But PD would rather have you to login everyday
Anyway I like the title "Might get new stuff 12/24/2014", instead of "Maintenance notice 12/24/2014"; it made me genuinely smile Lol

And well, since we already had an update, the odds of we getting new stuff after this maintenance are sort of slim, so... We "Might get new stuff 12\24\2014".

no I'm serious, it actually makes sense for them to have you play the game regularly - it's more likely you end up hooked to the game (captain obvious I know, but you get my point#PDlogic

Well, you don't have to play the game to get the bonus. Sometimes all people do is turn the PS3 on, get the bonus and then exit the game without playing. Kinda like I do sometimes...
And besides, rewarding players with money doesn't really work unless there's a penalty system of some sort. Look at Quick Races, they give extra credits to the winner and look how some turn out (crash fests ahoy!)...I don't have to play GT6 regularly to keep the 200% bonus. Most of the time I load the game, wait for the login bonus message, save, then go play something else.no I'm serious, it actually makes sense for them to have you play the game regularly - it's more likely you end up hooked to the game (captain obvious I know, but you get my point

I never said login bonus encourages bad driving. I said bonus credits for aids off and sim options on encourages players to improve their skills. Bonus credits for clean laps, clean overtakes & clean races would be nice too.
You should take a look at this thread.
As for quick match lobbies, PD should split them into casual lobbies (all aids allowed, no damage, no penalties) and hardcore lobbies (no SRF, heavy damage, strong penalties, real grip offtrack), with hardcore lobbies having better payouts, and maybe a credit deduction for quitting during the race (in case some idiot wants to enter a hardcore lobby just to cause a pile up on the first corner then leave).

Ok, that idea you gave is actually a really good idea. Choosing different styles of lobbies could in fact improve driving conditions. If you're doing a championship or a serious race, pick the hardcore lobbies. For simple races and cruise lobbies, pick casual ones. Punshing quitters also would work reasonably well if it was to be implemented.

Doesn't matter, it's still a way to keep you in the "GT circle", making sure you come back and check what's new (updates, seasonal events, etc.)
Being a GTplanet member you probably already read every news here first, but not every GT owner does that
Anyway good idea on the penalties for quitters/***holes! Even though they could quickly turn off the PS3 without consequences, I guess.

. . . and no doubt still has to come to grips with the niceties of universal orthography.
I want presents PD! Lots of them. I have been a good GT boy.

It's just small fixes. That's what I think.

I don't know, I haven't figured out anything sufficiently threatening.
