18 hours of the le mans 24 hour race I just lost because of the DLC... all because I wanted to try the DLC on my second offline user thinking I could restore the game save after buying the DLC.

I dont feel like trying the DLC anymore :indiff: or playing GT5 for that matter...
 
No, I have no problem with *duping*, I am just curios can you really GIFT any of the new to content to anyone?

I didn't try with my DLC content to be honest, but someone said earlier that none of this DLC items can't actually be gifted.

And I perfectly understand why - if not, PD is just protecting their work and income - but I guess many people will become very, very vocal because they can't dupe anything. Their problem really, I support PD getting as much money as they can from this.

I'm with you on that. PD should really need to make some (more?) money from this GT5 thingy they so heavily invested in... Remember, no PD, no GT6.

I suspect the 5 colors of the new range of suits and helmets (untamed, Desert camo etc) should be giftable since we are already winning the other colors from the seasonals. Just a hunch. If only someone can confirm it, thanks a lot !

I am VERY curious to see how Kaz will respond to this launch (debacle?)... :)
 
I have US PSN account(save game is on this account)

GT5 disc is Asia region 3.

If I buy the DLC from US PSN. Will I get the DLC?

Yep - as stated a few posts above - it is NOT REGION LOCKED, but ACCOUNT LOCKED.

Which is crap!!! :banghead::banghead:
 
Paints are one use only AND non giftable , so no dlc paint duping.

Use those chromes wisely........which is even more of a reason to be annoyed with the lack of a full paint preview mode.

What part of the second offline account I use for restarting solo offline games didnt you understant? (impossible to dupe if I dont have online on that account)

Do you realize that it is not fair? they should have at least warned the users... I just lost 18 hours of the 24 hour race (le mans) because I was so eagar to try the DLC on my Offline user... they could have warned us... now Im too scared to restore my save (into 18 hours of le mans) and loose the DLC
 
Its both. Account & Region locked.

Heh there is so much fuss about this - not sure anymore what is true and what not.
This whole DLC is just becoming a pain. I know that i have my main PSN account registered to a country where no PSN Store - it is in the EU btw.. I do play GT5 on this account but now i will not dl the DLC as i will not be able to play it on my main PSN account. Which makes me wanna cry!!!!
 
I've got the DLC, and when you buy it, it will not appear on the downloaded content list. The buy wouldn't even change in 'download', but will still be 'buy'. So when you want to download the DLC twice, you have to buy it twice.

It seems to me that the rendering of the two DLC tracks is minor to the already existing ones. The lines in Spa are a little less sharp. Nevertheless both Spa and Kartspace are fun tracks.

About the cars: For me the Nissan GT-R R35 really stands out. It's a great car to drive, with a good pp rate. Also the paintwork is beautiful.
The Prius and the CR-Z are really boring. The're slow, and the Prius doesn't have gears.

Realy? And what about the users that have a PSN Account registered to a country where no PSN Store is and played the whole game on that account?? Should they just go and f.u..k themselvs??? I mean this just realy sucks!!!! PD just made a very bad decision in doing this.
They will loose many possible DLC buyers as i for sure will not buy this and as many others will not buy this as well.
 
I will wait until PD clears these stupid locks or at least gives an option to select the account which you want to use the DLC(region free).

amar... I am Slovak and SK Store doesn't exist. So I MUST buy DLC from my second accoun!! So, tell me, how I must to buy DLC, would working on my Slovak PSN account? How?

vasho: som s tebou / I am with you :D
 
So has anyone downloaded it on their main account and seen if it would work on their second account? I got a feeling (Or just hoping) it might work that way. :nervous:
 
I'm confused.

I just bought the complete pack via Buy Now on the PSN store, it's said that the purchase was confirmed, but I can't find the download anywhere for it. Does it automatically install on my save or something?

I have asia account and play on this account. My disc is R2. Tried the course pack and it does not show up.

I'm not going to cry but it is annoying. If i change to R3 disc, i'll have dlc but have to start over. If i buy again via EU account, i'll have dlc but have to start over too. This is the first game i've come across that does this.

PD sucks. đź‘Ž
 
bothh tracks yeh. alot of online lobbys already using it and those that do not have dlc can play the track right away. bit unfair for those that bought it dont you think?

Go to the DLC button at the start screen on GT5 (on the right)

The spec 2.0 included the DLC. You need to buy it to unlock it then go onto GT5 to install it. It's in on of the links provided in the OP. đź‘Ť

I really understand you guys, I am lucky because my country - Croatia - have a PSN store.

Also, I presume you just have to be patient. Some solution will have to emerge, because many people will be mad because of this.

I can understand why they've imposed limits to DLC-sharing but I also understand you. I didn't mean anything bad for anyone who can't access the content - I understand your issues completely - I was just saying that I support PD in their decision to prevent duping of DLC.

I hope you understand. You have my full support for getting DLC in your countries đź‘Ťđź‘Ť

Ah yeah, I got it now, got worried that I made a redundant purchase then! Thanks to you and cornappeltje for the heads up. đź‘Ť
