Notification of Maintenance 19/08/2014, 20/08/2014

[RACECAR]

Yeah but it doesn't have any use unless you race online so it was a pointless addition to the game same old PD.

Explain how the track has no use.

 

[GolimLongshanks]

Looks like it's broken down. Only six or so posts in the last hour.

The cousins are all safely tucked up in bed now

 

[ghostrider135]

I don't race online and I've clocked plenty of laps around both variants of the Red Bull Ring. Same old GTP users, only thinking about how they play the game, and not how others might.

Ok perhaps the way that sounded was abit short sighted let me add to what I said, For a game that is supposedly modular in its build why could PD not have added it into some of the events or added events for it in the single player where people spend time to grind credits ?

Explain how the track has no use.

There you go explained

 

[QuattroDelta]

230 minutes to escape.

 

[gambleboyen]

I know it starts at 14:00 here and now it's 11:40...

Yes but you won't know what the result is before the window closes?

 

[GolimLongshanks]

230 minutes to escape.

Actually the start time is irrelevant. It's when it ends and no update appears that all hell will break loose!

 

[TokoTurismo]

I saw what you did there. I like F-- too, but not as much. The bots are almost as bad as the ones in GA, the driving isn't as intuitive, and the driver views are meh. But darn, you can create race cars till... your 360 red rings. I hope I get mine back by this weekend...

What you talkin about? I was talking about. Uh. Funimation, yeah. lol

And wait second how come @jimipitbull didn't stop you from going off topic but did attempted with me? Now I know...

they never said there would be an update, so its a real possibility.

What? You are aware of practice and arcade mode right? Are you saying that any content you can't use in career mode is a usless content?

 

[ghostrider135]

Yes I am well aware of those modes but they hardly add much to the game to be truthful, As I added for anyone wanting a car collection grinding is required, And guess what in all my time grinding for credits I have only been able to use the track and its variations in seasonal events that are gone within weeks so it was hardly worth adding in the first place.

Even if they did and it didn't reward a high value of credits per time then everyone would still be doing the same races for grinding. Nothing really comes close to the Like the Wind SSRX event and X1 championships.

In my opinion its the "career" races that hardly add much to the game compared to the level of competition online. I ones went online back in GT5 and have never been able to enjoy the offline events since..

But one does it how one likes it the most..



aaaaand we're off topic..

 

[sosa]

This is even more bizzare. So actualy if they release the Zahara and add it in any beginers race you wouldn't be pleased because doing a 30km course for just 4.000 Cr. is not profitable enough for you = pointless.

So, no more new tracks in GT6 unless they can be incorporated into the career part of the game? !

 

[Pophead]

Hour to go until today's maintenance

 

[Stephanos82]

Seriously, this thread has become pointless..

 

[fortbo]

Do updates usually come at the start of the maintenance?

 

[kevboi]

Do updates usually come at the start of the maintenance?

No usually at the end, I don't think it's necessarily straight afterwards either, pretty sure the last update came the day after maintenance, correct me if I m wrong. Also updates usually come very early in the morning (UK Time), I don't remember one ever happening at 3pm in the afternoon

 

[diegorborges]

At this point I could even pay 20.000Cr for a lap. (j/k but it was cool in GT4 that you had to pay your entry on trackdays etc... it actually had proper trackdays...)

Just give me that beauty.

 

[Stylel_Code]

Do updates usually come at the start of the maintenance?

What.? if they did how would you download it before maintenance is down?

 

[Pophead]

Do updates usually come at the start of the maintenance?

From personal experience, if an update will come it will be released 15-30 mins after the maintenance starts.

My experience though

 

[IngRobNy]

40 min left to the next maintenance. This is very exciting, do we get a update with new features and some new 2014 cars today or is it just a regular maintenance? I do not hope for much, but my imagination is running wild.

 

[diegorborges]

@fortbo I don't know what's your timezone but it seems that you were here for the last few hours? I remember going to bed and seeing a post of yours and now you're spreading likes.

 

[fortbo]

I'm back! Where is my Zahara!

 

[Pophead]

I'm back! Where is my Zahara!

You have still got 36 minutes of 1.12 winging to go, probably if there is an update

 

[fortbo]

I honestly think there won't be an update though.

 

[diegorborges]

I honestly think there won't be an update though.

I'm starting to work with this possibility too. Anyway GTA V had it and it's awesome. And my PS3 backlog is huge right now. But you know... GT it's like that book you must read a bit almost every single day. It's been like this since 1998 for me.

 

[chzsln485]

I honestly think there won't be an update though.

You're probably right, but we can all dream once in a while, right? Even it if it'll end in hideous disappointment and considerable whining on the Internet?

 

[Haitauer]

Seriously, this thread has become pointless..

It actually would be great to make threads just for the chatter while waiting updates. That way the actual thread for the update would stay clean and informative. 💡👍 (and the "chat room" could be closed/deleted after the maintenance is over)

Just that the chatter prior to these maintenances is highly entertaining

I agree. Helps to endure the wait and we have some fun
