Update 1.03 (Released - January 14th)

[baldgye]

To be honest I think they were planning to release much less updates for gt6 compared to gt5, but the fact that the game has not sold nearly as much may mean they will want to get gt6 in tip top shape so that spirits are heightened again for gt7

I think that's nonsense. GT6 is meant to get as much money as possible from the ps3 market base before moving onto the ps4. Gt6's updates have been on track (bar the vettel events) so it seems like it's been totally planned as the game had to be finished quickly.
If there is anything we can/should be able to agree on it's that gt6 was rushed to the door...

When they wrap up the content updates for the Senna stuff that's when they will maybe put out an updated boxed version and bundle ps3's with it and come next year gt7 will be out or close too because the ps4 will have an install base big enough to support it.

With that said I really think that GT6 is being used to essentially test there capacity to doing running updates and what that costs in time and money and if it's worth while. From what I can gather gt4 didn't sell aswell as gt3 (might be totally wrong), so I'm guessing that they knew gt6 wouldn't sell aswell as gt5 so they could to some extent get away with pushing this out quickly and then using it to test there pipe line for updates so the next GT game could be viewed more as an eveolving platform than a finished game they bold dlc onto

I suspect the Red Bull Challenge continuation was held back from being an initial ninja-update release into becoming a part of the monthly patch as Detroit Auto Show VGT reveals go.

And to be honest here, GT6 is a game of patches, updates, and the like. So if there is something that needs to be fixed, please wait. It can't come instantly like sounds (God I hate saying that now when criticizing because I couldn't care about it myself in my opinion), the custom wheels bug, anything that bothered you to whinge online. It's sort of like an online MMO with this sort of post-release model.

Well 2 hours from now could be the update release. That is if it is going to be released on the 7TH. It will fit their update schedule of 3AM(hopefully) keep the SEC reign in tact and win another BCS title in a few hours.

 

[TokoTurismo]

No. That's not what I said.

I replied to one that said, they'd probably never add some of the things they've promised. If they haven't released the course maker for GT6 by the time GT7 is released, I will call it false advertising.

I thought I was pretty clear before, but if I wasn't. Sorry. English is my second language.

Ohhh, I see. Sorry, haha.

GTA V massive gameplay (GTA Online is supposed to be a seperate venture)
And........

And...? Elaborate why you think it's complete? Errr... actually...

This is now off-topic. Let's stay to the thread here so this doesn't turn into another craptastic GT6 thread.

 

[ProjectWHaT]

I'm assuming maybe the Toyota VGT will come with this update.

 

[WWE907]

I wonder what the risk of getting kicked from quick matches will be like (12 year olds be like: "HeY u FEGIT ur drivien a awDi r18 thiz rum iz 1ly 4 jdm driftin ima kik u cuz ur a n00b").

 

[Flaren89]

Well, at this point still no 1.03 and still no Red Bull Standard + Fan update... I'm start thinking they are trying to fix the numerous bugs created with the 1.02 and release everything in another one big update...

I would not be surprised if the update 1.03 was released only in 13th january because the corvette c7r and c7 z06 will be unveiled in this day at the Detroit Motor Show

It would make my year if we got the C7R

 

[Nomadpt1]

mine too and some other gt1 cars

 

[emula]

i hope they correct the totally busted lighting, especially in the cockpit view

Yeah, I used the R18 for the Nurb 24mins and the road was flat black and the curbs didn't come into view until the last minute. I was really happy for dawn to break in that race!!! The trees were very well illuminated though

The green corner has got a Mercedes-Benz A45 AMG. Your move, PD.

Its sad that T10 is charging people extra for cars that were already in Forza 4. Most of those cars were in FM4, 6 of them I think possibly 7

As a Forza fanboy this makes me so angry. Most of the cars were already in F3 and/or F4, and now they cut it out and sell it again. I am glad that I am not supporting this ******** anymore.

That is one of the reasons I didn't get FM5 and XBone. I have FM4 and I think it is a great game, we were even told that the cars in FM4 were nex-gen ready. So, when I found out how many were left out of FM5 only to be released as DLC I refused to purchase the game.

Such a [game publisher] behaviour can breack necks. Mostly your own.

*Sighs* See what I mean? It has like, what, 3 new cars and 7 cars from previous Forzas. The thing is I remember the Reventon being in Autovista in FM4, meaning it was already, and yet T10 decided to resell it for money... Dan said he's not holding any cars back for DLC, so why is the Reventon in there then?

 

[HBR-Roadhog]

The Impala was new to Forza 4 if memory serves, surely it was in Auto Vista as well? The Reventon was in Forza 3 and 4

What "battle"? As always in previous Forza games, you will be able to buy 6 DLC packs valued as almost another game that will give you 60 cherry-picked cars that were deliberately removed from the disc version in order to monetize on DLC content.

Welcome to 2009, what damn wars are you talkin about?

What battle? it's a completely different game, not even on the same console.

Anyways, we should get back on-topic.

Really?

 

[diegorborges]

Really?

Yes, really... what Turn 10 does with their DLC strategy is ridiculous.

Plus, no track DLC for FM... I hope they do something for the FM5 folks, because the current tracklist is depressing. (14 tracks, no nurburgring, no time/weather change...)

But, let's get back on topic.

Yeah, the Impala was actually new in FM4. I think it was in the Muscle car DLC, but not in Autovista. Your right on the Reventon, and it was given parts to be opened for Autovista.

Because this:

Anyways, we should get back on-topic.

Yep. That's the reason. Anyway I won't go off-topic anymore.

7 cars out of 10 are old and I had all of them in Fm4 (some of them were already dlc).

Why would I pay 2 times for the same dlc?


T10 fooled me once, they will not fool me a second time. I will not buy an xbone for that.
