    Update 1.07 is a disgrace. Cutting races rewards by half and asking 40$ to buy a car with credit it's ridiculous especually when you pay 60$ for the game.... Shameless and greedy developer.

    I got this game and was looking forward to playing it. Unfortunately I don't have a steering wheel set up so you are a disadvantage with a controller and if you want to gold all the missions and tests without being some sort of god at the game you ain't doing it.

Then you just have to play the same maps a million times to get credits so have fun with that. The racing is pretty good and fun but you will probably be spending most your time getting pissed off at the mission and licensing tests to actually enjoy that side of it. You should not have to be a f1 level type driver to get gold for a licsence bit of a joke. The game is not really good for new comers to this sort of game tbh. Expand

    It is such a pity, the gameplay is fantastic (cafe mode is pretty mediocre), but the predatory pushing of micro-transactions weeks after release is disgusting, especially for a full price game.

Every patch created new and even more severe bugs. Cannot imagine the latest update made the game unplayable for more than 1 day and some poor players even lost their save and progress. In the first place, always online for single player is unnecessary and counterproductive.

    GT7 is a AAA game which we paid a lot of money. I did not sign up for not a micro-transaction game. We need to stop the trend of game studios scamming players and sucking our blood with those micro-transactions!

    Super scummy move. Microtransactions were not available when most people reviewed the game prior to release. With the latest update they have decreased payouts to try to push people into buying credits. You can't sell the cars that you earn or buy. Game can only be played online. They have ruined one of the greatest racing series of all time.

Shame on the board for encouraging microtransactions and whoever decided 'always-online' is a good idea. I hope they fix this game, until then I'll be playing Forza.

    I have been playing over 30 hrs and only collected 3mil cred. barely enough to buy few cars and upgrade. When each race only pays out 20-30k, 50-70k on the championship, you starts to wonder.

    One of the daily race was to race with 60s hatchbacks, and while everyone was driving the Mini, I've decided to ramp up the 500 and spend 90k upgrading. oh boy how I was wrong, it's **** and slow as well and Minis just beat me. Was it worth it, def not, but that's the part of the fun. HOWEVER, to gain back 90k I had to go other races like 4-5 times.

    The game does not give you room for wasting credits, as in make some stupid upgrade decision,s buy some ****ty old car and bring to race etc. You follow the pack and grind more or you have to grind again AI ****ty drivers that literally rams you and throws you off course. (yeah this is the WORST AI drivers I've ever seen)

    and always online is ok, but multi-players should be open, gosh the network check is stupidly slow and aggressive. (takes over few min to give up the check and finally let me in to the game when the back end was down) bloody hell, when login/check times out (in 30sec or so) just move on, why wait on the screen for longer? who designed this network client?

    Just too many flaws (not because of MTX) but systematically. 2/10 game for me.

    $90 cover charge to access online-only single player with excessive grind and limited purchase windows to push people toward massive macrotransactions.

    I consider GT4 to be the pinnacle of the series. Content in every game since should have at least the same content on release as GT4. I am not talking about the car count. The events available to race should be comparable. Low payout races that drive players toward an extremely overpriced MTX system that should not be in the game at all. SMH...GT is dead.

    From a game of enjoyment turns into a game of pay for fun. You are unable to enjoy the game to be a car collector, you are only able to paying Sony in order to get enough money to try out these legacy dream cars. Do not buy the game unless you have deep pockets in the real world and you are bored from using your money on your actual car

    They say they want to replicate the real world exclusivity and prices of rare and exotic vehicles within Gran Turismo 7. Their attempts at mimicking the real world sadly end there. You’ll always start last on the grid, even when the race is only a couple of laps and you can’t sell any vehicles whatsoever.

    Paying customers of Gran Turismo 7 briefly had the opportunity to earn approximately 1.8 million credits per hours by grinding a particular race. 1.8 million credits is approximately £15 of purchased in game credits. With some vehicles costing as much as 20 million credits, it’s clear that the only way of obtaining them is by exploiting the paying customers time or personal finances.
    This already dire situation was made ADMITTEDLY worse by its creators when they slashed the prize money of the grind race by HALF. This means that the more expensive cars require either £150+ of additional purchases (per car) on top of the game you already paid £70 for.. or it means you have race on track for 20+ hours *winning every race, every time without a collision.*

    The rotten cherry on top of the traumatising GT7 experience is a reminder of how much focus was put into customer enjoyment as opposed to customer exploitation. The cherry; this single player career-mode oriented game can ONLY BE PLAYED ONLINE. They didn’t even code the game to facilitate an offline mode. Do you get it? They either A) didn’t notice the blunder because they were focused on the side of things that exploits the player, or B) didn’t change it because it didn’t effect their exploitation model. There’s been 3 updates to tend to their exploitation - none for the gaming experience.
    Has that sunk in? Don’t worry if it hasn’t sunk in yet. The next time the servers are down and you can’t access ‘your’ content, you’ll have days to contemplate why you need to be online to play a single player game. This will lead to the eventual awareness that every time the servers return from a weekend off, the all essential prize money will have been reduced once more and you feel slightly less like a human being.

    Gameplay; the cars handle great. They don’t crash and they jump like balloons in a gale. They all sound ‘tinny’. Realistic? No. I wish I could say otherwise but, No.

    Career options; you CANNOT buy new alternative engines; you can only win them after winning a prize ticket (the odds are so low that you can basically write off engine changes). Like seriously - forget it, you won’t be dropping an RB26 in an old S13 anytime soon. You can also spends millions upon millions on concept cars that aren’t eligible for any events which makes them *literally* useless. Literally.

    Oh yeah.. and the spokesman for GT7 doesn’t address any of its customers issues. Because they only want MMOONNEEYY

    Overall; this is not a game. It’s a carefully thought out business plan which was reviewed by review companies prior to GT7 revealing their intended paywall which is over 700% more expensive than their previous customer exploitation. The whole idea here is to get every customer to spend a minimum of $/£100+ with the initial purchase and in game purchases. While the creators refine and tweak their exploitation model, they’re aiming to make no less than 5 billion dollars out of us.. er.. I mean GT7

    I’m fascinated by what is happening. Fascinated by the younger audience who think micro transactions are an acceptable requirement on top of something they have already purchased. Is masochism. These people are the future.. is this how they think the world works? By misleading people into binding agreements that they can’t escape unless they abandon?.
    GT7 sums up life and community right now. It’s all about money and ignorance. Now i’m gonna go and play Dirt and appreciate the sentiment of its creators.

    The worst entry in the series yet.

    Let's start with the gameplay, The racing itself is obviously still fine, but let's be honest, there wasn't much to do here either. It's basically still the same as GT Sport. So let's keep "they didn't mess that up" as a positive for the game. What is a lot worse is the progression. The money flows a lot slower than in any GT game and you are forced
    The worst entry in the series yet.

    Let's start with the gameplay, The racing itself is obviously still fine, but let's be honest, there wasn't much to do here either. It's basically still the same as GT Sport. So let's keep "they didn't mess that up" as a positive for the game.

    What is a lot worse is the progression. The money flows a lot slower than in any GT game and you are forced to visit the annoying café after every little step of progress you make in the game, to confirm it there, otherwise, nothing will be unlocked, no matter how much you win. It's just an endless drag and you get nowhere.

    Now, if you're like me and don't care much for the career and just want to do some races, why not use the arcade mode? Well, that's because it's gone. Not completely, but they made it pretty much useless. You can't just start the arcade mode (no, the music rally mode doesn't count, I want a real arcade mode, like, you know, GT always had?) and do some races. You have to go to the track in the world map and pick "arcade race" there. Of course, you only can pick tracks you already unlocked in career.

    So, instead of being able to chose every track and every car (almost IIRC, I think some cars were not available in the old arcade modes), you are limited to use what you unlocked in the career.

    Let's go back to the progression "why has it gotten so slow?" you might ask. The easy answer is: Microtransactions, Sony wants to sell you these, and if earning money in the game is too easy, no one will buy them. And it seems like, really no one bought them, because Sony released an update now. "Oh, did they lower the prices?" you might ask. Sorry, but no, the microtransactions - actually, "micro" isn't the right term any more, in case of GT7 it's macrotransactions - did not get cheaper, but to make players buy them, Sony reduced the money you can earn in the game with their latest update.

    The whole game is just a money making scheme for Sony. They don't care about the players, they care about the money. They even dropped the free update option, if you're upgrading from PS4 to PS5.

    So, if you're on PS5 and want to play the PS5 version there, it's not only the most expensive game in the series, but it also forces you pay even more money, if you don't want to spend an absolutely unreasonable time grinding for in game money.

    Oh, and I didn't even get into the always online stuff. If your internet isn't available, or Sony's servers are down (which is probably more likely, considering the quality of Sony online services), you can not play the game, except for the useless music rally mode. This is absolutely insane. This means, that the game will be a dead weight, once Sony decides to stop supporting it in a few years.

    At this moment, GT is dead.

    I purchased a friend's PS4 in order to play GT7 as soon as possible. I wasn't blown away by the different things they've added like the cafe menu books and lack of different racing series. The server was down for more than 24-hours within the first few weeks for a game that I paid almost 24-hours and now the reward credits are nerfed. The reward tickets are weighted toward the lower level prizes and microtransactions are pushed in that cars are outrageously expensive and reward credits are low.

    Anyone that knows me, knows that I'm a huge GT fanboy. Not so anymore.

    Sony/Polyphony, let us say that you had a kid that loved racing games and that you made racing games. They come to you saying they need to use more of their own money to get a car they want and you are telling them that it's too bad and they should pay the money.

However, after Polyphony Digital released the 1.08 patch over this weekend, I feel like most of my interest in this game has faded away.

    Now, the servers being down and the game not really being playable offline is something I can live with. It’s a flaw for sure, but not a big one if you ask me. The changes with the economy and the credit pay-outs are what feels like a real slap in the face to me. For the total 18 race events, only 2 received a credit-buff. The rest have been nerfed so much that the general time it takes to make credits in this game has been doubled, at least…

    It’s painfully obvious that this has been done in an attempt to make it even harder for players to collect cars and push them towards the microtransactions. It’s such a shame that it all developed into this. The 1.08 patch truly cripples the entire game and the experience that it offers, or should I say “offered”. I find it funny that this happens now, two weeks after the launch when all of the official reviews are already out.

Für was und warum.

Habe nach fast 14 Tagen keine Lust mehr auf das Spiel und noch keine 2 Stunden Spielzeit. Habe auch nicht das Gefühl was zu verpassen. Kann man darauf verzichten. Eine Riesen Hype um nichts.

    La ou les choses se compliqué c'est quand on se décide de se faire un garage garnis de nos véhicule préféré. Pour s'offrir les quelques 400 véhicules (- la petite centaine offerte avec les différentes activités du mode solo), il ne faudra "que" quelques centaines voir milliers d'heures de jeu (pour 1 demi million/heure avec une très bonne optimisation du temps + bonus "course parfaite" ou alors "que" 2 000€ (a 20€ pour 2M Cr) pour se les offrir via micro transaction. A savoir un peut moins de 200M Cr pour s'offrir tous les véhicules. A condition aussi d'avoir l'argent nécessaire lorsqu'elles apparaissent dans le garage occasion ou qu'on obtiennent l'invitation (à durée limitée afin encore une fois de forcer la main).

    Alors oui ce jeu perdurera dans le temps et donc il faut trouver un juste equilibre pour eviter de tout obtenir en 2 minute. Mais il y a une difference plutot notable entre tout obtenir en 2 minutes et 2 ans (ou alors avec un petit coup de pouce avec la CB)... Mais encore faut il que des joueurs soit encore sur ce jeu au vue de l'évolution qui est visiblement souhaité pour ce dernier.

    Gran Turismo 7 est un très bon jeu qui ne demande qua s'étoffer mais malheureusement pourrait sombrer à cause de son modèle économique qui est, en restant polis, fortement discutable.

    Gran Turismo 7 is a love letter to motorsport history and an impeccable technical showcase. The franchise's traditional formula gets good improvements, but it's still extremely true to its roots. One of the best racing series ever shines spectacularly on the PS5.
