Porsche Carrera GT invitation required

[Meythia]

I think it’s crappy that if you sell a car, it doesn’t count towards the menu book.

"And at this special place in my museum, there once was a beauty of a Porsche. You may take pictures of the now vacant space."

 

[Goldin]

I am not sure if it is placebo or not, but I recived invitations for Ferrari and Bugatti not long after I placed cars on wishlist, so that may, or may not help.


It would be better system for those cars under invitations if they have requirement to buy all other, for example Ferrari cars that are availible in UCD and new car dealership and after that reqirement is completed to have open possibility to buy car that is now under invitation.

 

[BlackHGT]

I'm on the other side... have already bought all the invitation cars (I think there were once all invitations from PD as compensation after the first big *********).
Since then, it feels like I get an invitation in every 5th ticket... and dont need it :/

I've also been waiting for a Porsche invitation for donkeys. The last two days in a row, I've got four-star tickets, which both gave me invites for Lamborghini. Fantastic.

Haven't cashed them in, just in case we get an update.

 

[Lomic]

you've received 630 DW tickets or did you miss some days/weeks/months ?

All my invites so far : (since launch but have had two 6 months hiatus)

Porsche	2
Pagani	3
Ferrari	2
Bugatti	1

And for the Porsche invite, I've never needed it because I won the invite car with a DW ticket.

Still waiting for :

• Aston Martin
• Lamborghini
• Citroën

GT7 must be trolling me, I received Citroën invite yesterday and Aston Martin today !!! 😱

Can't wait for Lambo invite tomorrow 🤣

 

[Akwaaba]

I need a Ferrari invitation to unlock the last couple of liveries I made in GT Sport, before the servers get switched off. It doesn't bother me too much if I can't retrieve them, but it'd be nice if I can. The chances are extremely low though!!

 

[Chikane_GTR]

Man it really hurts me to sit here owning all invite cars.

Aston Martin Vulcan - X8
Aston Martin One-77 - X7
Bugatti Veyron - X29
Ferrari FXX-K - X20
Ferrari Laferrari - X20
Ferrari Enzo - X20
Lamborghini Veneno - X9
Porsche Carrera GT - X10
Pagani Huayra - X25

And seeing so many still waiting for a invite almost 2 years later.

 

[OldandSlow]

No sense in worrying about things I can't control.

And seeing so many still waiting for a invite almost 2 years later.

And here am I, pondering since yesterday if I should buy the FXX-K with my invite which expires in 2 hours, or not.
Not because I couldn't afford it but because I'm afraid I would drive it around Nordschleife once and then it would collect dust in my garage.
Same reason why I didn't buy the Vulcan when I had the invitation.

My advice would be to buy it even if you only drive it once since cause you never know you may never get another ferrari invite.

Since I got my ferrari invite in may I have gotten every other invite multiple times but never the ferrari invite again.

But its up to you.👍

 

[Daxus]

If you've selected the car as favorite, cancel that. My friend did that with Ferrari and he got an invite after waiting for a year. Could be a coincidence

Nope.

No I don't think so getting a invite is just down to luck and nothing else.

I've been waiting for the Porsche invitation for over an year already. I'm 100% convinced that PD doesn't want me to ever have this car.

And to make things even worse, all I've been getting recently from the daily marathon are useless 3-star tickets. I haven't seen a 4-star one for weeks now.

The whole artificial scarcity thing is by far the WORST aspect of GT7. I sincerely hope we don't have to deal with used dealership, hagerty's and this invitation nonsense again for GT8.

 

[anh165]

The best response to this is **** Porsche and the horse it rode on ...

The invitation system is translated from the shady real-world practice of the car dealer networks, artificial scarcity of luxury goods if orchestrated in the right way can yield lucrative profits. They do this by making customers buy cars that they do not want just so they can get on the waiting list, over a course of 2-3 years the dealer have profiteered by selling less desirable cars in addition to the inflated price of the car that the customer is waiting for ...

So by building a 'relationship' with the right dealer you get further up the queue to obtain that sought after car. Unless you are a whale and by default you can gazump 99% of the buyer pool ...

It works the same with certain brands of Swiss watches ...

 

[mercgoat]

Still need the Bugatti myself. Received every other invite at least twice. I own every other invite car besides the Veyron. Not sure I ever seen Bugatti in the wheel even as a loser honestly. I just wanna finish the menu!!! Glad to have learned the ticket trick with updates so it could help. Been wishlisted the entire time too.

Wow, I get one every 3-4 weeks or so and so far it’s literally always for the same car - the Porsche, ironically enough!

 

[Accord24]

Waiting for Porsche invite and a Shelby cobra 427 to become for sale (not the mustang in legends mid Jan 2024). Invitation method agree with everyone pain in arse. Keep getting pagani.

 

[Lomic]

They do this by making customers buy cars that they do not want just so they can get on the waiting list.

If only this was an option in GT7, I'd happily buy more of the brands I need an invite.

 

[isuckatparkin]

I'm trying to complete Extra Menu No. 29, I just need the Porsche Carrera GT but I require an invitation to buy this car. Is my only chance to keep doing the Daily Workout and hope for the best?

I've never really had the credits for the cars in the invitations I get (I blow it the minute I get it on maxing out my abundant stock of stock cars), but I got really lucky on the final roulette ticket from the last menu book of the main campaign, and got the CGT. I just feel more bad for the people who got the Aventador SV as their final car lol

 

[FullLoader]

At last! At last! I finally got a Porsche Invitation! It was through the New Year Login Campaign, on Day 2 I got a 4 star roulette ticket and after 15 months of waiting I finally got lucky!

I still believe that car invitations are 1000000000000000% the worst thing about GT7. To make one of the three cars required for an Extra Menu Book an invitation car is ridiculous (at least if it was a Used Car or a Legend Car it will eventually show up). Extra Menu Books 15 (Bugatti), 38 (Ferrari 12-Cylinder Engines) & 42 (Ferrari Speciale) are the same as this one (29 Porsche Supercars) but luckily I got those cars ages ago (before Extra Menu Books even existed on GT7).

Please please please Polyphony Digital remove car invitations from GT7 immediately and don't even think about including them in GT8.

So you can open a ticket, see what's inside, then shut the game down to restore the ticket.

Ok l called out sick the day common intelligence was being passed around...

1. How do I shut the game down for this too work?

 

[TumeK5]

How do I shut the game down for this too work?

Have you tried pressing the PS button? Like...ever?

By console, the PS button...
PS4: takes you to the console's main menu, which then allows you to select the game with Options > Close the game
PS5: opens an overlay menu with multiple options, including the game, which you can select to close.

Tried this way once and multiple times I still got the original invite, heard you have to either pull the powerplug or disconnect the internet for this trick to work....

I have been able to do this by just closing the game just fine.

No. Simply shutting the game down without exiting the ticket screen is enough.

You will always restore the ticket and it will always reveal the same prize (which is why we know it's predetermined) - but you're missing a crucial step:

"But why?"... Each game content update changes the prize tables behind the tickets. There is a small chance that the reward the ticket contains will change after an update, but it will only generate the same kind of prize. That means a ticket that has an Invitation in it will always have an Invitation in it, but it might change brands after an update.

A content update changes the prize tables. Redrawing the ticket after the update might - might - change it from one prize to another prize of the same type, although my current numbers say it happens about 8% of the time (and credit rewards never change their values).

So a Ferrari invite will not change into a Lamborghini?

Read the reply again.

 

[Savolainen83]

It is simple.

First, you open the ticket and see what it gives you.

Next, if it's something you don't like, you shut down the game then and there, DO NOT accept the prize or exit the prize screen, just shut the game or disconnect internet.

Lastly, wait until after a game update and then re-open the ticket. The prize may or may not have changed.

Like Famine said, cash prizes don't change. It only affects invites, parts/engines and cars.

If there is no update, just claim the prize or let it expire.

Okay thank you
