Alrighty let me explain it to you in plain English. Those continuous updates were to fix bugs that should not have been there, not add content...those Seasonal Events, sorry but they're not new content either (just races to earn more money and crap). The suits and helmets? They should've been there from the start anyway.
So as for wanting DLC, we want new content in the form of cars and tracks free or otherwise. Understand?

Fall 2011 will be the one of the most packed gaming seasons in my life...
Already had Battlefield 3 and Skyrim planned. Not of my habit as I usually don't buy new games within a couple of weeks, but now GT5 spec II + DLC is thrown into the mix as well.
Better start making room on my HDD...

Considering this is Spec 2.0 I do hope that PD have implemented a mode selection at the main menu GT Enthusiast and GT Pro and you get where I am going with this. Enthusiast will be GT A Spec mode how it is right now no real penalties for anything and Pro mode will have all the penalties on by default and you can tailor them back to a limit. I sure hope they fixed that AI and made them drive like us humans who drive without fear in the game anyway. AI cars will now match our car in PP for races, no more 5 lap catch me if you can races with silly spacing. Grid starting for all races(rolling as option), a much better tune shop keep tuning and car modding in one damn place, I don't want to have to switch areas to do either and make the oil change effortless please, no point to those useless animations for anything. Focus on racing, we can skip the animations or at least turn them off completely(car acquisition screen too). Stream line everything, when purchasing parts a check list would be easier to traverse than these pretty screens of non moving parts. How about more options for the RM, like multiple liveries for each and more RM for cars that should have them by now.
While they are at it I sure hope that we can modulate the sensitivity of our wheels, including the pedals for some real customization of control. The DS3 triggers need sensitivity settings as well, why not? Cars should have general class separation, so you can group them by class, engine size and what type of car. Online should also get more restrictions that we can use to make races a little more tightly controlled.
Sense of speed should be increased a few notches to be a little more immersive as the X2010 is the only car you get that holy crap that's fast feeling. The F1's should be just a few clicks below that car and then the rest of the power house motors only a few more beneath those, lord knows that 1000hp cars launch and accelerate with ferocious velocity so far it's pretty ho hum in that department and you only notice high speed jitter on La Sarthe. Here's hoping at least a few things change for the better in Spec 2.0, DLC should be more tracks first and foremost then perhaps new cars. Screw updating standards to premium that's a waste this point in the game, just brand spankin new rides like the Veyron SS and Audi R8 GT. Save the standard upgrades for GT6 when you can have the entire roster all premium, focus on new not old. Where is my Motegi?

totally agree. i hate the DLC charges. we pay enough for games as it is. now they want even more money from us if we want to use the game fully. this is not on for sure

This is great news, I think I remember calling a spec 2.0 update for release later this year some months ago.

You could argue the cars should be there from the start as well. I'd rather pay for new content then have no new content. PD has families to feed as well, I'm sure it will be priced reasonable. If it is even priced at all. We are all just speculating.

I've just thought about something , about making standard cars to premium
there is nissan skyline r34 spec v I & spec v II , and soo on
it is waste of time making them premium isnt it ?

Exactly, and they only get away with it because people pay for it. Not only that, but I already read people wanting it...
Many game manufacturers do suck. They make DLCs available after one or two days after the game release... 👎 For example, PD could only have released the 500 cars and then offer the other half in an expensive DLC...
Good business for them, but I'm not a fool. I stopped buying certain games/cds because of that. For example, I bought a Linkin Park CD, and a week later, the same CD, same price, with an extra song. Never got another LP CD again.
I was happy about PD not be doing this kind of business until now.

I would not do extra content. Correct bugs, not more. If I was PD, you would only get extra content in GT6.Start your own game maker and hand out free extra content! See how long you last
The problem here is how GT5 was rushed and is lacking... specially the A-spec races in which they did not even bothered to make car entry restrictions...
