Quick question hope I get a quick reply I'm setting up some accounts and was going to setup 2011 to get a ticket does anyone know if it gives a 2011 car or does it knock back to 10?
 
I set up up an account with 2911 a couple of months ago and got a 2010 ticket.

BTW If you want birthday tickets from 2003 and later, you'll need to set the sub accounts up for the Hong Kong region. You'll also need at least 2 Hong Kong master accounts because the PSN limits the number of sub accounts that can be linked to one master account.
 
An X1. It isn't even called that. It's an X2010 so the name is a clue to it's year of manufacture. :dopey:
 
There's no X1 in this game.

If you were born in 2011 you wouldn't have had a birthday yet to get the ticket gift from, try again in 12 months ;)

Get your facts right. Until January the X2010 was called RedBull X1, then PD changed the name. However it can't be obtained through a birthday ticket, at least I haven't managed it within 4 hours of trying.
 
I have got my facts right, don't speak down to me like i'm some kind of idiot. I've owned the game since day 1 so i am perfectly aware of it's original name. The fact you say it was changed in January should reinforce to you that it has been an X2010 for a greater span than when it was titled X1 so just how much time do people need to get the name right of the most discussed car on the whole forum ?

I didn't intent to speak down on you, however you can be sure there are people who have not connected their ps3 to the internet, they still have it called X1. So it's not far sighted if you say there is no x1 in GT5 because there are GT5 games which still say it's a X1, not an X2010. But no matter what you call it, it can't be obtained through a b-day ticket. At least from what I know out of personal experience and from this forum.

The fact that the person who said 'X1' has a PSN ID states to me that they are connected online with GT5 and should know by now that it's called an X2010 !
 
I've yet to see anyone who said x1 and others did not know what they were talking about. This is what PD called it, cut the people who have other things on their mind besides conforming to PD's not so new nomenclature some slack.

That BMW in the photo above is slick...wouldn't mind owning that car in real life.

Wrightspeed X1. Electric version of ariel atom.

These should all sue BMW for using their name. The Wrightspeed should be in GT with a normal Atom as well!

I see nothing in GT5 or anything with any affilialation to RedBull. ;)
 
Some people have nothing better to do than troll threads and correct people. X1,X2010,Redbull...etc. we all know what you mean, those other X1 items aren't even in the game so why would they add to the confusion. Why give people such a hard time.:grumpy:
 
Skip the confusion and call it by the name it has in the game, RedBull X2010. That's easy enough, isn't it?
 
I think we should follow Jordan's guide to the question and answer section:

With the release of every GT game, our community is full of thousands of people with lots of general questions about pretty much everything. In the past, this irritated our veterans and often left new users confused and uninformed. This time, though, I'm dedicating an entire forum to all of your questions about Gran Turismo 5. No matter how experienced you are with the game, you are welcome to ask about anything you'd like to know more about.

Please title your thread as a question so it will be easy for others to know what you're asking. Do not be rude to anyone who asks a question you feel is obvious or stupid - if you don't want to help them, don't harass them or complain - just move along. Hopefully, we will be able to create a deep and interactive archive of information about the game that we all will be able to draw upon. Enjoy, guys!
 
I think it's helpful to call a car by its proper name. It makes things less confusing for everyone involved. :)

Absolutely. Unless, of course, there was a big huha about the X1, and it was all about X1, X1, X1. I think if that kind of thing sticks in people's minds, it's just fair enough to cut them some slack. My opinion.

After all, if it's the X2010, and the X1 is a BMW (or something else even), what exactly are they talking about here:

https://www.gtplanet.net/building-the-red-bull-x1-prototype-behind-the-scenes/

Edit: And yes, I know that's an old article. That's not the point. The point is that I need to equate Red Bull X2010 with Red Bull X1 in order for this article to make any sense. So it's not like we can just forget about the fact that the car was actually called X1 until not too long ago. It'll pretty much remain required to never forget, exactly because of the historic references.

So has anyone actually tried to find out if you can get a 2011 ticket?

You'd have to make an account for a birthday which hasn't happened yet. Is it really worth it to try that for a game which has no obtainable 2011 cars? Seriously, what is the ultimate goal?
 
This is a bit of a stupid thing to argue about in fairness and it's arguments like this that get's people who sit and write on forums a bad name! Why not just let him call i whatever he likes? Have you never seen a local bar/shop/stadium to have it's name changed only for locals to still call it the old one?
 
There's no 2011 cars in the game, so instead it gets turned into a 2010 ticket. So now you can stop trying to use exploits telling PSN that you're four months old and that you somehow, as a newborn, purchased GT5 in a store.
