One thing that's annoying me the most is how your in a 10 lap race and it starts to rain and the track is full wet in just 3 to 5 seconds BS in what world does a track get fully wet in just seconds after it starts raining at least give the player a lap to make it to the pits for wet tires. :yuck:

It's because PD really enjoy multipliers in their races. Tyres, fuel, weather, they all regularly run far above 1x (realtime) speed.
 
Half the cars in this game have correctly pitched engine sounds when upgraded, half of them don't. Some of them aren't even pitched correctly when stock! Surely some of you have noticed this.

The Extra Cafe Menus. They have to go.

Started today with 4.8mill, noticed the Porsche for the recently added Porsche extra menu book is in the Legendary dealership, so picked it up. Now this is a 4.5mill car, so it wiped out my bank, so for 4.5mill you expect a very good reward, right? Because it's not like I'm going to drive this 4.5mill Porsche often if at all - there are no races for it and I can't sell it...

But the reward is an engine ticket. And that ticket rewarded me with...

A Z4 engine.

Yep. A 4.5 million credit BMW Z4 engine.

Previously I've debated and argued against the accusations that PD are treating GT7 like a car-collecting game. I would like to apologize. I was wrong. I can't think of any other logical reason why PD would want me to grind the same races repeatedly to gain enough credits to buy a 4.5 million credit Porsche, just to reward me with a BMW Z4 engine. The point was obviously just to grind hours and hours away to buy a Porsche that there isn't really any races for. It was just about getting me to buy the Porsche. That was the point for PD.

Mine was a K20 engine! 😂 I shut my PS5 down so hopefully get a better one after the next update!

During a 10 lap plus race and the AI cars do repeated pit manoeuvres on you, while they stick to the track like glue when you try and do it back.
Also the constant rolling starts, and starting last each time, meaning you have little chance of winning the race, unless you get lucky.
 
Removal of items when creating a livery. I haven't let it get to me too bad as I've been able to work around it with replica decals, but I found a car that just takes the cake. The S13 Silvia. Who's bright idea was it to treat badges as decals? I just want to change the license plate, but suddenly actual physical badges, with depth and everything, disappear. There's no decal that can fix that!
 
What annoys me are the the players that do not like how they are doing in the current daily race and quit. They just quit, don't have the balls to just stick it out, they will not learn anything by quitting. I know I'm not great, sometimes not even good, but I do not quit no matter how bad it may get. I'm just annoyed at the lack of integrity in the racers in general.

Sarah telling me to take a break, I'll take one Sarah when I completed the challenge I'm doing, ok? and not before, got it? :)

Especially when you're only on your third attempt...

"I've only been driving for 40 seconds, Sarah! Okay? I can hop in my real car and drive for an hour fine! Should I be taking a break every 40 seconds there as well, Sarah? Huh? Should I, Sarah!?!"

Man, I feel sorry for the lady whose image was used for Sarah. She's probably just walking around her home town and wondering why random people keep shouting "HOW ABOUT YOU TAKE A F'ING BREAK, SARAH!?" at her.

Imagine doing the human comedy maggiore 1h endurance.
You tried this race so many times but there something always goes wrong and you dont win. However this time everything is going great and, entering the last corner of the last lap, you are in 1st. Just 1 one more corner and you finally win. But suddently rubilar comes from behind and hard rams you off the track. In the last corner of the last lap!!!
Happened to me a couple of months ago.
I almost uninstalled the game.

I too had an insanely awful experience with that mission!! I don't have the free-time to really attempt 1-hour races very often, so when I got Covid back in June (thankfully very mild and took the anti-viral meds) and all of a sudden had full-days to myself, I decided to tackle the comedy missions. Soooo much fun, gold all but two and two silvers with Lake M left. I know it is considered difficult by viewing threads on here. So I tackle the CE, but can't get gold for the life of me, but I'm very close. So I try the race and it felt like I've never played before. Unlike you, I was no where close to the front!! In fact, for the first 5-or-so laps I'm fighting for P19... P1 is gaining time on me non-stop. I'm trying to keep my cool but the frustration was growing. Forget gold, I'm good with Silver only need top 5. About 40-mins into the race and I'm in P20 and probably 10+ seconds off P19, but maybe I can still get bronze? Half-way through the lap and here comes P1-P4 getting ready to lap me! Ahhh, I better get my 💩 together! Then, as if they don't even see me, dive-bomb and throw me off the track!

I hit the PS button, scroll over to the power, and put it to sleep, alllllmost spiked the controller (thank god I'm not 18 anymore!) I felt that deep-down rage inside me, rage from gaming that I've decided is silly for a grown man and a strong reason I try to not play multiplayer games anymore lol. I didn't play the game for a solid 5-days because I was still mad as hell! And that was during a time where I was obsessed with the game and was living with my parents while my home was being built, which meant built in babysitter and another TV for others to watch. But man, did that shake me to my core. I still haven't attempted that race again and TBH, I don't know if I ever will.
 
I feel annoyed today.

* Weather is broken, stupid.

* PP changes with most updates, rendering my tunes obsolete and that must be changed.

* The "prize" tickets.

* Extra menus as collecting simulator, tied to tickets.

* The grind w/ stupid AI (GTF out of my way).

* The constant promotion now tied to rewards (I don't care one lick for the trivia and their online events).

Completed 80% collection. Gonna shelf this game for a few months. It's lost the fun factor.

I was hoping for the majority of upgraded road cars (and quite a few stock ones) to have their sounds fixed, as most of them don't change pitch once you upgrade the redline. Sadly, it seems those cars have stayed the same.
 
My 6 star parts ticket for completing one of the new menu books of update 1.26 got me an ultra high rpm turbo.
For a Nissan Skyline pace car.
Again.
That annoys me.

Edit: ultra was missing

The new anniversary races that are available for a limited time only which are supposed to represent the GT World Series and the pinnacle of Gran Turismo competition, well guess what how Polyphony implemented them?

That's right! They are catch-up events where the leader starts half a lap ahead of you! The super-special limited time only events are yet more glorified time trials with brain-dead rolling roadblock AI! This is such a disgrace, it's jarring to look at these modern visuals on the PS5 while the gameplay has the same amount of depth as the OutRun arcade game back in the 1980s, how do Polyphony get away with this?

Image if Infinity Ward said they would release a special campaign marking Call Of Duty's anniversary and instead of proper missions it was just some deathmatch on already existing multiplayer maps with bots. PD are so washed up it's unreal...

The human comedy maggiore, nowadays (at least before 1.26) is easier due to the updates/changes in car and tyres physics. At the time it took me entire days of trying and trying trying. But this month I beated it with 5 diferent cars without too much trouble.
And my dailly ticket run has been there aswell ( I pick a gr3 car and do about 7-8 laps and see witch cars perform better, get closer or even take 1st)
I posted my strat on the related thread:

Try it. I'm sure you will win no problem.

I found Maggiore easier for another reason…

"Afterglow", "Dark Line", "Slow on the Uptake" and "Smooth Talking" from the GT5 menu soundtrack have been in GT7's soundtrack since launch, yet they literally never play in any menus. Meanwhile, there are plenty of songs that play frequently in-game that don't show up in the soundtrack, and have no name.

Also, don't tell me the artist of that Jingle Bells cover is "unknown". I can tell it's Satoshi Bando.
