How stackable is Gran Turismo 7?

[C-spec54 55]

Update May 26th, 2022:

 

With update 1.15 the trophies now sync when starting the game (I had to start the PS5 version first (got that platinum first) and then the PS4 version of the different countries.

According to some players the whole list of trophies does auto-pop.

 

 

 

------------------------------------

Just for fun and nostalgia, the old thread:

 

 

 

Info: Text re-written April 19th, game version 1.12

 

Hello everyone,

I wanted to post this info thread and answer the question "How stackable is Gran Turismo 7?".

 

Is the game stackable? The short answer is a YES and no - almost 100% stackable. Better said 91% at the end.

On the screenshot every trophy obtainable is unlocked (as far as it is possible till April 19th 2022).

 

So, what are the problems at the moment?

1. Finale - Fulfilled requirements for ending.
This unlocks after you have beaten menu 39 in the single player campaign. At the moment there are only 39 and so you can get this trophy only once. If there will be more than 39 in the future and it will unlock with other stacks when completing them?! In the "Known issues" that Polyphony list ingame, being unable to get all trophies when playing the game on PS4 and PS5 is listed. So a future update will surely solve this issue.

 

2. Living Your Car Life - Started the first menu.

If you keep in mind that you have to start one of the 39 menus with every stack, everything will be fine.
If you completed all menus with one stack, the others will not get this trophy at the moment. See 1.

 

3. Student of Motoring History - Completed the first car collecting menu.

Some of the menus will be completed by collecting three different cars (by buying them or racing the events where you can win them).

As mentioned with #2 above, you have to do one "car collecting menu" with every stack version. There are several of those menu missions, so if you just started the game, no problem here.

If you completed all menus with one stack, the others will not get this trophy at the moment. See 1.

 

Okay, those 3 are problematic and at the moment voiding the platinum for 4 of the 5 stacks until a future update solves this issue.

 

But what about the rest of the trophies?

No real problems here. I did all the trophies on the PS5 version first and thanks to the online save at Polyphony the game uses your progress carries over.

You did all the licenses on one stack? Okay, start another stack game and redo one license. All license trophies pop.

Same goes for the "driven miles" in single and multi player, the wins, the different wins and so on.

Just redo one of them and you get the trophies almost to "auto pop".

 

Unfortunatly you have to buy the electric car, the truck and the safety cars again with each stack. Also after buying the needed 3 legendary cars (Ford Mark IV Race Car, Jaguar XJ13, and Ferrari 330 P4 '67), you have to buy one more legendary car with every stack (just a cheap one will do it!).
Same goes for the tuning trophies (buy a turbo, buy a tuning part, buy a wing, clean the car, increase rigidity, buy a wide body and so on). Everyone has to be bought/done ONCE per stack again.

 

It took me about 1 - 1,5 hours for each stack (mostly because of the menus, there is not always directly a "get these 3 cars" menu).

 

If you have any questions, feel free to ask here

 

See you on the track,
C-spec

Hey man,

 

First off, thank you for your hard work testing out trophy stacking for GT7.

 

I would like to add some info regarding this trophy:

1. Three Legendary Cars - Acquired three legendary race cars that were once destined to win 24 hour races.
We have no clue which cars are exactly eligable and which are not - well, yet.

But as far as the stacking is concerned, I believe you have to buy at least 7 cars. Three different cars and then 4x one that fits the category, too, to unlock the trophy on every stack.

Expensive, but the trophies will unlock.

 

I waited to unlock that trophy on my PS5 "main" game before trying to unlock trophies for the PS4 stack. I'm happy to report that you don't need to buy one of the 3 legendary cars for the trophy to unlock on your second stack, any car will do.

 

I bought the R8 Gordini from the Legend Cars dealership and unlocked the following trophies at the same time:

 

Motor Mania (50 cars)

No Car, No Life! (100 cars)

Firm Favorite

Living with a Legend

Three Legendary Cars

 

That makes additional stacks substantially cheaper

 

EDIT: I've just seen that you have posted that info in the Three Legendary Cars thread already...

Silly question i know but what's the best way to get a Japanese, Asian and/or North American version of GT7 for the PS4? both digitally and physically?

[C-spec54 55]

I bought them all physically (was a bit expensive due to taxes, but can sell them again). Maybe it would be better to get them digitally in a year or two when the game is on sale?!

 

Edit: Finally got time to update the text in posting 1

fingers crossed that when PD patches the cafe menu progression bugs, the entire list from another stack would auto pop. should be feasible since all the stats are stored server side

Pretty confident it'll get corrected considering it's listed as known issue in-game, likely a lower priority compared to other things that list had. Just more reason to buy PS4 disc and just pay the upcharge for PS5 for your first copy, or digital for both since it's technically a live-service game.

 

Figured the issue is like what most QA, they just do a first pass on trophies but don't really test the scenario "what about if player completes all X tasks on PS4 and none is left when they upgrade" as the trophy is likely tied to the local variable, and not a global where the game could actively be looking for conditions to be met to unlock, or even just upon loading data. That's likely how those instant stacks work.

[C-spec54 55]

Am pretty confident that this will be fixed in an upcoming update. Like technole mentioned, the problem is writte in the official "known issues" posting by Polyphony.

Re-playing it on the ps4 version and the 50 sport races havent popped after playing 3 online races . My profile on the ps4 version says i have 38 sport races completed. Did you have that issue with any of the stacks with this trophy? 

[C-spec54 55]

Me? No, but I did the online races early after release when every race was counted as 2 races.

I did that as well. Most probably i will have to race the rest 12 which is not too much, but wanted to ask you. Thanks anyway!

I'm planning to get this game at some point, so, auto pop works both ways?

Yes it does. I got the platinum on ps5 first. I then used auto pop to get the other trophies. I did start on the NA PS4 version before they changed it so everything auto pops.

I can also confirm that autopopping works. I earned the Platinum on PS4 (EU) and once I started up the game on PS5 all trophies popped automatically. Completion time: 2 seconds 😅

[NTGSruler 181]

Earned the platinum on PS5 a while ago, can i autopop all trophies on PS4 now if i install and start the game?

Некоторое время назад я получил платину на PS5. Могу ли я теперь автоматически перейти ко всем трофеям на PS4, если я установлю и запущу игру?

Yes, all regions. In total, you can get 5 platinum GT7
