The (un)Official Gran Turismo 5 Thread of: Duping!

My main problem against duping isn't not that it undermines the effort that the people, who actually had the skill to get it, went through. It's actually that this should be treated as something illegal by PD.

This situation isn't all that different from gold duping or item duping in mmorpg's like Diablo II or WoW, where this is shunned and even banned by Blizzard.

I really do hope that PD comes down hard on dupers in GT5. There will be tons of rage coming from the GTP forums and many other GT5 related forums worldwide, but this is a lesson that must be taught.

Without a doubt, it's likely PD will fix the issue but i can guarantee that dupers won't be punished in any way. Duping in GT5 really isn't comparable to doing it in an mmo. When you do it in an mmo, you screw over tons more people and even have a possibility of really affecting playing habits. Trading items/cars isn't what GT5 is about.

Anyways, I never offered to pass out X1's like candy. So far I've only gave out two to some friends I know. Since so many people seem to be bothered by the idea of duping cars, I'll stick to just giving out chrome paints and probably just take down the whole tutorial on how to do it.

Btw no offense but, low-post count peeps need not apply. Threads like this often attract one-time posters just tryin to freeload.
