I dont care. It might be useful considering I wont have the time I once had to invest in this game.

Seems like it's the same as Dead Space 3s system whereby everything you can buy via microtransactions can be unlock just by simply playing the game normally. I'm fine with this sytem so long as it aint like P2W games like Planetside 2 and Tribes Ascend where you have to clock 1000+ hours to afford anything worth mentioning.

It'll probably be more like Forza.

You can buy cars with in game credit earned from racing or use a token to buy a car (maybe several tokens for expensive cars). A token cost $1 or less if you buy a bundle.

Fail no matter what :-/ although GT is a kind of game when you sometimes are forced to grind when you want some cars for example, and that was present even when there were no microtransactions so it somehow "fits" this game, still I don't like the fact itself that microtransactions are making it's way to console games that aren't F2P.

It started way back with Dantes Inferno.

Im for it.
Some dudes in Gt are damn near pros they can get any car, im not on that level.
When stuck this will be a good option.

We need to wait for a review to see if they've nerfed the credit rate compared to GT5 to encourage you to buy them. If they have, fuck them.

As someone said before, microtransactions should be in free to play games.

Our video game consoles are adopting the methods of candy crush and other Facebook addict games. and I find it kind of sickening. I saw these crap coming from the start of DLC. DLC for instance is alright far down the road but not when it's planned before the game is even out. SELL THE WHOLE GAME DAMNIT!

^Yes that's me ripping it up in the GIF. :)

Boooooooooo! To hell with micro transactions on full $60 games. This is why I held onto my old consoles, I feared it would be the only way to enjoy real games with getting wallet fucked one way or another.

If this is the price to pay for being able to buy more than one car at a time then bring it. If I still have to buy a single god damn car everytime I go to the dealership then this is pointless to me. All the fake money in the world can't buy the convenience of multiple purchases.

I get that they are optional and they really don't change anything, as grinding was always necesary in GT, but I absolutely hate microtransactions. and it's sad to see them make their way into such a great franchise. For shame...
