Gran Turismo 5 update coming this weekend

The wait is finally over and Gran Turismo 5 has now officially skidded its way into retail stores, onto PS3s, and into our hearts. The party's just begun, though, with an update set to arrive this weekend.

Kazunori Yamauchi confirmed this scheduled update to the game's online mode in an interview with Eurogamer. Slated for a Saturday release, the update will "refine the usability of the game to make it a better experience."

 

 

Explained the Polyphony boss, "We received a lot of demands for having more regulations placed on the online play. We're going to perform an update on the 27th that will include things like max power restrictions and weight restrictions. It's like a living creature, dynamically growing as we speak. I think it's going to be hard to find an end to that process."

 

 

 

Yesterday, players experienced some major clogging in connection because of the high volume of launch traffic. "The data centre was set up to handle 50,000 connections but the number of connections we received greatly exceeded that amount and there was a high chance of experiencing problems as a result," said Yamauchi of the traffic pile-up.

 

 

 

"The design of the GT game really integrates the online and offline parts. So the problems online actually affected the offline play as well. Right now we've changed the number of simultaneous connections that are possible to one million, doubling the number, and we're trying to gauge what will happen, but we don't know at this point in time."

first he says that there are 50 000 connections max, then he says we changed it to one million, doubling the number..
50 000+50 000 isn't a million..

they should have anticipated the volume of people who would be going online on launch day. i mean, they've teased this game for so long to fans, it's expected they'll jump on board as soon as the gates open. anyway, at least they're dealing with it stat.

I'm waiting for the regulations patch, right now online is a pandemonium of "who has the better car than the others" or "let's play demolition derby". Also there was a nasty bug that when a free run was started it wouldn't let you start the race or exit. I don't know if that was addressed in this patch.
