    Hugely disappointing. It's too similar to Gran Turismo Sport, the events are poor and the in game economics are a disgrace (although better after 1.09). Also the offline gameplay is a complete joke.

    Grindfest. Micro-transaction cash grab. Lacklustre Daily Races with little variety. Boring Career mode. Tiny amount of new tracks. Gacha rewards where 90% of the time you will get a rubbish award.

    Cars and handling are highlights.

    There's an amazing game, hidden beneath-Micro. transactions. Always. Online. It's 2022. Hi, Sony?! C'mon!! This is a flagship game and feels like it's not getting the right attention in design. The micro economy within the game feels off, broken, and needs addressing! The single player campaign should be playable offline!

    Impossible de jouer le mode solo sans être connecté, ce qui pose probleme lors des phases de maintenance en ce moment et surement encore plus dans le futur. Des maj qui baissent les gains de crédit et qui va pousser à utiliser les MT.

    This game embodies everything wrong with modern gaming. Fake trailers, micro transactions introduced after launch. A product that looks and feels unfinished. An absolute disgrace.

    The "campaign" doesn't give you even 25% of cars available, and not even one really expensive car just for finishing it (even when there are hundreds more).
    Then races pay too little, cars are way expensive and even enough credits to to fully mod a car can take a lot of races.
    All of this to influence you to buy MTX to save time. Truly a shame, too much greed

    Behind the wheel, this game has few peers. Everything else feels like it was lifted straight from a 2000s-era title designed in a back-alley pachinko parlor by a jaded marketing executive.

They yell us "we want you to race many races at different race tracks and not farm a single race a 1000 times." But what they have done is instead of increasing the rewards they have taken away the only races that are rewarding. Furthermore the top racing disciplines are not represented in the race offerings.

    I knew about the potential online issues going in but assumed servers would be stable. They weren't.

    The microtransactions were an annoyance before but lowering event rewards so soon after launch, to push people to pay more is underhanded.

Imagine a fake "RNG" thingy with five prices. 99,5% chance you get the worst price which means a little puddle of money (2.000 Credits) and 0,5% for a car part for a car you don't own, of course.

    I'm not sure what past issues with microtransactions were, but gaining credits is not hard. This is not forza and you will not be starting with a Lamborghini. This is by far the best racing game in years. The only issue I have is that every career race so far has been rolling starts, other than that, it's perfection.

How exactly does that promote rarity if someone can open their wallet and get the rare item instantly?

    On top of that the game is clearly designed with F2P mechanics in mind. Daily Roulettes are terrible and hardly ever reward a decent prize. Used car shop fills slowly with cars you need to buy before they disappear for an unknown amount of time. The legend shop just now refilled with a car that costs 18,500,000 credits!! It'll take over 30 hours of grinding the same race over and over to buy it! Or pay $180ish to get it instantly :)

    Limited time invitations, that you only seem to get via daily roulettes, to buy cars with 1,000,000-5,000,000 credits further incentives the player to purchase credits with real world dollars. Otherwise you'll miss out on buying the car and you won't know when you'll get another invitation.

    On top of the economy problems, there's just a general lack of content for the game. 39 menu books took a laughably short amount of time to get through and missing endurance races, grid starts, tracks, event modes, and more really really shows.

    Tl;dr, economy for this game is completely geared to push players to buy credits with real world dollars. Lack of post menu completion content is barebones and laughable.

    The game is designed like a cash grab phone game with horribly slow progression. They weren't bilking the players for enough money so they slashed the race rewards to try and force players to spend more.

I played it in VR, really liked it, so purchased a 2nd hand racing rig/wheel which elevated it to a completely new level. NEVER have a enjoyed a real racing game like this. Progression seemed good at the start, unlocked a few of my fave cars ever early on ... then a few hours later I was persusing the Legends Garage and saw a beaut of a car ... with an eye-watering 20,000,000 credits price tag??!!! Hmm ... surely an oversight/typo/bug?? Ive noticed these 60 minute races for 1,000,000 credit prizes.... so i'd need to race 20hrs of these extended sessions to afford ONE car!!!??? I then innocently noticed the credits "top-up" option next to my total credits. Ah ... a convenient (and obviously affordable way) to purchase vehicles without grinding ..... HANG ON - SOMETHINGS SCREWY HERE!!! £15.99 FOR 2,000,000 CREDITS!!@@**???? So to buy that single 20,000,000 piece of CAR SOFTWARE "DLC" with real money would cost me £160 quid OR almost an entire day of racing non-stop for TWENTY HOURS!! I LOVED this game, I adored collecting all the cars, viewing all my dream cars in the VR showroom and it actually got me HOOKED on a racing sim for the first time in my life. Im now realising that this is nothing more than a sinister, cynical, anti-consumer, greedy, rip off .... tailored to perfection to get kids spending more money than the £70(!!!) the actual game costs in the first place!! The enjoyment I got from collecting the cars has dwindled as I realise I dont have the time or REAL money to acquire anywhere near the % of cars that would be satisfying.
    AND THOSE SCAMMING PRE-DETERMINED ROULLETTE TICKETS!!! You should have 1/5th of a chance of getting the best prize every time. The game seems to have already decided to ALWAYS give you THE WORST PRIZE. You cant even press a button to tell it when to slow down which would make it fairer. Instead, the game forces you to watch on helplessly and hopelessly as you get repeatedly shafted! Just got a 6 STAR (no less) ROULLETTE TICKET tonight .... my prize ... a shaft (the irony) rod for a crappy Mazda I dont own with a value of (wait for it) .... 4,500 CREDITS!!! Thats a 6 STAR PRIZE!!!??? Somethings gone awry with this nonsense. I will keep playing as I do enjoy the racing, which is probably BEST IN CLASS, even though I know the rewards will be scant and i'll never get the enjoyment I should have got from it. Ive given it 3 star and that seems very high and overly generous compared to the 2.2 average score. Never have I felt so elated AND disappointed by a game before. Shame on the greedy, cynical fat cats who designed this cash grab of a business model. Hope you choke on it!!!

    The way the store is handled in this game alongside the insane micro transactions show that Sony and Polyphony Studios are completely out of touch and don’t care about the gamers.

    The fact that they waited to do this until the critics reviewed the game too is so shady. They knew exactly what they were doing hiding this from the critics. It’s shameful.

    ADORAVO la serie Gran turismo.

Il primo lo giocai emulato su PC, il 2 lo giocavo a casa di amici che avevano la PS1, il 3 è stato il mio gioco di guida preferito per molti anni, ho difeso Gran Turismo dagli "attacchi" del primo forza motor sport, per il primo Xbox, ma dal 5 in poi la traiettoria scelta dalla Polyphony Digital li stava da prima facendo perdere terreno ed ora come ora, proprio sbandare.

    Partiamo dallo stile di gioco: le auto hanno la stessa fisica del primo GT: provate a schiantarvi a tutta velocità contro una barriera, l'auto si fermerà in maniera così innaturale da chiedersi se sia un gioco del 2022 o del 1970.
    I danni al veicolo si limitano a pochi fattori estetici e ad oggi, non ho notato danni meccanici rilevanti.
    Arriviamo poi a quello che reputo veramente assurdo per un gioco che faceva del Tuning delle vetture una delle sue peculiarità: le modifiche alle auto, hanno prezzi, effetti e limitazioni assolutamente senza senso.
    Nel mondo del tuning delle autovetture, si può fare praticamente di tutto. l'unico limite è il budget a disposizione, certamente portare una 595 abarth a a 500 cv costa molto, ma comunque meno di mettere le mani su una ferrari da 600 cv e portarla a 750. sono auto differenti con prezzi molto differenti e prezzi estremamente differenti. dal 5 in poi invece tutto si è omogeneizzato.
    Molto triste è nche il fatto di aver limitato le modifiche eseguibili e la compatibilità di alcune di esse a modelli invece che altri.
    Capisco non poter modificare una Tesla: non ha il motore termico, ma tutte le altre modifiche si dovrebbero poter fare a qualsiasi auto.

    Poi con l'aggiornamento 1.08 sono diventate molto impattanti le ODIATISSIME MICRO TRANSAZIONI! i premi delle competizioni si sono abbassati enormemente e si è costretti a ripetere le stesse corse per decine di volte se si vuole avere un po' da spendere, anche in virtù del fatto che le auto vinte non si possono vendere!
    Questo contribuisce a rendere ripetitivo e noioso un gioco che aveva fato della varietà il suo punto forte,
    Aggiungo anche la mancanza di alcuni marchi importanti come Lotus. Kia, la Alfa Romeo Giulia e Stelvio.
    Insomma GT7 ha perso la sua identità concentrndosi sulla frivolezza e sul Pay For Win. premiando con poco e richiedendo soldi veri per auto virtuali.

    Penso che lo restituirò un gioco che per chi come me ama le corse e il tuning non ha più nulla da dire,

    Game is great fun and all but at the moment it doesn't really matter because the only online to play, the slow and grinding credit system and microtransactions make it horrible. The economics in this game is a mess. It costs you 37k for a set of racing tyres and the prize money for winning the race is 30k

Bei über 400 Autos hat man natürlich ein paar Lieblinge die man in seiner Sammlung haben will. Zudem will man auch in die Kiste ordentlich Geld investieren da man jetzt wieder ein ausgiebiges Tuningsystem zur Verfügung hat. Auch beim Sport Modus muss man vorher seine Autos ordentlich pimpen um überhaupt mitreden zu können. Das kostet natürlich alles Credits, das Spiel gibt aber keine Möglichkeiten mehr ordentlich daran zu kommen. Online gibt es nicht viel, die täglichen Belohnungen sind hit or miss, aber meistens das Letztere, und in Einzelrennen auf der Weltkarte wurden die Belohnungen so stark rintergeschraunt das es gar keinen Spaß macht. Klar, bei Sport gab es viele Blue Moon Builds um für Geld zu grinden, ein paar Bugs die man ausnutzen konnte, aber bei 7 gibt es keine effektive Methode um an Geld zu kommen, außer echtes Geld dafür auszugeben. Wenn man bedenkt das man manch teures Auto wie den R18 für 3 Mille braucht um an die Platin Trophäe zu kommen, wird das ganze Spektakel nur noch traurig. Uch arbeite so langsam mich voran und hoffe das Polyphony den Fehler einsieht und das Problem mit einem Patch wieder behebt. Expand

As someone who played GT1-4, but then found himself with an XB rather than a PS for over a decade, it has been a joy to get back to the series. That said, the most recent update has sucked the like out of this game for me. The roulette spins and slapdash “campaign” were already issues, but so could deal with that, bc I knew the grind would eventually get me where I was going. With the most recent update and nerfed payout, the cold reality for me, a somewhat casual player in my old(er) age, is that I’ll never see the nicest cars, unless I’m willing to drop $100+ of my hard-earned money (in addition to the cost of the game!). I simply will not do this. Poly’s craven efforts at limiting in-game currency so they can push microtransactions are pitiful. They deserve anything they get. Once they fix in-game payouts to be reasonable and address some of the other irritations with campaign and roulettes, it will be a game I’ll recommend to friends. Until then, itMs going to cost Poly more in lost sales than it would for me to buy the McLaren. It’s sad, but I guess that’s the state of AAA gaming these days… Expand

    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.
