I fraking hate this game. It is incredibly frustrating. The AI. The lack of brake upgrades. A damage model that requires level 40? WTF? The fact that there's only really 200+ cars to enjoy, the Standard cars are dead to me. The UI is frustrating as all hell. The menus take forever to load. the list goes on and on, so many broken elements.

It is obvious that Sony pushed them to release this early and broken.



Yet, I can't wait to get home and play it more.

I feel the same way. What really pisses me off is the two titles I was looking forward to playing this year Black Ops and this was a let down on so many levels... I'll still play it but not without *****ing and moaning about it like a girl. LOL

All valid points.. wonder if they released it 6 months, 1 year earlier people wouldnt be *****ing so much?

Very obvious Sony put their foot down on this.. hopefully GT5 v2.0 will be a better product after all the patching.

All that being said.. nothing is really stopping me from completely enjoying it

You whiny kids need to "sack up or pack up."

They already made public their plans to patch this game for a long time to come. I find it incredible that some of you pick out a couple small flaws with such a fun game and ride them to death.

valid points. i don't have a problem with the damage kicking in after a certain level. in a way it makes sense since you should be a much better driver at later levels. the load times are a bit annoying.

Load times, "vague" feel in the rally section are my only complaints right now. Don't mind the damage now or later,doesn't matter to me.
Give it time,fellas. Like Kaz said, lots of updates and patches to follow.

what's your main car that you're using?

debating on what car to buy next


I usually use the AMG SLS GT edition.

Yeah a .5 option would be nice

I am scared about damage. If it is bad enough it will end your race. 24 hour enduro races also coming up in level 20-25
