DLC release discussion (Some note in first post)

[Strittan]

I just had a thought, so bear with me. Can't PD just re-code the unlock so the cars are available as RMs in GTAuto and make the DLC paints reusable? And can't Sony just delete the current DLC off the PSN Store so PD can re-code it so that it would be available across multiple accounts? It shouldn't be too hard. I'm ticked right now. Screw Sony for being greedy and screw PD for taking Sony's crap!
🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

Wow. You sir, seem to have some major problems. 👎

 

[Izain]

Wait so we can't RM cars? (Like use a R34 Skyline and take it to GT Auto and add the RM kit?) *facepalm*

Where ya been, Crash? There are only an handful of cars that can be RM to begin with. And all the new DLC cars ARE just RM cars IN CASE NO ONE HAS NOTICED. They didn't give us the option, they just did it for us and charged.

Personal opinion SONY should cut their losses, Reimburse the people who payed out and make this batch of DLC free for everyone and ask the community how to make the next set of DLC work, Just a thought.

 

[H20HYBRID_GT]

So let's just say I want to paint 12 of the new cars each in 5 different colors, i'd only had to pay 95.88$ ..?
Not overprized. At all.
Lmao.


Edit:
Oops, stupid calculator, but thats still a lot of cash...

Nice idea... really!

 

[Menown]

So if I buy this DLC and then my PS3 and/or hard drive decide to die, I have to buy it again as it doesn't show up in my PSN downloads?

Or will PD's server remember my ID and give it back?

Sony? "Reimburse"? Why, they don't know the meaning of the word! Enjoy your free week of PSNPLUS(tm) , free "DEEP SPACE" dynamic menu theme (five different shades of black that change with the time of day!), and a coupon for 10% off your next purchase at the McDonalds in Antarctica.

I must say they were very helpful with me. My old ps3 wasn't working properly anymore and my warranty was long gone. I went to the office here in the netherlands and they told me they couldn't fix it for free anymore since the warranty was gone but I got a €50 return when I sent them the receipt of my new PS3 + a €50 PSN voucher. I had €15 from that voucher left, so free GT DLC for me

Wow. You sir, seem to have some major problems. 👎

Yeah, he's a pissed off consumer that doesn't like to be bent over a barrel!!!

You sir and the iRacing supporters and the universe of xBots have been conditioned into accepting being over charged and nickel & dimed.

How would you feel if you could only play PlayStation games (BluRay & PSN) on YOUR account AND on the PS3 it was installed on? Well, what's to stop Sony from doing this?

When will gamers say "enough is enough"!

M$ can afford to screw over consumers, they have a virtual endless cash flow.

In theory yes not to be bigheaded about it, In practice this is SONY and PD so there's more chance of seeing a flying pink elephant

Well they will have to think of something, Right now id say a good 80-90% of the community is a little cheesed off to say the least, Either that or SONY can start saying goodbye to a great many of its consumers, Want a livery creator on a racing game ? Sure go buy Forza, Want to get things on time ? Sure stay away from PD , All we are doing by buying this extortionate DLC is paying for Mr Kaz's ludicrous racing habit, When he should be sat behind a desk and computer doing research on the market and the history of the automobile, 1st rule of mass media GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT.

You can always not buy the DLC. It's not like they force you to buy it?

 

[TheDabbinDave]

I'm more pissed off that I already own it! It's in my game installation right now!!!

You don't expect to pay to use the power windows in your car, do you? You didn't pay for a separate key to get into your glovebox or trunk, did you?

If the gaming industry was looked at as legitimate, there would have been hearings about unfair business practices ages ago.

 

[vandaliser]

PD made the game. PD made the DLC. And even in the event that PD was somehow forced to release it the way it was without Kaz's knowledge, PD did nothing to make that fact known to consumers despite having to have known themselves since the second Spec II started development.

Why do you care? Aren't you finished with GT anyways?

Yeah you're right. The DLC should be free just because they put it in an update to unlock it later. Guess it cost them nothing to create it and the people there work for free!

>Spa clip<

Pirate. Now GTP and the rest of us are going to get billed for watching that.

 

[Brend]

Doing the 4 Hour roadster enduro in the "TC" mod. Easy victory but the thing is incredibly glorious.


LONG LIVE THE PREMIUM PREMIUMS.

WOW I failed to notice we now had Spa for all the good it is in the game, What are your choices use it online in an open lobby or use it to just drive about on is there any real purpose to it NO frankly, What about a-spec and b-spec integration perhaps you know give us a reason to buy it, People wanted to dress up as The Stig correct me if im wrong but The Stig suit was seen in pre release videos and screenshots years back and they decide you have to pay for it No no no no no bad business ideal PD, What about all the things in the feedback section they are things people want and do we get them, Some perhaps but we either have to pay through the nose or they are so poorly implemented that it's hardly worth the hassle.

A spec/B Spec integration? really? Listen mate, the track is out there. I couldnt care less about integration ****. All i want to do is race on that track both offline and online. And that's all i care about

And about the stig, sigh, the stig is gone. Top gear is Gone. It's with forza now courtesy of MS money.

Oh you can create the stig suit but it's worthless to me anyways. I don't care about meaningless **** like that. I got SPA and that is all that matters to me.

carry on.....

Yea, reload the site. 7,22mb x2 now. Facepalm.

And the millions they got from the initial sales and the $60,000,000 budget went where? Yeah, they're standing in line at the soup kitchen every day...

How do you feel about unlock keys for content on the BluRay disc? Yeah they should get extra for that too.

You do know PD is a business right? Their priority is to make money. So I guess if you were the boss of a company and you had a good year you would stop charging any money from your customers and pay all the salaries from last years profit?

What content was on the disk that I had to pay for after I already paid for the game?

 

[Sprite]

Wow I never knew there was so much hatred for PD and Sony chock full of people who claim to like GT?!? Ahh well.

BTW I couldn't care less if PD or Sony locked out the DLC to one PSN account, I only have one main account, granted if you have a PS3 with multiple accounts for different people then I can see having to pay multiple times is a pain. Bring back the good old days without all the DLC, online, extra features, special editions ect. Just bring back a buggy release and only one profile and seperate memory cards like back in the day, at least then all the whiners would be gone by now and not rearing their ugly heads every few weeks to moan again.

You are not forced to buy the DLC it's not crucial to the game, as for cry babies saying that they already downloaded it but can't use it, the reason PD did this is so if you are online and the host is using Spa you have the data to play alongside for FREE. Jeez get down for the very high horses you are all on.

As for the DLC I just unlocked it all and Spa is great, I've only had a quick look at a few of the new cars and the 125 Kart (to test the new tracks) as for paint chips and suits they will only be used for photo opertunities. I personally like the DLC and will consider the next one too. PD and Sony are companies trying to make money if everything was free then we wouldn't have anything.

 

[Tornado]

Why do you care? Aren't you finished with GT anyways?

Don't you have some Forza thread to get thrown out of?



See, I can make smartass remarks that contribute nothing to the discussion too.







And oh, the video of Spa that you like parading out constantly. That totally invalidates everything in the post you quoted.

 

[TheDabbinDave]

What content was on the disk that I had to pay for after I already paid for the game?

Signature, Collectors editions, preorder content from GsmeStop, Best Buy, or Amazon. You know, the incentives to buy from here or there to get something specific. All of which is already on the disc. Did the same crap for GTPSP, ultimately gave it all to us. Granted, Signature & Collectors editions might have been pressed differently to reflect DLC content, but I doubt it.

Again, you're not paying extra to use your power windows, are you?

 

[-Cheezman-]

This DLC is a slap in the face to GT fans.

But, sheep will gobble it up, which is why DLC makes so much money now. It's even why developers include content on the disc and make you pay extra for it.

 

[ParkourVeyron]

Wow. You sir, seem to have some major problems. 👎

I have major problems because I say NO to Sony's crap? Wow, at least I'm not a robot programmed to shell out every nickel and dime I own to big $$$ entertainment companies that try to sell me something that is already on my HDD! DLC, pah, give me a break, more like ULC! (Unlockable Content)

All we are doing by buying this extortionate DLC is paying for Mr Kaz's ludicrous racing habit, When he should be sat behind a desk and computer doing research on the market and the history of the automobile,

It is sad to know that the sales of this DLC will buy Kaz's next $250,000 car.

1st rule of mass media GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT.

Like a livery editor?

Yeah, he's a pissed off consumer that doesn't like to be bent over a barrel!!!

Yes I am!

How would you feel if you could only play PlayStation games (BluRay & PSN) on YOUR account AND on the PS3 it was installed on? Well, what's to stop Sony from doing this?

That's really scary, the day that happens is the day I go back to the Wii.
