well i dont have a problem with it as the way i see it is that more money for PD to put into developing features, dlc's or GT7
this exactly. No-one HAS to buy the extra credits but if people do and that helps with game development then I'm all for it.
This^^^

It is no different to buying the car tokens with real cash in Forza4, none of the "knickers in twist over it on Forza5 and now GT6" lot noticed that though rolleyes


Some will whine about anything.

I've noticed that the community of people who play racing games love to whine biggrin Just check out the gtplanet forums for proof! To be honest, I had no idea that GT5 was so hated; it had some flaws and weak points (engine noises being the most notable for me) but overall, I really enjoyed it and have played rather a lot of it overall. I preordered GT6 on Tuesday from Amazon, and it was shipped at 4am this morning.
Exactly why I don't post on gaming forums.
I don't suffer fools

I don't want to spoil too much for you but having progressed a little since yesterday the only car I have bought has been the one you have to at the start, Fit RS, if you Gold the licences and initial rounds you get gifted cars that has progressed me to the start of National A having only spent cash on a few modifications.

Slow too start but it soon picks up and doesn't take too long to get an invitation from Lord March wink
Can you tell me if prize cars are the ones you can use in next tear of races or do they still give you a prize car to use in the race you just won?

Example: race 7 is for MX5s Race 8 is for AWD Japanese.......
So in GT5... Buy and do up an MX5 for race 7.....win race 7..then get awarded another MX5! or would you get a AWD Jap car? does the solo career flow properly?

If you see what I mean

It seems to give you a more suitable car than GT5, when I got gold on all of the first licence I was awarded a FWD Clio RS '11 car that got me through pretty much all of the next few rounds with just a few mods. The next licence it was rather special RR KTM X-Bow.
Thank you smile sounds good

Snap. £29.17

If it arrives tomorrow then I'll be amazed. Amazon have never delivered a pre-order on release day to me.

so how come they've charged me £38.99 for mine?
Mine is NOT from Amazon nono

Looks like the pre-order from Amazon comes with 1M credits. Am I the only one who thinks this rather ruins the game?
I'll let those that did answer that.

Day one patch is 1207mb

That is ridiculous. It's basically an admission that it's a rush-job.

I'm out.
How big was the day one patch on Forza5

The XJ13 costs 20 mil, so siurely you must be allowed more
This was why i didn't like the 20mill cap on GT5.

There were cars I wanted that would have wiped me out completely so I never did get them.

At least with microtransactions you now have the option to buy a few CRs if you need them after splashing out on something special.
