    Nerfearon excesivamente el sistema de recompensas con la update 1.08. Literalmente redujeron las recompensas a la mitad. recompensas de 35k para comprar un coche de 18 millones. sacad cuentas, cuanto tenemos que jugar para conseguirlo.
    Conexión permanente hasta para el modo offline. Si los servidores de GT caen, tienes un posavasos de 99€ (edición coleccionista). Lamentable las politicas

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Bought and played Gran Turismo Sport for maybe an two hours. I was so disappointed still regret spending money. Ok that was a mistake and Polyphony learned from mistakes they made. I said to myself. I’m sure GT7 will be the best game ever. But NO! You became so greedy even the price of the game 69.99$ is not enough for you and you have to use micro transaction in f..king racing game. You even lowered rewords with patch from winning just to make sure there is no way we can play game without spending real world money. Can you guess why we can’t sell cars? And please don’t start with that car collection bulls..it. Hm? But of course we can’t just buy the car we want without spending real money. Fool me once… and i promise there will not be the third time. Shame on you PolyPony, shame on you…. Expand

    Game quality is great, great level of detail, but once you’ve completed the licenses, missions and menu books there is no content… credit progression for early game is fine, late game it’s incredibly slow, there are a lot of legendary cars available from 3mil credits upwards to 18.5m credits.

Once you get some of those top tier race cars you can’t even use them in championships or even created races…

    And ofcourse there are a lot of FOMO techniques to try and make you spend money on micro transactions, which in them selfs are crazy 2mil for 20 euros… In short to buy the mclaren F1 car you’d need to pay 189$ to buy it or race for 32hours straight…

    The basis is there, just add more races and more ways to earn credits, we love a grind, but this is just crazy and seems a pointless attempt at selling MTX…

    Added to that, when the game was offline for 32 hrs, only the arcade races and the music rally where playable… nothing single player related campaign could be played. Due to the always online feature.. and besides a “We’re sorry” no clear explanation, updates or compensation for the downtime.


    Its sad to see, I love the series and the early grind, but once the single player menu is done, the game feels empty… give us more races, Bspec and more ways to earn credits.

    And ofc, let us sell cars or tuning items for cars we don’t own, or don’t wanna own in the near future.

    This is a great looking game. It has the potential to be a great racing title with future DLC, BUT the developers have decided to total destroy this game with abysmal race payouts! and forcing players to use greed driven microtransactions! This will be the demise of this title. I really had high expectations and really looked forward to the release of GT7, but we have all been let down.

    The gameplay, mechanics, graphics, physics are top tier. Really going back to the basics.

    However the microtransactions/monetization are ridiculous. Not to mention the game requires you to always be online even when playing alone.

    So much potential here wasted, and Kazunori Yamauchi's reasoning behind the monetization is silly. Trying to tie a game car to real life value?

    I can't recommend this game to anyone until they address the horrendous monetization.

    Updated June 4, 2022. They updated the game to make it even more difficult to get cars. Lowered score again.

    What an absolute insult to GT fans everywhere this game has become. This could have been a generation defining revisit to GT but what's become of it is a moneygrubbing microtransaction filled cesspool of an economy with a big upfront price tag to match.

    Graphics and gameplay are good, but the creators of the game want you to have no life and spend hours and hours to gain minimal credits.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Disappointed. The physics and weather looks great. But playability is hurt by the hardness of getting credits to clear objectives. Online saves also make impossible for restarting from scratch with Cr 1,000,000 from the anniversary version - lame. Micro transactions are micro scams. Avoid them! In retrospect, GTS is a better game as a whole - it only lacks the updated physics, weather and so. Maybe it is not PD's intention to milk users by making progress ridiculously slow, but every one knows how the saying goes. No Bopped races so far, too boot. Lame, lame, lame. Expand

They keep telling me that that that's to convey the real life rarity of certain cars and how even if you had money you cant buy them, but in this game a mckaren f1 would cost a 180$ in micro-transactions!! what kind of teality are they talking about, This game is nothing more than the battlefront 2 of racing games.

    Lackluster (and short) "career" mode that feels more like a tutorial that overstayed its welcome.
    Online play must be unlocked in said "career" mode. (You need to make it to book 9 in the GT Cafe I believe before you can actually race other people)
    Single player cannot be accessed unless you are online.
    A heavily weighted roulette reward system akin to what you'd find in more predatory F2P titles.
    Certain cars and upgrades locked behind said roulette reward system.
    Woefully low payouts for races in a game that prioritizes car collection.
    Used Car lot is very slow to refresh cars.
    Used Car lot has "limited supply" of fan favorite vehicles.
    The inability to sell vehicles, something the current Playstation Store page for the game even seems to suggest you can do.
    Every time you earn credits, reminders that you can buy credits in the PSN store.
    Said credits in the PSN store being rather pricey for those trying to buy the more expensive cars.
    Car prices higher than in previous GT titles.
    High end fan favorite cars that could be bought with in-game credits in previous titles now locked behind a limited time offer "Invitation" system that requires you to buy it now or risk never getting another chance to buy it again.

    ... The list goes on. My recommendation, avoid this game. At the very least, hold off and hope some major changes come to the game that fixes a lot of the issues. Maybe by then, it'll hopefully be cheaper than $70 USD...

    Then there's the gameplay which tbh can be fun in certain races but I have had so many races where I'm quite frankly bored, the Endurance and nascar being some of the worst offenders. Also the campaign can frequently leave you frustrated as npc's on every difficulty can spin you out in a moments notice without any warning or penalty attached to it. Then last but not least there's the pesky microtransactions that quite frankly breaks the game as they are really hard to avoid especially after the latest patch which nerfs the prize money and ups the prices of some cars. This in my opinion was the last straw for me which makes me want to give it up. How did poliphony not realise this would annoy players and push them away from ever picking it up again. Beats me. Do yourself a favour and buy from a developer that actually cares about their playerbase.

    Clearly their goal is to do everything they can to make you buy credits with real money. Even going as far as nerfing the race payouts to make it even harder to earn credits. Some cars can only be purchased with an invitation, and that invitation expires!! You'd have to run 60-70 races to earn enough to pay for that car OR pay $30 to $40 real money to buy that one car.

    That's absurd

    Gran Turismo 7 has a lot of good and plenty of great. The use of DualSense and the particularly well-tuned loading is exemplary, and there's a huge amount of work behind the game, with a lot of detail that's almost hard to believe at times. [Issue#318]

    Gran Turismo 7 brings to the tracks every single thing fans always wanted: the GT Mode everyone loves, plenty of customization options, car loads, classic scenarios and one of the best DualSense and 3D Audio experiences the PS5 has to offer. This is the best Gran Turismo experience we have ever seen in a long time.

    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.
