Microtransactions are very much an accepted part of the gaming ecosystem these days, but some triple-A developers take it too far. Now, after a controversial patch reduced the credit payouts from key races in Gran Turismo 7, players are taking matters into their own hands by using an exploit to grind out millions of credits while they're off doing other tasks, like doing the dishes or sleeping.
As we discussed in a recent story, Gran Turismo 7's launch has been rather unpleasant, as many fans have complained that the more expensive cars in its online store are far too pricey to obtain through regular play. Indeed, GT7's prices are far higher than previous entries in the series, with some particularly desirable vehicles costing the equivalent of $30 or $40 alone.
