Would just like to personally thank gran turismo for putting the mini countryman into the game, I have dreams about the awesomeness of this car and definitely think it is well worth having this raging hatchback
Whoever decided “NO! I don’t want to put an actual fun car most normal people would like to see in a car racing game I want a mini countryman this car separates the men from the boys” I mean the countryman says it all in the name really “pure awesomeness is what I’m seeing” I know the best way to make a game of any sort more appealing is to put a mini countryman in. For example take the latest cod mw3 add a countryman to this and be prepared to be blown away!
ON THE OTHER HAND what the hell are you thinking no one wants gay cars like this in the game ffs same goes for about 80% of all the standard cars too for example why is a “1972 honda life step van” in this game?!
I really love gran turismo but really come on give us some new premium cars we will actually look forward to driving in the game please
I have two accounts on my PS3. If I buy the DLC will I be able to play it on both accounts???
yes
I want the BMW Vision Concept Car in the next dlc. It’s wicked!
Um what’s the next update it should be night at Daytona I’m at the 24 hour of Daytona and I want to use my simulator on it
I’ve been reading comments about the game since it came out and i gotta admit that i agree with some and disagree with others. The new Dlc is okay,not great!! Set aside the lambo and the Aston, what do we have left? I completely agree with making it possible to buy the cars separately. Im never going to use the Beetle in a serious online race unless if its Beetle only type of race nor the Jag(sry jag fans). Now, my point is GT is about racing and racecars; why can’t we get the cars from wtcc, btcc, fia gtc and even the Australian v8 supercars championship? i would really really really love to drive those Chevy Cruze and the Seat!!! Plz take my advice and make things more competitive for me and my rm Dc5. As for cars that should of been in the game, we could always wonder why the 89 M3 race mod is on there since its competitor is; the M-B evo ll. The 85 rx-7 which was in gt2 as also a racemod!! The Datsun 510!!! We also, PD, also wanna drive those cars. Know how they feel when pushed to their limits just like our legends did back in the days.
i meant to say the 89 bmw is not on there while its competitor is. And also i was expecting the 1M Bmw to be on the last Dlc. Let’s wait n see for that one. My last question to P D would be why why n why don’t we have any Ferraris or Aston Martins or lambos in race mod? Don’t they compete in the same class in the real world?? You already bombarded us with Nissans n Skylines. Y the Leaf???
oh… one more thing P D, more R iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiims.
Ever consider that the lesser cars help those just starting out with GT5. They probably don’t have a lot of credits yet, but with purchase of DLC they already have various cars they can use to compete in many events. I remember all the grinding I did so I could purchase this car or that car just for one event. I know it costs real money but for some people it’s worth purchasing DLC with lower end cars. They can skip all the grinding for cars and focus on grinding to level up.
yes and just like the last Dlc we had, they could sell those cars individually and when it comes to btcc, wtcc and such they could sell them as a pack since they compete in the same category. My problem is paying for crapy cars which i know in the first place am never gonna use but just collect it. I wanna go online and compete just like they do it in real life. Those cars would be perfect in the game. They would add more flavor, more options for drivers to pick from. We won’t have to pick the same cars anymore. That’s what makes it interesting, different tunes, what advantage one offer in certain part of the track that the other doesn’t… I just wana race and since Gt5 is simulation, I wanna get my hands on the real deal. You guys won’t regret it, i promise. Watch wtcc and you’ll get it.
Wait so does the Speed Test Course Pack actually have a track for drag racing & recording your 1/4 mile & all that???
am i the only want who wants an aston one-77? :DDD
No I would like to have it in GT5 but also the dbs
In the next car pack i wanna see the hypercar pack- PREMIUM veyron, veyron ss, ssc ultimate aero, and a koenigsegg agera r. Thank me later, PD
they should also sell the dlc cars individually
Amazing DLC. The only other things I could ask for are the Saleen S5S Raptor, 2012 or 13 Shelby GT500, Camaro ZL1, and Silverstone.
I think for the next DLC, they should include the KTM X- Bow R
I wonder if gt5 will ever put a real drag strip… With a tree and everything it’d be a great addition
if anyone from PD is reading this. please contact me. i want my money back pronto.
not worth $20 NZD
Good luck with that.
SPAM
@ Panamera
No way you are a GT5 fan, if you were, DLC price would not be a concern, too many people commenting are so obviously ‘ NOT ‘ fans of the game. Yes Microsoft and Turn10, GT is going from strength to strength while your game is just fading away, thats what happens when its all smoke a mirrors. Some people commenting proberbly have’nt even played GT or don’t even own a PS3…idiots
The Aston sounds pretty awesome too i love it
Now PD all we need is the DBS and the DBR9 please please pwetty please
+1
And I can tell you’re a fanboy.
Loving this new DLC, the speed test is awesome, the cars are great, and love the XJR premium conversion :D
stop money!!!!! GRATISSSS!!!! FREEEEE!!!!!
Rightyo
Whatsup guys, love this new DLC, veyron got a 2.2sec 0-100 !!! But has anyone got it over 450km/h?
well my VIPER went 548kph- 341mph but it was drafting super fast.
Ahhhhh Damn PSN Store Maintenance!!!!!!!!!
Thank you PD and Mr. Yamauchi for this awesome update! I wanna say 2 things a) a lot of people complaining me included because we can’t get rid of DLC cars and end up with duplicates, I ‘d like to believe that 2.04 will fix that!
b) I can’t wait for the next DLC, bring it on! As for its content would it be possible to have another track? I think that Gran Turismo may not have that many tracks but has managed to include the most prestigious tracks around the world. Nurburgring, Monza, Monaco, Suzuka, Fuji, Laguna Seca and but not least SPA! If anyone told me in late ’97 that in the not distant future all these cars will be available I would thought the existence of Santa Claus is far more possible and I was 14 at the time! Now what I am reaching at is this the only track missing in that aforementioned spectacular list is MT Panorama, Barthurst though not my personal favourite. And on a personal note if we end up getting Guia circuit, Macau then I guess I ‘sd be as happay (as a gamer) as I was back in late ’97.
No new seasonal events today?
hi bob
is it just me, or is the game better looking since 2.03?!!
i mean that the texture-quality of farer away objects doesnt reduce as quick as before…
it looks so much sharper now, isnt it?
btw: i love the mini countryman on the new 400pp seasonal event.
untuned it fits perfect and feels great
I just want to say that the speed test pack and new SS Route X track are sensational.
You’d think a 30km oval would be boring, but I got a lot of fun playing on it last night. Brilliant for testing and performance comparison – as its stated aim. Love the looks of the track too.
Oh, and one more thing, isn’t the new premium XJR9 a different livery to the standard one?
Yeah, i would prefer if you had to buy the DLC cars instead of you get them given to you, most of the time they aren’t even the colour i want.
Havent bought the dlc yet (or even updated to 2.03), i just wanna know how the down force option on the chaparral effects the car.
Why Can’t we sell the DLC cars?
After purchasing, downloading and installing the car pack, I didn’t realise they went straight into your garage. I went direct to the dealers and bought a Beetle and a V12 Vantage, only to find I had duplicates that I didn’t really want. Tried to sell them, but computer said noooo.
What’s the benefit of restricting selling cars, especially one I neither want or need?
Hey, i just bought the DLC (Car Pack 3 & Speed Test) in US PSN Store… I WAS SHOCK! I forgot that my GT5 disc is EU region. So my DLC cannot be use… ooooh… why we cannot use it on multiple region/account? SO sad…. and this is my first purchase on PSN Store… :(
Just a warning not to get carried away with top speed tests.
My Playstation le Mans car, which won comfortably the B-spec le Mans race three times, and which had PP around 720 so I had to use the engine limiter, after about four laps flat out was down to c. 688 PP :-( No, an oil change didn’t make a difference. Engine rebuild time?
If you removed downforce, then you will see a significant PP drop. From 720 to 688 is only 32pp, which sounds entirely plausable if you take the downforce from maximum to minimum.
Four laps is 120km. That probably won’t do a whole lot to your engine usually, but keeping it at high rpm and max load would probably worsen it.
The new ‘Speed Test Pack’ DLC adds a ‘Speed Test’ feature to Gran Turismo 5. The price of the DLC will be A$5.60.
A ‘Special Stage Route X Oval’ is also included in this pack as a special stage for performing the tests. Measure the performance of your favorite cars with a variety of test features.
For details, please see the related links at the bottom of the page.
Car Pack 3
This DLC adds cars to Gran Turismo 5. The price of the DLC is A$8.45.
PS store in Australia is charging more than the website says?????????????????????????????????????????????????/
Im ringing them tomorow and getting my money back,ill not be charged more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
im on the phone to support now….when i told the guy the price difference from the website(gt5) and ps store he let out a big “OOHHHH” then said can i hold……piggys on the ball for us Aussie’s being ripped off.it might pay to check your counrty’s pricing too……
cant spell,cant bowl
`…5-10 days and bad luck,no route X
so there is a known issue with pricing in Australia.The guy on the phone has to write a report for his manager.oh well atleast they are trying…..and i rang at 5:25pm melbourne time
we get ripped off here in aus – 7.79 SGD = 5.86858 AUD for car pack 3
Great Succes! Been playing for five hours now.. Got to get some sleep before work.. :D
gotta say, the new Lambo and Route X are amazing, haven’t tried the other cars yet, but i love being able to push the car to its max speed!
also, the acceleration/speed test is also alot of fun, i bought a second Aventador and loaded it up with every tune and body part available, tuned it, and got it to about 394 kmh, it probably could do about 10kmh more so with some breaking in, and even more when drafting
who’s loving this DLC?
I AM!! I AM!!!
Sorry for the misspelled words guys. Stupid spell check rearranged some of my words when I post.
@wheelman990
You are being crazy. Asking for a little too much. You must be a child because real ft fans don’t show that much negitivity towards doc.
If you want all of that bs that forza has then go play forza. I have both forza4 and gt5 and forza is not much to smile at after about a month of play.
What do you expect pd/Sony to charge for a couple things? 10 bucks is about right. But you would pay 60 bucks for a bunch of forza bs that would look silly in gt5.
I have a better idea what people can pay 60 bucks on in gt5 besides what you want…let’s dream a little
60 bucks for:
1. New premium cars in every dealer, including 5 new dealers added to dealership(Porsche, koeninsegg, etc).
2. 10 new tracks. (Redrock valley, Seattle cir etc)
3. New aspec, bspec events.
4. Various maintnace (bug fixes) etc.
Id pay 60 bucks for that
Im not upset they are charging, I just wish they would give us about 100 great premium cars, allow us to paint any care we like(like forza does). Allow us to change wheels on any car(as well as offer new wheels). get rid of all the standard cars…….and replace the terrible engine sounds…..and then charge $60 for all I care!!! $6 for this pack just isnt worth it IMO therefore I happily wont be buying it.
I agree with the people complaining about money, I`m in the UK, just got back from work and I`ll happily download the DLC – Guys, Remember, Japan suffered a massive earthquake and subsequent problems last year, the money we are paying does go to PD, but ALSO to the economy of Japan, just be thankful for what we get. If you dont like the price, dont buy it – Simple as that. Now, I`m off to hammer a Lambo…enjoy…
People are so bugging me with this price stuff. If tall think its unfair then don’t buy it.
Pd has their reasons why this wasn’t included in past dlcand tall don’t have to know why either.
There creating stuff for us after crying for months and yall complain about price?
Hell, if I put in blood sweat and energy trying to please fans of my work, I’d charge also.
I don’t think nobody should complain about anything when all we have before any new dlc is the same ole stuff.
In case you havnt been to ROUTE X yet.
Notice the on ramps/off ramps.
PD to expand this track?
http://youtu.be/M36VHIB9RtM
Great DLC love the Aventador… But what was with the NSX teaser? you show us it then you dont give it to use?
I think that Route X is kinda boring but i found out that if you hit the top wall that it will act like a halfpipe… try it, it makes a big differance in boredom
GOt the DLC it is great and GT5 drives so much better after the updates. I went away for awhile , months, and when i returned after the updates this game rocks. So glad i’m a fan of the series and had everyone that has come out and a few overseas! Thanks P.D.!
Hi Tika, yeah the Aston is my favorite vehicle followed by the beetle, then the Nissan then the Jaguar, never really took to Lambos but it’s ok. Aston has had full stage tune, all mods except exhaust tailpipes of any sort. Prefer standard jetlike sound.. 700bhp on slicks on the nurburg=thrilling ride!!!
I like my cars close to the real thing not too much Wight lose, little factory like tuning.
And then make it faster and trash the hell out of them.
What can I say the Aston is A wonderful ride love the way it drives ‘’ already have two now and three Lambo`s
And I fall in An instant love for the Lambo, the way that car rides fabulous you really can push the car in A great way to his limits and slightly over it for it tries to kill you.
I usually keep my cars stock too. For supercars like the Aventador, I always leave them stock unless I have multiples of the for some reason.
good thing jakhole!
its the way i do it too.
i really got nearly all cars in gt5… (standard n premium)
for every car i tuned i bought one in stock again
(mostly premium cars, cause i like the cockpit and so dont drive standard cars to much)
some of the cars i like most i got up to 5 different versions of them; different tuning, different colour, but always one like it came from the dealer.
also because in some online races they want u to use stock cars.
the thing is, i got now more than 1200 cars and my garage needs a great time to load, haha
I just ripped 150kg out of the Aston and give it A sports exhaust. Nice throaty sound now and with the loose of Wight the car has better handling as well, quicker response and better handling : )
Painted it GT Japanese 001-c , I really think it looks magnificent in that colour.
Its cool to test and compare each car… but and this is a minor, I wish that when you recorded a new set of figures with the same car it either saved them seperately or overwrote the old record… I recorded a very quick 0-60 time and it said 7th, even though it was only the 2nd car on the list…
if that makes any sense :S
too many records to keep track of. I think that makes sense. It should be better organized.
1st two attempts with new DLC Aston Martin at the Nur online, = 2 consecutive wins agains BMW M5 . CSL.
Best DLC and update ever. Driving has improved dramatically with this new update for me.
Confirming I just downloaded both DLC it’s now available in Australia.. All I can say is that Lambo.. Wow I’m in love..
lol…:)
I didnt understand one thing you said Tika.
: )
: )
: )
The track new Route X track is good. Nothing great. Its good for testing your speeds if not online. However, I found that the track gets a bit boring after 2 laps. (I was able to eat and drive at the sametime lol) The track is almost 19 miles long with some elevation in the middle of the track on both sides plus ovals. I played against alot of poeple lastnight and found poeple entering and exiting the room rather quickly. I think they may think its a bit boring as well. I think the track was built mainly to help out the trolls who keep wanting drag racing with the acception of making ovals. Its def. perfect for that being that the straights are a few miles long. Anyway, the track isnt worth what I thought it was but my Lambo is the best looking out there in GT5 including online. lol.
Till the next DLC.
Pardon my grammer: The New Route X Track.
Also, nice back rounds and night change shift with illuminatin lights. *Fabolous voice:…Niceee.*
I Didn’t buy the track DLC I test en trash my cars one the Nurburgring 20km of fast corners slow corners off hill downhill negative camber end so on. what more do you need to have great fun with A car
Overall I’m Happy – I just had a run on the oval, with 8 cars, mine is of course Faster so i’m in front draging the other cars . But I notise that the Cars behind me on the Oval part ( going round again ) The cars behind me is ½ under the surface – menaing they are not driving on the surface .. Looking like a Game suddenly Ups … :P You got work to do PD :0) But overall Thank you for a fine piece of work – I even notise that the boat are sailing, and the night/day change is very beautiful – Not many men are working in the Habour though LOL .. Just playing .. See you on the next DLC i guess …
Need some help here guys. I seem to have a problem or I’m doing something wrong.
Have the update installed.
Purchased the new track and car pack from playstation store.
Started up game. Pressed download button on main menu bar.
New download content not there. Older installed content is.
Any ideas what’s up?
I’m in Dublin by the way.
had the same problem with a paint pack last night which i bought for the concept ft car..got the car, but diddnt get the paints. but this dlc today came down fine.
My friend had that happen as well he downloaded racing car pack and got a S.VETTEL 2010 how did that happen?
OOOhh wauuww just did A few laps in the DLC Lambo what A wonderful car is that. Run it on slicks and trasht the paddles to the floor in it on the Nurburgring. Wauw what A beautiful Animal is that car , what A treat to drive on the limit. How its drives steers and burns rubber I believe I won’t come out of this chair this evening. I love this car THANK YOU SO MUCH PD THIS CAR ALONE IS WORHT MY 6 BUX.. THANK YOU AGAIN THIS CAR IS WONDERFUL …
Haha. Wow tika, you must have enjoyed your lambo alot. :)
Now out in UK!
I’m in Singapore, & have downloaded the DLC3. The track cost S$5.19 (US$4.05). The cars cost S$7.79 (US$6.09). Total S$12.98 (US$10.14).
Hmmmm, you don’t get a colour choice for the cars when you pay for the download…
you can buy another car from the dlc packs with the colour of your own choice at the new car dealership using in game credits…
Do the airintakes come up on the lamborghini???
Yes.
552km/h with two X on X route!! :D
try 360mph…i need a 3rd X1 on track to beat that
EWW forza fanboys! kollosson you’re right, they are here. Get away from me, AHHHHHH! “Runs off”
By the way I don’t hate forza. But I do dislike fanboys of it…
i’m not a fanboy of forza i rather GT5 but thats just a total rip off $5 just for one track…c’mon thats just dissappointing.
Oh don’t worry xlCamlx, I don’t mean you. I meant Loonycrazyone… Don’t let him trick you. It’s nice to see 10 cars in one DLC but I believe they’re locked ingame because the A.I. drives them and…. Anyway, enough going off topic about forza. This is GT5’s newest DLC were talking about after all. :)
You guys should start looking for a job…the price isnt that bad.
Im not saying its steep in general (I bought it, didt I), just making the comparison against other currencies.
Still nothing in french store …
Yeahhh got it tested my first under 10sec car
Come over to Forza 4 boys, ya’ll will love it. Car packs contain TEN Cars !!!!
great idea lol i only joined GT plannet to advertise my hate for the game now :P
F*** forza. They released DLC like 2 weeks after the game came out.
I was disappointed when they released the aventador as DLC at day 1. How could you Turn 10…
you gotta be pretty sad to come on a gt5 forum and post about forza. little man you know nothing..
Day 1 dlc no thank you
Ok, sure. I’ll pay $250 on a system I DON’T LIKE, pay $50 for Xbox live, and find a used Forza disk for $40.
I’m not paying $340 to play a game I don’t like.
I wish i could rewind forza fanboy out of the comments, what i do not wish for though is a rewind feature in my racing sim, ok forza 2 was alright as a gt4 copy cat but since then forza has been pointless.
The reality is that Forza is a great game, yes GT is a better overall game but I love both for different reasons. I love being able to drive whatever I fancy when I feel like it. It’s kinda like the Ford vs Holden debate. I would never buy a Falcon/FPV over a Commodore/HSV but the the current crop of FPV’s are amazing looking cars that perform on par. It’s a matter of just personal preference.
AVAILABLE IN POLAND DLC NOW !!!!
WOW. I feel really bad for Kaz and PD right now, so much hate on GT5 for just money issues and other stuff. I don’t even see other games get this much hate ever from their DLCs…
Its the same with everything in Aus haha, its all overpriced compared to what it really is worth.
yeaaah, germany DLC gooooo
we even get the color for the xjr-9 with no name too.
Its up in Aus, but why the hell am I paying an extra $7 AU when our exchange rate with the US is nigh on equal. God I hate Aussie pricing for everything…
i know right THEY SCREWED US OVER!
I agree, uniformity is what’s required on pricing policy
thats total BS!! it costs like 10 dollars just for the cars and 7 for one damn track, GT5 SUCKS!
Im in Dublin just downloaded it. Its great and all but I am surprised there is not a garage icon in the speed test homepage. Unless I am very much mistaken does this mean that when we test a car if we want to try a new one we have to go back to the homepage, go to the garage and start the whole process again? If so that is quite annoying and a rather large oversight for PAID DLC content imho! Anyone else agree?
Yeah, that’s like the Practice Mode. I’ve always thought you should be able to change cars without going back to the main menu on it too.
it has always been like that for drifting and time trials too , I agree its irritating.
Norway is oki ;)
DLC is now in Europe as well :D at least in Finland
Finally. Just downloading here in Finland also!!!
uk is gooooooooooooooooooooo
Slovenia online!!
Up in the UK
Still no sign of it in the UK…
Scratch that
Yeah, it’s up in Poland :)
Polish always came back with repeated UPrisings! czesc!
I can confirm both are available for greece as well !
Stop getting so frustrated, it will come, sooner or later.
I, instead, can’t wait to get my REAL new car tomorrow morning… O_o
what car will it be?
Nothing very exciting… C3 Picasso …
`Australia is GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
its even more expensive than the website said…$6.95 for track pack….$9.95 for the cars,i cant get both now….grrr
Isss outt inn eUUUUUU
This is freaking me out. Hate to wait. I’m gonna eat sommething, otherwise am going nuts ://
The DLC’s are live in Denmark.
Thanks Buddy ;0)
Whoever said “money can’t buy you happiness” obviously never played Gran Turismo, still hoping to see a Reventón and at least one version of the Diablo, but with the Aventador and a Test Course–I can say I’m completely satisfied..
there is one Diablo already in GT5
I think he’s referring to a street legal version of the Diablo, not the NOMAD version.
there’s already a Diablo in gt5, the Nomad racing one, its awesome :-)
Yeah, I’d LOVE to see a stock Diablo in the Premium section…
still no eu update wht?
At least you don’t have to wait a whole week for the DLC like we had to in the US back in October.
I’m loving my new Aventador. I bought a 2nd one immediately and tuned it for Daytona! She’s hangs with the pack no problem but wow she eats up the racing hard tires quickly.
Where’s my pants and where’s my TV?!
you only need one of these to play GT5
How Hard is it to wait until the EU/Aus Store Updates… seriously
So HARD!! :P
if i’m wirght, ps store europe usually get updated at 18 CET.
Don’t think Kaz can decide over the PSStore.
so we just got to wait.
and don’t know what wirght mean
I think the EU and wherever else there’s no DLC there should be some kind of compensation seeing some have it and other’s don’t.
Dude, for real!?
It’s 24 hour you have to wait. Plus who ever promised you a world wide launch!?
And a little further up you wrote, that you don’t even want the DLC, you just buy it to support PD… which is just, weird?
I want 3 pence off the price or I will be disgruntled.
Gay NO GET DLC ! SO LONG Wait Damnit! U doing Kaz!?
What is the problem?
Tak kazi kedy to bude??? WE ARE WAITING!!!!!!!!!
Is it available in Australia yet? I was hoping it came out yesterday morning (18/1) because I’m on a holiday, but I’ll buy it when I come back! ;)
From the looks of it, it should be ready to download when you come back from your holiday!
…Maybe the day after you come back…
I doubt that very much, I’m coming back next week. Unless gt5 in Australia stuffs up!
Wish i could tune me jeep in battlefield 1943…it needs alot,id rather a shwimminwagon or however u say it
Hehe yeah Austin’s don’t quite cut the mustard eh! That’s a good idea, must assault my neighbours!
I’m still at work. Thank gawd. Judging by some of the frustration spilling off these pages if I was at home waiting for DLC I’d be assaulting my neighbours.
After reading the whole bloody thread and all the whinging I utterly pist my pants reading Austin Martin!
Hilarious typo!
Good assaulting or the bad kind?
PS3 is off now. That’s that.
hehe, I agree, why bother spending your hard earned anyway? We all want the classic tracks that should have been included at launch and for free, not some duded up test track that goes on for 130 miles.
Yep there sure is some amazing tracks missing, and the list is rather long for that.. so – Back to Shift2 and Mount Panarama 20 laps drive – Now that’s fun and quite dramatic :0)
What the actual f*** now this is pathetic STILL not in the PS store, and it’ll cost the UK/EU more than the US… This is a good way to annoy all customers outside the US for sure… 24 hours after the US get it they decide maybe to give it to the rest of the world, which account for more people combined than the US. Perhaps this should be included in a course of ‘how not to run a company’.
a bit over the top innit?
EU psn update is 1 day after US update, every week. and the GT packs are part of those updates. i dont get why ppl think it would be another story thistime :D
Probs, I was bored lol. I don’t even want the DLC, I’ll buy it to support PD and such for future content :P
well that’s just silly :-)
No such thing.. this has given me time to think.. The track is free online so why buy it?? This DLC is nothing special. I don’t have money to waste. But good luck to the ones that do.
IF i’m correct it will only be free online till the next update comes, then you are not allowed to join anymore.
Without the DLC, you don’t get to do the top speed tests; like 0-60 MPH/0-100 KM/H, 1000M Time, 10,000M Top speed, Etc. So THATS what you miss out on.
How much you wanna bet that the PS Store is going to be experience serious problems when all us Europeans are rushing to buy the DLC? God I hate the waiting!
or its just the 20 ppl who comment here :D i wanna try the aventador too but i can wait till the weekly PSN update. i allways thoght those updates are done close to midnight about 1 day after the US update.. but im not sure bcuz im not checking b4 midnight every week ^^
this is purelly stupid.
It will be available 16:00 +1GMT
In other words; in about 25 min..
What do you base that on??
Kaz’s twitter reply..
fair enough. I hope it proves true :)
Kaz’s tweet said it’d be 15:00 CET, which is GMT+1
Is this is true, then I’m going to go buy a shelf… and put it up!
Apparently it looks like it’s not right.
Yup, probably delayed like everything else..>.<
@TG1410 You’re right! =)
It’s ONLINE!
Everyone seems to be at the edge of their seat lol.
I’m sitting here with my ps3 and every 20 minutes since 15:00 i’m checking the store.
Ya I knew it – I should have been sleeping for 24 hours straight instead :P
Slovenia and UK no DLC.
greece no dlc 16:32
omg. guess again…
disregard that last comment :)
Still nothing her in Norway.
15:26 in Spain. No DLC
still nothing here in the uk :(
kaz fai uscire sto cavolo di DLC!!!
The new intro movie shows only one new track, Route X, does this mean that any more tracks we get will be classic ones? hope so, fingers crossed for Seattle and Midfield, just for starters :)
This is getting pretty f*****g annoying.
Not in Norway :(
AUSTIN MARTIN LOL….. haha as a Brit this is sooooooooooooooooo laughable HAHAHAH :-) it’s ASTON!!!
I LOL’d too…. East mistake but a Hell of a Difference!!! :D
Easy… *FAIL*
1500 CET and no DLC.
Am I the only one that would *LOVE* to see “Route X” as a new theme in the course maker?
no sir you are not ;)
Just checking, I hadn’t seen anyone else mention it yet. :)
I came home from work this morning, No DLC… I thought fair enough its early… give them time.
I sleep, wake up, make a cup of tea, watch the news, switch on PS3 and the DLC still isnt there… I know you guys in Japan will probably be going to bed now, but could you hire a night worker to just flick the switch for us lot in Europe please!
The Lambo is just plain NASTY. All you really need to do with it is add twin clutch and semi racing flywheel.
Excellent sounding and depending on the track, you may not need FC suspention. The Aventador is ALL THAT.
I find the Austin Martin a bit lesser car, at least in standard guise. It also gets better with addition of clutch plates and flywheel. However, despite its near 50/50 balance, it seems cllumsy. Bear in mind its only standard for both cars.
I like to see what a car does without adding parts first.
They could both use loss of weight, and perhaps the Austin can also get an engine one upgrade. Very good (IMHO) overall for both cars. Thanks PD. Now if we can just get Special Stage Route 11 in the next DLC……..Pretty Please????? XD
hmm maybe it’s a part of the SOPA protest :)
Hehe Quo.vladis – That’s a Good one M8
orly? it’s still 14:48 CET so why would it be available in europe? -.- still 12 mins to go! (at least)
The test track is even better then my expectation. PD here is the next feature I would like to see. I want to be able to load more then one car for a given track, up to 16 in time trial mode. This way I can go in the pit and switch car and save on some loading time.
15.42 in Denmark.
No sign of DLC
omg ppl DLC in Europe will be available at 15.00 CET
13:40 in Portugal, nothin yet… -.-‘
The track was good, the aventador doesnt inpresme it doesnt look any different than the other lanbos, the beattle was the best dlc car of this pack IMO, fully tuned it spins like crazy on turns!!
I know its a long shot but has anyone tried applying race mods from gt auto on to the new aston yet? I think its the first thing I’ll do when get dlc, aston make some gorgeous gt class racers so I feel its about time gt5 reflected this.
notta ina uk
So whats the dlc like, worth getting or not?
greece 15:36 no sign of dlc
Nothin yet in europe?
arrrrg, 26ars 75monas on planet Xorb, no sign of DLC yet. :-(
dani_corvette you mean 4 oclock
Only half an hour for DLC here in Spain/Europe
I really can’t wait, I so want to burn some gas down Route X :D
Need help please…. I have already buy Speed Test DLC, then download it, install it, buat I can’t find it in my game, where is it? Or I hace to wait? Can somebody tell me why? Thank you
You have to install it my friend. From the main menu, last button at your right.
there’s no list of purchased appear in download content button on main menu
DLC in Germany online ?
It’s 12:10am Thursday 19th, they said 18th but that didn’t happen…
Maybe your 19th is still their 18th. Ha.
@Panamera Don’t call people who’re buying the DLC idiots you idoit. So sad that some people are even holding themselves back from buying the DLC. Well, too bad you’re missing all the fun so HAHA… BTW. PD is not forcing you to buy their DLC so quit whining it’s SO annoying THAAAAAAANKSSSSS…
DOES CAPS HURT YOUR EARS TOO
…….and panamera isnt forcing you to read his whinging!!!!!
its so annoyig when others get annoyed at others being annoyed
I’ve just learned something new from PIGBOY today. *.*
I Think that, around 17:00 we should have the DLC in our stores. Maybe quicker but just to make sure.
Awesome carpack and track PD! This game is getting better and better and I loved it when it was first released back in 2010 but I can’t complain about all the new cool stuff being added to the game. =)
And to all you whiners who think the packs are too expensive or that it wasn’t the cars you wanted or it should have been in the first version of the game etc. : Don’t buy it. The game itself is huge and packed with content as it is.
I will buy everything being released to show my support to PD.
I agree. They buy other DLCs and they’re expensive like Shift 2’s DLC. HA! So sad. HAhaha… U_U Humph…
Nowadays $ 5.99 = € 4.68 :(
PD thinks that € and $ have the same exchange rate or what?
Or that the Eurozone is richer than the UK ??
The UK price is right, well theyve added about 5p to the price… the price of the track pack is only around £2.50 in the US… once you get it over here and charge the 20% tax (for invisible data) it takes it to around the price of the DLC… so we’re getting screwed by the tax
nothing here in greece
Hour and a half to 15.00 in Poland… Kaz said that 15.00 CET will be DLC for Europe, so…
15.00 CET so in Poland 16.00
Can one gives another player a car even if they are on different region disc?
no 1 players cannot gifts any DLC/stealth cars at all even using UPS
I’m gonna have to purchase atleast 3 more Aventadore’s in different colours and proberbly a couple of Aston’s. Hey, don’t see the Forza guys getting this excited about DLC do you….i wonder why ;)
Yo, Turbo-Kai, if your so calm about it why are you posting on here, just seeing if its out yet mmm? come on, your just a little excited arn’t you ;) lol
of course I am! But nevertheless I will play uncharted 2 online today…this is at the moment more enjoyable to me….
13:23 in Spain. No DLC.
15:00 for you man
They just won’t tell us when it’s coming out for the rest of us, I’d we know when it’s coming out we won’t complain as much about wanting to know when it’s coming. I just want to try the Aventador, Vantage and Beetle.
If* we know when
2152 on mars, no dlc.
LOL :D
DLC.. when can i get GT5 from stores that already has all of this updates???? I ask this because my PS3 cannot connect to internet access..
Buy the GT5 XL Edition, it includes Spec 2.0 ;)
16.20 in Russia. No DLC
guys, if sony delays it or something went wrong i am sure they will give us some free cars like they gave the US guys ;)
it’s not been delayed, the content goes live when the PSN updates in each region. I seem to remeber uk PSN updating on a Thursday, so sounds like we’ll be later than advertised, but no fault of pd. all on sony
funny to see how horny everyone is for this dlc… :-) like children before xmas..
i am currently at work…when i get home i’ll have a calm look at the psn store and decide whether to buy or not…
“patience is a virtue”
no hard feelings…
What time is it in Japan?
its 1am here in new zealand 19/1 still nothing
yea, Sony or PD clearly don’t give a toss about the fans in NZ…
Just kidding… proves that people should always read every post lol
THE DLC IS UP IN THE UK :-)
12.54 here in Warsaw and still no DLC… 15:00 CET mean GMT+1, right?
18 Jan.15:00 CET
I bought the car pack. Will probably get the track once I get another psn card, but to be honest I don’t see why everyone seems enamored by it. Daytona and Indy are boring enough to drive on and they are nowhere near 30km.
Well, yes.. the lighting is good and you can test various aspects of your vehicles.. but yet to see how that is implemented.
PSS*
Still not getting the DLC in EU -.-
No dlc is UK. 11.42 Am (GMT)
I’m from Italy and I just came home from school, I checked PST and still no DLC.
12;42 No dlc in poland
Any news of the DLC been release in the UK yet?
Its gonna be at 12.00 GMT i think…
lets hope so…
11:22 AM
PORTUGAL
…still no sign of the new DLC :/
Only just realised that new cars are already viewable in the dealership, love the matte colours for the Aventadore, love that car, in my opinion best Lambo since the Diablo, never really liked the Murcielago, too much Audi DNA. This DLC is a real good sign folks, strengthening licenses…new Aston, new Lambo. I would love to see a premium LP400S and a Diablo. I aint complaining tho , this game is killer and just keeps getting better….DLC where are you ???? UK aint got it yet!!!!!
I hope it comes out for you soon. :) You can make the Aventador a SV like machine and the Beetle a monster. ;)
FFS still not up, Sony are right cock-ups
Bug speedo reads 160-did 150mph. Maybe after breaking Herbie in more then 160 might be reached. Aventador time now. Mines already packing 895hp. Well here goes, signing off.
WHat a Laugh – snøft – still waiting for it in Denmark – Pretty little denmark – Sure sucks hehe to wait – sitting on the side seing the other children playing and laughing .. I’m crying of envy … SNøft – Ok I walk the dog AGAIN!!!
It will be worth the wait, trust me.
Thanks Lambo :0) just got home from a very long Dog walk, so there is someone in the House that is Happy hehe
– But i do trust you :0)
WHERE is the answer to the question we are all asking……TOP SPEED OF THE BEETLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
gawd guys,get on the bal………
Max PP to. These are very important questions. :)
145mph so far. Sure I can squeeze more out of Herbie though.
453 max pp so far, with max down force of course.
My brother got 153.7 mph
The beetle has a huge wing on the back……AWESOME.
i just do not understand the pricing: Car Pack 3 $5.99 USD / €5.99
Speed Test Course Pack $3.99 USD / €3.99
So let me recap, US DLC compared to EU is not only cheaper but also earlier available, not fair in my opinion
It has mentioned in other locations, possibly here, but it comes down to the different tax rules per region. EU is obviously in the Euro Zone so has a particular tax system, Australia has a different one again, the U.S/Canada is different agin. If you want it standardised, speak to your local politician.
The bug sounds like a harley with semi racing exhaust, wow. Love that car, and the look is perfect both modded and none mod. Great detail work on the tailpipe configuration too. :O
oh please stop teasing :P
I’m not. It sounds awesome with semi racing put on it. I couldn’t believe my ears.
But be warned though, this car has some maaaaaaajor turbo lag.
do you have a youtube account? Please upload a video of tuning the bug if you do ;)
and also one of the MINI Countryman and the Nissan Leaf while you’re at it, Pleas Please Please :)
I think updates come from PD but store is updated by Sony so unlikely dlc will come exactly 24hrs after update but I’m just speculating
11:20pm in NZ and still nothing, i’m going to bed, i’ll try in the morning
update should be soon. the 2.03 release was around this time yesterday
on the SSRX track, on the same staight as the start/finnish there is an overhead bridge. will it be drivable one day? I havnt had the chance to take a close look as I havent downloaded it yet and have just been watching youtube vids.
Kaz twitter-last message: @Kaz_Yamauchi – When will the new DLC be aviable in Europe, today or later on?
18 Jan.15:00 CET RT @ilmyyt:
Kudos to you. It’s 11:00 CET right now.
Wow, so a massive 27 hours after “release” we will get it in NZ. So, why don’t they just say, for all intents and purposes; “by the 19th”… PD, seriously?
What BS… so the US gets it like 24 hours before the EU… Everyone else pays more for it too, what rip-off artists.
not waiting up tonight for the dlc in Australia. i’ll get it in the morning. IMO the test course should of have been in gt5 from the beginning. i have been waiting over a year for this. next thing to include should be NOS
after first dlc pack always do same thing eu region wait one day other regions play one more day i waiting for aventador & vantage &countryman, route x not means to me, but i take because kaz say every two months one dlc but this time december & january two dlc come if we buy we see a lot of dlc i think. gt 5 forever!!!!!!!!!!!!
looking at the DLC cars in the dealership is making me so impatient! cant wait to give the Lambo and Aston a spin :)
The Aventador is nothing short of a canvas of which to display that of what has become the ultimate goal of lamborghin, a true ultimate supercari. This car is pure performance, and well balanced at that. It doesn’t just one thing well, it does them all. Acceleration, braking, cornering, power sliding with torque steer, it’s even decent on wet tracks. It’s a drivers car that allows you to get as much out of it as you put into it, meaning, it doesn’t drive itself. Loving this car right now on sport softs. Haven’t even tested SSRX yet. Maybe tomorrow I will.
^^It’s hard typing sometimes when you’re sleepy, sorry for the grammatical errors, going to bed now.:/
where the hell is the DLC… australia is getting a raw deal :(
that was meant for hairystig!!!!
what?
So what’s the crack then ppl when are we seeing the DLC in beautiful sunny Scotland i want the lambo sort it out.
brake early for the corners mun
so long as its available in the UK by the time I get home (5pm) then I’ll be a happy man, can not wait to rip up route X
ITS out in ASIA so we wont be long,this is new,just saw it.!!!!!!!!!!!1
thats Hong Kong/Singapore/Vietnam/Korea/China ect…
Not available in Spain 10:36 pm 18/1 -_-
Nothing Here in nz 10:25pm 18/1
when was the 2.03 available yesterday?
@ swiftwilly, in Europe, the DLC time didn’t match the patch time (9/9:30 AM CET for patch, it’s 10:30 AM and no DLC yet)
I believe the patch was released 10:30GMT in the PAL regions (Europe) yesterday.
I checked my PS Store 15 min ago, but nothing yet.
I doubt the time for release of the patch has anything to do with when SCEE will update the PS Store.
Time for some VW bug drags like back in the day Ohh yea got my bug in the low 12sec 1/4
not available in poland 10:17 morning 18/1
I’m only interested in new tracks, but ovals seem so boooooring… I’l give it a try online before purchasing, but as of now, I won’t be getting this.
Yeeeaaaah i gave the track a shot online and i think i’ll be giving it a miss. I’ll be all over the car pack though.
Not available in the UK what the hell? Sorry but this is BS….
And especially seeing we pay more than the US for both packs… Rip-off merchants.
not available in greece 11:02 morning 18/1
Does anyone know a time for the dlc to come out in aus?
I would like to ask a question.I used to be playing on a disc that is not the same region as my console & account, so i can’t buy the DLC cars & tracks. I have since switched to all common region code but of course all my cars from the other region code disc doesn’t show up. It is possible to give all the cars to a friend, after that delete all my previous region code data, & have him to send me back all my cars & i download them into my current garage. Is it possible? Becoz i do have some special cars in that region code games that i want it in the current region code that i am on. Does it work that way?
i had your same problem.I recieved GT5 as a present,it was U.S. and i got to 40/40 with 1000 cars,all race cars,but when DLC came out it wouldnt work so i got a AU/EU disk and started again but shared my good cars on my twogramtroutman I.D. and also sent tickets.
add me if you want some tickets
pigboy_05
is it out in oz yet???
not yet in AUS been waiting all day . . . WTF
Chinese for delays again flying over europe
seen people complaining about the price differences. I was too, so I called PSN support. apparently it is because of tax. that is why we get charge so much more…
What country you live in. In NZ sales tax is 15% but they are selling the DLC at 35% more than the price it should be.. They are just ripping off smaller markets.
NZ price is a joke… i dont think i can afford to buy cars at this rate
am in uk. never said it was accurate, just that’s what sony told.me. sounds like BS to me, but there’s nowt we can do, other than start a new NA account and buy a us disc
Come on ppl! Take the real “FAST” cars on the speedtest, i mean those ultra cars like a midget or old fiat 500 xD
is it just like previous car packs,soon as we install dlc we got cars in car delivery :) ?
Still no download DLC! damn im wait i want now!
just remember the last DLC came to 1 region first,then a week later for the U.S……..maybe were getting payback from some deranged person.its not me either
I’m sure someone shares my opinion that drag racing in a video game is pointless and will not be buying the test course.
Cannot wait for the Aventador in Australia though, so awesome. I’ve been staring at it in the dealership for a good hour now, that matte white paint is fantastic.
A test course does not mean drag racing, its a ‘test’ course.
You can drag race on it online..
I just don’t want to spend $4.00 just to see how fast my virtual car can go in GT5’s version of reality
ur cheap!
Yep… Invicta you cheap bugger, hahahaha! Go buy a beer with your 4 dollars and loosen up.
plis somebody can help me!!?? Need know if can use in EU the content of my American PSN account, i cant wait more!! Need drive the Aventador NOW!!! xD
Only if you have a U.S. disk.The disk code starts with BCUS.The credit card will only work if its from the same counrty as there is no alternative when you register the credit card on your PS3..Buy U.S. psn card online
waiting,waiting…….
waiting, waiting, waiting some more…….
But in my US PSN account i can activate the pack 2 of cars and this pack was purchased in EU Store for my EU disc, but instead, the circuit pack and paint dont let me : /
Maybe the pack 3 yes and the Route X no….
still ball all here in the uk, true its still early it would be nice to wake up in the god forsaken hell hole and there be some joy
Im soooooo lucky my ancestors were sent as punishment to sunny Australia if thats how you describe your homeland :)
what can I say todays a good day, and I (and many like me) wish my ancestors were sent to Oz or started from scratch to go to the US… Youre lucky dude
The UK is the only 3rd world country where you can drink the water haha
He might have a U.S. account…..i have a U.S. account because i had too after learning my first GT5 disk was a region U.S….
This Crazy i sore a guy frm new zealand hosting a room with the new track but nz or oz havnt got it yet
still nothing in nz
it said that it will be ready for download on the 18th, well there is only 4 hours left till the 19th
Still nada in Oz
anyone notice that the load times are not as fast as before the update? I get a black screen with a small gt5 logo in the bottom right and a few seconds longer load now before entering races… anyone else notice some choppiness in the route x replays? maybe just me…
I have only experienced the black screen with the logo, and sometimes it doesn’t even finish loading. Even since Spec 2.0. :/
But it happens rarely to me now since the last update.
Hey guys, if i buy the pack 3 of cars and the X route from my American PSN account can use the content in EU??
Looooooooove Route X and the Speed tests. Just spent the last 3.5hrs trying to get my ’07 Mustang into the 10s in the 1/4 mile.
Mission Accomplished: 10.990 @ over 130mph. Sad part is it got obliterated by a Veyron 5min later.
Now if we can only get a Pony Pack featuring the ’12 Boss 302 and the 200mph+ ’13 GT500.
still not in eu store here in holland
On EU store yet? JEBUS CHRIST I’m waiting along with everyone in the EU. Needless to say a drove online, pretty fun I have to admit.
Spent over an hour with friends running random cars on the new track. Its alot of fun and with the day night cycle has to be one of the best looking tracks on the whole game. The new car pack is awsome as well, 202hp bug with chrome bumpers removed and a wing. I love it.
Is it out on Asia PSN Store?
I appreciate the content they give us to keep the game fresh. But in all honesty, did we really need an 18 mile long oval? It’s such a waste in my opinion. The Speed test is great. I truly love this feature. But an 18 mile oval is so much wasted space. I just did a few laps in various cars thinking to myself, “What the hell is the point in this?”.
You’ll see the point when you do an arcade race in X2010’s. Talk about a white-knuckle ride! 300mph bump drafting.
So is it only a track made for the X2010/2011? as they seem to be the only cars people seem to rave on about with this track… I would love to join in the convo about how the track is, but being in the UK we have to wait till last like good little mugs while paying more for it… Ahhh the system works!
@ AJVH
I kinda agree. My understanding of a test track is. Its not just about speed. Its supposed to be a place to test cars. All aspects of cars. When i saw they added a G-Force reading i was hoping it wouldn’t just be an oval. Oh well. Kinda makes the G-force thing useless imo. I personally would’ve had the one long straight. So u can drag race and do the tests. Then maybe a complex set of corners with varying degrees of tightness and camber working your way back to the top of the straight. Then u can see how many G’s u can pull through the corners. And set up cars. Testing. It would be much more fun weaving in and out of the satelite dishes and wind turbines instead of another long ass straight.
New track is great an all but for $4 its a massive rip off, guys in Europe have it worst paying the same but in euro……. they made half a track, mirrored it and bam 4 bux really ?…………. PD/Sony will keep pushing it till we push back……..this track should have clearly come in DLC 3 pack……. that said, cool looking track…but its not $4 cool…….lol
Both side’s of the track are different, what are you talking about? One side has the tunnel and the other has a hill.
Futher to that it’s cost of 2 games at the arcade where you are time limited anyways. At the end of the day there is no requirement to purchase this…..just sayin
What gets me isn’t that it’s just an oval or anything, but the fact that you pay money for a speed test feature previously included in past GT games out of the box. I hope taking features away, and then charging for them later doesn’t become the norm. Up until now I was never a “should’ve been included in the game in the first place” kind of guy, but this one bugs me a little, I have to admit. This was something that I would have expected as a free update feature, not pay DLC.
I agree NA, this should have been included in any one of the previous updates. Lets hope with GT6 that the lessons learned from GT5 are applied in the best possible way
Well, eat McDonalds meal for lunch or stay home drink some water and eat left over food from yesterday AND buy a cool GT5 DLC track that I can enjoy for days, weeks or most likely months! Hmmmm what to choose? The DLC of course!!!!
My point exactly NA….. were paying more for them to add things that was in previous games….. i just think PD is exploiting DLC’s at this point
dont b cheap~ is either u buy or dont buy~ no buddy is forcing u anyway~
Good Grief. The horse is dead, quit beeting it. We all know this should’ve been there day one but at least it’s massively longer and has night mode.
It should have been included for free in the latest update; it’s a bloody oval for smegs sake. £4 is taking the piss, when the game is £14.99 new from Amazon right now.
nearly $20 NZ for both. are you serious? at this rate we’d have paid 2x the cost of the actual game for a few more cars.
i cant afford this unless they start selling the cars single on their own. like EVERY OTHER GAME.
Around $14 in Australia for both…U.S. v AU dollar is the same value give or take a few cents
€1 is NOT the same as $1.
Why does the pound get an exchange rate value yet the EU countries must pay more than the US?
How the exchange rate SHOULD work
£1 = $1.5
£1 = €1.2
How the actually works
“Hey Barry, just swap those dollar and euro signs for pound ones, I cant be arsed doing the math”
I’d created my very own SV version of the Aventador. Both normal and tuned. It rocks and so does the other cars. :D
Love the Aventador…pulls so hard. The beetle is pretty sweet to, able to remove the bumpers and ad a huge rear wing but could use more power.
I tuned the Beetle to over 200HP with a turbocharger.
@ Wilkinism…like I said, could use more power!
33% through update and 340mins to go :(
I just bought the car pack before shutting down the PS3 for the day…had totally forgot about the track! I guess that will be a purchase for tomorrow. I bet Kaz and PD are making bank with these DLCs!!!
yeah man. happily ripping everyone off. and these idiots are buying it. they’d be forced to make it more realistic and sell the cars as single car sales instead ofpacks if no one bought them
Gotta say guys that it’s not Kaz and PD that are making setting the pricing this is Sony, you need to air your grievances with them.
i have nothing against them.
they are making amazing cars avaiable to us. but its not going to be available really if we cant afford it
are there quarter mile times now? and is there online quarter mile drag racing?
yes but no online drag racing mode
thanks.. happy and sad at the same time.. what makes it so hard to put 2 cars in the same track and race in a straight line? this is a serious question
not very hard. get two controllers, use your two hands. put in auto and go
Cool track, can’t get my cars to go faster than 300 MPH :(
when will it be available in australia? will we have to wait untill tomorrow?
I see the track in my near future, but I think I’ll hold off on getting the cars for now. The Lambo and Aston look great but idk if they are worth 6 dollars.
I bought both packs loving the Aventador and the new track haven’t tried the Beetle and Leaf yet but i’m sure there pretty sweet.
1:52. am. just play on the routeX track, buying this later today, Absolutely beautfull, Veyron tops..247Mph.and it`s not modified, as plan as plan can be, you also can race to or free run, with others, one thing i hope is there is weatherlike the rain, would be good, there`s day and night transitions. but rain would be, good. oh well late. just 14 hour to go, then Psn Updated 16:00pm. XD
hehe lol, were you in my room by any chance. it was called Route X!!!!!!!!!!!!
i was! Didn’t feel like sleeping tho >.<
I bet the lobby is still open after ive sleept ^^)
My Veyron (absolutely stock, with stock, sports tires) topped at 243 mph. It was at the very top of its 7th gear and it just couldn’t do any more. Did you change the gear ratios on yours or something?
What ever happened to the nsx concept that was in the video I want the car cuz it looks awsomw
They never said it will be in game…
understandable…
the FT-86 Concept II had a video made for it months before we actually got it. U never know it might make an appearance
SWEET!!
For the first time, GameStop actually didn’t try to rip me off and, in fact, got me a good deal on a PSN card. I used to buy them at Amazon when they were priced the same as they cost (ex: 20 buck for$20 card, etc), but now Amazon, shipping, etc. which is totally stupid. GameStop, to my surprise, charged me exactly the amount of the card. 3rd batch of GT5 DLC, here I come!!!
when i do a google search for psn cards i go to the ads on the right hand side of the webpage.Not every site has every region card but ive always found what ive been looking for-$20 U.S. card & $20 Australian card.
Just Tried it out, frooze on 1st lap, ps3 crashed and corrupted my game save. Many thanks sony!!! Everything lost, good job I have a back up from before xmas, but come on this is a joke I have lost 3 20 million credit cars, Thanks
Thanks for the tip! Everyone, we should backup our game saves before buying DLC/update. Sorry that this happened to you, though!!
Did that early morning on the 18th, wheww. Almost forgot too. Has been common practice for me before most updates and installing DLC.
They really need to sell cars on as single cars instead of packs, like all other games do.
i want the GTR and Aventador, but not a nissan leaf.
silly.
you know why they dont do it? because then no one else would pay to have a mini cooper S which is exactly like the one already in the game only with like 6 more HP.
whyyyyyyyyy even bother.
but the new track is absolutely awesome! best thing they could’ve added to the game
@Panamera
The new cooper isn’t “exactly like the one allready in the game”. It’s a larger, heavier version, with a much different body than the other ’11 Cooper S. PD probably thought the Cooper fans would appreciate it.
@NA
i meant the cooper S ’11 in car pack 2.
this one is the countryman yeah
Ahhh, I see. That one i’ll give you. I could pretty much do without the one from pack 2.
dont b cheap~ just get it all already!!
Yea, just buy it, the leaf and the mini are fun to drive if you try ’em out.
Both the Mini Cooper and Nissan Leaf are fun. You’ll like them too if you give them a chance.
Route X…no words can describe a beautifully done course with a massive straight.
I hit 295 mph while bump drafting with my brother in my new Jaguar XJR-9 LM Racecar!!!
The Aventador is quite simply, awesome. It alone justifies buying this DLC.
Hell yes!
V12 Vantange in Meteorite Silver :) yum……….
WYY ARE WEE LAST -_-
300mph clubs FTW!
For everyone who is asking that they can race online if they didnt pay for it, you can. they said it in the article.
YES you can! (still i´m going to buy it so…)
C’mon get this on EU psn already. Everyone is asleep here except us GT’ers now bring it.
The price of europe is the same of América?
Get smart..”…………
It is already available in Brazil. All you need to do is to use the search tool in PStore to find. Bought both (car pack and track) from there.
Hope it can help brazilians.
Can’t get this until Sunday. On holidays
it wont let u race on dlc tracks online unless u buy it now after update 2.02 or 2.01
I´m playing on Race X now and i haven´t it till tomorrow (well today but at 17:00). I am in europe but i found one guy from US hosting a room and i entered and then he went off and i am still there (2 hrs lol).
You can race online if other guy have it and you don´t. CONFIRMED!!!
I´m going to buy it because it is beautiful. The day/night transitions is amazing and looks so real…just wow.
Amazing job by PD!!!
“Note that you can still experience the Route X test course if you join an online race being held at the circuit.”
Then the OP is wrong. Can you now or can you not ???
interesting point you made. I wonder if anyone else noticed this. Glad you pointed that out. The article says you can though. Looks like someone need to edit that post.
YES YOU CAN!!
still waiting for update to finish, darn my inferior internet connection :\
i no your pian…it must of took me a whole 3 mins to download
I’d love to get the speed pack, but my friend is borrowing my game :(
lol sorry to hear that bro. tell your friend to get XL since it came out today.
Borrowing…..hahahahaha……you have lost your copy of GT5 brah. I DO NOT lend GT5 period. Friend or no friend.
No you can’t it unlocks as soon as you install the DLC supposedly although cars can be traded
Wait, is this the first time a car pack has cars that are also available for people who don’t buy the pack?
Can’t we just buy the cars in the car pack with our Cr?
I am 99% sure no.
You HAVE to buy the DLC.
You have to buy the pack to activate it in the game. It will show up but you won’t be able to buy it. The only reason they show up in the showrooms is so that you can buy another copy of the car in the game with game Cr.
I’m gonna be the first to read the full question. Yes you will be able to buy all cars that you could buy before. Just not as Premiums.
Here at work still!! :/
Route X has day and night time driving. Couldn’t add weather change during the arcade run I did. It’s an oval track :) Took me 4.5 mins to complete a lap using my Black Edition GT-R from a stand still O.o
It’s a bummer that there isn’t weather for it. I’m so glad it’s a time changing track, at least.
Im from UK but cant wait till after college tomoz, hell ye that lambo looks like a stunner pic, congrats to the photographer.
Still not finished updating because of this ridiculous internet connection -____-
any of you guys know if Route X is available online?
Yup, it is! Got 570 with the X2011!
Somebody make a video. I want to see the whole track and if there are any track variations.
It’s just a flat straight on one side and the other side has elevation changes and that’s really it.
So tempted to buy the new DLC. I bought the first lot (as a bundle) but passed on the second lot and I’m passing on the third lot. It’s going to rack up some serious expense; £3 here, £5 there. I’d like to support PD but I feel that they will ultimately package up GT5 DLC at a reduced bundle price and all this content will make it to GT5 regardless.
Each micro-transaction seems fair for the quality of the work but I don’t want to end up spending £100 on all this stuff.
*make it to GT6
if you dont want to pay $5 there isnt much chance of spending $100 is there….than a fish’s
I’ve been meaning to buy the DLC, but I never did. All these extra packs and stuff don’t quite grab me. The pack with the Golf R and the Scirocco almost got me, but so little cars. They need to create a big pack, with let’s say, 10 new cars, for a decent price. That’ll go well rather than little bits.
Just my opinion though. I would prefer a main meal rather than hors d’oeuvre.
dont b cheap~ show ur support and enjoy the game
How about you demand some value for money, or do your parents foot the bill for you? GT5 is currently £14.99 on Amazon; the DLC released so far costs more than that in total, and offers so little. I support the game wholeheartedly, but these DLC packages are way too overpriced for what you get.
Yea you complain. In my country the Paint pack was more like 20-30 DDK.
The TC Car pack was 60 DDK. So dont complain!
Wish my PS3 didnt YLOD last week :(
I’ve been playing for over an hour now :p
So very appreciative that this game is constantly evolving & getting better & better every month!
Agreed
Happy slaves, well and truly fooled!
finally the test track….prayers have been awnsered. let the 300mphclubs from gt4 (excluding using the x2010/11) start all over…:D
just got mine time for some speed test i am so happy now
383 km/h with the Aventador! Speed Test is amazing! 0-100 in 2.196!!! Thanks PD!!!
can u play Speed Test online with more players? something like drag race?
Yes, the Route X Oval is also available in Arcade Mode and Online.
ha i got 405kph and 1.95 fully tuned
Off to play!!!
I’ll have one in an hour
The Leaf is awsome just like I thought it would be
hahaha I bet
smoke some leaf…..big FWD burnouts….any tunes for the leaf yet….?
@PIGBOY
Sweet Leaf by Black Sabbath
Is there a bundle for both?
Unfortunately, no.
It makes no sense there isn’t a bundle. Somebody asleep at the wheel again.
KAZ!!!!!!!!!! Wake up :)
Huh, what .. where am I?
@tube chaser:
You finally reached the end of one of those 12 KM straights on Route X. Scenery looks different, Huh?
trk, for crying out loud. It’s Sony’s decision.
jackhole, just trying to make light of the situation. But seriously there should be a bundle to discount both. Just like the last one. And this is Kaz’s game and he should have not let this happen. GT5 is turning into a money grubbing meanie. :)
money grabbing meanie that has given us constant updates and extra events for free and even cars for free. But i do agree a bundle would be easier. Or have the option of both bundle and separate releases. like they did with DLC 1.
yeeeeeees
This wins
Show time!!
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
aLREADY BOUGHT UM
Any extra that came with the buy like the NSC
@eddieg No NSX Concept
@chimuel Because the NSX Concept still don’t have any interior, if you go check out the actual car it’s blacked out
Get it got it good
@ gtpdz
Toyota FT-86 Concept II Has no interior. They released that. Another example is the Nissan GTR Tokyo show car. available since day one. Some concepts are made of clay and therefore have no interior. Or i think thats the case with those 3.
