Nordschleife in Arcade Mode

[riotkid]

Hello Guys,

im new to GT5 and i have 2 Q. Allright... yesterday i installed it, then it updated itself for some hours. then it asked me if i wanna install more data from the disk and i agreed... this took an additional hour at least. After that i started the game and wanted to race the Nordschleife in Arcade Mode, but it wasnt there so i was pissed. Then i started Career Mode to see if there is some practise or test drive mode, but the track wasnt there. ffs i thought and started arcade mode again to try some other track and a message appeared telling me something about i got the Nordschleife unlocked or as a gift, like someoe read my mind. it was all Versions and i as happy.
Today i made a new PSN Account just for GT5 and i started it but the Nordschleife was missing like before. So i did exactly the same but i dont get it anymore. So cud u pls tell me how to get the Nordschleife in Arcade Mode and tell me why i got it at first time?
And another thing is... in preferences u can choose to install content from the disk like i did when i installed GT5 the first time. So i wondered if i have to do that again since i made a new Account. I tried it again and it started telling me i need additional 8gb plus 1 hour install. This confuses me and i already thought about deleting everything of GT5 from the PS3 and do a completet new install but it will take at least 4 hours and i wanna play it=).
so can u explain me if the stuff in the preferences is the same stuff u install when u first getting asked if u wanna install additional content from the disk on first start of GT5?
And does anyboy know a thread which explains the 3D settings and where ppl share their opinions about those settings.
thx in advance and keep urself alive

You have to get Bronze in all of the AMG Special events to unlock Nurburgring and as for the data installation, that is in the game data not the game save so you are fine there.

Also don't use textspeak as it is against the AUP

First, a quick reminder:

You will not use “textspeak” (“r”, “u”, “plz”, etc.) in your messages. Decent grammar is expected at all times, including proper usage of capital letters.

Second, I believe you have to unlock the Nurburgring to be able to use it in Arcade mode, as you found out. If you create a new account, you'll have to do it all over again.

Third, you shouldn't have to download everything for a second account. (I don't think)

Ok i am sorry for the textspeak i try to avoid it in future.
For the Nordschleife: Why did i get it on my first Account as a gift? I didn't finish any event, that's kinda weird.
And about the data installation it still confuses me: i already installed the data, but when i choose it in preferences it wants to install it again. it doesn't tell me
it's already installed, so i wonder if its the same or something additional. or does it install the same data over and over again everytime you choose it?
thank you
