DLC release discussion (Some note in first post)

[ghostrider135]

That's a real shame as I was looking forward to some rally car time trials around that. Although this isn't the first time a track has been restricted - anyone remember the Pod track in GT 2001 Concept Tokyo. We just hadn't paid extra for that one though and I'm not a fan of Karts.

But the pod track on concept we didn't have to pay extra for that's what is so annoying, Yes its very nice to have Spa "FINALLY" but when am I ever going to use the Kart track(s), I like karting in real life not so much on GT5.

I want to buy the DLC but seems overpriced for only one track (don't care for go karts). Also about the cars are any of these in the game already? If so are the DLC versions just a bit different with paint jobs?

Thanks

My advice don't buy the DLC until PD realize how Pee'd off the community is about their frankly idiotic decisions and do something about it, On a side note the DLC Prius handles like a dream.

Its the first time I pay for a DLC that I can only use on one user in my PS3... I have two users - one with PSN account and one without for offline racing and doing careers for the second time (when the game is worth it)

Haha LMAO at you, your really angry arn't you LOL

So I already bought it how do I use it? click the DLC button at GT home screen? it said No purchased content found? wth

 

[PR1VATEJ0KER]

I have a PS3 and my little brother has a ps3.
Will I only be able to use the dlc in MY name on ONE ps3?

I'm guessing your car at the 2nd account should be its ORIGINAL color, not the new DLC color. Oh please confirm this.... I'm lovin it....

I want to know that too! If it's still the DLC color there would at least be one way to paint multiple cars in the same color, even if it isn't "ideal".

 

[dr3w]

I just checked my GT5 disc case, it' US one, and I'm in Australia. I'm ****ked now right

since it unlocks the dlc on my account, can i give a friend my email and password, he owns a gt5 region 1 disk *matches my account* he purchases the DLC on his ps3 but using my account, then I open my account on my ps3, will it be there ?

I must say Kart Space track as crazy as it looks actually feels quite realistic for a indoor kart track, it's great.

No, it's not a real DLC, just some type of unlock for 1 account (not tradeable & game sharing don't work as well).

EA rip-off tactics reached the PD headquarters.

1+ for the X2011 skin. And it are a few more bhp faster then the X2010. The neew indoors gokart track are really funny to drive on. A true good purchase!

hmm well I'm interested in Spa and just notice its only £3.19. Are any of the cars in the dlc not in the game already (haven't played it for awhile).

exactly, he will purchase the DLC using MY ACCOUNT, and as you said, ACCOUNT LOCKED, so we will be doing nothing wrong, what do you think ?

 

[rottenatomy]

South America anyone?

 

[ghostrider135]

All the cars in the DLC are basically racing versions of cars already in the game so ill let you make your own mind up on that mate.

 

[vasho]

exactly, he will purchase the DLC using MY ACCOUNT, and as you said, ACCOUNT LOCKED, so we will be doing nothing wrong, what do you think ?

But when he logs in with his account he will not be able to use it. That is what he meant - or at least that is how i understand the whole situation.

So dumb. EA "rip-off" tactics is DLC that's on the disc. PD did it through an update, one that included more changes than people will ever know, including me.

I bought the DLC today and overall , i liked it , good cars , and a couple of new tracks for the price is i think okay. I don't paint my cars so i don't really care about the paint chips.

I have a question regarding Spa , any of you know if there is a time change version ? I am currently hosting a room with this track selected and i can't change time , only weather

 

[Stavelot]

No time change for Spa

 

[Waheed]

yah, he will not log in using his account, the point is ME opening my account and finding the content is unlocked, that would save me another GT5 copy

Only weather.

As far as I see, nope, no 24hr version of it exists 👎.

 

[yoman297]

The big question about the NA delay: Why?

 

[PR1VATEJ0KER]

The dlc can only be used by ONE user on ONE PS3?
Is this correct?

 

[Dazi]

👎 i thought we could get a seasonal endurance race or something for this track . It is 7km long , so it would be nice if it had time change

 

[okami11408]

I have US PSN account(my save game is in this account)

My GT5 disc is Asia region 3.

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

From what I can work out your 100% correct sorry to say.

 

[ZeGermanBastorD]

If "your friend" will purchase the DLC for you & he buy the DLC with your account (login details required) on a PSN store from the same region as your game, and your game & your PSN account is (R1, R2, R3,...), then it will work. 👍

But "your friend" will not get the DLC on his account as well (like Stealth & Chromeline cars). He have to purchase it separately for his account. And you know, you can't be connected to the PSN with the same account at the same time from 2 different PS3's (if you thought about playing online with the same account).

I think there will be plenty seasonals and time trials on there. The penalties for four wheels on curbs / astroturf are stiff as, even on weak.

Good question as to whether it's locked to one PS3 too, or whether you can get it again (or have it already?) on another PS3, but it's definitely locked to one PSN ID.
