Yep and these came at a very welcome moment! ☺️

This morning I woke up at 6 AM and was surprised to see the Sauber C9 still available at the LCD (I expected it would be sold out today). I grinded Trial Mountain Cup for a while and ended at 1.8 mill Cr., then logged off for work but was uncertain I could grind the remaining 1.2 mill this evening, since I will go out to enjoy the sun and drinks first.

And then the 1 mill Cr. dropped in my gift box. Just grinded the remaining 200K Cr. during my lunch break (I’m working from home 😎) and the C9 is already in my garage. Glad to get this car since I didn’t have any Gr.1 car yet and don’t want to buy one from Brand Central. In fact, I don’t buy anything from brand central apart from invitations and the Tomahawk S VGT (my Trial Mountain Cup grinding car).
Nice Car the C9... GZ
 
i'm downloading version 1.09. It is 18.905GB ???

has anyone else had the issue, where you do a 5 lap race, and lose connection during the race, and then it does not register that you won, so you have do do it all over again?

Yep, losing connection makes you lose all progress. I finished a (for me) very hard mission and had to do it again.......
 
  • Make it so cars can be sold.
  • Increase the quantity of Used and Legend cars on offer at any given time.
  • Increase rewards in the events in the latter half of the World Circuits by approximately 100% on average.
  • Include a total of eight new one-hour Endurance Race events to Missions. These will also have higher reward settings.

These were all the exact same suggestions I gave about a week or two ago that I said would increase the game ALOT. Lets hope they stay true to their word because all of these especially being able to sell cars would help the game be much more fun and make credits far easier to acquire.

I also like how they mentioned that they were gonna increase the quantity of Legend cars in particular because I felt that having 5 available at a time would take far too long for any particular car you may be interested in to show up, hopefully it's increased to atleast 10.

Nice dude! I'm happy for you. Last week I won 1 million credits on a 4 star roulette ticket, and decided to check the legendary dealership and the car I was possibly most excited to buy happened to be there, the Porsche 911 GT1 road car!!

I would've Grinded to get it but thanks to the bonus I didn't have to. Great feeling!

Now I'm gonna get that feeling again by logging in and buying the Lambo VGT
 
Which stats specifically? First I’ve heard of this.
You've missed all the threads of new people* posting their game screens showing zero Collector Level and start cash with a garage full of cars?

*Apparently directed here by PlayStation Support...

I’ve only seen a few people mentioning that their main menu had gone back to an early game state despite having made progress previously. That’s it, but I don’t read every single thread. Any reports on player profile stats being affected?
 
Probably never will, nobody asks to fix this problem, I try, but I think it’s all useless, we should be many more.
I am certain that if devs from this forum write one article about this it would get noticed by PD...one can hope...

I was able to get the C9 the day it was available. I detuned it to 800PP and murdered all the 800PP races with it. its a fantastic car, you will not be disappointed.
 
SOPHY is ready to make you regret those words! :lol::lol::lol:
I watched it racing against top drivers, and I'm not sure people are going to love it. There's a fundamental problem with it not understanding the rules of racing that doesn't exist in most other types of game. For example, a lot of work has been put into DOTA2 AI, and I'm not aware there are any "sportsmanship" issues in that game, i.e. I think probably you can do anything the game lets you do. Driving games may well be unique in having rules that you are supposed to follow that the game doesn't enforce, which makes it tough to apply machine learning. Also, some of Sophy's techniques such as deliberately sliding the car on corner entry from a wide entry point with reduced grip will be a bit frustrating to race against, as it may be impossible for humans to replicate, given the latency in their internal feedback loop for applying corrections.

I'm not saying it can't be done, but IMO what I saw in those races wouldn't be 100% appropriate for a full roll-out into the game. There is a machine learning AI for Rocket League now, called Necto, that is pretty amazing. Its standard of play can't challenge top players yet, it's around top 10% standard, but the style of its play is fantastic for players around that standard to play with and against. It's quite mild-mannered, and doesn't use aggressive techniques that the game permits, such as demoing players, I'd guess that might have been achieved as a deliberate thing through the choice of metrics for reinforcement. I'd say Sophy needs a similar sort of attention to the style of how it drives and competes for places, rather than purely focusing on outright pace.

PD have already said that the real challenge of Sophy isn't getting it to be as quick as the fastest drivers, its about dialling it back so that it can be used with all standards of players and that's their aim going forward.

Aah I have been using the GT-R GT500 I won from a lottery ticket for that, which is equally hostile to those 800PP races I think. 😅 But good to know I got a great Gr.1 car in my garage now then, thanks! 👍

I hope all the naysayers and mince meat grinders cool off as we enjoy the continuous updates from PD and Sony to this epic franchise of a game, now being GT7.

Besides, this game is over two years early, we should count that as a true blessing.

I am highly appreciative of what is to come to this game. Long live Kaz & PD & GTP & members

Exactly! I agree with everything you said 110% Happy gaming.;)

They are not bugged. They were just altered, changed. I prefer the old ones personally, but the new ones are alright.
I think they should make it an option, to restore the full effects
 
If you have not seen yet , Payouts for the last half of menu book races will be doubled. So some races will be back to their original state and some will pay massive now ( the few that werr unchanged ) plus they said C.E. will pay huge payouts for gold .
 
The money is nice but once you blow it the problems are still going to be there.

At least there’s context as to why they made the earnings adjustments. Those races weren’t supposed to be the top-of-the-line, endgame events that pay out large amounts. So I’m cool with that.

BUT PD really should have mentioned that earlier, or not touched the economy at all and saved the tweaks for the update that adds more events. Because we know that more well-paying events are coming but now we’re stuck with the crappy economy still for another little while.

We know the game is going to be fixed now, which is nice, but in the meantime it’s still broken and I don’t really want to play it too much.

Yeah I saw that after I posted. It'll be interesting to see how this all works out in the coming weeks.
 
This is the oldest ploy in the Pimp handbook. Beat your trick (woman) with a coat hanger then help her tend to her wounds and run her a bath and get her something to eat. She’ll be grateful because you helped her, ignoring that your the one who beat her with a coat hanger.

They beat us and now they're giving us a million credits and singing sweet nothings in our ears and you guys are eating it up. If they didn't beat us in the first place...

This is textbook signs of an abusive relationship and gaslighting.

So everyone who already did them is SOL. Nice. I've finished the menus, the individual track races, the missions, and the licenses. The **** else is there to do?

Even though we understand what you're trying to say, this is a terrible analogy that has no place here.

I'm not trying to be combative because I know you didn't mean anything negative. But, I'm a man with 3 daughters so it's a little too close to home
