Polyphony Digital will vastly improve Gran Turismo 7 to meet the automotive needs of gamers.
If Gran Turismo 7 is selling well and the reviews are pretty correct, then the poor balancing and constant connectivity has caused fans of the license to react furiously on social media. Faced with the rumble, Kazunori Yamauchi, CEO of Polyphony Digital, decided to take responsibility for bad decisions and promises change: “Thank you for your unwavering support and constant feedback, you are not speaking in a vacuum.
I would like to apologize for the frustration and confusion caused by our update last week, which not only caused servers to crash, but resulted in adjustments to the in-game economy that were made without a clear explanation to our community. We know this is not the GT experience you’re expecting, and we’ll be extending a gesture of goodwill in the form of a 1 million kr Unredeemed Credits package available to all affected players. You will soon find these loans on your accounts. Be sure to log in before April 25 to receive credits. ”
Many improvements coming to PS5 and PS4 in the coming weeks: A previously released update patch was supposed to fix an issue with incompatible rewards for World Circuit events. But in order to restore the desired balance and offer fairer rewards based on time spent and completion, the entire reward system needed to be recalculated. To improve the gameplay, we will release a massive patch in early April.
The number of events will be increased and we will restore the reward system with a better balance throughout the game so that all players can benefit. In addition to these changes, several additional patches will also be released before the end of April, which will add new cars and racing layouts. as well as other changes. Finally, we’d like to take this opportunity to announce some short-term updates we’re working on right now. We cannot give you an exact date or be more specific at this time.”
