Update Patch 1.08 is up

[Drahcir9]

Anyone else tried using the track creator to make a new 'glitch' track instead of just whining?

Didn't think so.

The race is on.

This is you all in a nutshell...
"Waaa waaa, booo hooo, I log online and see people racing in rooms I don't have to click on, join, be a part of, or even look at, but I do it to it anyway just to upset myslf because I take this game SOOOO seriously. I'm trying to be a professional online race-car-driver and these "cheaters" make my online achievements look so little and puny, I should be ranked ahead of them, have more cars than them, and everyone online should be as good as me because they keep bumping into me...waaa,waaa,waaa"

That's so good I'm tempted to put it in my sig. Bravo.👍

I'm disappointed they only fixed one bug, quite a few are still there.. dear PD

- A Spec career is ugly, we need something more to do, what about Manifacture events?? One of the best things in GT4, come on!
- AI still too weak in Career Mode
- No endurance save yet
- Only 1 setup per car is not enough, I remember in Prologue there were 3 slots
- What about PP events in career mode? Like in Prologue?
- What about giving us the chance to select cars to race against in arcade mode without gain any mo ney or xp, JUST FOR FUN? And a customizable championship? Come on these are just basic features and they have already been in SimBin's GTR2, out in 2006.

We are in 2011 now come on PD wake up a bit.

Not to spoil everyones excitement but you can still glitch ssr7 after 1.08. Personally I dont care if people glitch cause like myself I work 10 hours a day have a girlfriend and stuff I like to do at night so playing a few hours a night never got me very far in the game and I like to tune cars and spend the credits I earn so ill be glitchin it up so I can have cool cars too!

Don't think you can do it and earn money any more once you have updated to 1.8. We had a room going until 8 hours ago. We were all in the room before the patch hit Aus and stayed in till 1am. People kept coming in asking how we could still do the glitch; one guy got in won the race but got no credit for it. One guy got disconnected from the room and the update wouldn't let him play with out installing it and he then couldn't even get in the wall. I think we may have been the last 6 in the world to play the glitch as everyone who came in said we were the only room playing the ssr7 track now.
I don't think the glitch was too bad for the game in respect to turning people off playing it nor did it damage the reputation of PD in any way. In fact i think it’s the opposite, it has introduced more people who normally don't go online to the world of online racing through curiosity. I met a heap more guys i will now race with, some of whom had never played the online too much before but will be meeting up with us tonight to race some of our exotic cars we whould not have bought for months or years to come.

See all you online newbies for a reel race experience soon, welcome and enjoy.

Umm.... the patch didn;t fix it. I was on last night at 2AM after i got the patch and people were still glitching.

 

[boredgunner]

Aw no.

You would have had the patch but those doing it were in a room before the patch was deployed, as a small group of us were. No one who had updated and came into our room could do the glitch but us who hadn’t could.

People were or you were?

Maybe those people didn't get the patch yet...

I disagree. I just tried, it's gone.
Yay! 👍

 

[NissanSkylineN1]

It did not work for me, however it did for others.

As they may not have had/received the patch/update yet.

 

[Devedander]

Exactly...

"Hey engine restrictors don't work! I got one in my car and then saw other people still going fast!"

Remember not everyone gets the patch at the same time...

This must be the room I was in until 1'20am, afterwards we went to Laguna Seca? If so I had fun glitching was a great night with plenty of laughs.

I would have lost interest in gt5 within the next month or so knowing how far away lvl 40 was doing it legit, now I can see the lifespan of the game lasting a lot longer for myself.

read the other posts in here it may make things clear for you. We were the last room able to still do the glitch because Australia was last to get the update and we were in the room before the patch was deployed. NO ONE who came in after they had patched could do the glitch. It is all over red rover til the next big discovery.

 

[Supercheyenne]

Please reread, in the Online gaming they are.

GT4 had online... then GT5P... now GT5.
3rd title and 5 years.

Compare that to Forza.
2 titles and 4 years.

See? Comparatively they've been in the online game a LONG time.



I'm not disagreeing with you because I dislike your opinion (I could care less, thoughts I dislike are posted all day on GTP and I ignore them). I'm disagreeing with you because you're opinion is wrong and without thought.

 

[PAWEL17]

That's overstepping the mark in my book.

Yes i agree with you.

 

[PAWEL17]

You do a circle either way, one is just really big and takes along time. The other one you can chat with friends or use the computer while you hold the wheel/joystick to one side, or watch TV using the PIP feature on most TVs, or eat, or do damn near anything that can be done with 1 hand. With Indy though, you have to actually watch the "race" closely because you can't just turn left the whole time and come out with 1-3million credits.
As most people have said, grinding is grinding, so I'd much rather grind for 30 minutes and have 7million on SSR7 than grind for 30 minutes on Indy and have 300,000.

You make a point, but i still find the cheat boring, because atleast grinding(i.e, gt dream car championship) you needed some skill atleast, to control and X1 2010(my grind was not the indy race). And improve your driving.

 

[tonyt3rry]

its great when you update and you get a nice message saying "30mb needed as hdd has insuficent memory

 

[Limelight788]

Got the update, haven't tried to get through the glitch yet. Will do so after school tomorrow (Yay for Spring Break!)

All three Forza game had some form of online functions and I know that Forza 2 and 3 had online multiplayer. GT4, GT5P, and GT5 did have online, but GT4 came without it when released despite it being promised originally. Only in late 2006 with the beta trial that only lasted a few months did GT4 have online and even then, only 5,000 gamers got access to it. Forza has had online as part of the game longer then the Gran Turismo series. I haven't played any of them, but I have done enough research of the series that I can say you are incorrect in the length.

Another thing I want to say, why is a year gap (2005 Forza to 2006 Gran Turismo) such a large gap? Both started online gaming on last gen systems as Forza Motorsport is not a Xbox 360 title, so it does not take advantage of the Xbox 360's new online feature at the time.

1.08 has an hidden update in licenses: ghost car is updated every try, and not every time you quit from track and enter again
