Audi R8 5.2 Chromline has less PP than regular R8 5.2 but it is more powerful and lighter!

GAZOORacing/86 Race car Base has 403PP whilst the regular 86 GT 12 has 407!
 
I had my game save get corrupted for no reason today, yay. I saved the game after changing some settings in my BMW McLaren F1, quit the game and came back later..when the home screen appeared, all looked normal, until I tried to enter a race, it said I had to get into a car. Which was odd because the BMW car was still listed at the top of the screen.

I couldn't even enter my garage either, it said I had no cars. This isn't true as I have bought every car in the game (I literally spent all day on my birthday buying cars using a 'tip' from IGN). So I bought an acura, went into the garage and all my garage cars were gone. I did see my 784 cars in the stockyard, but they weren't accessible either.

I tried did back up this gamesave to a usb drive (as I frequently do) and the cloud. But that corrupted gamesave was on those as well.

So, long story...long, if you start the game and see a prompt to load the backup file for absolutely no reason, then you know you are hosed.

I also can't restore my 'backup' gamesave from the cloud as you can only restore from that once every 24 hours. So best case scenario, I'm out about 2 hours of gameplay. Worst case scenario, I have to re-do just about all the Super races again. And here I thought I'd be done with the game inside of 2 weeks :ouch: Thankfully, I don't have to re-gold those 🤬 drift challenges, so that in itself is a win :lol:

delete the original save the back up will create a new save with its data..
 
On the Hyundai Click Type R '04, the left side tail light only lights up partway, while the right side lights up completely.
 
Haven't noticed it mentioned yet on the forums but online stability is aweful and i believe there is a problem with private rooms. The clubs and leagues section is abuzz with ruined league nights and mass chaos trying to organize a race night.


We've had our twice weekly races 3 times now, aside from odd track penalty(Matterhorn) we've had no real big issue with running them.

I got some sound issue also with a lot of races where you don't hear engine(only gear whine if its a race car, and silent if its not) at the beginning of a race until you hit the first braking zone...
 
This was probably posted already, but still: while racing on 500PP race (National A career) at Matterhorn with my S2000, as soon as I crossed the line of the 3rd lap I was pushed back into 10th position. Switched to a Evo VI and managed to win the race...oh, and I saw a car doing a wheelie while braking in one of the last chicanes...
 
In GT6 When he took a picture of my TV signal "was lost", this does not happen in GT5. is a bug?

The PSN will do this automatically if I delete the main save on the cloud?

I removed the rear wing from the Mustang SVT Cobra R, but from a far distance, I noticed you can actually see the wing on the car. I would assume this is some sort of incorrect LOD model downscale or something.
 
Just ran the National A "Night Masters" race at Matterhorn, and well, it didn't end. The checkers were waiving at me after the 3rd lap, but the race just kept going and going until I decided to quit at sunrise. :confused:

 
I noticed AI-driven NC Miatas had their reverse lights flash for a second or two when they braked (brake lights seemed fine).

The CTS-V's info says that the first gen CTS-V came with a 5-speed auto and 5-speed manual, with a 6-speed manual being offered in 2005. That info is for the normal CTS. The first gen CTS-V was only ever offered with a 6-speed manual.

The 2003 Infiniti G35 Sedan's info says it was offered with a 3.0L V6 in the US, with a 3.5L coming in 2002. But the US got the G35 as a 2003 model and only ever offered a 3.5, hence the G35 name.

My Ferrari 288 GTO's tach doesn't work. :(

I had this happen once as well. Have taken a ton of pictures since, and hasn't happened again. Freaked me out though, thought my PS3 crapped out.

it should overwrite the save on the cloud. basically what I did,I deleted my original save booted the game up and the backup reloaded the uncorrpected save,and over wrote the one on the cloud. again I tried this on GT 5 originally when I lost power while saving. could be different for GT 6,but I don't see why.

my tv does this all the time taking pictures. didn't do it with GT5
 
Glitches:

1> lap 3/3 on matterhorn track - cross finish line to win ... but no, i have to do lap 3 again(?)! as i re-do lap 3 i notice that the AI cars have dropped their speed dramatically (like they do at the end of a race), i cross the line for the second time and get .... Bronze ?!?!! WTF!. restart the race (bunt out then in again), all goes normally and i win gold, w00t!

2> same race as above. there is a tight RH hairpin under an overpass. coming into it i was lolz at the car doing a nose stand to slow before the corner, WRX using its bumper as brakes.

there are some anomilies in the game, but then what game has ever come out that was bug free from release (apart from indie titles and any game before the advent of online updates (read: bugfix's)) (anyone who play BF or COD know this)

many are complaining about the ingame music not working(proper)? personally i cant stand the ingame music(noise) and turn it and the menu music OFF.

many are complaining about the overly noisy tyres? dont go soo hard around the corner and they much quieter. my mate complains about it whilst i watch him going around corners so hard the fronts are sideways and he wonders why all the noise (not having a go at him ;) ). unfortunately this leads to one of my biggest gripes about the game, see below.

Gripes:

1> you have to drive beyond reasonable limits of the car to win or get the time. i have noticed that every contest in this game requires you to push the car and your skills beyond the limit, forcing you to drive sideways and recklessly just to achieve the end result. IMO not the best way to win. yes it great to go superfast and sideways but it not really teaching me how to use the car/track properly, especially when you are forced to drive like this in licencing!

2> far too easy to get through the game. compared to GT5 this version is way too easy (i keep unconciuosly thinking i need to set the difficulty up - but there is none). my mate, from above, spends a fair amount of time playing and he is already 3/4 the way through (for him is pretty quick), i am about 40+% through and i dont spend all day playing, im hardly trying and im already nearly half way through?? GT5 had us playing and trying to finish over the course of 6 months, not 3 weeks! i stil not finished GT5 (din do all the licence or all the endurance). so far the ONLY things ive not got gold in are the silly "nock down the wiches hats" (only the coffee break ones, not the lunar(that was fun too)) and the stupid drift trials (time and drift trials were also the only things i did not bother with in GT5) and as they dont bother me im not counting them as part of finishing the game from my POV.

3> what the hell happened to sharing/gifting?!

i just glad my original Driving Force wheel is still alive and kicking goals ;-)

prolly some other stuff too, but ...

Okay so I ran the races same races again today and guess what? My gamesave got automatically corrupted somehow again. I'm thinking this is somewhat related to what happened in GT5 when people opened/used the history car cards or whatever they were.

I'm making a video of what happens when the gamesave is corrupted. This is a serious issue. I won't go back and play career mode again until this is fixed I guess it's about time for my first GT6 online race! Thankfully I still have the one good gamesave 👍

I don't have much to go on, but here's what I suspect thus far:

1) The gamesave corrupts after you reach about 80% complete in career mode (anyone confirm thats not true?)
2) You 'shouldn't' have more than 22 million credits. My 'good' save is at 22 million and both times it's been corrupted, I was up to 23 million.
3) Gamesave file gets corrupted after completing one of the following events that I've recently done twice:
- Nascar races in IA
- Like the wind races in IA
- Suzuka 10 lap race in Super
- Silverstone 10 lap race in Super
4) You shouldn't have over 1250 cars between your garage and stockyard (484, 786 respectively)
5) Don't glitch for credits/cars? I see this as highly doubtful as I did this numerous times and the corrupted file only started days after I stopped glitching.
6) Manually saving after having 20 million or too many cars? I am thinking manually saving after having over 20 million does it? But thats just a thought more than anything.
7) Turning my SCR-Elite wheel off after I am done racing and starting a controller up to save and exit the game.
I will note that in both cases I have simply exited the game, not shut the ps3 down. And I have heard a few beeps when exiting GT6, but that hasn't been for many days now.

Here's the video of what happens after my gamesave gets corrupted:

During a 2 hour endurance race online, at the 48 minute mark a message popped up "replay recording stopped". It did however record the whole race.

In GT3 it did this as well, but it did stop at that point tho. Oh well. PD has a lot of work to do.

I did see this as well on my Toshiba HD TV. After one of those secret updates, it has not been so bad with the picture loading after a snap. I mentioned this in another thread, the Merc SL500? and the Subaru with a missing taillight are still in GT6 (both cars are updated standards).
 
Also having my game freeze with the ps3 needing to check system integrity afterward.
Happens randomly I think. Most recently on the first lunar mission.

Is this any issue with the data installed on the HDD or the disc or just the whole game itself atm?
Should I return the disc?

i would have thought that any internal Checksum would have alerted the system to a corruption ... or dont we do checksum any more, devs?
o'course i not a coder so wtf wuld i kno, heheh ;)
 
1. Tyre squeel sound continues excessively in endurance races. It sounds like the car has very little grip all the time.

2. Intermediate tyres don't wear in 24 minutes of LeMans race.
 
Was racing online at ascri 12laps with a mandatory pit stop and the guy in first ran out of gas but had enough of a lead that he still won and it gave everyone in the room buy the skin of your teeth trophy whether they were in the race or not
 
Had exactly the same thing after i completed 97% of Career and i never did any glitch, i played alraedy over 270hours about 10'000km and had a loss of about 10mio Cr. i was pretty surprised and after i realised that i loss everything i was pretty angry, ;-)! (Couldnt even install my 25 anniversary cars).
Whatever i deleted my gamesave and started my career new.
Just hope this time its better
 
Posted this on the fixing wishlist thread:

Don't know if this has been mentioned, but when you repaint the body or wheels of some cars with a customisable racing number, the number is gone once the cars is painted, meaning that you have to readjust it again :grumpy: :rolleyes:. I noticed this whist repainting my Nissan GTR GT3 Base model, but not with the Megane Trophy Base model. I'll try it out again once I get back on GT6...
 
Another Ferrari GTO (VERY annoying) bug: sometimes in online mode it exits the pit lane at 10 km/h. It hasn't happened to me with any other car.

European League races in International B at Ascari (race 3 I believe). It is set up as a 3 lap race and when I ran the M4, the game counted my 2nd and 3rd laps as one lap and made me do a fourth lap. After letting me run the entire last lap until it was over, I got 1 star and 12th place.

That's what you get for cutting corners. Don't leave track and you'll be fine
 
Not sure if mentioned but:
E-Brake doesn't work in GTR Blck Edition in 2player mode.
Sometimes car rolls slowly even though you have the brake on.
Track is pitch black in night races when using the Vision GT. Impossible to see.
Setting any after market exhaust back to stock, it will still play sound of the previous exhaust, unless u leave track and return.

All picked up in offline mode only.

There are about 30 other ways you could have answered me but I think I was able to cut through your arrogance and see your point.

Sarcasm aside, thanks for the explanation.
