GT6 Third Update: New Car, Possible Problems

January 14, 2014 By Andy ORD Leave a Comment

Last updated on January 13th, 2021 at 03:21 pm

Hot on the heels of its patch just ahead of Christmas, Gran Turismo 6 today receives a third update.

Now reaching Version 1.03, the list of changes for GT6 doesn’t show fixes but does portray new features that include a unique car and a full visual upgrade to a recent addition.

Drive Toyota’s FT-1 Concept Coupé

Toyota introduced its sporty concept car at the first Press Day of this year’s North American International Auto Show in Detroit – commonly to positive reaction from writers and readers alike. Barely a day after the unveiling, the FT-1 is now a resident of GT6. Toyota’s coupé can be bought through the GT6 dealership or will be awarded as a prize once a Bronze award or higher is achieved in the current Seasonal Event that has marked its arrival. As they say, for a limited time only!

GT6 – the new showroom-clean BMW M4 Coupé interior

December brought a similar Polyphony Digital-car company collaboration when the BMW M4 Coupé was introduced to the world and GT6 with Update 1.02 on the 18th of the month. It only took to the real-world stand at the Detroit Auto Show yesterday! GT6’s incarnation of the M4 has now been upgraded with a ‘full’ interior and the model will receive an automatic update via the usual process. As with the Toyota FT-1, the M4 Coupé can be obtained by reaching at least a Bronze award in the current Seasonal Event.

Remember that seasonal events became more accessible with Update 1.02 and now only require players to have reached the level of a National B license rather than the previous National A. Less grind, more cars good! It’s also worth underlining that the limited-time events offer rich rewards, so be sure to take part in the competition before the end of the month if a few million extra credits hold appeal!

Onto Update 1.03 and the “known issue”…

Problem reproduction

Here’s how the Gran Turismo site sets out the process that might create the reported glitch:

  • When Gran Turismo 6 is launched while connected to PSN, a message will appear on screen informing the users that “the latest update data for this software has been found (Version 1.03)”.
  • Once accepted (by pressing the X button while selecting [OK]), a “Please wait…” message will be displayed. After a few seconds, the PlayStation 3 system will emit 3 acoustic signals and restarts automatically.
  • At this point, some users may receive a message stating that the system was not shut down correctly last time. The system will ask then to perform a system file check and then the reboot is completed.
  • Users will be prompted again to download Update 1.03, whether they received the message in step 3 or not.

Avoidance and application

  • To work around the possibility of finding the flaw, accept a download of the patch by selecting [OK] within 2 seconds of the prompt appearing on-screen. The update will now be properly applied.
  • If the 2-second window is missed, refuse the update by pressing the Circle button when the message in Step 1 is shown. Following that, choose Back in the subsequent “Sign-In to PSN” screen. GT6 will start. Quit the game using the PS button while in the My Home screen and follow the directions outlined above.

A further point of note

  • In Step 3 you may also receive a “Report this problem to Sony Computer Entertainment?” message. Simply select either [Yes] or [No] to proceed.

Updates noted. Next stop, meeting the FT-1 challenge at Laguna Seca. Well, perhaps after another look at Toyota’s concept line-up…
