What pack do I need to download from the playstation store in order to get special stage route x? I'm having trouble finding it. Is it no longer available?
 
No, it's due to the store being updated and things getting lost.

Somebody on here spoke to Sony (there is a another thread on the tracks) and was told that if the tracks were not back up by now, they may be lost forever in the US Store. The reason given to the member was licensing issues.

If this isn't true I am happy to be corrected, but either way special stage route x should be there.

I'll check the US store now though.

I just got off the phone with Sony and they said the Course Packs are currently unavailable at this time in the US. Sony said to check your store periodically throughout the day on Tuesday November 6th as the store updates and the add-ons might appear. If the add-ons do not appear on Tuesday, they may be permanently gone due to Licensing Agreements, Obligations, Contracts, and so on and so on, Sony says.

EDIT
Whatever the real reason is, it is not in the US store.

Yea ^^^, I tried finding SSR X yesterday. And the excuse Sony gave is just to tell us something. Customer Service is almost always ignorant on what they need to know.
 
Ya... I am having the same problem (the forum before yours lol).... I cant find the speed test (with the special stage route x)
 
I've never understood why it is so hard to find GT5 DLC on the PSN store!
When it comes out, unless its one of the big pic advertised ones that change every 3 secs its so hard to find!

Go to racing - not there.
Go to Game add ons - not there.
Search GT5 - NO match
Search Gran Turismo 5 - 3 cars from GTPSP appear!

WTF!

This is the old store btw in UK, haven't tried new one, thats looks a big mess to me!
 
In the same boat. Wanting to download all the tracks and all I see is 10 Add-Ons (car and paint packs) and 26 videos. I searched Gran Turismo 5 to get these. Is there a better phrase or word to search to get to the tracks?
 
I sent a note over to PS Store support yesterday asking about it. Hopefully they will reply with something better than "check the updates next Tuesday"...
 
Yeah, I just recently put some funds in my account and I know pre-patch of the store update all the add-ons for GT5 were there. Now all the Course packs are gone post patch. Now that I have funds I cant get the course packs... Just my luck! Just keep calling Sony and let them know.
 
Yeah this new Store layout is pretty bad! It's reminiscent of Metro (Windows 8 design). Everything is kinda all over the place. It's like they designed it for a tablet, which Metro is kinda made for, even though no one will ever be going on the PS Store through a tablet.

Also, there is a a statement in the DLC download area in the main menu of GT5 that states that they have the right to remove any and all DLC at any time permanently. But I HIGHLY doubt this is the case. Just a screw up on Sony's part.

👍 everything
 
i want to buy special stage route x but cant find the course pack. i would like to top speed run but im unable to find the pack.


It isn't on the US store. It is in the EU store. If you are US there is no word on when it will be back up. People have been told to try on tuesday when the store gets updated.
 
There are alternatives for U.S. customers. http://www.gamestop.com/browse?nav=16k-gran+turismo+5

In the link above the "Complete Pack" is a decent deal.

Also, buying either the $20 U.S. XL version or the European Academy Edition of the game is probably the best deal.

The XL version includes a "Voucher good for over $20 worth of DLC content, including the Racing Car Pack, Car Pack 2, Course Pack, Racing Gear Pack, and Paint Pack."

Academy version info. http://eu.gran-turismo.com/gb/products/gt5ae/
 
Man, I come here to ask the exact same question, but it seems that it was already answered. Thanks a lot Sony.
 
Has anyone tried what bs13 pointed out? It's the only way we can know for sure if they were taken out or forgotten about. I'm thinking that they really were taken out.

If you're asking about the complete pack at gamestop it worked for me when I bought it between July and August. Have no idea if it or the other DLC they sell still works. All they do is email you the code that you enter in the playstation store.

ya, it works. I bought spa last week at gamestop.com. However, they dont have twin ring, which is what I really want
 
Darn, I went in PS store yesterday..
It was first time since a while and I must say its a mess.
No wonder Sony is in the red. If you guys cant find DLC, theres someone at sony who is doing a lame job.
The way they sorted things out is without any logic.
 
Now that I wanted to buy Spa, I can't.
