최근 지티코에서도 시기적절하게 여럿분들이 이벤트를 열고 하시고 했는데,

문제가 있었나 봅니다.

무작위로 끊기는 현상이 나타났다고 하네요. (조인시 에러코드 268)

아래 말은 긴데, 별로 중요한 내용은 없어보이고, 문제가 해결되었다고만;

원인 미상 ㅡㅡ;

엇그제 있던 문제가 아래의 문제인지, 해결되었는지,

해보신 분의 확인이 필요해 보이기도 하네요.

Many gamers have been reporting patchy online performance from Gran Turismo 5 in the last couple of days, with random disconnects from online lobbies and “Error Code: 268″ when trying to join. There was even a succinct message added to the in-game news feed yesterday afternoon:

Online Service Interruption

We are currently experiencing an interruption of the Gran Turismo 5 online service.
We apologise for the inconvenience and ask for your patience while we work to restore the service.

Though many suspect the culprit to be most recent game update, the reason appears to be more physical in nature – although Kazunori Yamauchi has Tweeted that he’s not entirely sure what the problem is – and Polyphony Digital are working on the repairs.

The issue seems to affect certain users more than others with no direct link between the effect and the users’ location. Unfortunately this gives gamers little else to do than await good news – which we’ll bring you as soon as we get it.

Edit: The in-game news feed was updated around 20.00GMT on October 9th with the following:

Online Service Restored

The interruption experienced in the online service of Gran Turismo 5 has been resolved, and the service is now back online.
We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Although no confirmation has been given as to what caused the problem in the first place, the message indicates it was a hardware fault rather than a software update bug.
