Notice of Account Ban measures

The only cars I have obtained via editing are the X2010 5G, and the X2010 JP Flag Color, simply because they're not found anywhere else in the game. I'd have a feeling that the X2010 JP Flag Color could have been DLC or something, since you can't borrow the car.

I deleted all the hybrids that I borrow-glitched because I frankly don't care about them; I only sought after them because it was something different. Not like I would actually use the cars anyway, so it's a moot point...

I just like having things that aren't implemented into the game. I mean, I don't see anything game-breaking going on with the X2010 5G or the X2010 JP Flag Color, but Polyphony obviously doesn't want us to have these cars (yet, maybe, who knows). Though, I still obtained them through means of modification, so there rests another point.

...and well, that's the end of my stance on this ordeal. I have yet to check and see if I'm possibly banned, but I doubt it. I'm curious for another patch~

I'd say the real question here is 'Will they ban the PS3 ID or just the PSN ID?'
Reading around the net I'm thinking they may go for the PS3 - and then you're 🤬

The notice PD gave us meant that they will only prevent you from accessing online features of GT5. If you get this ban then you should still be able to go online with other games.
 
PD cannot ban you from psn, only playing GT5 online. Sony are the only ones who can ban you from psn. Sony have not issued any ban warning.

I don't play the game anymore but if I did personally I wouldn't give a damn about banning the people doing it. What I would be wanting to see is the hacking actually stopped, hopefully PD are also working on that. Banning people doesn't solve the issue and yes, no matter what you use it for illicit hacking is, on the whole, an issue.

This is a very peculiar comment that I'm not sure I understand.
It's like you're saying you don't want people given citations or to receive fines, and you wouldn't care if anyone went to prison or not... but you want all crime "actually stopped". :boggled:
Like "The Minority Report"? :lol: :crazy:

RE: "PS3 banning" - I don't think the person speculating is talking about banning your account from other games. I think they're talking about having ALL your accounts on that PS3 banned from GT5.
This I imagine would be possible since you can't send cars as gifts more than one a day, even from other accounts on the ps3, for example. Though I have no idea if that's what would happen with a GT5 account ban, it doesn't specify that obviously.

Hahaha, no it isn't. It is like he said he isn't bothered about people getting bans but he is bothered about the exploit being closed.

Well wishing that all possible exploits holes were closed (or never existed) so that hacking could not occur in the first place IS very much like wishing you could prevent all crime before it happened.
It's an unrealistic wish.
 
As far as I have seen, it's just been people who use their hacks on Seasonal events, mainly the time/drift trials. And also accessing the developers menu and tweaking their name and flag. Otherwise other people that have been using them away from the seasonal events have been fine. I have tested aswell. I set up a dummy account with a 2,xxx,xxx hp X1, did every seasonal event possible. I woke up this morning not able to access any online capabilities on that account. My primary is still absolutely fine and working.

Again, Hybrids in GT is nothing new. This was bound to happen sooner or later. The only reason it's such a huge issue now is because of online play. If there was no online play or no way to use them online we wouldn't be having these discussions.
 
Though it really isn't hacking per se. I guess everyone has their definitions.

Incorrect, it was a huge issue going back to GT1 days.

I agree with R1600turbo. The problems began with online play. Tos service may have been violated back in the day with GT 1 2 3 and 4 but only effected the individual offline game. and was not destructive to other gamers gameplay. Its like comparing apples to oranges.
 
It has always affected GT. Hybrids have always been around. Look through the GTP archives and you'll see old Hybrid threads.

Maybe but it wasn't a problem such as it is now with online play. And that's all it comes down to.

Feel free to set up an offline race series and then show me how you will go about protecting against the use of hybrids.

Offline race series were never anywhere near as widespread as online play in GT5 is, so R1600's point about how it wasn't as big of an issue for previous games remains correct.

It played a huge part going back to 1998, and continues to be part of GT. I'm sorry but you can't wipe over a decade of GT history.

I don't think you are understanding me. YES, hybrids have always been a huge part of GT. What I am pointing out is that it wasn't a PROBLEM until now due to online play. Not sure why that's so hard to understand.

And you can't give that history that much more importance than it actually has. There's no way to equate the significance of GT5's officially included online play being disrupted by hybrid cars to the various GT1-GT4's offline fan-run competitive events being disrupted by hybrid cars. Offline competitive events are a niche, be they photomode competitions, drag racing or even straight up time trials. Actual online play as an included feature is not, which is why hybrids are such a problem in comparison.


They simply aren't remotely comparable in terms overall importance to the game; and the fact that this is the first game where hybrid cars have popped up that there has been such vicious backlash against them should be evidence enough of that.
