JPN Gran Turismo 5:Prologue Update confirmed!

[Lotrzyna]

I could help you with that racing line but still downloading (I have error every 5milimeters of bar :/). Try to find that kind of option before race or in menu:
レーシングライン

or at least last 3 signs.

 

[tuninghouse]

i can understand why it goes so slow, but why does it drop you out? is it people there is too many people and the server can't handle the traffic?

 

[Whoa91]

16th try, lol most the time it goes to about 20 - 30 % and errors, right now on the 16th try in 5 mins its at about 55 to 60 % hopefully it keeps going. Its been 4 and a half hours tryin this so far. oh well.

 

[Johnhannibal]

Can somebody check out the online events? How many events are listed?
Are the time trials ranked globally? If they are you should check out the F2007 replay at suzuka, pro physics

 

[black300zx]

3 hours trying, keeps getting disconnected and start over. I don't mind it being slow, but why does it keep cutting out? Once connect why not stay connected?

Yep, there it goes again as I type this! so frustrating

 

[unimental]

Almost two hours to update... but oh so worth the wait.

 

[alba]

You know unimental, i had the exact same idea in my head, update, get the f40 and just drive in rounds and just make it scream


GRRR (i tried at least 15 times to update the jp version, still no luck)

 

[kroneage]

Awesome video of the F40 Unimental!! Lovin the sound!

Anyway I'm on only my second try and it's only less than 2 mins from completing... it seemed to go much faster the second time... it seemed to take only a little less than the same amount of time it took me to get only halfway the first time. So I think it resumes... when the DL stopped the first time I went through and resumed through the news option.

"The update can be resumed as indicated below:

- Select News in My Page after starting the game
- Exit the game with the PS button, and restart the game."

I think it means an either/or option... use one way or the other not both. Because like I said, it took me the same amount of time to get nearly the full way the second time as it took for me to get only half way the first time... hope that helps...

ANNND IT"S DONE WOOHOO!!

off to race I wish you guys much luck in your download trials

Almost two hours to update... but oh so worth the wait.

So sexi
Just few more weeks for US release.. just few more weeks.

 

[legoman93]

to anybody who has updated already :

Is there a drift mode in the game , and are all the cars from the Europe version in it ?

thanks !

 

[Tyre King]

Managed to get mine done in a oner, but it took bleeding ages over the wireless connection.

Did exactly what others have done, made sure I had enough dosh for the F40, bought it, and have been razzing it round Suzuka and High-speed ring for the last hour.

What a noise, what a drive, want one!

Can't wait for the PAL / EU disk that Play.com have coming for me, maybe tomorrow. They sent me an e-mail stating that a screw-up on their delivery from Sony/PD had caused a minor delay in dispatching, and offered me £3 off the new GTA game as compensation (WTF? )

Just send it next day delivery instead! Muppet!

If I wanted GTA I would have pre-ordered it first week of January instead of GT5P.

[Kryz11]

Would it be easier for you to pre-order a copy few months back at a store? Just 15 minute for me both ways, no waiting for Delivery, no stupid emails about some speed bumps, and I get the game in 15 minutes Also saving myself few $$$ on delivery.

 

[Tyre King]

Free delivery, £17.99 all-in. Should have arrived on doorstep in the morning, still might?

we'll see what happens

 

[Kryz11]

I remeber I order the Japanese version from China to US, Took them two nights to deliver not one got me really mad.. *sarcastic*

Good luck man
Tell us all about it
I still have 3 weeks of waiting here

 

[Sphinx]

Yep, mine also done now. Sadly I have no credits to buy the goodies due to losing all my saved data a couple of days ago, but it shouldn't take long to get back.

 

[Chronos]

I can't sell my Ferrari 599 Argento Nurburgring, don't know if it was like that before, sure I remember certain colour edition cars were unable to be sold. Got enough cash anyway but don't buy that silver 599 if your planning to sell; lots of other coloured F430 and 599's sold no problem.

What an update!👍

Did an HSR time trial with a different PSN ID, but I won't be adding anymore with this test ID.

 

[eastley]

Is that PAL version? If so you got a lot of money

 

[alba]

I gave up on updating the japanese version, just won't work here and i'll have the pal version in a few hours in front of my door so i'll try my luck with the pal one

 

[moonman79]

just downloaded the update in all of 30 minuets!!!!I cant understand why your updates are taking so long?

 

[jacky622]

This is GT fans in hong kong,nice to meet you guys
I just finished update for JPN ver
got many new cars and 1 new track
its not hard to update from here, it took around 1.5 hrs for me last night

 

[black300zx]

show off! You're in Japan so of course you don't have an issue. I gave up 4 hours later here in the US.

 

[eastley]

I did what was instructed, crank up the game, start the update. When it fails, just go to the main menu bit and hover over the "ONLINE" selection, then press the middle PS button and exit. Re load up the game and continue downloading, it seems to store what ever you download and I only got like 1/4 of the way through after about 3-4 goes but due to previous attempts It had completed.

 

[skingg]

This is easily the single best free patch update to any demos. Ever. Wait, how many demos have updates again?!

 

[jgda9rs]

i dont think the jp version will get anything. i've been trying and i got nothing.

 

[saviboy]

show off! You're in Japan so of course you don't have an issue. I gave up 4 hours later here in the US.

Just finished updating in an hour from Miami

[maskrider]

When I woke up, it is updated, ha ha !

That's all for the moment.

 

[DuoWing]

Is the drift trial in? Do you have to unlock it or something?

 

[juniordee]

Drift trial is unlocked from the start

 

[kingcars]

I love the update...it really breathes new life into the game. I'm glad I went ahead and bought 1 of each car a while back; now I can just focus on saving up for the added cars. I already have the F40, Ford GT LM, and Art Morrison Vette. Gonna get the tuned Z06 next.
