Gaming's most serious racing sim Gran Turismo 7 has a seriously funny bug
"Please do not patch."
Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No! It's a car in Gran Turismo 7.
Gran Turismo 7 players have flocked to social media to share examples of, uh, unusual driving physics after the racer's 1.49 update added a new setting that seemingly fills vehicles with helium.
Where developer Polyphony Digital had hoped to introduce "more natural weight" for players, cars are instead launching themselves into the air, making for some extraordinarily amusing clips:
New physics seems really fun

"I think I had, like, 12 heart attacks," added one Redditor. "I love this glitch, and it's so much fun dodging the inevitable fling."
"We are now aware of the following issue in the 1.49 Update released on July 25," Polyphony told players reporting the issue.
"Unintended vehicle behavior is produced when a particular car setting is set within Car Settings. This issue is currently under investigation. We apologise for any inconvenience this may be causing."
Not everyone is looking for a fix, though.
"This is the greatest update ever," said another redditor. "Please do not patch."
