Anyone know the differences?

Not sure about online but it seems the experience points have been increased somewhat dramatically. One of the B-Spec races I had my Bobs doing went from ~1800 points to over 5000.

Grinding Indy is going to be a little more worthwhile now. 9800 (or whatever it was) to over 32000 points.
 
I tested one of my old online replays, and yes you can switch between cars instantly now, and change views, from any car! But no cockpit view for the other cars

OP, copy this and put it in the 1st message of this thread...

EDIT: Nevermind, someone already posted this just above.
 
Ok maybe i misunderstood.I thought in remote race i could choose any B-Spec race and make my Bob do it.There are three different races with varying lengths and i can only race against other peoples Bob's.Only one person has put any of his Bob's online so far.Is this correct that i can only race other people's Bob's or am i doing something wrong?
 
The updates seem all good, but one thing shocked me:

[Other Changes]
- The lap times for the [X Challenge] in [Special Events] have been adjusted.

WTF!!! Can anyone confirm this and tell me the old vs. the new times? Did they make it harder or easier, and by how much?!?!?!

I have only gotten bronze at nurburgring, gold at monza and silver at suzuka but I'm wondering what happens now? I can imagine some people struggling days to get gold will be disappointed if they made it easier..
 
anyone else notice that their bob likes to ram into cars more than before the last update. provides for some entertainment at least
 
I am super happy with this update.

I couldn't tell you what excites me most (likely the adjustable gearbox setup or the XP increase), but it's all the little things together that add just more polish and fun to this already incredible game!

Thanks PD!
 
After looking at this update I see no reason to return to GT5. Unfortunately the two main issues I have with GT5 have not been resolved and in this day and age thats pathetic.

My two main issues with GT5 are:

1. Still cannot save during endurance races. Expecting gamers to leave their PS3 consoles on for days is just ridiculous.

2. Still no leaderboards. The lack of leaderboards when GT5 launched was a travesty and the fact its now mid Feb and still no leaderboards is just incredible.
