GT players, I have a commitments outside of the game. Obviously time is an issue for you too, since you took advantage of the credit glitch to save yourself a lot of time, so you understand what I'm saying, right brother?
