GT6 1.02 now out
I'm not sure if this fixes the 1.0 glitch, but it's nice that they're adding extra bonuses. And that RedBull kart looks fun
Now, hopefully they'll release the online community features update soon
New cars yay :)
Also good for the people who did not cheat as all the payouts have been increased up to 170%!
Im so glad these updates are free :)
Also how do they get updates out so fast?
1.2G of cars, events and game changes is a pretty decent update tbh
Didn't take them long to fix the dismal payouts. Well done PD!
Just finished the Red Bull X2014 Junior challenge - of course you get one as a prize - and it's a damn fun car, looking forward to taking it for a spin more often.
This also looks to have been added in the patch (still need to confirm though) - Online lobby names changed to psn ID
Nice!!!!
Here are some other details. Im not sure about the 20mil glitch though as there seems to be conflicting info however supposedly, you can no longer do it.
Other patch details (what we've gathered so far):
- Ascari glitch dead
- 20mil glitch NO LONGER WORKS.
- Glitched garage and credits not affected.
- No multi-monitor options
- No check mark in dealerships for cars stored in stockyard
- BMW m4 now added in recommended cars
- RB kart cost 10k
- X2014 jr 200k
- Added lambo to vgt project
- "Terms & conditions" notification when booting up the game appears to have been corrected.
- RA functions now available for DS3 and supported wheels
- L1/R1 for menu working on DFGT but not on ds3 if plugged in together
- L1/R1 for menu still not working for T500rs, but neither on DS3 if plugged in together.
- Personal music working properly in races. Volume control added as well.
- Aftermarket wheels still bugged for cars with wider rear tires.
- "Real" slipstream option in addition to "Weak" and "Strong."
- "Drivetrain (Transmission)" Changed to "Transmission" in settings menu
- Mira has been fixed, it now has 183 horsepower when fully tuned
- Online lobby names changed to psn ID
- Blur in replays from normal views gone
- When in a base model car/kart, the driver number no longer goes blank when changing tuning sheet
3G's...Sincere Thanks for the Detailed Breakdown!
So the take home message is to not update until you've had fun shopping?
I think that is correct. Once we update to 1.02, it looks like it will be impossible to do the glitch anymore because the purchased Merc and/or BMW M4 cars will not be recognized at all in 1.0.
I only bought 100 or so cars using the glitch and so I have plenty to play for. I figured that the payouts would be improved at some point, just as they were in GT5 and so I am now in a position where I can enjoy the game with a good base garage from which to build.
I did this just in time. I assume there is no way to gift cars etc in GT6?
Not yet. Expecting a January patch to deliver community based pgrades where I expect gifting will be allowed back in (can gift in GT5)
Good news!
The GT5 gift option had a limit of $1 million per car. I would expect to see a similar limitation for GT6 gifting as well.
So it looks like as long as you are still in 1.01, you can still perfom the glitch however once you upgrade to 1.02 the ability to perfom the glitch has been fixed. In 1.02 you still have your garage and credits and you can sell a 20mil car for 6mil so all is good from that perspective. Bottom line, if you didn't already do the glitch, you are out of luck.
I would not get too concerned about your enjoyment of the game if you were not able to do the glitch. PD is making the same kind of changes to the GT6 economy that they made to GT5's economy, largely in the form of increased payouts for career and seasonal races and login bonuses. I was able to amass a garage totaling more than 1100 cars in GT5 largely via seasonal events and bspec grinding. Bspec grinding is likely out for me, since I am worried about burning up my 7 year old "fat" PS3 and so the seasonals and login bonuses will have to suffice.
Not worried at all. Like you, I have a great base garage to work from and plenty of cr. I was just posting the info in case anyone who hadn't performed the glitch that the window has closed. I do like that the economy has improved greatly
Gotta love it. Off throttle and downshifting sounds great.
