Polyphony Digital has detailed some major changes coming to Gran Turismo 7. This is in response to the changes to the in-game economy as well as server outages that have plagued the game over the weeks since launch. In particular, fans were quite outraged that following a 2-3 day outage, the in-game economy and how many Cr were earned by playing the game had changed without any warning.
Anyone that has played the game before today will be able to get 1 million Cr. You must login to play the game before April 25th to play the game.
There’s also big changes coming to the game in a patch in early April, where the number of events will be increased and the reward system will be reintroduced with greater benefit for the players.
- Increase rewards in the events in the latter half of the World Circuits by approximately 100% on average.
- Addition of high rewards for clearing the Circuit Experience in all Gold/All Bronze results.
- Increase of rewards in Online Races.
- Include a total of eight new one-hour Endurance Race events to Missions. These will also have higher reward settings.
- Increase the upper limit of non-paid credits in player wallets from 20M Cr. to 100M Cr.
- Increase the quantity of Used and Legend cars on offer at any given time.
It’s also said that new cars and tracks as well as some other fixes will be rolled out between now and the end of April.
Polyphony also detailed some updates that were coming later down the track. These include:
- Increase the payout value of limited time rewards as we develop as a live service.
- Further World Circuit event additions.
- Addition of Endurance Races to Missions including 24-hour races.
