    What could be a game to have fun driving several cars on famous tracks has been turned into a tedious task of playing several hours to get just one car, pushing the financial side to the detriment of fun.

    Awesome game, great graphics, pretty accurate physics. Great selection of cars, impressive circuits, basic but very interesting "story" mode (I do enjoy the "museum" felling).

    PLUS, latest patch shove down some pretty agressive microtransaction strategy, basically lowering the prize money you get from the races, to make you spend real money.

    Edit: The devs listened to the players. It appears they will be implementing some great changes in the next month, like double rewards, be able to sell cars, bigger wallet for in-game earns, and 1 mil to everybody affected by the server outage. That's why I'm changing the rating from zero to 7. If all of the updates truly are what they seem, I'll be back to give a 10.

    After I played through the “campaign” doing all licenses and missions I have a very good time with a slightly bad aftertaste of MTX. Now that I read news of nerfing sellouts at good grinding tracks I’ll have to tweak my rating down to 6. Thank u polyphony for showing me that ABBA was right.

    Ce jeu n’évolue plus depuis plus de 10 ans.
    Je viens de jouer plus de 40 heures depuis la sortie de ce jeu et le constat reste le même :
    GT7 est l’énième opus d’une ancienne gloire du passé qui peine à se réinventer et qui n’égale plus Forza motorsport depuis longtemps !
    - toujours pas de déformation de carrosserie - toujours pas de défaillance moteur en cas de dépassement intempestif du rupteur - les voitures restent scotchées à la route sur le sec, même en retirant les aides à la conduite - elle est où la soit disante IA miracle GT Sophy ? Aux abonnés absents (encore un mensonge de Sony), résultat on se farcit encore des IA débiles qui se suivent à la queue leuleu - sous la pluie c’est l’inverse on décroche beaucoup trop, c’est du n’importe quoi !
    - connexion obligatoire pour du solo, aujourd’hui MAJ 1.07 qui foire : serveurs down depuis ce matin 9h… il est 19h !!! Quel foutage de gueu*e. Ça ça n’arrive pas chez Forza et Microsoft !!!
    - courses nerfees pour qu’on achète des crédits avec son porte monnaie : Sony for the payeurs plus que jamais !

    Bref GT7 est à nouveau un jeu arcade pour casual gamers conducteurs du dimanche et collectionneurs de voitures majorettes !
    Pour les vrais amoureux des circuits et du gameplay : Go jouer à Forza motorsport 7 en attendant le 8 qui va encore enterrer GT7 sur metacritic !
    Graphiquement c’est juste un GT Sport PS4 légèrement amélioré !
    Même Grid legends fait mieux en terme d’IA avec ses nemesis !
    Ce jeu n’est plus que la pâle ombre de ce qu’il fut jadis : une référence. Aujourd’hui c’est l’objet de critiques et de railleries bien méritées !
    Je mets 8 /20 objectivement même s’il aurait plutôt mérité 7/20, juste par respect pour ce qu’il a été !

    Credit Rewards should be increased instead they lowered it to make us invest in microtransaction which is unacceptable

    I will give this game 10/10 when they raise the Credit Rewards . beside that everything is good

    Edit: the game is more balanced and they increased the Credit Rewards so i'm giving it 8/10

    The always online aspect is not as bad as other people say(when the servers are up).... but there are other problems with the game.

First of all earning credit in this game is incredibly slow, but the worst thing about is that you can spend real money to get credit and it is incredibly overpriced. 20euro for 2million credit. 2mill credit is next to nothing given the game is really pushing the car collecting on you. Plus most of the cars have about 200k plus credit worth of modifications to buy.

    Secondly the game offers nothing over GT Sport. The only truly new thing is the lazy and boring gt coffee mode (witch is most of the single player campain). It is just a bunch of 2-3 lap races for cars the you abandon for the rest of the campain. On top of this the AI is horrible. On some tracks they are really slow, on other tracks they are okay. But the worst of them all is that the AI strait out ignores you. Spin you around, squeeze you off the track. The other new thing is the street car tuning with the Performance Point system. It takes the power of the car, the weight and the suspensions characteristics to calculate a number. It does not translate well to actual performance when you drive the car.
    Every other modes ( circulate experience, license test ) are available in GT Sport. Given that there are only 3 new track there is not a lot have been added to GT7.

    Driving the cars at least is good. It is not a simulator, but more complex than a arcade racer. Perfect combination to race online. The driving is the only reason why I'm not rating it lower than 5/10. It is such a shame that the daily races are still update once a week.

    If you loved other GT games GT7 is a fine way to play on a modern system but it has nothing new. If you got bored with GT Sport or you looking for a simulator on the PS5 this isn't the game for you. If they increase credit earned for races, add more tracks and touch up the AI, than the game could be a 8/10.

    *edit: ok so for the last 24 hours the game was literately unplayable because the servers are down. **** this **** Originally rated it for 5/10 but a 0/10 is more appropriate.

    Update 4/7: A great update that has made this game much better. Payouts for online/custom races could still be improved further, but this is much better already. Looking forward to future updates!

    GT7 is a an amazing racing game with a terrible economy. The actual gameplay is very fun. Love driving cars on the track in this game. What is not fun is how incredibly bad race payouts for online and custom events are. Race for 25 minutes with tough AI starting at the back of a 20 car grid? 25k base credit reward for 1st. This was especially egregious with the pre-1.07 payouts where comparatively 3.5 minutes at Fisherman's Ranch would get you a 65k base credit reward for 1st. But instead of making custom races more in line with the races that did pay, they have decided to nerf the payouts for those races.

    These decisions seem designed to push microtransactions as hard as possible through FOMO with the limited time purchase invitations and used/legendary car dealerships. It was crappy before to feel like you are wasting your time playing anything other than Fisherman's Ranch to be able to afford these cars in a reasonable amount of time, but at least the earn-able hourly credits were decent. To cut these payouts in half and charge 20 real world earth dollars for 2m credits is a slap in the face to all fans.

    To be clear, microtransactions that are purely cosmetic are one thing. Even Free to Play games have gotten this right. Rocket League/Fortnite prints $$ for Epic, but I never feel that I am not competitive because I didn't spend any money on the game. But a full price AAA game pushing microtransactions for credits, which you need to be able to buy and tune cars that are competitive online, is simply not right. Please fix this game PD. I want to love it, but this microtransactions push is a shady business practice for a full price game.

    -Content locked behind spins, IT AMAZES ME that some content cannot be obtained unless you get it in a spin, which you can only do once every 24 hours and wouldn't give you the parts you're after anyway. Considering those are tuning parts, this makes the whole concept incredibly stupid

    -Anyone looking to buy the game should first visit r/granturismo in reddit and read the reviews

    -Very limited content even in terms of cars available, most older than 10 years old and you have to wait for them to show up in a used car dealer which only refreshes once in a long while...

    The driving aspects of the game are good, weather system is so nice. that's about it

    After the recent debacle I returned the game for a full refund.
    I will only re-purchase if the "on-line only" stipulation is removed, which in my opinion will NEVER happen.

    The first time I started the game, everything was there in the right place: memories of the old GT, fun, effort, all with technical improvements and fantastic graphics.
    Day after day things were starting to get worse, there was no way to play offline, split screen with a few preselected cars, 2nd driver in split screen couldn't reach the same speed as 1st driver with the same car.
    Dream cars have unreachable prices, but they were fine because I don't care to collect them all in the first 2 weeks, but now you have managed to let it be more difficult than ever with this latest update, forcing us to pay to win.
    I understand that the "real driving simulator" must simulate the fact that only the rich can afford to race in real cars, but we have bought your games so far to have the chance to dream even without money in our pocket, now you have ruined it , thanks Polyphony Digital.

    With the latest Update they also decreased the amounts of credits u earn per Race, which already wasnt a lot to begin with.

    No Problem, you can just buy 2 Million credits for 20€!!!

    Which means 100€ for 1 **** Car.

    The content has been stripped from the game pre-release and is being drip fed back into it under the guise of 'new' content. The scum developers also withheld the macrotransactions from review copies and re-activated them after release, this behaviour alone has burned any faith I had in PD. I will never buy another product from them again.

    Its a shame because the driving itself feel really good. Well, it did until they completely f**ked the FFB after update 1.15.

    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.
