I know it's been discussed at length, but I'm getting desperate.. Does anyone have any ideas on how someone can obtain the Motegi track pack other than purchasing it on the PlayStation Store? Is there a way to get a DLC code for it somewhere else? If we can't figure out a way to do this, we have no choice but to disallow Motegi (and all DLC tracks) until the PlayStation Store puts them back up for sale. :irked:

I checked , today , at Game Stop and they don't list them either. They used to but had no explanation to why they weren't avalible.
I did purchase codes for those tracks for a couple of snails at Game Stop before so...........:confused:

http://blog.us.playstation.com/2012/11/20/playstation-store-update-266/#comment-783341 looks like they have at least acknowledged the issue and hope to have it resolved soon. Looks like no TRM this week:(
 
Hey guys. Are you doing any extra racing during the holiday break? Sundays are tough for me, but I should have time Fri and Saturday this week and I need to sharpen my skills.

Hey 88GTA,

Not sure if you got an answer or not, but we have a full slate of racing during the week. Just post in the approptiate thread and the host will take care of setting you up 👍

Cheers,

kcheeb
 
I'd like to request to join this.

Hey Quetzal KnightI,

Thanks for joining S.N.A.I.L. 👍

Please read the following:

We run a clean league by enforcing the S.N.A.I.L. OLR and we expect all of our drivers to know and follow The Good Racecraft Guide.
Please become versed in both.

Follow These Steps:
1. I add you to the drivers list as a New S.N.A.I.L.
2. You run the Time Trial.
3. You Private Message my GTPlanet account with your time from the time trial (no Sunday racing until this is completed).
4. I assign you to the appropriate Division, to give you the best racing possible.
5. A PSN friend request will be sent from the appropriate SNAIL_Division1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 account. That is where you race on Sunday night.
6. You drive fast and clean on Sunday :)

The first post has all the rules and regulations for S.N.A.I.L. It is the first place you need to check if you have a question. If it's not answered there, feel free to post your question on the thread.

The second post has the current race lineup for Sunday and is updated weekly.

If you have a preference for car/wheel colour and racing number, post your choices in this thread.
To avoid duplication, the currently claimed combinations can be found here.

During the week we run a number of different events, we encourage all S.N.A.I.L.s to join as many as possible.

Welcome aboard and enjoy :)

Could you possibly recomend it to a friend by going back into your purchases. It worked when the GT-R wasn't showing up for Eu players but was elsewhere.

Btw Terry (Tez) you have Platos number thought you didn't like him :sly:.
 
Thanks exo, once i get done with the tuner races I'll be running some ideas. I like the way that cien race car looks but its 560k over 5 million =( I never ran it though.

No, I have Greg Moore's number...big difference :lol:
 
I hate to announce it, but I've been going through a hard time recently and I just can't commit to snail as much as should. I'm not quitting, at least not permanently, but I feel my fellow snails deserve a higher level of commitment than I can provide right now.

Hopefully I can come back before Christmas. Until then snail on.

This too shall pass... Good luck in the Reel Werld and we'll hold a place on the grid for ya!

Doubt it will help (since am in england) but my local "game" store is selling all the seperate DLC content for gt5 (car packs and course packs including motegi & spa etc.) on the shelves along with all other ps3 stuff. The course packs £3.79, car packs £2 something..... I haven't had time to look on their website yet to see if its there but if it is maybe its possible to purchase the tracks even from your side of the pond?

Thanks for the link. At least they know there's any issue. But as we all know, Sony/PD knowing there's an issue and actually doing something about it are two entirely different things. :ouch:

Thanks, but I'm pretty sure that the DLC codes for the European PlayStation Store don't work on the US PlayStation Store, and vice versa. If anyone knows differently, please speak up. Otherwise, Motegi has got to go (which is a shame because that combo was insanely fun :()
 
A few weeks back I opened a EU account and it allowed me to download from their store a game that was not available in the US store!

Okay, but you had to set up an entirely different PSN ID to do that right? Just want to confirm that you weren't simply able to switch your Oshawa-Joe PSN ID to an EU account for example. I want to explore all option to allow access to Motegi, but we can't ask anyone to create an all new account and start their GT5 game from scratch.

EDIT:

When I use my EU account I can see Montegi, select it and go to check out.

So basically, EU gets the new GT5 Academy Edition with all the new bonus content AND they can still buy it via their PlayStation Store as well.

While here in the US, we not only don't get GT5 Academy Edition, but we get the DLC removed from our PlayStation Store. Anything wrong with this picture?
 
I created a new psn id under UK and the game is playable with my main account. Not sure if tracks would work - can't test as I already have all dlc.

Takes only a few minutes to make a new account.

Hmm.. You're making this sound much more plausible.. I'm going to try to create an EU account right now..
 
I was just running cars on GP/F, you beat me too it haha. dammitt. Well played, haha. Back to the drawing board. Great minds think alike, and a very good pick. =)
 
DLC is locked to a specific version of the game. If it's purchased from the European store, it will only work with a European version of the game. There have been many individuals that have complained about this after they made a purchase from another regions store only to find out that their new DLC purchase would not be compatiable with their version of the game.

I don't have any personal experience with this, but I have spoken, through message boards and game chat, with more than a few individuals that can confirm this.
