You've got to be kidding me. My game just locked up while doing a Speed Test in my JP Flag Color. It worked the first time, what happened now?
Oh no...Please no.

Disregard what I said earlier...The X2010 JP Flag Color is now useless. The game will lock up if you attempt to drive it.
Sadly I guess I'm going to have to delete it from my garage.

Looks like everything hybrid related is going now. It was fun though.

Did... you get banned?
We won't know until the servers come back up whether people have been banned.

Ok thank God (for now). I thought PD started handing out the ban-hammer to those with hybrids.
And I updated. Of all of my brainless moments.
I don't know yet if people have been banned or not. Like I said when the servers come back up we will all know.

got separate accounts for hybrids and main...thank god that idea popped up back then.
Just made a wingless mustang GT,Twin turbo, Ford GT40 engine, wingless, on a wider chassis.
I did visit my main account and did some races...but then just went back to modding again.

Confirmed Unpaintable cars that were painted through modding retained their modded colors. Just checked my black Impreza Prototype Rally Car and it's still black.

Well we have 20 mins before the maintenance is "scheduled" to finish. I say that because they may go over.

....And thus the GT online community was split into the west and east GT. East GT blocked the supply railroad, but West GT will design the PD Airlift....

Well, looks like i won't be playing GT5 online for awhile, just going to delete the update and ACTUALLY enjoy the game.. Once again, PD doesn't know the word FUN.
Let me also say i've never raced a hybrid online. I do not agree with people taking them online and cheating. It's just something to enjoy with friends in my lounge, and and now all that fun is gone..

Thankfully I still have my copy of Gran Turismo 2. Looks like I'll be busting through that game for a bit.

We did. The PP System worked fine. You couldn't build a car that broke the PP system.
But, in all it's wisdom, PD has not patched super soft tires so the ACTUAL CHEATING can still persist. BRILLIANT! Piss off the people who played within the rules of the game and let the cheaters slide.💡

Same here.
Thankfully I haven't installed the patch yet. Since I had previously resigned a save file and copied it to my new account, I can now play online with my old account, and have fun with my hybrids on my new main account.
Nothing's lost for me!

One thing I forgot to mention was that PD possibly patched hybrids because of the licenses they have for the car manufacturers and maybe somewhere in the license states that no other manufacturer parts should be interchangeable between the cars.
Such as the Ferrari F1 cars. They weren't allowed to race with any other cars except the Ferrari F1s because of the license from Ferrari stated that you're not allowed to race the F1 cars against other manufacturers.

Wait, I'm confused. How does this work again?Same here.

Updating affects the Game Data, which is the SAME for ALL accounts on one particular PS3. Therefore, how can you play 2.11 GT5 while at the same time have a 2.12 GT5?

This kind of stuff is total BS. Not worth it to feature their cars if they have "conditions".

This. And has anyone actually seen this F1 contract that says that? Or are we making assumptions?

While this Update has indeed taken quite the toll on players and hybriders alike, I feel as though this was a bonding experience. Working together, we've been picking this update apart piece-by-piece to see what this 24MB of hell changed to GT5.
Just goes to show that even the negative things in life can really draw a community together.
