Gran Turismo 6

My thoughts so far.

Hated the way when you first load up the game it treats you like a child, then forces you to buy a Honda Jazz. So far it's been very easy, seems to be easier than 5. The AI are so rubbish, they can be in a much quicker car yet I can just drive round the outside of them on the corners.

I'm hoping it will get harder as I level up, but not pull your hair out hard.

Graphics are very nice and I think the sound is pretty good, 7.1 on my system anyway.

Ladt night I gave PD the middle finver6, glitched and spend 180 million credits on cars and have 20 mill in the bank. Micro what?

I did this aswell, I dont like grinding and according to some the grinding is really bad. I bought all the 20 mill cars and each colour of the red bull car as a bank for later.
 
I've been playing this for maybe four hours in total now and was wondering if anyone elses traction control seems to automatically turn itself back on between races /car switches? Do you have to turn it off every time you get into a new car?

I'm loving the quick menu for changing cars! Very useful.

I wish the events said the PP limit at early as possible- instead of having to enter into the series and then enter into the actual race!!

There was always a troll prize car somewhere. In GT4 I remember there was that circuit around a town on a hillside and after 2 laps you won a Toyota SUV rally car thing worth 350,000 credits.

Although maybe not back in GT1 as I remember doing the Sunday Cup over and over to earn enough to buy a Castrol Supra :D

Yh I remember that one with the SUV rally car. Might have been a rav 4 or something, and I believe it was worth 250k :p

I unlocked a Cadillac cien (~700bhp) pretty early on and used that to keep winning the rally car to sell :D

You have to disable it for each car the first time you drive them.
After that it remembers the preferences for each.

Doesn't work anymore plus more likely to feel the ban hammer.
plus I don't want to ruin the game for myself by having too much money right from he get go!

1. it works

2. why a ban hammer? you're method is just as much of an exploit but nets considerably less cash per minute. If I recall tons glitched in GT5 ie Seb Vettel events and none got banned afaik. Only ones that got banned in GT5 were people that moded cars and used them to compete online
 
Thing is, PD really annoyed me with GT6. They created the best game engine/graphics engine I've ever played (on PS3 era tech).

Then they go do something stupid, like:

Introduce Microtransactions - only £30 for 7 million credits..

To make these seem more worthwhile they have reduced the prize payouts in GT6 over GT5 while keeping car prices roughly similar.

Not only that, they have massively reduced the number of prize cars you can win. They have also removed win bonus multipliers and log in bonus, as well as removing Gift tickets for say, 100 miles driven, or 'its your birthday, free car ticket for you'. Again forcing you to spend more currency on cars, or Microtransactions if you will.

They removed Shuffle racing, the kind of awesomeness that doesn't come around every day. My bet is because this forces you to buy more cars, not loan from GT so they can sell you more Microtrnsactions.

The game car roster has only increased by 20% or so max. yet they want us to start career mode again with no cars and limited money. Fine, but after I won all A spec I can import my carfolio from GT5 that took 3 years to collect right? Wrong, see above points RE microtransactions.

The entire set up of the game has been nerfed to force microtransactions to buy the decent cars.

Oh yea, and adding NOS doesn't increase your car PP? You can Inch up your wheels, but not make them an inch wider?

Then they did other stupid stuff, like remove proper free testing and leaderboards. How now can I accurately asses multiple cars on multiple configurations for speed PP tuning testing and compare them?


Look at what ive become im a PD fanboy through and through but GT6 is a blatant money grab whilst they work on GT7 for the PS4.

I hear you mate. Though I don't they have been as bad as Turn 10 have been with Forza 5. But I personally think the fault actually lies with the publisher, i.e Sony and Microsoft. I think if the developers had they way we will get games like we used to, packed to the rafters with content for free.
Developers tend to be like us, gamers who love games and want to share that passion for games with the rest of the world. Unfortunately the publishers are there to try and make as much profit as possible and the poor consumers usually gets the short straw.

it's not free. we paid full retail price for a game that is just a refresh of GT5 with several new tracks and a handful of new cars, they didn't even bother making standards into premiums. what have they been doing for 2 years? I have seen game mods deliver more content in shorter time w/ less staff. bang for buck we are getting the shaft compared to GT5.

this is just pushing me away from console gaming totally. I don't enjoy being taken for a ride
