Not a very happy GT5er at the moment. Yesterday, I cashed in a 2010 ticket I had traded, and was delighted when it gave me one of the Joey Logano Gamestop Nascars. Especially since I thought they were available as dlc in the us version only. Now today I've fired GT5 up again and I've just noticed that it has mysteriously vanished from my garage. Anybody got any suggestions on how I find it and more importantly, get it back.

You can't.

Been covered before.
 
Sorry. I did look through the first 5 pages to see if there were any similar topics. But nothing grabbed my attention. So basically, because of a game glitch. I've been robbed of my 2010 ticket. Son Of A Female Dog! This game winds me up badly sometimes.
 
Someone correct me if I'm wrong... but from what I understand that car is a PRE-ORDER ONLY car. When you pre-order the game you go to the Playstation Store and type in a key that comes with the NTSC version of the disc, all your downloading from the PSN Store is an encrypted file that tells your GT5 game save that you have pre-ordered the game and it gives you that car.
Obtaining the Joey Logano Gamestop Nascar in ANY other way will result in what happened to you.
 
I thought it was a dlc only car. Hence why I was surprised and delighted to get one from a 2010 ticket. If I'm genuinely not allowed to have that car then I can accept that. I'm just really annoyed that it cost me my 2010 ticket to find out that the only reason I got it in the first place must have been a glitch.
 
To be honest, you shouldn't even be able to obtain a 2010 ticket.

If you set the car to online before you restarted GT5 though, it may not disappear.

You can't share DLC cars, so it probably won't let you.

Stop me if I'm wrong, but isn't the only way to get a 2010 ticket through an exploit? I'm not sure how much room you have to complain about a glitch when the reason it affected you is because you used an exploit.

Yes you are correct.
 
I traded for the ticket legitimately. Where the guy I traded with got it from. I have no idea. But I got it fairly at my end.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but aren't the "year" tickets for birthdays? For example, I got a 1959 ticket when I logged on on my birthday.

The only way someone had a 2010 ticket to trade was by registering a PlayStation account with a 2010 birthday, which would make the fictitious account holder just over a year old. This may not be an exploit as such, but it is not an honest way of obtaining the ticket.

So, long story slightly longer, you traded for a ticket that you should have known was dodgy, and didn't get to keep the shiny toy it gave you...not a lot of sympathy here.

That's alot like saying, "Sorry, Officer, the guy I bought the gun from didn't tell me he obtained it illegally." If its a 2010 ticket its illegal to have it period, how you obtained it doesn't matter.

I finished the NASCAR event earlier this week. I'm doing endurance races now then I'll do the fgt (3.5 hrs left). Its all I have left of a spec except for the last endurance races. The read...try...post thread is where I plan to start on my setup.

No need for that in this thread. Just talk about a vanishing Stockcar.
 
I apologize for the digression. My point is this: if the ticket was obtained illegally (even if he didn't think of it as illegal) then there is no room to complain about the car vanishing. If the ticket is a glitch then the car vanishing is not a glitch.

I got the point, but it doesn't matter how he got the ticket.
And he is allowed to complain, most of the people on this forum do.
